Fight the Power!

A Hinds County Public Defender advocate abolishing the police.  Mr. Adofo Minka, Esquire  wrote in the Black Agenda Report:


For those who may be confused, we must be clear. Pointing to Laurel Police Department’s swift punitive actions against the officers who violated Barrett’s human rights is not an endorsement of LPD or any law enforcement agency. Swift punishment for officers who violate the constitutional and human rights of civilians should be par for the course. There is no model police department because in our eyes, such an entity represents a fiction that flies in the face of our political principles and ideology as revolutionaries. Our position is clear. LPD, JPD and every other law enforcement agency throughout this country and internationally needs to be disarmed and abolished. From their inception, they have been used as an occupying force and means of social control of the popular masses and a personal military force and buffer for the wealthy ruling class elites who steal the labor and build wealth on the backs of the popular masses. We simply use the situation in Laurel to pull the covers off of a municipal government administration that claims to be the most radical on the planet, but in actuality it is not even the most “radical” in the central Mississippi region when it comes to holding police accountable to the human rights principles of accountability, transparency, equity, universality and participation.

Read the rest of his essay.    This apostle of Rousseau does everything but call the Mayor a sellout.   You can't make this up.

Abolishing the police department would certainly help Minka’s job performance. He is an absolute embarrassment to trial lawyers everywhere. Like that time judge Weil through him in jail for contempt after he intentionally caused a mistrial because he was unprepared, had no defense, and resorted to telling the jury that the prosecutor and the judge were conspiring to convict his client. The Mississippi Supreme Court affirmed his contempt conviction.

My favorite sentence in his pile of gibberish:

Disband the task force appointed by Lumumba because it is not a genuine representation and expression of the popular masses, but instead is little more than an appendage of the state and its manipulative machinations of the people.

Ummm @ 5:28....

I think you meant "threw", instead of "through".

What a bunch of communist propaganda at the place that was published. The "human-rights activist" who said we could learn a lot from Venezuela is a perfect example. The Black Agenda huh, who woulda think it?

" Our political principles and ideology as revolutionaries."

These clowns are too funny.

Memories of Garrett Morris on 1970's SNL episodes . . . Idi Amin Dada.

Well, I guess we could start with a "NO Popo Tuesday" and see how it goes, right?

Yes, please abolish the police...and then build a fence around Jackson and provide security corridors for folks who work there. Next, hire private security contractors, grant them immunity, and allow them to use deadly force to protect property in addition to life. Most of the thugs will be dead in about a year and then the city can be re-populated.

As a child, I didn’t like school. So let’s abolish teachers!

And while we are at it, get rid of the activist preachers, the likes of which are all over Jackson. Where do you think he gets his material, he can't think that up on his own.

This is a great idea. The only hope for Jackson to be a nice City again is to just let the residents kill each other off.

There is a great deal of discontent in Jackson's black community with Antar. It isn't just Minka. Antar's gallivanting all over the country to flap his gums while those in Jackson have to deal on a daily basis with the misery of this cratering city has not gone over at all. Antar presented himself as a political black wunderkind who was going to achieve rapid results. He isn't and he hasn't.

We Don't Need No Stinkin' Laws said...

While we're at it, abolish all traffic laws. Woo hoo.

As I wasted precious minutes reading that idiotic word salad, I was reminded on the old Damon Wayans skit about the jailhouse *intellectual* who used big words to sound intelligent but was really spouting gibberish. But it is funny seeing this otherwise ideological ally of the mayor, trashing him instead.

In the next to last paragraph he call for ending law enforcement however, in the last paragraph he calls for Jackson to follow his list of demands but leaves off ending law enforcement for the city. I guess he covers that under "all of the above".


I'm sorry did I roll my eyes to loud?

11:36 - no way! Traffic citations (when they are paid) result in 'mo money for the government...

Law enforcement has been around for a long time. The first constables (from the Roman comes stabuli, or “head of the stables”) with duties very similar to today’s sheriffs, were around at least since the 9th century, and traveled to the Americas from Europe to supplant the systems that existed there at the time in the 1600s.

At the time of the 9th century, there were roughly 350 million people on earth... the same as the population today in the United States...
The current earth population is roughly 7.4 billion people, more than 20 times the population when they figured out they needed formal law enforcement.

What is the proposal for maintaining an orderly civilization without law enforcement?

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.

Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. 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.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease.
