wcb6092First class arrogance! New Orleans' Democrat mayor says flying economy is UNSAFE for black women
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/ne...k-taxpayer-cash.htmlMayor of New Orleans, LaToya Cantrell, is refusing to repay money spent on international business and first-class flights to France and Switzerland
Cantrell explained her purchase was a 'safety issue' rather than one of comfort
She has also justified the extravagant expense because they were business trips
Yet her entourage was fine sitting in economy class seats including her security
The mayor also upgrades to the front even on domestic flights within the U.S.
She now owes $30,000 in upgrade expenses alone as the city's travel policy states, 'Employees are required to purchase the lowest airfare available… '
Any upgrades incurred should be paid for out of employees' own pockets

She needs a head doc, everything is racist. She can’t do her job out of fear of whites, lord knows it’s not safe out there!

Black92LXSounds like she should just stay home.
Should be easy enough for the city to just take the money out of her pay check.

'Anyone who wants to question how I protect myself just doesn't understand the world black women walk in.'
The mental gymnastics to come up with that excuse is amazing. Next, she'll have the same ghetto excuse for eating in 5-star restaurants instead of chains- she needs to feel safe as a black woman.

ZSMICHAELNOLA has a fine tradition of corruption. Former mayor Ray Nagin comes to mind. I believe he is due for release next year from Federal prison. They just cannot help themselves.

V-TailWhy does a New Orleans mayor need to go to France and Switzerland to conduct New Orleans city business?

Perks of the job! A job her people voted for. That’s another city in ruins by the home folks.

2012BOSS302Studies have shown the rear seats of the plane are statistically the safest. But those studies use data, mathematics, statistics and physics to come to those conclusions.
Unfortunately, when examining airline flight safety data they didn't factor in the murder, rape, assault and robbery rate differences between first class and coach and then separate that further by age, sex and race.
If it is that unsafe, I'm not sure why you wouldn't want to be sitting right next to your security detail. I'm surprised the airlines would let anyone sit in the dangerous coach compartment. Maybe they should put armed officers on planes and call them something fancy like air marshall. They would probably have reports of all these crimes going on in coach.
