Jackson Jambalaya

can we have English subtitles, please?

elected "officials" are a PERFECT reflection of their "electorate"

WLBT needs some super wider angle lenses..

Most likely it was untreated hypertension and heart failure that killed the mayor. He was a hard worker and it got him. He was driven like many workaholics. He was giving himself to others and the other elected officials know how hard Lumumba worked. The Honorable Ken Stokes should lose weight or he will heart issues. You cannot project onto others something you you need to for yourself.

should be on prime time national television to remind the world how far Mississippi has come...

He needed to get some attention and unfortunately, he got it.

You can't keep a race war paycheck coming in if you don't continually promote it.

Someone please tell me the extent of Stokes' education and where

why would they let that fool go on their tv station?

why would they let that fool go on their tv station?

Stokes needs to fire his tailor.

Possible future use for the man: he could play Ignatius Reilly in the movie version of *Confederacy of Dunces*---except for a couple of small problems. One, he's (by his own admission) a NEGRO, two, he's completely uneducated and cannot pronounce English. But he's got the "fat" and "lunatic" part down perfectly. Oh, how I'll miss his comic eructations, once his heart and/or pyloric valve explodes and sends him hurtling into the Great Beyond...

Malcom White always has a catchy theme for his St. Paddy Day Parade and his float. He really missed a great opportunity this year in honor of St.Patrick's Day. It could have been--- Who "Kilt" the Mayor?

Did anyone else feel like he had really long arms in this video?

Now, now, 9:59, there's no need to cast aspersions on the person who crafted his suit. It was probably not a haberdasher, but a circus tent maker. I had to watch this clip over and over, for the sheer joy of hearing his pronunciation of the dead mayor's name: "Chuck-way LaMOOOMba"---and his insistence that we must keep axin' da "qwustion".

I has me a qwustion, too: why, indeed, *did* WLBT (on-your-side!) stick this pathetic fool in front of the camera? I suspect it be because, in a way, they were trying to send a message to America that we Mississippians, far from being heinous, bigoted racists, are a besieged people struggling to cope with a burgeoning population of people who think/talk just like him. Only difference: the majority do not go on TV. They're far too busy plying their daily trades: robbing houses and beating up their frien'girls and their fourteen bastard chirrens.

"If this be error, and upon me proved..."

Diba dabba dabba kadoo!

Who is holding up the investigation ??? and why is he chastising WLBT and its viewers???

I say, bring on Eric Holder for a full blown inquest.

As a citizen of Jackson, I want to know.... WHO kilt Mayor ChokweLumumba ???

Stokes is crazy, there is no doubt about that. He has always been nuts. Yet, is he any different then those on the other side of the coin? The rankin county redneck republicans that say " I love guns, hate gays and love Jesus 27% more than my opponent." The ones who push non-issues like welfare drug testing, state tax holidays on gun sales and a million different types of abortion bills that won't do anything except cost the state money in legal fees defending unconstitutional bills? Stokes is out there but so is the radical right, its just a matter of perspective.

He should speak with a/some qualified professionals. Maybe have a "Come to Jesus" talk with himself.

Though I expect nothing less from Kennuf, even I was embarrased by that videographic display of ignorance.

11:11, you're an idiot

Lastly, it's been stated many times that stress is one of the major contributors to heart failure, so has anyone considered that Chokwe may have died from an overload of racial hate? Not only was his history of hate crystal clear, it was well known - and confirmed by several in his administration - that he absolutely hated white people.......maybe, that just got too much for his body to handle.......Flame all you want, but those are just the irrefutable facts.

I believe Donna Ladd knows something...... did you notice she was calling the 'media' irresponsible for covering the utterances of K Stokes ???

Donna , what are you hiding?
And when did you know that it was irresponsible to report anything K Stokes has to say???

Is it coincidence that Donna Ladd wants to muzzle the 'media'? She would be my first suspect, because, you know who has the most to gain from a derailed investigation???

Ah, the first of many "dog whistle calls" sent to the faithful flock, otherwise known as 80% of the for-sure voters in the next Jackson mayoral election scheduled for this upcoming April.

The dead mayor's son, the dead mayor that somebody sought to kill, the dead mayor that whitey hated, shall be revenged by his son, Chokwe Antar Lumumba, soon my friends, the dream shall live on forever and ever, free the peoples!!!

