I live and work in New Orleans. I don't live in the best part of town.

Bad stuff happens here like everywhere but I very very rarely fear for my safety.

This is a definite case of 'control/corruption in the name of safety'.

How do we stop it?

There are community groups organizing to oppose the expansion of the security state in New Orleans, including but not limited to MaCCNO: https://maccno.com/join-the-opposition-to-new-orleans-40-mil...

Thank you!
