New Orleans was a brewing center in the late nineteenth century and continuing into the 20th century. Regal Beer, Jax Beer, Dixie Beer and Falstaff were big. Lots of European/German immigrants fueled the brewing industry in the last quarter of the nineteenth century.
Dixie Beer was the only remai...

re: Somebody please explain Landry's "school choice" plan to me like I'm 5.

What value do we citizens receive for the funds the State spends now? Zero.
Better to give that money to parents than be wasted by the bureaucracy of Louisiana.
If we're good with Alabama, Texas and Florida passing up Louisiana educationally, then why bother funding public education at all? Th...

If anyone in this thread can tell us the current size of the State of Louisiana budget (i.e. total annual spending), you'll realize $500 million or so isn't even a drop in the bucket.
If Louisiana spends $35 BILLION per year (I'm sure it's higher than that in 2024, fiscal YE 2023 is an acceptabl...

If the circumstances are deemed legal, what is the basis for a civil suit? What duty does a citizen owe to an attacker?

You can't logically have the same scenario when a law abiding citizen is defending himself, but if he opts to pay $125 for the silly CCW, he gets civil immunity. Under the exact same circumstances but he doesn't pay the CCW toll, he doesn'...

What does "full" reciprocity" mean? This is an honest question.
If one reads the laws, reciprocity isn't relevant with constitutional carry. You...

Reciprocity doesn't matter anymore with [i]permitless[/i] carry.
If you read the text of the law SB1, instead of the headline from the liberal newspaper, SB1 applies to "law-abiding citizens" and does not say "residents", just like the permitless carry laws in every other state.
