Jackson Jambalaya

What a total waste of money and resources. As senseless as Stokes' annual MLK parade with complimentary charter-bus transportation for the yoot.

You're up at 4:02 AM talking trash about a Easter Egg Hunt? What's wrong with you?

7:05; You're up at 7:00 yacking about the time stamp of a post when you could be commenting on the subject at hand? I got home at 3:15 a.m. from running product to Meridian. You need an enema.

Enemas all around. For gosh sakes...

This is very positive and an event that can be enjoyed by children and their families. Other area cities have egg hunts as well.

Shadowfax just can't help himself.

This is good for the small kids in Jackson who just want a happy Easter as well as the parents who do not live in the best parts of town, such as a bad apartment complex. Children, unfortunately, do not have the choice of where they live nor of the adults that are around them.

I do hope this goes well and a fun time is had by all who attend.

I don't care if Kingfart blows colored eggs out his ass, it's a waste of government resources. Let the churches or community organizations pay for this nonsense.

Can any of the older people remember an Easter egg hunt when they were a child? The way I remember it they actually hid the eggs. Take a look how they do it today.

5:25....the egg hunts you remember were either orchestrated by your parents or your church. Not a black city administration wasting taxpayer dollars. Stand by to read about a parent being shot at the annual Jackistan egg chase. It will happen. Count on it. And Kingfoot will start a new column about lawlessness in Jackistan.

Madison has one too each year but that is ok. This year it rained so they gave the goodies away to the kids that showed up.

Really? When was this Madison Easter Egg Hunt this year?

March 22, 2016 at 3:12 PM, you are a nasty excuse for a human being.
Cities of Canton, Flowood, Madison, and Ridgeland are all hosting egg hunts, to name a few Mississippi cities.
Happy Easter a**hole.

"...you are a nasty excuse for a human being. Happy Easter a**hole."

Easter is a Christian occasion. "Happy Easter" is a misnomer. Somber reflection is called for, not 'happy happy'. Easter is an occasion for reflection on Christ's life and resurrection, not a time to celebrate rabbits, blue eggs and politicians. Egg hunts have nothing to do with Christianity. Nor do rabbits lay eggs. No matter which towns sponsor such frivolity, it's a waste of tax-payer money. Digest that asshole!

A Christian who wishes others might have a 'happy Easter' and then calls them asshole is an odd creature. Perhaps he could become a blog-host. Or already has.

"Happy" about the resurrection.
Rabbits, eggs and such are non-related and a fun tradition. I didn't see anyone say that eggs and Christianity were related. Aware that rabbits don't lay eggs. Lighten up. Watch a Cadberry commercial - "bok-bok!" Children should have fun. It is fine for municipalities to budget for family fun. They also provide other similar events such as safe trick-or-treating, carnivals, concerts, etc. Don't like it? Run for office. Though it would be hard for Scrooge to get elected.
Seriously, Happy Easter. Enjoy your weekend, however you choose to celebrate.

I happened upon a news segment on WLBT this morning. It featured the famed 'Easter Egg Hunt of Jackistan'. What I saw (subject to correction by the smart-mouthed Christians out there) were about a hundred kids running into a field strewn with multiple hundreds of boiled, colored eggs, none 'hidden'. An egg appeared to be 'laid' every foot and a half as if they'd just been dumped out of buckets. This is not what I remember as an Easter Egg Hunt. Nothing was 'hidden'. There was no 'hunt'. Only running along trying to pick up as many as humanly possible befoe somebody else got to them.

What lesson was learned here?
