New Orleans, once the Queen of the South has one of the largest ports in the United States and is one of the most fun places to visit. If you think New Orleans is a bad place, you are probably racist. But do not be naive, New Orleans is an All-American city with lots of soup that makes up Americas melting-pot of civilization. I am from Canadian, French, German and Native American descent and I can attest that New Orleans is a fabulous 300+ yr. old American charm. Shreveport has its own charm and value along the historical Red River and is the Northwestern Louisiana Gateway to New Orleans and The Acadian Coast as well as the Atchafalaya Basin, and The Louisiana Prairie. The reason many people perceive Louisiana as being backward is that many here were non-English speaking people and due to the language barriers and unavailability of non-English education, many non-English speaking people were denied an education. But do not be mistaken, there are many intellegent people in Louisiana who were able to settle in unforgiving lands and thrive to make a wonderful--sometimes envious life. Many Louisianians are now living in Texas, making it bigger and better than it ever was and are bringing their rich culture and ingenuity and positive contributions to society there. Remember, Texas was merely a part of Mexico, settled and improved by Europeans. As for I-49, Louisiana is the reason Arkansas, Missouri, and most of all the states west of the Mississippi River are states at all, because many were part of the Louisiana Territory after the Louisiana Purchase, so when you say bad things about Louisiana, its merely a reflection of yourself as an American, because there is a little "Louisiana" in many of us.

It's backward, has bad roads and Shreveport - New Orleans are dead places. Completing I49 is useless. Merge traffic to Texas immediately because that's where we want to go.

Shreveport – New Orleans are dead places. Completing I49 is useless. Merge traffic to Texas immediately because that’s where we want to go.
