I think that's the plan.The city is buying up the 9th ward and making it a park zone for the next decade and most of the blacks don't have houses ,jobs or schools so are leaving for who knows where.So is the word I am getting from local residence there now.This would appear to be a prime time for whites to move in and take over. Yeah I remember seeing on CNN how they are tearing down some of the projects and replacing them with middle income housing. So in other words running out the ghetto trash and moving in civilized white people. They had a big near riot at the City Hall over it.     I always thought Katrina could be a good thing for New Orleans. Like an enema. Flush out all the brown :cool: The districts that were the most hard hit were the biggest worst ghettos like the 9th ward. The nicer neighborhoods weren't as badly effected. Lots of ghetto blacks have been leaving for elsewhere like u mentioned. You're right, it could actually be a prime opportunity to save the good ole' city of New Orleans. :clink We could all move to Nola and be just like pioneers out on the frontier! Building the place back up and fighting off the natives! :D
