Poor Public Babies

Writes the New Orleans newspaper about a recent murder: “The fatal shooting, the 21st murder in New Orleans this year, occurred closely on the heels of a trying Carnival season for police, one in which four people were murdered and 12 others injured in shootings in the past five days, according to police records.”

Yes, “a trying Carnival season for police.” Forget the murdered and maimed and their families.
