the judges in new orleans or state judges. we have 12 judges on the bench, nine of them are african-american. the policies set by the state. the philosophy and the arguments are beginning to move down to the state level. we have raised the issue dramatically that we are over incarcerating. we are not being smart about the individuals that we actually have. besides it being a moral issue, it is a financial issue. the state gets to say who is in jail but the city has to pay for it. when i became mayor i have a $100 million hole in my budget. who actually is in the jail? why are they there for that long? is there a better way to do this? we came up with thoughtful way is to not arrest everybody. in new orleans when i got there, if we pulled you over at united drivers license with action taken to jail. instead of getting a summons to get a municipal court and figure out why you were driving without a license. a bucket load of faultless processes. it was costing the city more money. about two things. it is about money and it is also

the total number of slaughterhouses in new orleans were at 150. the majority were in well populated areas of the city about 1.5 miles upstream from the two large pikes of the city's water intake. one health officer testified filth andamount of coming from the slaughterhouses is incredible. barrels filled with entrails, liver, blood, urine, and other refuse in various stages of decomposition are being thrown in the river. a short distance from the banks, poisoning the air and contaminating the water for miles." i could go on like this, but i am going to stop. i will spend the rest of my lecture on other topics, so we will have time to recover our appetites before we attend the lovely reception the society has planned for us after i am done here. [laughter] mr. barnett: enough. the slaughterhouse act, enacted by the louisiana legislature, addressed public health issues in three ways. first, it stipulated that there would be just one slaughterhouse to service the city of new orleans and the surrounding parishes. second, it issued a franchise to build

you are trying to cut the jail population in new orleans, you are cracking down, trying to root out violent crime at the same time, and i would like to talk about the actual formula, beginning was the incarceration eration, the fancy word for this process. before katrina hit, new orleans was incarcerating people five times the national average. it is still really high, but you brought it down by two thirds. how has that happened? mayor landrieu: louisiana is probably don't most over incarcerated state in america. in a country that is the most over incarcerated in the world. we fit right in the sweet spot. before i came here, i was lieutenant governor, and i oversaw reform of the juvenile justice system in new orleans. incidentally, we found pretty much the same thing. we were putting too many of the wrong kids in a prison environment, not enough of the right kids, and the kids that were the wrong kids we were not treating well. the system was upside down. there was a convergence between conservatives and liberals and moderates that nobody was getting what they wanted. we were not getting th

"well, we ll do a set aside, separate but equal." next to-- you know, the white suburbia at this time, this is in-- very muc

it's the people of new orleans who are policing new orleans. whether on the law enforcement side, community side, the faith-based community or not for profits. at some point in time the streets are telling us that everything is not okay. and you can't turn a blind eye to this. you have to turn to it, analyze it, walk through it, go through the difficult discussions as painful as they may be. that's the only way to come out on the other side and be better. >> i want to add a couple of perspective the about the nature of violence in urban communities today. there is an organized element of drugs and gangs operating not only within many city, but also in concert with the same types of activities occurring in other cities. it involves the transfer of illegal narcotics. stolen weapons. fenced property. and what also goes along with this is the organized nature in which gangs operate, and they operate like gangs operated in the '30s. there are people specifically enumerated within these groups as shooters. they're people that carry out the intimidatio
