New Orleans (AP) -- New Orleans police said Thursday they are investigating the slaying of a 25-year-old San Francisco community activist found shot in the head in a hurricane-battered part of the city.

Kirsten Brydum had arrived in the city two days before her body was found Saturday morning in a desolate part of the city's 9th Ward neighborhood, said Marlon Defillo, assistant superintendent of the New Orleans Police Department.

I guess the Chocolate City doesn't need Community Activists from the Special City.

Still a lot of trash floating around New Orleans. Can’t blame the hurricane for all of it.

"She was last seen leaving the bar around 1:30 a.m. Saturday; her body was found on a sidewalk about seven hours later."

On the street in the 9th ward at 1:30AM...real stupid.
(Probably robbed, raped and shot)

That’s sad, my prayers for her family. NO is still a dangerous place. Even back when we used to go to NO for vacation (in the 80s and 90s) I would not have walked around in most places.

Must have been pretty strong to blow the trash all the way from San Francisco!

NO is still a dangerous place.

Even more so according to several of my corporate office friends that have lived there many years.

Poor, idealistic, liberal fool.

This is what incessant leftist indoctrination will do to people. No doubt, she thought those people would all realize that she was there to help them, and never imagined that any of these "victims" would ever hurt her.

Think she'll fall for the liberals in her next life?

Poor thing. I wonder if she believed that the only “evil” in the world was the people that cling to their guns and religion.

I don’t know. Is a community activist the same as a community organizer? When words lose their meaning they can be used to describe anything. And assuming there was some sort of agitating going on why would a white girl from California be doing it in the black part of New Orleans?
