It is really offensive to call an American City “war ravaged”. Especially one that’s mostly old hippies and midlife hipsters. Who the fuck is buying this?
WTF do you suppose this mass shooting was about? My intuition wonders if it’s about child molestation or something like that. Too many fucking guns in this country!

According to police, the man in the gray and black hoodie is the suspected perpetrator in the shooting, while the other people were seen with him at the time of the shooting and are considered persons of interest.
Police said the shooting happened shortly after 2 a.m. Sunday in the 100 block of Bourbon Street.
The department said three of the victims, a man and two women, were found in the area of the shooting, and a fourth woman was located at the intersection of Canal Street and St. Charles Avenue.
According to Superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick, one of the women found at the scene died from her injuries.
Kirkpatrick said the woman who died was a 33-year-old innocent bystander who was visiting New Orleans from Chicago to celebrate her birthday.
According to Kirkpatrick, one of the surviving victims is the sibling of the woman killed.
“We recognize the legality of being able to carry a gun, but when you mix it with people who have been drinking, then we have a high-risk situation. Please, leave your guns at home,” said Kirkpatrick.
The New Orleans Police Department said it was able to review video footage of the shooting, calling it a “shootout” that escalated from a fight.
“We’re terribly sorry. My heart breaks for this family. They were here to celebrate in our fabulous city, but we need everyone to work together on this,” said Kirkpatrick.
The cause of the shooting remains under investigation.
Anyone with additional information that can assist in this investigation or to locate/identify the depicted persons of interest is urged to contact NOPD Homicide Section detectives at 504-658-5300. Those wishing to report information anonymously can do so by calling Crimestoppers of Greater New Orleans at 504-822-1111 or toll-free at 1-877-903-STOP.Shar
