“You threw a motherfcking concert in Louisiana and didn’t book no Louisiana legends, didn’t put no bankroll in any Louisiana legends’ pockets, but you paid the police half a million dollars,” said Chris. “What kind of b*tch *ss sh*t is that?”
“Shreveport had cheap ass land. He came and bought that sh*t,” he added.
“That f*cking money could have went to anything to help the youth, we don’t need more money invested into the police,” he said.

According to Hurricane Chris, the city of Shreveport doesn’t need concerts and comedy shows. “We need for people like me who defend ourselves to have their rights respected by the state,” he tweeted. As for giving money to the Shreveport police, Chris thinks it’s part of the city’s pipeline to prison.
“Louisiana has the 4th worst educational system in America and they use jail as profit but my people just wanna party,” he wrote.
