Imagine what it would be like if crime was not coming down in Jackson.
Stay Woke, Jacktown!
Rear end someone on the interstate and get shot. This is concerning, as many of us do have to pass through Jackson. The majority have enough sense to not actually stop, but now the interstate is a firing range.
A good start would be to not rear end somebody on the interstate
Idiots with anger and guns. God help us all. This must stop but not by taking sane people's guns.
4:10 No joke Sherlock. But a rear-end shouldn't lead to attempted murder.
3 people are killed by guns per hour in the US and we now are close to averaging 1 mass murder a day.
Those commenting shouldn't travel anywhere but especially don't drive through Baton Rouge, Memphis, Chattanooga, Orlando or Little Rock and OMG, never go to Fort Lauderdale.
You do know that Jackson's crime rate is about like Wichita, Kansas' rate, don't you?
And, oh...scary...don't go to Oklahoma City ! The crime rate is worse than Detroit's!
And y'all do know Indianola has a higher crime rate than Jackson's and Greenville, MS is a close to Jackson's, right?
But, keep your heads in the sand. Or just build a wall around Pleasantville.
Something about this story sounds fishy.
@ 4:10 - so you are buying his story? He was just driving down the INTERSTATE HIGHWAY, minding his own business, when he accidentally succeeded in performing the very challenging task of rear-ending a vehicle traveling at 75 MPH?? Really?
8:11 you must be one of the few that actually believes the fake stats JPD puts out for the gullible.
