Hmmm, I'd like to see the crime statistics before and after this shortage.

Is this just political theater or is this guy planning to recruit brownshirts into the police force?

This is somehow reminiscent of how the nazis came to power, including the milktoast reporting by mainstream media. If they continue to inject their brand of fascists into the system they'll slowly gain more and more power and win.

Seems ridiculous.

Maybe they should look at reducing crime from the start, instead of just attacking it after its already underway. Better schooling and other social programs, maybe? Give people people enough prosperity so that they'll have something they want to protect, instead of having nothing to lose.

I’m originally from Louisiana but have been away for awhile. I know that this is a problem in New Orleans, which we still visit on a regular basis, and while it was bad when I lived there, I read local news and hear from friends that it’s even worse now.

The rest of the state - outside of a few random areas here and there, depending on trends that just affect these sorts of things regardless - I would be surprised if this is a real “crisis” everywhere else vs Landry (who is a major POS btw) just wanting to lock more people up in the private prisons that allegedly may help to fund his political ambitions.

Landry is a garbage person who looooooves “law & order”, is a Trump sycophant, and who will allegedly make decisions based on what will “own the libs” the most. He’s trash. I cannot explain how awful this person is.

Hmm, I wonder why no one wants to be a pig? 🤔

Nasty ass teleprompter

I thought Louisiana had a surplus of pigs

The shortage is real despite how he's trying to play political theater with it.

Washed up cops like to set up shop in Louisiana thinking no one will see their backgrounds and then get fired once their terrible demeanor is exposed. Some Police Chiefs are also corrupt so it's hard for them to keep the good workers.

And all of that is before some of them get arrested for crimes themselves. It's a shit show.
