Where did our beautiful once vibrant proud city go? It hurts to think that all of the hard work and effort that went into building this city has declined to the same effect as a third world country. Our duly elected governor, well, both...the outgoing should have done something but felt with him being from outside Jackson he didn’t give a rats ass....and now we have one who could even care less for that matter to take control. But, what do you do with a corrupt radical mayor who had a dad that was more racially divisive than you could ever imagine. With Lumumba SR (and I do not care to say all three names thank you) and Bennie Thompson both belonging to a terrorist organization what would you ever expect? He taught his son well on how to move Jackson into the essence of a third world country.
another day, another shooting...
Poor bastard was just getting ready to go to work.
Lock and load. Keep an extra mag on hand.
And now a wife has to bury her husband who was trying to orovide
to 10;23am...........you and all the other SEC educated keyboard cowboys on this site seem to equate "a third world country" as a place of political instability, violence, ignorance and the like. i live in a small spanish speaking country in the carribbean, which is considered "third world" by many americans, however we dont have anywhere near the problems that you just described in your rant. maybe you, with all your unrecognized brilliance , should reevaluate your definition of 'third world country'.
That's seriously messed-up when you have to arm yourself to go out and warm your car up in the morning. And, they wonder why the city tax base is shrinking...
Just another day in paradise for the lawless thugs. Making this place a s-hole for the rest of us.
So true 11:15, we’ve become numb to the event. What does that say about us and our states capital?
81 or 82?
I guess Baby Chok's latest anti-crime initiative hasn't germinated yet.
Come on jacktown, you have thirteen more days to hit 100. We are depending on y'all.
Wheel choke talks about gun violence being a problem. It's plain ole violence instilled in his and others people. Shame it is focuses in Jackson, but until you get people to act right gun, knife, car, pipe, or other violence will continue and never abate.
Does anybody believe that it will improve in the future. The most recent county elections don't look promising for Jackson residents.
Laughed heartily as Mayor StrawGrasper puffed up his chest feathers and boasted to Maggie Wade that he's going to have three JPD recruiting classes in his 4 years while Yarber only had one.
Jackson Zoo (and Jackson's $6,000,000 collection of animals) has been closed 78 days.
1:36 - I don't believe you understand the problem. It has nothing to do with elections. It has nothing to with the number of police on the streets. It has everything to do with the breakdown of once civilized culture. And the root cause of this breakdown can be traced back to the breakdown of the family unit within this culture, and that started approximately 50+ years ago.
I thought the chief said people in Jackson only shoot people they know. If you don’t know someone you should never shoot them.
Drug deal gone bad. No way I believe that story.
My condolences to the innocent family and friends.
Today Baby Chock blamed it "gun kul'cha".
But he didn't say one word about the failure of the Jackson/Hinds County legal system.
I would shake my head, but I won't.
It's just another day in Jackson, Mississippi.
@3:06 PM - yes, he did. It was more spin directed by mayor baby chok to address the perception of crime in his radical city.
Wasn't too long ago that a Madison resident went out and cranked his car, left it running to warm up and it was immediately stolen by a Jackson thug familiar with the man's routine. I raise my garage door most mornings before daylight and am always armed when I do it. I'll keep a light on for ya.
Jeremy was armed or he was usually because of the neighborhood. His gun is missing, probably shot with it as the guy was trying to steal it. Jeremy was disabled and had 4 boys under the age of 13. Prayers to his family
