http://www.wdsu.com/article/city-planning-commission-puts-soft-cap-on-number-of-strip-clubs-allowed-on-bourbon-street/16647301

This is fucking disgusting, the sterilization of New Orleans at the behest of transplants continues as every last bit of edge and uniqueness this city has will slowly be killed off for a more transplant friendly city as locals who speak out against this are told to fuck off and die in the corner so as not to disturb the transplants and tourists.

What a weird thing to get upset over. Like, how many strip clubs does Bourbon Street need anyway?

If you want to get really upset, be upset by the fact that in less than a year the Switch outsold Wii U lifetime sales.

These "raids" were the result of BS witch hunts created at the behest of transplants whining about their kids seeing strip clubs on Bourbon when no local has ever complained about that

He gets "outraged" over the 'gentrification' of New Orleans. It's another one of his gimmicks.

With all the bitching he does about them I wouldn't be surprised if he actually does. Also he needs to close his account.

I'm sorry you come from a place that isn't unique in any way or has any culture but you can't blame me for being pissed people who aren't even from here are stripping away and blatantly pissing all over the culture and way of life we've enjoyed long before Katrina for no other purpose than money

Why all of a sudden would the cops who normally take bribes from the club owners to look the other way in the dirty shit that obviously goes down there have a problem? Oh wait. Someone paid more than the club owners, wonder who that could be?

If city council approves the recommendation, 14 strip clubs would be allowed on Bourbon Street; that's how many clubs are already in place.

So basically nothing changes

Tuesday's public hearing comes as the Alcohol and Tobacco Commission gave an update on strip club raids that happened in January.

Five of the eight club owners settled with the ATC; Stilettos, Rick's Saloon, Rick's Cabaret, Hunk Oasis and Scores. They will reopen this week and will be on probation for a year.

Two clubs closed permanently: Dixie Divas and Temptations.

Hustler's Barely Legal has a hearing on Fridays to determine its future.

Something something transplants?

Do you have proof that the law enforcement was bribed? Also, how are strip clubs a "culture" thing? Does that mean pretty much every city is appropriating New Orleans culture?

None solid unfortunately, only word of mouth from a couple of friends who work down on Bourbon. It's just been common local knowledge for decades though that the club owners bribe the cops to look the other way for the dirty shit they do on the side and that after the transplants made a big fuss about the strip clubs not too long ago . So this is more than just one big coincidence gmanthebest posted...
Also, how are strip clubs a "culture" thing?

It's not the clubs themselves that are the culture but rather the culture built around them and them and the bars around them. Indulgence and decadence is the way of NOLA and by trying to get rid of these clubs is a sign of the culture of the city starting to be sterilized and take away what makes NOLA unique and interesting

Is welching a New Orleans tradition too?


interestingly, yes

The City that Care Forgot has been used since at least 1938,[24] and refers to the outwardly easy-going, carefree nature of the residents.

Yeah, That's exactly how it works down here.

This is the same police force that a killed a guy during a traffic stop during Katrina , threw his corpse in a car, and set it on fire to cover it up, do you really think bribery is beyond expectations?
