Vehicle plows into crowd on Bourbon St., with 14 fatalities

Mr. Sparkle said

Basically the city has not been doing any of the usual pre-Super Bowl prep that any normal city would be doing in the 3-4 years leading up to the game because we have an absentee mayor. Once Landry won he got together with Cantrell and they agreed to hand all the preparations over to Michael Hecht with GNO Inc, who has been spearheading all the various road and other projects - trying to fit 5 years of work into less than 1. This is just another example.

Admittedly, I don't follow Louisiana politics that much since I don't live there and tend to try to keep focused on my own corrupt mayor and governor .... but during the press conferences both yesterday and today, Latoya kept looking Landry in the eye and repeatedly thanked him. It made me uncomfortable and I was like "are they secret lovers? Is she kissing his arse but really hates him? What is going on here???"

Needless to say, these exchanges made me cringe.
