Jackson Jambalaya

Never doubt that commies are prepared and waiting for the right series of events and weakness to repeat the success of Red October and Castro's overthrow of Batista.

I'm not familiar with that organization. I love belonging to groups. Are they accepting membership applications from white folk?

PS: I promise to tow the line and recite the group's mantra with heels clicked sharply together.

I love it. If we didn't have some fun and games life in Jackson would be unbearable. A sense of humor goes a long way. Thanks comrades.

Wait, what?! "[T]he Jackson Kush Plan _ PROJECT _...?! Heck, I thought that had come to fruition about 10 or 15 years back.

Are you telling me that Jackson is the third-world shithole that it is but it isn't yet fully and firmly under the control of, and being run by, a bunch of dumbasses who claim to be "democratic socialists" while doing their best to imitate Mugabe and Mbasago? Are you telling me it's gonna get WORSE?! Oh, lord...is anyone hunting at the zoo with an RPG?!

Not commies, just Black Nationalists struggling for relevance. Now that they ARE the power structure of Jackson, they're running out of white devils to fight against and blame.

Who is this group?

Oh the Kushians just got 90 Million large that's burning a hole in King Chokwe's pocket. You didn't catch the last sentence of his press conference yesterday? "BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY" That's the last line of the FREE THE LAND! mantra.

I’m totally against the One lake, two lake, green lake?’c blue lake plan(s).... but this is either funny or very scary....

"By Any Means Necessary" is the title of a book penned by none other Malcolm X.

At least they didn't spell it Komrade.

The Republic of Nude Africans has done lost their collectivist minds.

Why do you oppose the plan? Taxes? Gentrification? Some other reason I'm missing?

Gentrification is bad?

It would only be scary if there were more than two consecutive brain cells connecting on the effort at any one time.

I oppose One Lake because it will be useless for fishing and swimming. Who wants to play in water south of Jackson's sewage release? Yucky

Can someone explain to me how the One Lake project is a "gentrification and displacement" scheme ? When an area is gentrified, that means a depressed area of town has new development, which can sometimes (but not always) lead to the lower class being replaced with middle class.
So to oppose gentrification means you oppose economic development which brings new jobs, more money, a better community, etc. But Cooperation Jackson is opposed to that ? I thought the Mayor's goal was to have increased economic development, new and better paying jobs, etc ???
But more importantly, the One Lake project is to be developed on now unoccupied lane that presently is under about 10 feet of water. No one lives there now. So it will not gentrify any lower class neighborhood or displace any current residents as the post by Cooperation Jackson claims.
Sadly, as the post says, the real aim here is to prevent "changing the demographics" which is a nice way of saying we don't want or need any more white people in Jackson. My God. That's real "cooperation", isn't it ? Sadly these people are as racist as the ones they complain about, and as a result the City of Jackson will remain where and what it is, a depressed and dying city.

Sorry KF but most of these bloggers got no sense of humor at all. In fact some of them are really scary...unlike the kushites and the gentrified ant-gentrification crowd who are really hilarious.

Jackson got paved a long time ago.

Gentrification? Are you kidding me?! Your own supervisor is pushing for this plan! As is YOUR MAYOR! Get with the program.

when a city gentrifies, the poor just don’t disappear. they move. to low rent places in the suburbs. madison, clinton (thanks to MC), flowood, and brandon have high rent for houses. good luck to the rest of them..

Can't understand how a lake..or two.. down around the fairgrounds could help in any way to reduce flooding back upstream in north Jackson?

About all that water rushing down the Pearl, I recall that the Reservoir was to be lowered significantly a few months ago in an effort to clean up the plant life. If that was done why is there so much water now coming over the spillway? Has that left wing Climate Change cataclysm hit Mississippi?

It’s because it can handle a larger volume of water over that larger surface area without the increase in water level height that you now see when the reservoir has higher discharge rates

You really should go to their website
