Not at all.... the crime comes from the ghettos and poverty. Simple as that. The most "policed" areas of N.O. are the party atmospheres (you know, where the tourism / money is generated). The daily murders are not drunken, party foolishness, it's kids turned drug dealers killing each other over petty little issues if they think they were ripped off of $20 for example.

If I really want to get into it, I'd blame the parents of the criminals, who were also likely criminals and don't know how to parent and so on.... It's a long story theory, but I assure you at the root of the crime is a mass of parents (or parent in most cases) that don't know where their kids are, what they're up to and don't care. Or for the older ones, they grew up without that supervision.
