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

[Mr. Blue Sky]

I just happen to know someone who owns a pest control company that does a good bit of work down there. Yeah, it’s a losing battle, but they try…

I stopped eating at Coop’s after one crawled over my jambalaya as i was trying to eat it .


Radosta’s in the OM on the other hand, one time i was there and there was the giganticest dead cockroach you ever saw laying on the floor right in front of the counter where you order.. but i like their hot sausage poboy so much, i still ordered the damn thing… but i digest .

Then there's the ROUS's.

Husband saw a rat running across the street in a live video earlier.
When the rats are scared you know it's bad.

Long as I'm not consciously eating an insect, dead or alive, there is a certain amount of out of sight, out of mind you need to employ in order to eat in NOLA.

ETA: And that's whether it's a hole in the wall place on up to you name it.

OMG, I wish I had seen that. But I do know that ROUS's do, in fact, exist in NOLA from first hand visual and aural evidence. I'm looking at my chihuahua right now. I would say it's comparable.

WDSU talking to Councilman Oliver Thomas indicating he's spoken to the 2 police officers who were shot. Said conscious, up and about, family members there.

It should be automatically expected that holes in walls will have unwanted guests while at the same time having the best food.

Picture of white Ford F-150 crashed. Looks fairly new. Shortbed. 4 bullet holes in back window. Can read almost the entire plate if zoom in.

That’s what the mayor said.. im not sure the exact definition of terrorism these days, but i guess if one guy acting alone is terrorism, then yeah .








Many many MANY things .

They recently labeled a person who shot another in New York a terrorist. Everything is terrorism now.

9 oit of 10 times? What NOLA monster city have created in your mind? Sir, can you show me a story of someone driving drunk in New Orleans plowing through pedestrians then getting out and shooting while there's an explosive device in the vehicle?

For the record, drunk drivers kill pedestrians in every city, not just New Orleans.

I-20 is still closed in Mesquite Texas after a drunk driver slammed into 4 people changing a tire killing them all...

Is that a flag pole on the back of the truck?

True but they're also saying this guy was in full body armor. That it was not a "body" kill and he was shooting cops with an AK. So we can enter that circular debate as well.

Man I'm getting an earful on Reddit.

I'm thinking this bollard system is going to become a heavy topic.

Looks like it.

Too early to speculate, but there’s definitely a certain demographic that drives an F150 with Texas plates and a flag flying from the back of it.

Edit: as a matter of fact, it looks like someone (driver or otherwise) put that jacket over the flag specifically to hide what was on the banner. You can clearly see the eye loop of a flag under the jacket.
