Go look at a crime map, literally it's wide spread and everywhere. Me and my business partner were coming back from a meeting at Canal Place. While waiting in traffic at a light on canal, there was a shooting across the neutral ground from us. Our windows were down and we heard the shots. |

Used to go to NO all the time until the one time.
We were on Canal and me and my 4 other white buddies watched a dude park his car on Canal, run over to a bus stop and shoot a dude 3 times at the bus stop. He jumped back in his car and drove off. We got the plate number and description. We went a few blocks and found some NOPD officers and told them we had info about the shooting.

Sounds like Dejaun Paul and his team might have been selling fake drugs to tourists. An old trick to make money and see how much more money a victim has in their pockets before chasing them down and robbing them afterward. Most likely had something metal rolled up in has hand when he struck the victim.

We do a lot of 2 or 3 or 4 on one fighting in the dojo. What you quickly realize as an attacker is the other attackers get in your way. As the defender, you can use one attacker to block the others. It isn't obvious/intuitive until you actually do that type of training. #1 thing to remember is not being in those places in the first place. What style? Notice how they didn't fight they grabbed and held. Remember that when you grab someone, you are also anchoring yourself and limit your own mobility. Ideally, I want to strike someone before they strike me. Shift your body to avoid/parry any blows, and simultaneously hit them. I study Russian Systema which blends traditional Russian (Sambo, etc) and Asian styles but in a very easy to learn format that stresses four key points: 1) Breathing 2) Relaxation 3) Posture 4) Continuous movement [youtube]https://youtu.be/a27rN8Dy3nw[/youtube] |

My day job industry is having our last New Orleans convention this year. Apparently several people got jacked the last time we were there. Promoters said not going back after the contract is completed. I never heard the exact details of who or what happened to others just a couple of things happened and we are not going back after this year. I do know a friend had a lawyer friend get really drunk in NOLA got into some kind of altercation with the husband of a local judge and they were out for blood on him the last I heard. |

Those gentlemen were raised a good bit different from most people you are likely to know. They clearly have practice working together and have no compunction dishing out violence.

I lived there for nine years, starting in the late 80s, when it was the murder capital of the US. I figured Katrina had flushed all the bad shit out, but obviously not.
I went there in March for a concert with my GF. I'm surprised nothing happened to us, we walked from the Hyatt Regency to the Smoothie King Center for the concert. Only a couple blocks, but in that town, probably not the smartest thing I've ever done. I won't be going back anytime soon. LC |

Went there to go to a great restaurant near City Park a couple weeks ago. Apparently, the locals seized control of two city blocks complete with no less than 100 quads/dirt bikes/etc. hauling ass down public roads. Ended up breaking a few laws in order to get the fuck out of the area and probably won't be back for a while. A Glock 19 wouldn't have helped at all. Something belt fed would've been more suitable.

I was there last week. I like going to Nola. I'll go again soon. I usually walk from the french quarter to the superdome area at night where the Hyatt is. I'm never drunk and try to project myself as someone that is ready to fight just for the hell of it. Just lucky so far.

Someone needs to post a link the street robberies and you thread. Something very similar almost happened to me a few years back. The three guys (fourth guy stayed in the car driving by) ran up on me and put me on the ground. Didn't hit me or anything, but one did hold a revolver to the back of my head while the others emptied my pockets. I was walking a couple blocks unarmed since I had been in a bar. Changed my views on the efficacy of those laws. They are all in prison now, but it could have been real bad for me. |

I'd rather walk in San Francisco's Tenderloin at 3:00 AM than walk in the tourist spots of NOLA after dark.

What's so surprising about that? New Orleans has always been a hell hole. Between the gang bangers, thugs, cutthroats, and corrupt police and politicians I'm mystified why anyone would go there willingly. I've been there twice on business and didn't feel safe even carrying my duty weapon. A few years ago a DEA Supervisor was robbed and killed there while attending a conference. I've driven to Florida on vacation a coupe of times from Texas and always avoid New Orleans. I still remember the scumbags that were relocated to Texas after Hurricane Katrina. Is no one else aware of the scum that infests New Orleans? Yeah, yeah, there are decent people there too. Just like there are in Chicago and Mogadishu, but, I don't go there either. |
