When the happens 50,000 more times then Jackson may solve their crime problem and should be able to focus on infrastructure. I believe every Jacksonian with a clean record should get a deeply discounted Concealed Carry Permit.

An armed society is a polite society.
And only a tyrannical government fears armed citizens

How can we make criminals pay for their medical care and incarceration costs instead of innocent taxpayers?

I read the Lumumba gibberish and never could identify the "plan". What the hell was her "plan" ?

I wish I could shoot at every male who sexually harrasses me in public. Tends to be older white men. They need to be taught a lesson.

3:42 That used to bother the heck out of me and then I got older and it seemed overnight nobody looked my way anymore. While I understand your discomfort I also tend to miss the attention. Now everybody is super nice and calls me mam while they try not to look at me.

3:42 You win the award for most blatant racist statement of the month. And that is quite an accomplishment on this site.

If it wasn't for the catcall I don't think we'd have ever gotten married and had all those kids. True story. I do admit to being somewhat offended when she did it, but when she got out of the car I decided I would overlook it, just this once, good gracious. Aw shucks ma'am...

The problem I have with women complaining about men paying attention to them is that in most cases they just complain about the men that do it that aren't attractive to them, but if he's attractive then they get all doe-eyed. And then you may be completely misreading his intentions, just being nice can be mistaken for something else sometimes.

Mississippi has Constitutional Carry, you don't need any permit to carry concealed in most places. You don't gain a huge amount with the regular permit unless you travel out of state, the MS permit is recognized in 30-something states now, and anywhere you travel in the southeast you are good to go. The enhanced permit does give some advantages, but some effort must be made to obtain it.

Some with the more cowboy mentality need to be warned occasionally...you can only shoot when there is no other choice. Shooting to protect property is frowned upon. If you do get charged, even if you're acquitted, you're very likely going to have enough legal costs to ruin you, or at least cramp your style somewhat.

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.
