Tens of thousands
Unemployment is at some of the lowest points in history. Gig economy and WFH have offered opportunities that didn't exist in the past. Not to mention the service industry offering benefits and a safety net that didn't exist in the past. Stack on top of that a higher percentage of minority and lower income students making it to higher education than at any other time in history.
Society has shifted away from person to person interactions. It isn't just your life it is every life. You don't have to get your weed on a street corner you can text your plug and they deliver or have a pickup.

quote:NO has a population of 326,000 just in the city property. 15,000 is not far fetched. You're telling me that you dont believe it's possible that there are 15,000 people breaking the law in NO that have a violent history? You realize people get away with most of their acts, right? This shooter will undoubtedly have a history of violence that, had real punishment occurred, would have had him off the streets.

I'm not certain your second paragraph is anything but guesses and correlation.

They probably know exactly who the shooter is and he’s the 19 year old.

Not walking around avoiding conviction? Your assuming each of those 15000 are responsible for one violent crime and managed to avoid capture/conviction. That would mean no criminal caught or convicted for 8 years or more.
Math just ain't mathing

She's a democrat and will be bound by the same chains that prevent democrats from fixing urban issues. She will be better than the last 2 but that's like saying Gerry DiNardo was better than Curely and Archer - NOLA needs Nick Saban.
That’s a big improvement though and a step in the right direction. I’m saying someone mildly competent, not actively committing fraud or using the office only for personal gain, and with some intent to do better for the entire city rather than a distinct population within the city should be significantly better. I don’t think this mayor is signaling that she will do a bunch of virtue signaling or catering to a certain population of NOLA the way the past two mayors have. The fact she’s come in hard on cutting budget is a big step in the right direction
She may not have been the ideal candidate, but she’s playing a moderate role much better than the previous two mayors

quote:I didn't say avoiding conviction. I did suggest they get time served and released. There are thousands of crimes not reported. If someone has a RAP sheet with 10 charges over the years on it, you can bet with confidence they engaged in at least double that number of crimes that weren't reported or they didn't get caught. I've seen RAP sheets of people with 30 plus charges who had been on the street, and maybe one conviction that was the result of pleading it down.

So you are saying there are unsolved crimes.
Yes. That is true everywhere. Even where you live.

The Mob isn't the mob of the old days. They dont have the same power. Just look at Sammy the Bull, there is no way back in the day he would still be walking around. The golden days of the Mob has been over for quite some time now.

The Feds summed up the New Orleans mob 30 years ago and basically said they were a joke. All of them had office jobs and lost their money making ventures.
Not even worth monitoring any longer.

Bring in the Guard. Where is Jeff Landry and all his big talk.
Brute force and fear is needed for animalistic behavior. And, judges that are continually soft on crime and get re-elected.

Im not defending Moreno because she isn't going to be any better, but a mayor can't completely stop crime in 5 days. Look at Sid in EBR, he's doing work but it's slow progress.
