We traveled to [Bourbon Street] New Orleans for Southern Decadence and came across this. It was actually a practice protest for the festival the following day. Got to love their signs though! I have been called many things but never a threat to National Security!

Sneak peek at the new iWatch due to launch next week.
A man in his 50s is in custody after a siege ended in Bailieborough, Co. Cavan shortly before 4am.
At around 7:30 pm on Thursday evening, the man is believed to have entered the Square Bar with a firearm. He ordered customers and staff to leave and barricaded himself in.
The discovery of a woman’s body in the Drumbannon estate on Thursday is being linked to the standoff. Garda negotiators and the Emergency Response Unit attended the scene.
