Just wow.

Good ol' Ed Blackmon. His sense of entitlement is alive and well!

I will gladly exchange my knees, hips,ankles and damaged brain stem with him if he want to parking spot, especially mine. Just another elitest a$$hole.

Please tell me you called the cops just for laughs.

This blog just keeps getting better everyday Kingfish.

Can this photo be used as the basis for a complaint for a ticket for violation of the law against parking in a handi-cap space? This arrogant SOB needs to be made an example of.

Thought he drove a Bentley. When did he drop down to a lowly beemer?
Oh, the shame.

Scumbag!

The Bentley is only for driving around Canton when he wants to remind his subjects that he is royalty.

Wow. There is a special place in hell for people who do this.

Dear Foxnews...

Article 4, Section 48. Immunity of members from arrest for certain crimes.

Senators and representatives shall, in all cases, except treason, felony, theft, or breach of the peace, be privileged from arrest during the session of the legislature, and for fifteen days before the commencement and after the termination of each session.

Maybe he was conducting official Legislative business.

Maybe he had his braindead wife with him...that might be a good reason to park there

WHo freaking cares if he's on official Legislative business? He could be meeting with the Queen of Ruritania and it still doesn't give him the right to occupy a H/C parking spot. This really chaps my butt--both of my parents are disabled and went through the process of getting a H/C tag. "Scumbag" doesn't begin to cover it.

I think he still has the Bentley. He also has a black BMW just like that as well -- at least last week, he did. It too had a House license plate on it. Maybe they have a black one for him and a white one for her.

With that many nice cars, sounds like he needs to spread the wealth around.

If this is really Ed, it is really sad. Why is he entitled to park in that space? Is he entitled to do whatever he wants? He should at least apply for a sticker. I think they hand them out like candy in his district.

Should someone report this to the Bar and possibly the House? At a minimum there should be some ethical implications, assuming those two groups can be said to have ethics.

As a person in a wheelchair, I would like a personal apology from Rep. Blackmon. I wish he could know the frustration of driving through a parking lot looking for a parking space with enough room to unload his wheelchair. I am greatly disappointed in his blatant disregard for the disabled community and basic human decency. What a great example he is for society...

This must be him....his District is 57!

So Sad... It's all about SELF

KINGFISH: can you confirm this is Blackmon? This is despicable!

What's up with the wreck in north Jackson claiming the life of the teacher? No name release of the 19 year old....

With that many nice cars, sounds like he needs to spread the wealth around.

Throughout his legislative career Ed has stood ready to spread your wealth around.

I hope that Fox 40 steals this one. Its pretty disgusting.

Maybe he really knows he is actually qualified for this space!

Suggestion to the guy in a wheelchair. Call Bert Case, do a spot demanding a pubic apology from King Ed. Shame on him.

Obviously he was since stooooopid Barbour called them all back into session. There is nothing illegal about this. You all are just jealous and trying to stir up trouble -- bully in the playground, bully in the playground!!!

Geez 8:30 unwad your panties and look at the truth, right is right and wrong is wrong. And this is just WRONG !!!!!

8:30 PM I thought we asked you JFP'ers to behave. Your incredibly sophomoric comment is just that, feeble at best. Get with the conversation, educate yourself, see truth for reality and don't subscribe to bullshit, or Donner K's kool-aid.

anon@ at 8:30 you have no idea the pain this causes people who need those spaces. If you were not such a simple minded person, you would have give some thought to the hurtful and insensitive remarks you made. Not everyone is like you and has full use of their bodies. Some of us have to struggle to do the things you take for granted. So before dismissing his abuse of power, think before you open your mouth and make a fool of yourself. I bet your parents are real proud of you, right?

If you need more proof of your total misundersstnding of this issue spend some time at Dr, Ruth Fredricks office or maybe Dr. Jeff Kennedy just to name a couple. Then you can tell us how this is no big deal. Maybe you might get some humility and see that the real bully on the playground is Y-O-U

Of course you know that Barbara recently underwent knee replacement surgery? Or, perhaps that the vehicle was not a Bentley simply created a convenient taget for commentary?

Donner K....go to bed.

11:26 - no H/C tag, no excuse - it's the law, and a law-writing lawyer should know that.

7:23 - I bet the city doesn't want to get stuck with the hospital tab for the driver who killed her, so they're waiting until he is ready for discharge from the hospital before they charge him.

KF - an afterthought - you don't want to get embarassed as Andrew Breirbart recently was by presenting an incomplete story, so did you check to see if there was a blue, temporary, H/C placard hanging down from the front windshield rear-view mirror? They are just as legal as a tag. If not, I agree with all the nasty comments he has deservedly attracted.

Did you manage to look at all the pictures? 12:34? It would be worse if it was not him, it was his family that felt ENTITLED.

Look at the one taken from front of the car? Do you see one hanging from rear view mirror? I don't. I also don't seem to remember being eligible for one when I had knee surgery a few years ago either. I have another one sent to me showing his car parked the same way at the Hilton but since no front view, I didn't post.

Another narcissistic Mississippi politician. Humph, who'd'a thunk it?
Shame on him.

The Blackmons do not even live in the district that he represents and no one does anything about that. They live in Jackson in a big mansion with a tennis court.

He has an office in Canton and according to the listing for the House of Representatives he lives in a Post Office Box in Canton. He maintains a house in Canton which is not livable but contains the clothing line that his wife sales, check out in Jackson where he resides and you will see all these vehicles parked there.

KINGFISH: In light of these photos, we would really appreciate it if you would post the photos from the Hilton. The public deserves to know!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Could have been one of his children driving his car.

The Blackmons do not even live in the district that he represents and no one does anything about that.

Neither does Jim Evans.

42 comments about Ed Blackmon's BMW?

Wonder how many comments you could get about Ed Blackmon's legislation?

Wow.

7:25:

Where did I write Ed Blackmon did anything? I just posted pics of the car. Could've been anyone else driving that car as far as I know.

But, Kingfish, where would Ed's kids get the entitlement ideology? If it was one of his kids, maybe someone should call Child Protective Services or something?

My mom is handicapped and we share a car, which has a HC tag. Only when she is in the car with me do I use the HC parking spaces. If she isn't with me, I park in regular. I am so thankful that I don't have to use a HC space, I wouldn't dream of using a space meant for someone physically disabled. People like this are LAZY. I don't care who this car belongs to. It's just wrong and they deserve a ticket.

KF - 12:34 here again. I missed the front view. Whoever did this is officially despicable. Anyone who complains about it, though, is officially a racist ;-)

ETHICS

Ed spells it ENTITLEMENT

I am embarrassed that this "man" is my representative. Last session, I wrote to him three times via e-mail asking to know his position on a bill and he never once responded. Perhaps he should spend less time cruising for a handicapped spot and more time actually "representing" the people.

In Ed Blackmon's mind you are lucky to live in his district. Of course he isn't going to respond to you.

like I said, his is probably inside Bravo trading his BMW in for a Hummer, hahahaha

Does he even live in his district?

What a freakin' douchebag.

He is a punk!

The Blackmon's live at the corner of Richardson Road and Lake Castle in a million dollar plus home...far, far from Ed's district, and Barbara's lobbying business.
