God forbid you leave your garage open in Lakeview at 830am, because some shitbag driving in the alleys will plunder everything he can find. The good news is that if he's caught, his bond will be set lower than the amount he got from selling my drills. #NewOrleans #NOLA

Thanks to @NOPDNews and @LAStatePolice for ignoring the bizarre politicization of public safety which occurred over the past several years and cracking down. Everyone needs to remember how it was and push hard against the inevitable calls to set felons free.

👏 “What we've seen over the last four months is a 30% increase in felony arrests.” @NOPDNews @LAStatePolice Felony arrests go up, violent crime goes down. @MetroCrimeNOLA reminds us this is not a coincidence. 📰 NOPD making more arrests as crime falls

Fixing streetlights is "a complex issue" only in this disastrous place. Add it to the list of basic municipal functions the administration cannot execute. Like @jigiarrusso said on radio, "it's hard" can't be an excuse for not doing these routine things.

Did Ya Know 57% of Louisiana incarcerated people are serving over 10 years. If you knocked one year off each of their sentences, you could hire a full-time teacher. Serving 45 years instead of 50 could afford 5 teachers. #lalege #FiscalCrisis
