In case you didn't know, Louisiana passed Constitutional Carry this year and it goes into effect tomorrow. Louisiana also recognizes AZ CCW permits and has reciprocity. So if you visit, this may apply to you.
But New Orleans is a libtard city, and have been pitching a fit about people being able to CCW. In a bit of brilliant imagination, N.O. has decided to declare their police station in the quarter as a "vocational school", thereby granting it status as a federally-enforced Gun-Free School Zone, in order to prohibit carrying on Bourbon Street.

"We were not just going to sit back and say, 'Oh, well,'" said City Council president Helena Moreno during a press conference Monday.
Instead, city officials created a workaround — though they're not calling it that — by shifting some NOPD training to the 8th District police station, which they're in the process of having permitted as a vocational school and thus the hub of a new gun-free zone.
"We're looked at every law on the books to make sure we're getting this right," said District Attorney Jason Williams, thanking "volunteer assistant district attorney" and New Orleans lawyer Morris Bart for the support his staff offered in the research process.
Like other school zones, the French Quarter school zone will extend 1,000 feet from the school at the 8th District NOPD station.
That creates "a zone of protection" for about five blocks spanning from Canal Street to Toulouse, including some of the busiest blocks of Bourbon Street, Bart said Monday.
