Friend went out there today to get some drone footage of Lee. This is just a small excerpt.

that was the point. B&G is operating the crane
you dont know who was operating the crane....it may have been B&G's crane but that doesnt mean it came with an operator....the city may have an crane operator that's on payroll.

Before the Jefferson Davis statute was removed on the UT Austin campus, liberals were saying that it was something that belongs in a museum instead.
Now that it's in a museum, liberals are saying that it should have all the lights turned off around it and sit in the dark (whatever). I shite you not, this was a news story this week.
Remember this, my fellow Americans: They want it all removed and it's 100 percent about revenge.

I really hope no one gets injured tonight. It sounds like this is going to be very poorly planned if at all.
That said it would be hilarious to watch something drastically fail.

Big difference between colonization and sending them down to banana plantations already owned. They explain that pretty well.
Shipping a group of people who's only skill is working the land, to a place where the only work they could do is work on the plantations (not as slaves, as "free men") is defacto sending them to work on plantations.
If you send a bunch of flaming gay guys to Syria today they would all get brutally murdered. Just because you say "I'm colonizing them there in their own communities" doesn't change that.
Just because he didn't explicitly say he wanted to send them to work on the sugar plantations and banana plantations doesn't change the fact that's exactly where they would end up...
All you need to do is look at what the vast majority of former slaves did in the south.... Remain working for their former masters... Just getting paid when they used to not.

I have never seen a crane company let anyone use their equipment without having their operator run the crane. No insurance company would write them a GL policy to lease that piece of equipment out.

No, you can mark me down as never spending another dime in Nola after my flight. I don't care if LSU is in a national title game in Nola.

TRIBECA, Manhattan (WABC) -- The crane accident earlier this year that killed a passerby and seriously injured two others in Lower Manhattan was caused by operator error, Eyewitness News Investigators have exclusively learned.
It was the worst crane accident in New York City in years. The huge boom crashed down across two city blocks in TriBeCa in February.
At first, high winds were blamed. But The Investigators obtained documents show that the crane operator made mistakes when lowering the boom.
The Department of Labor has hit the operator, Galasso Trucking and Rigging with two serious violations blaming the company for "not having any procedure or policy... regarding wind, ice and snow." Another violation specifically faults the operator saying," manufacturers procedures were not followed because the boom angle was lowered below 75 degrees."

A crane towering over a high-rise construction site on the East Side of Manhattan collapsed in a roar of rending steel Saturday afternoon, raining death and destruction across a city block as it slashed down on an apartment building, broke into sections, crushed a town house and cut away a tenement facade.
At least four people were killed and more than a dozen others were injured, and damage was expected to run into the millions of dollars in what the authorities called one of the city’s worst accidents — a calamity that turned a neighborhood near the United Nations into a zone of panic, pulverized buildings, wailing sirens, evacuations, searches in the rubble and covered bodies in the streets.
Many residents of the neighborhood around the site of the collapse — 51st Street between Second and First Avenues — said they had been worried for months about the possibility of a collapse, calling the crane, looming higher each week, a menace, particularly because so many residential buildings were being put up in the area with remarkable speed: several floors a week at times.

Don't y'all get it?
He's Mitch Freaking Landrieu. TAKE 'EM DOWN!!!
Plan? TAKE 'EM DOWN.
Gotta get 'em DOWN before any pesky, courts rule against him, again. Or Lord forbid the Legislature pass a law which John Bel won't sign or veto, but the ol' pocket veto...let it sit on his desk until it dies.
TAKE 'EM DOWN!
He hasn't abided by ANY safeguards legal or otherwise, up to this point. You expect him to have a plan?

Yes. Two crane accidents. One didn't follow manufacturers procedures the other I'm not sure of the root cause. Sounds like one may have had a plan it was just shite, or not followed
That still leaves me with the question. What legally requires this to need a PE stamped?
I am ignorant to some La laws on lifts, but I am reaching at what requires the PE stamp.

It happens all the time in industrial construction but the operator has to have the proper certs for that weight class crane to operate it.
I doubt the previous operators on the earlier monument removals were properly certified.

Private contractors working on a City contract, P.O., etc. are most certainly subject to OSHA and permitting requirements. It's nearly impossible to get a demo or building permit for anything, anywhere in the City without going through one or more of the required neighborhood participation process (public notice; meetings & public comment), conservation district committee review/approval, historic district landmark committee review/approval, design advisory committee review/approval, etc. These can take months.
Unless the council ordinance approving the statue removal already excused some or all of permit requirements, they wouldn't be able to even print up a last minute permit as they don't have in hand the reviews and approvals needed to release a permit.
