Jackson Jambalaya

Posting the word 'yawn' would be inappropriate; but, it's just 'so Jacktown'. I hope both of them are well and can find peace. It'll take weeks to calm down, if they're able to calm down at all. You never get over this kind of trauma. Ever.

"They were young." The shithead who murdered Trey Wright at 2:30pm was 15 yrs old. He should have had his ass in school and not on the streets shooting white men.

Sounds like a hate crime.

Your post would be credible if you'd left out the word 'white'.

9:06 you are a stupid shit. 7:04 is completely credible and honest. Switch races of perp and victim, and here come Jesse and Al.

PHUCK OFF.

Gosh, I'm shocked. I thought the Belhaven area like the Fondren area was super safe. My mistake. :)

Nothing to see here...move along.
please keep moving.

Get a carry pistol. Take a CCW class, learn to operate it in the rain with your eyes closed! AND DON'T BE AFRAID TO USE IT!. Every time someone ventilates the chest of one of these thugs and sends it to the morgue, crime drops for weeks in the area.

You know, if you think about what she wrote, this is really a scary, tragic situation......but it's what we, in a "civilized" society, have been forced to endure. 30 years ago, this would have been, virtually, unthinkable.

The sad thing is, it's unlikely to change. Anyone inclined to speak out about these sorts of crimes will be muzzled by those who will make every excuse they can for the perpetrators. No, the PC crowd will have their fingers on the hair-trigger of the race gun, and since those same liberals have been so effective at causing people to be fearful of being called a racist (the real term should be "observationist"), the criminals will simply carry along their merry way.

This whole PC movement is much like what I would call political "fashion." For example, if a popular person is seen wearing a particular item of clothing, it's not long until everyone wants to wear the same thing. Forget individuality, they want other people to believe they know what's popular and they're part of the "in" crowd. To wear something different (even if it's better looking) would cause them to fear they may be see as not "with it.".......Isn't that how the PC thought process goes? People won't speak their minds out of fear of not being in the "in" crowd or the crowd perceived to be "intelligent?" Think about it. Facts are facts....

Society knows who commits most of the crimes.
Society knows, for the most part, why they commit the crimes.
Society knows what it would take to eradicate most of it.

However, NO ONE WILL TAKE ACTION! Even though most of those facts are known, the PC crowd will look at my comments as "racist," because that's not the "popular" way to think / write.

Every year, PC thinking is causing society to change their ways more and more. (50 years ago, we had to start locking our doors. Then we had to avoid certain areas of town. Then our wives/daughters couldn't go out at night alone. Then we had to have security guards at restaurants for ALL patrons, etc.) How much more are we willing to take until we say ENOUGH? I'm at that point. What say you?

1:43 is right. Get a Glock and never, ever leave home without it. And when presented with a deadly force situation, kill the MF. Kill them. Period.

Then order a pizza before you call 911 so you won't get hungry while telling the detectives how the bad guy got a new body orifice in his forehead.

Okay, for the first time ever, I will compliment the JPD. I am impressed they caught these thugs so quickly.

I was kidnapped once in Jackson and for that ordeal JPD investigators could not have been less helpful. I confess I lost all respect for JPD after that.

I would like to thank 1:43 & a caller on a local late afternoon radio talk show for giving me two great new phrases :

" Chest Ventilation " - describing self defense .

" Parchman Larvae " - describing kids that have no
chance in life due to their
Baby Daddy Kul'cha.

7:52, not to minimize your situation, but I understand completely why some JPD officers act like they don't care.

Hinds County has a District Attorney that lets violent habituals skate, and a judicial officer like Judge Tomie T. Dumbshit who is so busy hoisting her massive girth into other branches of government, she can't find time to do her actual job properly.

It may not be right, but I know exactly where those officers are coming from. If I worked for jpd, I probably wouldn't give a shit either.

Curt: It has taken way longer for this JPD mindset to 'peak out' than the time the current D.A. or Green have been in their positions. In fact, hasn't it taken about 35 years for the foul yeast to plump up?

It's very sad that even when someone (judge weil) runs on a platform to fix the system and attains office and his first step is to have a grand jury meet more than once a quarter and hire temporary judges and release non violent criminals to make room for the bad apples... His intentions are squashed by some egotistical-lawless-bitch named Tommie Green. KK or Curt will someone tell me the correct procedure for impeaching this lunatic. I think judge weil's plan would have reassured some confidence back into our fragile JPD system... Also Colendu Green needs to go home to.... Lee Vance for chief.

Hinds County ... A World of Difference!

