The only thing Ray Davies has done to make the news in years, and he's too busy to further the coverage?

You don't think Phil Spector woulda skipped the trial if he coulda?

Um, that's entirely different!

The best friend I've ever had in my life was shot in New Orleans ten years ago, also a case of a mugger at gunpoint situation. One does wonder about the city...

Damn, I guess I never thought about it but it's kind of crazy that our criminal justice system works this way. I guess there's not much risk in mugging foreign tourists when you know that they'll have to go out of their way to return a year and a half later if they want to press charges.

How should it work then, foreign tourists just send an email and dude gets convicted?

It's the same in the rest of the world. You actually need witnesses and "stuff" to convict...

Crazy criminal justice system.

I dunno. Speedy trial? N.O.P.D. get one tape recorder? I was halfway kidding but I kind of wonder if I got shot in the leg in New Orleans if I would bother to fly back a year later to testify in court.

I agree, I wouldn't fly back either, but it's kind of part of the deal of society if you want it to work. It would be convenient to have tape recordings and all, but do you want the New Orleans (or any) Police Department in charge of, or able to convict with, tape recordings?

ye gods let's not not give the nopd a leash here folx!

a leash, huh?

Garibaldianne (Garibaldianne), Saturday, 23 April 2005 06:48 (nineteen years ago) link

New Orleans is easily the most menacing and dangerous-feeling place I've ever been. I felt lucky to escape without bullet holes.

My heart. Don't bump this!

Thought bump would be about recent Johnny Rogan book.

that book doesnt seem to have much to do with lsu football tbh

adam, Friday, 8 January 2016 17:48 (eight years ago) link

Thought bump would be about Ray Davies being shot in New Orleans again.

Anyway, it's not a three, it's a yogh. (Tom D.), Friday, 8 January 2016 17:59 (eight years ago) link
