Finally

It's not a question that I wish to debate, nor do I have strong feelings one way or the other. I understand the economic need for a Mardi Gras celebration and the message it sends about the area. But heck, I'm documenting that not seven miles from the French Quarter and not even four miles from the Ninth Ward, is a community that still lies devastated from the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. And exactly what message should be sent? Anyway, ABC News has a story New Orleans' Party is On -- But Should it Be? that echoes sentiments I've heard. To be fair, I've heard both sides of the debate from the locals as well.
