Jackson Jambalaya

Rankin County is lost......

During these uncertain times . . .
we're all in this together.


Even at the Pearl "Tinseltown theatre".


BTW . . . who won the cat fight ?

Appears to be an issue of "social justice." Will the Clarion Ledger, now focused on "social justice," cover it?

The exact same thing happened in Memphis a few weeks back at a family owned miniature golf and game center. They trashed the place causing thousands of dollars worth of damage. When are we gonna stand up and call this what it is? How much longer will we tolerate this unacceptable behavior? Go ahead KF, censor this.

The city of clinton shut down the cinema in their town by detaining minors on weekend nights who were dropped off with no supervision. Called the parents to come get them. Wasn't long after that they sold it to a church. Problem solved.

NOBODY goes to the movie anymore to watch a movie.

3:20, kids have been fighting for as long as there have been kids and hormones. Yes, white kids too.

Spend $300 on your hairdo for the weekend just to give your opponent that night something to grab on to.

Over the last 20 years, theaters have become magnets for crime. Lots of drugs exchanged.

Jackonians. Parents bring kids from ages 8, up, to the burbs, drop them off for someone else to worry with of for a little while. This used to happen in Ridgeland until the theater finally stopped unaccompanied minors from loitering outside the building or coming inside. They hired off-duty cops to enforce the rules and, all of a sudden, no more problems!! Ever wonder why there are no theaters in the City limits of Jackson!! Here you have it. Censor this, Kingfish. The truth is apparently racist.

3:51 x 2. I think kids shooting each other, like they sometimes do in Jackson, is a relatively new development.

" Spend $300 on your hairdo for the weekend just to give your opponent that night something to grab on to."

We have a winner within the first quarter.

Congrats 3:53 PM !

Don’t call the police call a parent! Parents do your jobs and we will have less police intervention!!!

They need to spank the parents too for allowing these brats to run a mock. Who wants to go to places like this. If your going to fight go and abandon parking lot. Nobody wants to see this crap. No wonder we can't have nice things.

The bystanders were so busy videoing that not one kid even tried to break it up. Sad.

When I was of age to be dropped off at a place to get entertainment I knew if I caused trouble that would pretty much be a detrimental effect on the home life. Parents need to instill a certain amount of fear in a child that if they do something wrong, there will be hell to pay.

No one in their right mind would own a movie theater, bowling alley or skating rink in rural Mississippi.

No Masks 25 and under just aren't wearing them in large numbers

We need to build a movie theater in Jackson.

Sincerely,

Rankin County

Is anyone shocked at this? What I AM shocked at is that no one started shooting........

What these kids are too dumb to understand is folks (white folks too) are willing to pay good money on PPV to see this kind of stuff. When they get angry at each other, they need to run down to the cage arena, hop in and "get ready to rumble!" there is no telling how much the better hair grabbers and face punchers could make. I see a great money making opportunity for some savvy promoter. They could fill the colosseum on most any Saturday night. The beer and cocaine sales alone would be incredible. I would volunteer my services as a cutter.

Pearl PD is very aggressive, they will not tolerate this for long.

Did anyone notice the little girl in the upper right who appears to be frightened. She seeks her sister/mama/whatever, who just shoves her off. At least that's what it appears to be, it's so fast and blurry. Either way, the whole thing is beyond disgusting.

Who needs high school football when we have this?

@12:50 PM these kids (and too many adults) are more concerned with standing by and posting street fight videos on their social media pages for likes, rather than doing the right thing and breaking this stuff up. Granted, some of these street fighters are also packing heat (likely not legally owned) along with a hot temper so it might be inadvisable to get physically involved in some cases.

It amuses me when people refer to Madison and Rankin as the "burbs". There are no suburbs in Mississippi. To have a suburb there would have to be a major city nearby. Jackson is not a major metropolis. I was born and raised in Mississippi, but I have traveled the country extensively. Trust me, this whole state is rural.
