Jackson Jambalaya

I miss the one's from our former sheriff Tyrone.

Does Stokes not know it's illegal to drive tacks or nails into a power/utility pole or does Cupid have some sort of special dispensation in this case?

@ 11:15 Since when did Stokes care about following the law?

Picture it Jackson, Mississippi 2018 a naked Kenneth Stoke with a arrow and wings show love.

i just threw up a little, 7:56..

I always felt like those signs and billboards were so dang corny. But only in Mississippi will you see that foolishness and their constituents ate that mess up.

Thank you all for your negativity this morning. Our public officials try to do some positive community outreach and the folks on JJ just have to poo poo on it.

11:15 The sign ordinance does not apply to Kennuf or anyone else named Stokes and you must be the Ku Klux Klan for bringing up the subject!

7:56. . .You know there are limits to what others can handle. . .

Thanks 7:56, you just helped me with my New Year's resolution...

Hmmm - I wonder where Victor's signs and billboards are? Maybe he delivers those in person, ifyouknowwhatimean...

@ 8:40 - If he had wanted to do anything other than glorify himself, he'd have taken the money he spent on that billboard and bought a few groceries for a few elderly people. THAT would have been "positive community outreach". A picture of oneself on a billboard is NOT.

8:15am, you're so wrong. Constituents don't "eat that mess up." Shortly after Lewis' love billboards went up, he lost the next election. He did a subpar job and was booted out. His constituents did the right thing.

You are so right. Kenny Stokes" Black , uneducated constituents are so dumb. They seem to appreciate Kenny's low cost and hand posted signs. Boy those Black folks are stupid.

Now let's compare Stokes approximately $300 (out of his own pocket) in signs against what the Republicans in the MS Legislature and Congress have done for their "smart" and educated White voter/constituents.

1. Given "TRILLIONS" of dollars of tax breaks to multinational corporations. Corporations, who at the Federal level who rely on the multi trillion dollar (on and off the books)US Military to protect their assets and personnel around the world. Money that could be used for infrastructure repair and improvements and new projects. You educated Republican voters feel smarter than Kenny Stokes' uneducated folks?

2. At the state level the MS legislature has given 400 million dollars of tax breaks (the latest round to add to the hundreds of millions of dollars give to mostly out of state corporations in the past decade). Theoretically these tax cuts would result in accelerated investment and economic growth to "pay for " the cuts. Kansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Indiana and Wisconsin have tried this strategy. Surprise it didn't work in those states and I bet it certainly won't work in MS. You educated Republican voters feel smarter than Kenny Stokes' uneducated folks?

I could go on and on. Black folks get demonized for minuscule reportedly wasted public funds and supporting less than "White folks popular" elected officials while White folks sit back and grin and even applaud when their elected officials waste TRILLIONS of dollars, up front, in public and with contempt for their electorate. You educated Republican voters feel smarter than Kenny Stokes' uneducated folks?

I'm really disappointed Ashby doesn't have a billboard near Lefluer East.

Ashby probably missed the scheduled photo shoot like he does most council meetings. That guy is awful... just awful. He's far from being in the know in terms of the agenda. My gosh can NE Jackson get some one with street smarts rather than someone that has there head up there own arse.
