Great post by Vodkapundit about the city, its demise, and the inherent elements of New Orleans that are contributing to its destruction.
After my one semester at Tulane, I thought New Orleans’ motto should have been, “A city where you can get away with murder, as long as it’s not a white guy.”
That said, it was also my favorite city to visit in America.
In early 2003, when I was thinking of bailing on the northeast, the only strategy I could come up with was getting all of my money together, moving down to New Orleans, and drinking for a year straight.
