Acadiana is great. I love visiting my other and his family. I haven't seen much north of Baton Rouge though.

Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

I lived in New Orleans for 4 years as a pre-teen, when Dad was stationed at the Naval Air Station in Algiers. I went to a Catholic grade school there because at the time, my parents didn't feel the public schools offered a good enough education. I loved everything about Louisiana....Mardi Gras (which even has its attractions for kids), and fishing in the bayous particularly; fresh bayou crab and catfish was a staple on Friday nights. The only thing I hated were the heavy humidity during certain parts of the year, and the mosquitoes the size of sparrows.
Well, I was born in the sign of water,
And it's there that I feel my best,
The albatross and the whales they are my brothers.

These few threads on secession have been interesting, they juxtapose, next to the squalid gloating spirit of liberals, the excited, liberating spirit of conservatives.

I though the 2nd amendment had already been incorporated against the states. In any case, I'm glad they passed it.
