I'd rather my own son see me die on my feet as a free man, than watch him go, broken, into slavery.

Where the hell are they getting the idea that Louisiana has the second highest number of gun related deaths? How are they cooking those numbers? Are they counting the animals killed during hunting seasons?

Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

New Orleans was at one time ranked the #1 murder capitol of the US.

Even the FBI says not to use their stats for "ranking".

NO has always been sketchy to my knowledge, but there's a lot of misrepresentation going on.

Most of my "coonass" friends don't consider "Nawlins" a true part of Loose-ey-anna.
