Fool's names, like fool's faces are often seen in public places.

Elvis always gave credit to the Black Churches for influencing his musical style.

But in today's nonsense, he would be accused of cultural appropriation.

Had it not been for opioids and forty fried peanut butter & banana sandwiches every night at 2:00 AM,
Elvis may have lived way beyond his forties.

There has always been spray painted graffiti on the wall at Graceland. The only reason it is mentioned today is because it supports black people.

So, when does this end?

Between this, the other cities being raped and Covid, we are a lost country.

You are too funny lil' one !

4:58, being a bit dramatic there. There are plenty of white musicians today who take inspiration from black musicians and they aren’t accused of cultural appropriation. Why would that be different for Elvis? Of course any idiot with a blog can make any accusation they want, but does anyone actually believe there would be a large public sentiment shaming Elvis?

Elvis would have abandoned Graceland decades ago.

Hey 5:42, why don't you mention the 2,000 people shot in Chicago year to date? Oh yeah, that doesn't fit the Marxist narrative.

Graceland rakes in tons of money. They should install super high resolution video security cameras & then track these hooligan down. Bring back the chain gang & make them use swing a swing blade on the side of the road.

Notice anything different?

As for how the radical left would treat Elvis today, I think he would be fine. He sang 'black' songs at a time when many white singers would not. He was comfortable around blacks and was extremely generous to the poor. He might not pass all their 'political correctness' tests, but if everyone was as racist as Elvis racism wouldn't be a problem.

8:07 - Its a completely separate topic. Do you not think there is a difference when a citizen kills a citizen versus a government agent killing a citizen?

5:42 Please do not say this crap supports black people. This stuff USES black people. Anarchists who are mostly white want to foment violence and societal overthrow and will use any pretext that gets them additional support. BLM has proved to be very useful.

Sorry KF but "protesters" did not hit Graceland. Vandals hit Graceland. A few popular slogans does not change that!

@8:16
And Nazis called the French Resistance "terrorists" too. Because one man's freedom fighter is another's terrorist.

This blog seems to be full of crypto fascists who are scared of losing their power. Well the racist south lost the civil war and the fight against civil rights.

Accept it and get over it, bigot.

9:16 A protester does not sneak around in the darkness and deface or destroy the property of other people no matter what political slogan or obscenity they may spray paint. To do that is an act of VANDALISM...Not protest. Come out of the darkness and stand up straight for what you believe, that is protest. Before you call people you don't know bigots, look in the mirror, it may help you define a bigot. You seem to have trouble with definitions.

KF, as I have posted in the past, if separate but equal was done correctly, we wouldn't be in this mess today. Other than obvious shared public spaces, we would all be left to our own devices, and there would be a ton more respect.

Hey @9:16 You're not equating punk kids with a spray paint can with French Resistance are you? What a joke.

Elvis owned slaves?

If you have not been to Graceland lately,please go. It is very entertaining, but be careful as this part of South Memphis is very dangerous! Need I say more.

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.

Trollfest '07

Jackson Jambalaya is the home of Trollfest '07. Catch this great event which promises to leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Sonjay Poontang and his band headline the night with a special steel cage, no time limit "loser must leave town" bout between Alan Lange and "Big Cat"Donna Ladd following afterwards. Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.
