Jackson Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba threatened to drop the hammer on any business or person who violated his mandatory mask order. Well, Mr. Mayor, here is a good place for you to start: Mbar Club.
Check out the video. It is a typical nightclub that is hoppin' and poppin' on a Saturday night. Notice anything missing?
What was it you said, Mr. Mayor? $300 fines? Revoking business licenses?
Oh, and in case anyone accuses this website of picking on this club because of well, alleged ethnicity, here is a get together that took place yesterday at the end of Meadowbrook. These pictures appeared on a social media app.
The kids partied on the Pearl River. The photographer posted this message:
PLEASE if you have a high school, college, or any young person in your home, call them and see if they are at the Pearl River. Meadowbrook Road is completely blocked from Honeysuckle down to the end of Meadowbrook and their are license plates from Madison, Pearl, all over town and so many bottles and “paraphernalia” on the streets. THIS is how covid is spreading so fast and I am infuriated as I sit here feeding my infant and think about family that is compromised. PLEASE!!! This is so disheartening after we have all been home for months!!! Do your part! Neighbors are calling police.What will the Mayor do?

Partying in poop water...do the kids not know there is a no contact warning for the Pearl? YUCK.
Next!
say buh-buy to football this season..
If you are tattling on people for partying during the 4th of July, then you're missing the reason for the 4th of July. Worry about your own house, Karen.
crickets-
Of course he won't enforce his edict on Club M... that would be insensitive and taking advantage of an unfortunate misunderstanding between some of the fine folk he relies on for re-election. Besides, if he shut down a club that caters to predominately minority leaning folks, he would cause a confusion of epic proportion for those ultra-caring committee for poor folk crowd when they try to start wringing their hands and crying racism but find there was no white folks involved.
Hmmm... guess what we really need is for the Governor to suspend some more laws, grant some special privileges, send a few extra million dollars to the Mayor, and maybe grant a preemptive pardon for poor Mr. Javarius Stewart. I'm sure it wasn't his fault, he was just unduly burdened by the impending pressure of having to pay his water bill.
Unconfirmed but heard through the kudzu that all fall HS sports to be cancelled.
License plates from Pearl? Ok
I am no fan of Mayor McChuckmeat, but I am a fan of fair and to be fair, I see no indication that he wasn't talking about the M Bar Club or whatever it's called and any and every other place that isn't following proper guidelines, regardless of who the typical clientele might be. On the mask issue, I agree with it and support him 100% *if* he attempts to administer it across the board, be it on Martin's, Club Shootout, or wherever else folks gather without using some common sense.
Selfish selfish kids... The Karen’s will be alive when this is all over. Hope your parents and grandparents are too.
Just what we need, less idiots and more Karens. God save us.
I'm proud to see the ranks of Team Chaos swell. If Corona-chan can't find new hosts and spreaders then she may die out. Keep up the good work!
-Team Chaos
“PLEASE!!! This is so disheartening after we have all been home for months!!!”...
This sentence explains why the kids are there. They have been home for months! No prom, no graduation, football season and a normal return to school looked like a long shot well before this get together. They want to be teenagers and have had so much taken away already. Of course they want to go to a party!
How many political buzz words do y'all need to express yourselves?
I would remind you, however, that the original " Karen" was one of your own.
Cancel ALL sports until 2022 just to make sure. Spend quality time with your families before you die.
Oh NO... prom??! The horror!
By all means... spread the covid!!! Don’t worry about our grandparents that, you know, fought in a war at this age for years. I mean, you didn’t get a PROM.
Pearl license plates....just confirms that everybody outside of Rankin county assumes everybody in Rankin county is from Pearl. Haha
1:16 previous poster didn’t just say prom. Lots of other things being cancelled for these kids including entire sports seasons. For senior athletes that won’t play in college, this has been a tough time for them. But you keep sheltering in place. Guessing “Karen” or her male equivalent couldn’t get a date to prom in their day
I wish our kids could have had a "regular school experience", but it didn't happen. Hopefully those kids will come out of this with a better grasp of what is truly important and life lessons that will lift them to greater successes in the future.
Let the kids have fun. Get off your high horse and don’t see any of the kids if you don’t want corona. Simple as can be. While you keep raging they will keep having fun
These NE Jackson private school kids around the Meadowbrook area sure do cause alot of chaos
So, is the rule you can cram as many people as you want into any space in Jackson as long as everyone wears a mask?
I can see from the one of Karen's photos that she is not wearing her seat belt, nor are her hands at 10 and 2 while she snaps photos, all while she commits the act of distracted driving. Call 911 now! Alert the authorities about this rule breaker! Doesn't Karen know that people die every day from such reckless behavior! The horror!
The COVID fatality rate in Mississippi for kids below the age of 18 is zero. Zip. Nada. Not a single person under the age of 18 has died in Mississippi. They have a greater likelihood of being struck by lightning while playing a high school sport than dying from COVID.
If they have a vulnerable relative, then they need to isolate from the relative. Depriving these kids of a normal high school experience, under these conditions, is a form of child abuse.
6:00. just wait. kids under 18 have died from covid-19 in surrounding states. its going to happen to someone in MS sooner or later..
" How many political buzz words do y'all need to express yourselves?"
Laughing at that one.
That was funny !
I can think of a few buzz words and phrases.
Let's see . . .
"In these uncertain times"
"In these challenging times"
" We're all in this together"
(Start the the two key piano tune . . . we have to make commercials sound deep and serious . . .
Que the cliche images of diverse people . . . and continue).
" Your safety is our biggest concern"
Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah.
The ad companies represent the pinnacle of Captalism and the mobs are to stupid to understand this basic fact.
MBar has been shut down so you can quit wondering what will be done.
It's a lie that nobody under the age of 18 has died. I see dead kids walking around everywhere disguised as zombies. Skinny jeans, purple hair, zippers down, shoes untied, uncertain sexual assignments.
8:02...you forgot “unprecedented,” I’m permanently excising that word from my vocabulary.
No worries. The police officers have been told to use their discretion on enforcement and they don't actually respond to reports of large gatherings and no masks even if you call them. They just "put it on rounds" so they drive by when they have a minute.
So they Mayor makes big threats to the community and then tells the cops not to enforce. Hypocrite much?
About kids and COVID-19, it is the same with adults insofar as concentrating on "death rate." Simply Google "Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children" or "MIS-C" for more information. Here is a non-scientific article from the Mayo Clinic to provide some information:
www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/coronavirus/in-depth/mis-c-in-children-covid-19/art-20486809
If you love and care about kids, you do not want them to get this or learn from adults to take it lightly. While it is true that the odds are greatly in their favor that they won't die from a COVID-19 infection, it is also true that more survive gunshot wounds than die from them. No one with any sense would suggest that it is fine for children to be shot because the odds are that they won't die, so why would anyone with any sense suggest it is fine for them to become infected with COVID-19 because the odds are that they won't die?
Just like adults, this isn't a binary event for children in that an infected person either gets it and has no effects or dies. It is a broad spectrum situation with a range of potential effects, from no readily-observable presentation of effects other than being infectious themselves to death, with most having all having at least one short-term negative effect - being infectious, and many having mid- to long-term negative effects. That is the current data from all cohorts and age groups.
That “just let kids have fun” party caused many MANY kids to test positive on Monday for the virus. Half the football team from JA tested positive.
