Jackson Jambalaya

Good for Byram! At least it shows they've put some thought and consideration into this decision. I don't think Graham knows how to use his head for anything other than a hat rack.

Graham is using his head to line his pockets.

Everybody should know that Stowers and Hargrove formed those "companies" shortly after Graham got elected. They knew Graham would get rid of Motorola and then Graham could direct the service contract to them. Everyone using the Hinds System has bailed on them due to their incompetence.

The city of Byram should just install Klan signs at the Byram exit. Those racists.

Screw Graham. He's also peeved that Byram isn't kissing his ass as they set up their BPD dispatch operation without Graham's help.

Let's hope the good Lord has given Roger Davis enough wisdom to run a shoe leather campaign this time around. Coffee and tea gatherings ain't gonna get it done Roger. You've got to get out and knock on doors.

KF, Cheryl refers to Hargrove as a paid consultant. But there still is no contract, right? Are there any paid invoices to Hargrove for purely billed consulting hours?

Paul can you explain how racism comes into this? Or is that just another tool in the democratic playbook?

Ironghost, just getting out in front. The only white people in this story are those that want Motorolas. Check the JFP, if they cover this story, that will be the direction it goes.

Irong, I too was annoyed at paul's comment, but now that he has explained it, I think he has a point.

Sorry, y'all, I cannot figure out this sarcasm font thingy. Imma n00b.

Yeah, but a damn funny one, mean ole meany

Bullsh@# Paul. You are pretty damn good at sarcasm. Noobs simply have a hard time deciphering.

As to the post, way to go Byram for standing up for the citizens they have vowed to protect and telling the BOS the same.

A question was asked this morning at the Board of Supervisors meeting and I have the answer! Questions---- What are we (Board of Supervisors) going to do with those 45 radios that we have already purchased? Answer...... The citizen's of Byram don't care. Because those radios belong to Hinds County since they didn't follow protocol and give the money to the agency to purchase the radios and they (BOS) wanted to control the purchase so they said they would make the radio purchase and then give them to Byram. Hmmmm.... Why would you not give Byram the money like you do every other city? Well, thats because they can buy the radios they want and line the pockets of who they want!

Paul: I upgraded to firefox 4, so I lost my sarcasm font tags anyway.

12:47, what else was said at the meeting this morning re this topic? Any comment from Graham?

Questions---- What are we (Board of Supervisors) going to do with those 45 radios that we have already purchased?

Either shove 'em or dump 'em on Craigslist.

If the state auditor can not follow the money, he must be blind.These folks are trying to break in to jail..

Let me guess. Robert Graham wants to blame all the Republicans living in Byram for this.

You forget, it's HARD to get into jail from Hinds County. You pretty much have to murder ten people.

I thought Paul Mitchell was being sarcastic. I now nominate him to be the JJ psychic-in-residence.

Check out the comments on the C-L story on this topic - yep, Byrum is full of racists who are squandering the money of the hard-working AA taxpayers of Byrum, all because they don't want to buy radios from a minority vendor.

You can't make this s--t up. Seriously.

The CL did a story on this?????

I was trying to be sarcastic, but those assclowns fooled me. Dang it.

I wonder how many of the few remaining businesses finally decided to leave Hinds County
and the City of Jackson today, ... ( after these facts became public ) ?

Madison and Rankin welcomes you !

We only ask...what took ya'll so long to "see the light" ?

Yes EF Johnson radios will work on the MSWIN system. They are being used by some agencies in Madison County including the EOC. The problem is the EF Johnson radios are crap compared to Motorola. The hinds county board of supervisors only want the EF Johnson radios because they believe that Motorola owes them money.
