This guy is a total clown! He needs to focus on his constituents rather than worry about this other cap he has absolutely NO authority over. Get over it your a city councilman. All I hear is more government more government more government and tax the rich in Northeast jackson. Can someone please give this moron a lesson of 101 economics. Here's a clue... it isn't government. This clown has done much more harm than good. Get a clue you total dumb a$$... there is a reason your ward looks the way it does.

I was under the impression the Jackson city council had many important things to discuss.
Now I see why they never get anything done.

Let the record show that the honorable right gentleman across the chamber does not have a college degree, and that he should tend to his business and let others tend to theirs!!!

If this idiot wanted to actually achieve something he wouldn't start with this. I live in ward one NE Jackson so I have no voting power in terms of stamps getting elected or not however if we did the educated higher income population would never be in office and he and stokes both know that. They simply play to there base voters only. Sa

He left out the resolution regarding moving people from welfare to work.

Stamps is all talk no action. Kingfish can you please post anything that Stamps has done for Jackson.

How about the $25k the city attorney wants to replace carpet because “on Wednesday, September 13, 2017, a customer entered into the office of the city attorney building, and he unknowingly was bleeding from his leg profusely. The wound left a trail of blood from the main entrance of building to the front of the secretarial area.”

Or the $25k that stokes wants to give a police officer because he “now faces physical and fiscal challenges from a serious illness of approximately eight months.”

Isn't this the same person who believes that there were groups of Africans in the new world before Europeans arrived? Could we run that one past Henry Louis Gates?

Mayor Sloganeer blows hot air, why can't Stamps?

These are words spoken by a person that has obviously never created a job and has clearly never taken a economics class. Stamps could stand to look around and figure out why Jackson businesses are leaving the city. This is coming from a Jackson resident by the way. They aren't leaving due to lack of government. This is infuriating. I hope Ashby Foote, priester and Virgi put the quash on this time wasting agenda. They seem to be the only intelligent council members.

A couple of years ago I was watching (I think on public access channel) an awards ceremony for civic leadership in the "hood". Mr. Stamps got up and started talking about how "they" were trying to kill the black people in Michigan via lead contamination in the public drinking water supply. He said he would not allow "them" to do that in the great city of Jackson. What a racist buffoon. By the way the ceremony was very entertaining...I thought it was a comedy at first until I realized it was total incompetence.

Remember Eric Fleming of recent democrat legislative fame in the State of Mississippi? He eventually lost reelection a few years ago; however, while there, he introduced something like sixty bills every year, none of which ever saw the light of day.

Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right....

At least Stamps talks and brings attention to his District unlike professor foote. He just sits there and never says a thing. He should use the microphone to stand up for his minority district.

Anonymous said...

All of these issues appear to be valid concerns for any metropolitan area what's the problem. As to the length of the meeting are they paid by the hour?

Anonymous said...

Maybe he should run for a state legislative seat.....plenty of nonsensical resolutions passed there.

Anybody named "Dekeither" has lost me at hello.

Foote has NO backbone! Next republican that opposes him I'm voting for. He's useless. For a guy that attended west point academy he is a weak SOB.

Anonymous said...

Foote has NO backbone... I love it. Hilarious! I hear comments like this all the time from ward 1. People are not pleased with his non actions to say the least. Hell... at least follow Virgi on the votes if you are confused. It's unreal how clueless and weak this man actually is. No backbone I have to use that next time.

He could easily be elected to The House. After all, you people did elect Cecil Brown. Over. And. Over.

Stamps should apply this quote to his daily life. " it is better to remain silent and appear stupid rather than open your mouth and remove all doubt"
That's the best advice anyone can give him after seeing his wasteful agenda items.

Anonymous said...

Really? Comparing Stamps to Cecil Brown? And you want to be taken seriously?

Anonymous said...

I remember when this race baiting poverty pimp called for a boycott on any business outside of Jackson. I called him and chewed him out as I have a business outside the city and I am a resident of jackson. He didn't seem to comprehend the conversation well. That's when I realized he is a total and complete moron elected by morons in his ward.he could never be elected by northeast Jackson Madison Ridgeland etc... educated population.

Anonymous said...

Cecil Brown never accomplished a damned thing and neither will Stamps. So, yes, in that regard, they do compare.

Hey people,
Don't blame Stamps here. It's not his fault that he doesn't understand basic rules of economics!!! Understanding that money goes where it is treated best is a simple concept to grasp. That's why my business is located in flowood and I live in Jackson. The tax on inventory in Jackson is a old dead almost non existent system. He has no understanding of this. Anyone know his education background?

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.

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.
