Whatever happened to just dressing as a policeman, nurse, or superhero? Here are a couple of adults who generated some controversy in the Jackson area last week with their um, costumes.
This woman managed to get herself thrown out of Northpark Mall at Malloween yesterday. An event for kids. One doesn't have to look too closely at the pictures posted below to see why she was told to leave the mall. Security guards made sure she left very soon after she arrived at Malloween. She naturally made sure she recorded her removal. Good job, Northpark. Don't hesitate to do it again.
Then there is this knucklehead who appeared at a Halloween event at the Richland Community Center last week dressed as a slave.
Needless to say, this picture is causing a ruckus on Facebook. The person who took the picture told JJ that he first said someone told him to dress like that although The Kingfish is quite sure that no plantation or Birth of Nation exhibits were held at the community center last week. The photographer said he then said he was dressing as a voodoo doll. Chains but not pins? Oooook. Dude should've just followed Nancy Reagan's advice: Just say no.

All taste ain't good taste.
This nation is so raceaphobic. What would happen if someone showed up in a confederate uniform. Oh, My My.
'Splain the lady photos. What's the problem?
We have slaves today. It's call sex trafficking. Happens every day in America.
A woman comes to a public event for children shirtless, and you ask what's the problem. I'd say the problem is people like you who don't understand how inappropriate that is (or pretend they don't).
Kids' parties are not a place for adults in "sexy" costumes, although I'm not really sure what her costume is...a stripper at Black Diamonds, maybe?
She would have been more appropriately dressed for that block party in racially diverse, crime-free Fondren.
Oh yeah, six people were shot there, but Jackson has Parlor Market so it all evens out.
I don't see the problem with the lady in the bra and jeans. You would see more skin than that at the beach. In bad taste sure but worthy of removal from mall, no.
Once again it's the double standards. If a white person did something like this, they would be arrested and it would draw national media attention. Just like it's ok for a rapper to use the N word. It a white person would get fired for saying it
@8:14 Yeah, f--kin' A, because what people wear to the beach is appropriate EVERYWHERE, right genius?!
Next time I go to Chuck E. Cheese, I'm gonna go in my underwear. People wear less than that at the beach, so no problem.
Your logic is airtight, Shipdit. You HAVE to be a millennial with such a total lack of understanding regarding societal mores and customs.
8:55, no I am not a millennial I am a former Jackson resident who now lives in a major U.S. city. I would not be shocked to someone in similar dress here in the summertime. Maybe you should venture out more. What you do at Chuck E. Cheese is your business, but I imagine you would get some strange looks and comments.
Sir or madam, if you cannot comprehend why walking into a children's party in nothing but a brassiere is inappropriate and worthy of removal, then there's little else to say. I don't know which major US city you call home, but I'm glad that in Jackson we still expect people to cover themselves in a proper fashion, especially around small children.
What one wears to the pool or the beach is not the standard by which all attire is measured (seriously? that is the standard you choose to bring?). Quite the contrary. When people leave the pool or beach they cover up, and any place they visit afterward they would wear a shirt and shorts or a cover-up over their swimming attire. Most places would ask someone who isn't covered to leave, even in a major US city.
There's a reason men don't wear swimsuits to Lowe's and women don't shop at Kroger in a bikini. Maybe in your major US city they do, but here they don't, and I know that you understand why. I don't believe you are that obtuse, no matter how you may play this coy, "what's the big deal?" line.
a black guy wants to dress like a slave . . . big whoop
why is that such a problem? its not like hes saying bring it back or anything
i thought he was a clown or a zombie
Of course, the woman committed a more egregious sin. Can anyone figure it out?
Ummmm...she's really a dude?
KF, a better question might be, who really gives a damn?
She's white (I think) and she's at Northpark?
She was part of a gang of transvestites pepperspraying people in the food court? Wait, that was a long time ago. I didn't even know Northpark was still open.
Two cell phones?
The bra is see through?
Lee press-on nails?
A pink furry thing over her crotch?
Sunglasses indoors?
I give up.
Ah, body paint. She was wearing no bra at all. I'll give security a pass on that one. I am sure Mr. Prude above would have suffered a heart attack had he been witness.
Wearing a top like that as flat as she is? Hell, she could've gone topless and not gotten arrested because she would've passed for a dude. If you're going to wear that kind of top in public, at least have the body to go with it.
At least she didn't have on a clown outfit. What is the deal with all of the people scared of clowns? Only person who has seen one was that clown who thinks he is a law enforcement officer.
Fear of clowns is a trendy white people thing. I never met anyone who was afraid of clowns until the 90s, when Kramer said he was on an episode of Seinfeld. Suddenly it was cool (in a weird way) to be afraid of clowns.
Three millennial hipster trends that need to die:
1) Fear of clowns (99% "me too!" BS)
2) Bronies (more "me too!" crap that peaked, but is still around for some reason)
3) Claiming "Die Hard" is your favorite Christmas movie (looking at you, KF)