"11:11 you're an idiot."

11:46 that's a typical redneck response. Geez. I am sure you have your home boarded up and have enough ammunition stocked away to protect you from the invasion of evil gay people and drug addicted welfare recipients.

I believe Donna Ladd knows something......

Doubtful

WLBT racist? When it was owned by a black individual for years? (Frank Melton) When its primary news anchors are black?

I don't care if Stokes weighs 120 or 500 pounds, but from the looks of him he should be more concerned about his own health than what happened to the late Mayor. He's an embarrassment to the people of Jackson and Hinds County. How anyone could want him to represent them I just don't know. No wonder people continue to not want to live and shop other places. WLBT racist? No. Stokes? Yes.

I've had my doubts, but I now believe we were visited by extraterrestrials in the past. Fat, ugly, antisocial extraterrestrials.

Looking forward to the day I read his obit! Will LaRita get on WLBT and axe 'Who killded Kennuf?"

The Mayor died from complications of cancer. He was being treated out of state. It is rumored that he knew he was in a bad way when he was running for the office.

Should he have run, knowing he had a potentially terminal disease?

You be the judge.

Why can this idiot get on Tv and throw around this racist crap and get away with it? 3 dumb college kids at ole miss put a noose on a statute and they get run out of town. To think this guy is an elected official.

Welcome to the "New Mississippi" 8:18

A) Is Kenny related to Beetlejuice?

B) The answer is Yes. WLBT does know what killed the Mayor, so does every other media outlet. They decided not to report the news and keep it hidden, much as they did his racist past (and present).

tellin the butt nakid trufe ,,,, keepin it real

I heard somebody say it was Kenneth Stokes who killed the Mayor because he was 95% white, while Kenneth Stokes is 80% black. He can actually speak correct and proper English but when on camera talks with the mush mouth to anger white people and endear himself to black people.

11:46 compliments 11:11 by calling him an idiot. The hatred he spews is not worthy of an idiot.

Ya'll don't hate on Kenny. He really is a GREAT comic!!

Sorry. 11:11 is correct and what has killed us as an effective political party. These my way or phuck you dressed up bigots have killed the Reagan Republicans. Win these hick local stupid shit state of Mississippi arguments and get clobbered nationally. Good lord you right wingnuts are laughable.

mr. stokes you right WLPT call it the way they want u to see it keep the good work up you hav the wight to think what you want

Good Lord, 1:35PM, don't bring your busted iPhone text speak in here. It's bad enough that we had to listen to poorly-enunciated, paranoid Ebonics from an elected official.

1:35 another AA JPS dropout for sure. Read what you wrote, 1:35. Read it.. Good God son. Did you take any grammar courses. Any at all? To think you can even vote makes me shudder.

Thank you 1:16. One day fiscal conservatives are going to dump the Ayatollahs of the party as Goldwater intended. If we don't then we are going to remember the Obama administration with fond memories of "the good ole times." This nation has moved past the abortion nuts, homophobes and loving Jesus more than your neighbor crowd. It's time to start acting like Americans and be a progressive party. These right wing nuts belong with the Taliban

Yes 6:07. Fiscal conservatives. Not morality Nazis. Thank you. 1:16 here. "Sales tax holiday" on ammunition. What a bunch of laughable rubes.

Talk about destroying the Queens English. Did you skip language class Kenny???? You and you wife are an embarrassment to Hinds County.

My IQ dropped tremendously after reading the comment from 1:35.
Was that a comment from Kenny Stokes?
My God! So sad!

11:11, 6:07 and the rest of the times you posted---your comments says a great deal about you. Such anger and hatred. How very sad on so many levels. Please understand that no amount of anger and hate can turn a Christian from the Lord.

10:26, I had heard that about Kenny as well (actually speaks correct and proper English). Never knew if it was true or not.

His real name is Kenneth and he is quiet articulate. I wish he would quit trying to pass as ghetto and just be himself. He is no more ghetto than my very proper english grandmother. He felt so strongly about the plight of the poor blacks that he made it his life's mission to help them anyway he could. Reverend Kenneth councils them, marches with them, hold signs with them and help them with their problems with the "MAN".

His real name is Kenneth and he is quiet articulate

We all wish he was quiet. However, he is "quite" an embarrassment.
