Dad Gum It - Jackson is getting beyond crazy!!!!
Next and next
Obligatory: NEXT
Sigh. Another day, another murder in Jackson.
369 E. Fortification St is right by Baptist Hospital (SW corner, shitty gas station).
This is just south of where the lady that was killed sitting in her car.
West of I-55 is a war zone. It’s not longer just the west side of the tracks.
That’s number #95 & 96
#94 was at 5 pm
Do you think it’ll break the century mark by September 1?
Where were the state troopers that Tate sent to fight crime in Jackson?!
Post a pic of the female. She must be a doozy.

Is that the shitty gas station right by Kiefers?
These numbers could change between now and the 31st...but assume 96 homicides through 8 months is average 12 per month. 4 more months left in the year...96 + 48 would give us 144 total for the year again, assuming zero homicides in the next 7 days. That would be a 20% increase over the record from 2020.
State St is the DMZ
I ain't never coming back
Projection @ rate = 149 YE
Kuddos for The Cult reference, 11:08
St. Louis Mo. is the only city in the USA with a higher per capita murder rate than Jackson.Chicago is not even close.
Homicides per 100,000 (run rates)

Memphis,TN 29
Chicago,IL 18

Guns, bullets and people are everywhere, not only in Jackson.
@11:06am - SW = Southwest. No, it’s not.
No, 11:06. That gas station is at State and Poplar. This one is on fortification further down into the hood, past the intersection of Fortification and West, before the fire station. Nowhere anyone I know would have gone my entire adult life, and certainly not behind the carwash at night. Not saying this is acceptable, but it has been the state of affairs for that location for quite some time. My advice would be try not to find yourself in an altercation with armed individuals behind a seedy car wash at night. You will probably not suffer the same fate as those brothers.
11"06, no Keifers is on Poplar. This incident occurred on E Fortification Street, so this gas station would be the one on ----- wait for it ----- East Fortification Street.
9:48
Correction.
The war zone is not just west of I-55.
It’s ALL of Jackson including northeast Jackson.
Sad.
That car wash is a known den of drug dealing
So where is the story about the other murder in Jackson on Sunday. The killer was wearing a clown mask and shot and killed. That's appropriate for the Clown Mayor.

Oh THAT scummy gas station right across from the used tire store. Glad I don't have to drive to downtown from Clinton anymore.
I cannot believe the callous, cruel, inhumane comments that persist on this blog whenever there is a murder in Jackson: "Next and Next" "NEXT" "break the century mark" "she must be a doozy" "Sigh. Another day...."
YOU PEOPLE ARE SICK, MENTALLY DERANGED, SHAMEFUL, and YOU NEED COUNSELING!
Folks are literally being murdered in our streets, and it's just a game to you as all you do is count, vilely hoping for a record year. Each murder victim is a person, someone's son or daughter, or a sister or brother, or parent, or friend. In most cases they've been dealt a difficult hand to play in life from birth. They grew up and live in what you'd call "the wrong side of town". Some may not be the best examples of upstanding citizens or what you view as productive members of society. But no one deserves to die by gunshot to the head as a result of a domestic dispute. The Lord loves each one of them just as much as he loves you, faults and all.
Have some mercy and empathy or SHUT UP! And may God have mercy on your wretched souls.
12:50 PM You want empathy?
Tater ToT should make masks mandatory for 13 & under.
Save a few kids from dying. COVID is as deadly as a bullets.
@12:50pm - You must be new here. Welcome to the Internet, leave your logic and feelings at the door.
@12:50, no one cares long as everyone is wearing their mask and vaccinated.
12:50 likely delights in posting "Madison is Lost" when any crime happens there though.
And I do agree with 12:50's sentiment, and I don't delight in any murder.
But mercy and empathy wont save Jackson.
Nobody wants to do the hard work of raising moral and decent kids though, with a work ethic...so sure, lets pray.
Only Jackson Mississippi can put a twist on the term "Delta Variant". Next.
How do you teach a different form of conflict resolution in this community?
These type of murders, year-in, year-out perpetuate, reverberate, and normalize murder as a conflict resolution strategy.
It is so sad.
@12:20PM
Over the years, I’ve visited the car wash hundreds of times and NEVER witnessed any drug dealing. Yet, you’ve NEVER stepped foot onto the property but claim it’s a den for drug dealing.
FOH.
This wouldn't have happened if only the statue of Andrew Jackson in front of City Hall had been removed by now.
Apparently one can "get your shot" just about anywhere in Jackson, no prior appointment necessary.
@3:37PM
Stale ass joke.
With violence being an everyday event in Jackson, we are numb to these murders reports. So sad to see the city that we loved for many years fall apart.
103 inside the city limits. The numbers are being fiddled with based on errrrr stuff.
