I lived in New Orleans for most of my life. We always caught hell for corruption. Well New Orleans and Louisiana,before Jindell, were corruption kindergarten compared to Chicago, Boston, and New York.
The Saints played Chicago for the NFC championship a few years ago. The year after Katrina if I am not mistaken.
The Saints and their fans were given a Chicago welcome.
Chicago's welcome included Bears fans with signs saying, “Why didn't you drown?” etc. Classy bunch of folks.
Not everyone was at that level but more than one would expect from supposedly civilized humans. Pure hate was exhibited.
Now that I'm on a roll.
FReep help. I seem to remember Dr. King saying words to the effect that when he was in Chicago during a (I believe sanitation )strike he experienced more hate in the eyes of people than anytime he was in the South. Pretty harsh stuff.

My father is a retired Marine Lt. Col., and he was a Commanding Officer (CO) for the last few years he was in. He told me that EVERY Marine he knew from Chicago gave him trouble.