I need an attorney for a civil matter. I know you generally do criminal on her Mr Crowley. I don't care.. By Gawd...ya got BALLS!

If you are in Fondren or Belhaven and NOT carrying, you might want to rethink that. Or get yo'self a fancy trailer with cameras and an ipad.

I remember when we could leave our doors unlocked etc.

The biggest difference between then and now , is that if you had a child or family member on drugs or acting crazy you could , without their agreement or cooperation, call the cops and get them to take the relative/spouse/child to a treatment facility.

You could involuntarily commit them.

If nothing else, you'd get enough drugs and alcohol out of their system or enough meds in them to have a rational conversation.

And, we could involuntarily commit the badly crazy people so their medication would be supervised.

The system was abused by a few and so we engaged in overkill as usual.

And, our population grew so our number of dysfunctional grew right along with it ( 10% of 300 million is more dysfunctional folks than 10% of 100million) It became too expensive to house those among us who can't function in society. We don't want to pay the price tag.

Just like we don't want to pay the price tag to keep criminals in prison anymore.

PC shouldn't be anything other than people being well mannered. But, frankly, I don't see a whit of difference between bleeding hearts on the left and those on the right who talk about " redemption" and who believe anyone who says I'm " reborn" actually is. It's just a matter these days of which crazy person they want to protect or attack in the moment.

If everyone would stop focusing on the crazy people in someone else's " group"( be it race, political party, professional group, church affliation, family) and start doing something about the crazies in their own group, we might get somewhere.

Instead, crazy people and former drug addicts are actually influencing our politics and with the baby boomers beginning to have senile dementia and Alzheimer's, it's not likely to get better.

Those among us who could warn us of someone whose going to go " postal" will get sued these days, but not when I could keep my doors locked.

But, hey, let's keep choosing up sides in every conflict, minding everyone else's business rather than our own so we can continue to make sure tempests in teapots become tsunamis. It's working so well.

The carjacking in Madison county didn't seem to cause this kind of alarm. I hate to break the news to some of you, but your little safe suburb won't be safe forever. Just ask some folks in the 'burbs of say...Atlanta, Detroit,Houston. But, in 20 years, I'll be dead and so will some of you, so what do we care? Let's just keep feeling smarter and more superior...just like our parents did as they kept moving away from the city center until they got across the county line.

@meople: It was Weill's plan to have the grand jury meet more than once a quarter? If you did some research you would see that DA Smith started having a grand jury meet once a month when he took office in 2008. Green stopped this practice. The grand jury was meeting once a month before Jeff Weill ever even heard of the circuit court. Another lovely thing Weill has done is to be so pro prosecution that jurors have told court officials that they have voted not guilty on his cases that went to trial because the judge was so biased. Check the number of convictions at trial since he took office a year ago. Went down substantially since Swan Yerger left and Yerger was thought to be the most unfair judge of all.

People don't hear about the crime in Belhaven or Fondren area. Because it is never reported by the newspaper or tv.

10:27 Reported or not, most people even ones who don't live in Jackson know the Fondren and Belhaven areas are not safe and avoid going there. Both areas are just too near where the thugs live. They put on a hoodie, get their gun, and just walk over to steal, destroy, rape, murder, etc., and then run back a couple blocks to their homes to hide. Yes, there is crime everywhere, but thugs just love Jackson. They can do their thing and either not be caught or not punished. Getting worse everyday, too.

Perfectly written, and the timing couldn't be better for this article: http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=50546

Wonder if Reverend Sharpton and Reverend Jackson will come to town and protest the injustice being handed out to those two young black men who committed this crime? Just two young men out for a summer stroll that were no doubt unjustly attacked.

Yes, 12:24am and we all know there are no white folks getting their five minutes of fame and making money off of human conflict, right?

Not a single white person is showing up in the media anywhere blaming some other group for their problems, right?

Formenting discontent is the new lucrative industry and expressing how POd we are and choosing up sides is the new form of entertainment.

Did you miss that memo?

OK. We all know there is no crime in Fondren, Belhaven,or any other self proclaimed Hip / Historic
"district" in downtown Jackson .

So...grab a cup of expresso at your fave Gay coffee shop, and then sit back and squirm in all of your
goofy ass white progressive liberal guilt.

I would rather have lunch with the New Black Panthers, than a white guilt progressive.

BTW : The second Vespa that was stolen on
Hartfield last week, was last seen on Mill St.

I think I saw it......has some really cool rims on it now.

Remember all the crime is a direct result of school drop outs . So we have people against Charters???? Amazing.
