But back to the original statement, you absolutely must keep any and all valuables under tight hold and be very aware in the Big Easy. Its just that way down there, especially since Katrina.

Don't make it sound like a war zone. I was down there for a night and I was fine. I am not saying it is the greatest place in the world but this is a bit much from a detail perspective. I had a great time, mostly because I had a great tour guide but still, even if that wasn't available, getting to where all the people are, and getting back to the hotel area, there isn't trouble at every corner.....
I walked around and took in the city. It wasn't like I was running down an alley to find trouble either. Stick to Bourbon Street, the 'lake' front (I can't remember if it was a lake or a river) and your hotel, and you'll be fine.
