It was a dump and a tourist trap to begin with. Now, despite a large drop in population since Hurricane Katrina, people still there are killing each other at a forty percent greater rate than they did before. So convenient to blame racism, the feds, Bush the Younger, etc. But local and state corruption prevented adequate flood protection in the first place, and an adequate response after nature sent the storm. The feds have spent $127 billion of our money on the Gulf Region. It’s time to let the alligators have sin city.
