Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry is currently facing angry constituents and observers online after posting a picture of himself outside of a steak house less than 24 hours after New Year’s Day truck attack killed
15 people.

In the photo, Landry is seen at Bon Ton Prime Rib, holding a thumbs up in a group of people with the caption..

“Ate dinner tonight in New Orleans. Proud to be a part of this incredibly resilient city. See everyone at the game tomorrow!”

The angry comments rolled in afterwards…

Funny how your security detail is not included in the picture – let's get all the tourists who were on Bourbon street to show pics of their security detail. Hope you enjoyed your steak – maybe you could let the parents of the kids killed know how good that steak was.

Landry would respond to the criticism..

It’s important to understand that we have many visitors in the city of New Orleans right now. Safety is our top priority and we want our guests and the world to know that Louisiana does not cower to radical islamic terrorists.

Our restaurants and all New Orleans has to offer remain open for business!
