WAPT um, covers Canton Estates video story

Well,well, well. WAPT decided to cover the video posted on this website yesterday. Compare the coverage by WAPT to what was posted yesterday (Earlier post). This site made the entire available to you for your review. The court files, including the attorney's letter were posted. WAPT completely slanted the story instead of trusting you to make your own judgment. These are just innocent boys trying to send a message, you understand. Just a meanin' no harm. They weren't trying to get anyone in trouble of course (Nice to see they actually wore clothes in the interview.). No mention was made on the small children in the video.

The reporter shows her ignorance of firearms when she calls handguns automatic weapons (and if there were automatic weapons, I'm sure the ATF or some of Eric Holder's gun buyers might be interested.). She does not ask to see the guns but does let the punks offer an apology (I wonder if she thought "I hope they like me"?). She does not verify the lawyers claims about the deputy's presence with the Madison County Sheriff's Office. She does not get the reaction of any local black leaders of Canton such as -you know- the Mayor, the Police Chief, the Blackmons, Paul Griffin. However, she does make the apartment complex manager look like the bad guy for refusing to talk to her and painting the deputies in a bad light. . Almost seems as if they were interested in pushing just one side of the story. But since News Director Bruce Marshal and Tammy Estwick are journalists, that could not be true, could it?

Here are some comments from the WAPT website. Enjoy.

This is just food for thought... There is crime everywhere and I agree that this video does promote it; however, I applaud their talents, determination, and tenacity. In actuality, they spoke better than most athletes that have been interviewed on the news. #justanobservation

Um, yeah, just like the burglar who went up 8 flights of stairs to Curt Crowleys office. I applaud his determination but still think he's a scumbag.

These young men were escorted by the police to their video shoot; if they were breaking any laws, it would've been addressed. The wrong image was portrayed, yes. That's why these young men have a song about perception & being positive role models for students while achieveing in school. If they were such thugs, they would've not apologized... How many thugs and criminals have been on the news apologizing for past crimes? Most definitely not the Byram man charged with murder last night!
"

Um, no. I spoke to Toby "Culpepper" Trowbridge about this a few weeks ago. Deputies did not supervise anything nor did they escort anyone.

I am taken aback by the ignorant comments of negative people who have biased opinions about youths. These young men are expressing themselves, the same way young teens express themselves in Rankin Co. through drinking & then plotting to kill a Black man just for fun. Which one was worse?
"

Oh yes, have to throw in the Rankin County race card.

I wonder what the new Sheriff is going to do about this...Oh wait..I know tell WAPT to shut off their cameras.

This what you get Canton for electing a pill popping mayor on prozac.

The damn Sheriffs were not "on duty" for any of this.

Young men just expressing themselves...

Frankly, that's what's so scary. The young songwriters in my day wrote about plenty of stuff the older generation didn't like, but if this how they really feel then there's a whole generation of blacks who are in trouble. I'm not for censorship in music, but there's something wrong in the marketplace if these kids make a cent off this slop. Bill Billingsley

Can someone please translate this post ?

Since this location is in the city limits of Canton, I believe this was the responsibility of the Canton Police Department not the Madison County Sheriff's Department. However, if you have seen and heard the Canton Police Chief, you can guess what happened with that! She is totally useless along with the mayor

Kane Ditto, 1985? I think he's drawing a verbal map to some gold coins maybe.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.

Jackson Jambalaya is the home of Trollfest '07. Catch this great event which promises to leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Sonjay Poontang and his band headline the night with a special steel cage, no time limit "loser must leave town" bout between Alan Lange and "Big Cat"Donna Ladd following afterwards. Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.
