NOLA Mayor: Who Knew Mardi Gras Should Have Been Canceled?
Obviously not her.
[HOTAIR] Louisiana is developing into a hot spot for the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
pandemic, in particular, the city of New Orleans. As the Crescent City’s numbers grow and panic sets in, Mayor LaToya Cantrell finds herself under fire. Friday she was pushing back on accusations that she should have acted to cancel Mardi Gras.

John wrote about the mayor’s response to criticism and pointed out that at the time Mardi Gras kicked off, most cancellations of big events across the country had not begun. We didn’t know what we didn’t know, and that includes elected officials in charge of cities across America.

#7 The Mardi Gras hasn't been safe to go to for years. I get the feeling there will be few tears shed if there is a die out there.

#8 re: #6 - Glenmore, if Trump had ORDERED her to cancel it, the Democrats would have attacked him for being a dictator.
