Louisiana doesn't value freedom or "freedom". They have more of a percentage of their people incarcerated than any other state in the USA, even more than Iraq.

- eatsyourtacos 4y agoOf course it doesn't. I'm just being facetious since conservative talking points are all about freedom when most of their policies are the exact opposite.
- aliqot 4y agoNothing about this has to do with conservative talking points.

- albrewer 4y agoRelated anecdote: My father-in-law died in Louisiana state police custody, in a pretty brutal and depressing way, after breaking no laws but "acting suspiciously" in a casino parking lot. No lawyer would touch the case because he had meth in his system according to the toxicology report, despite the fact he'd been restrained for hours before he died. Apparently it's nigh-impossible to bring a wrongful death suit against police in Louisiana.
