A sad story. Maybe true, maybe untrue. Oyster (link 3) is right, it shouldn't strike anyone as uncharacteristic.

But, BSJD had some harsh criticism in the comments section there that struck a chord on some levels but not on others.

Stacy Head has been a problem for District B and for New Orleans because of her policies. The degree of derision that's expressed over her hot-headedness seems comparatively petty. I'd like to see more outrage over her ideas.

Her instances of disrespectful public anger provide only anecdotal evidence of unfortunate biases that are better exposed through her policy stands as a Councilwoman, though she'd like us not to challenge them.

I disagree that with BSJD's sentiment that we should somehow be okay with Stacy Head because she is better than Rene Gill-Pratt. Going from F- to D+ is not change, it is not reform. It just trades one racket for another. The city can't afford to keep playing those games anymore. We need to try again in District B and I'm not willing to give Ms. Head a pass just because she stands up for Mayoral accountability from time to time. Marshall Truehill would have done that too. It's called "progressive and innovative leadership" and we should not accept anything less.
