No Comment!

 This little incident occurred during the emergency meeting of the Jackson City Council Friday.  The Mayor passed out copies of his veto to the City Council.  Ward 6 Councilman Aaron Banks was being rather belligerent during the meeting and continued to be belligerent as the Mayor distributed his veto as shown in the video below.

He did apologize during Tuesday's meeting.

I’m sure Banks was resisting the urge to bitch slap the mayor, who so desperately needs it.

Today is DAY 6 of my trash sitting by the road, uncollected!! THANKS LUMUMBA!

The Mayor's behavior is quite acceptable...for a three-year old.

Classy Mayor. Real professional.

You just solidified why everyone thinks what they do of you.

The mayor is a petulant child. My 6 year old son has more maturity.

Unprofessional dress and unprofessional behavior in slapping that paper away like a petulant child.

Passing out his veto like he's schooling them.

If you watch the video posted Friday, Banks was acting up as well.

Yall seem to forget how some of these trash collection bidders treated Banks. They threatened to whoop his as in City Hall. He's pissed and I don't blame him. He needs to be the bigger person though and remember that he's representing the people of his Ward, not himself. Those folks don't care about his feelings. They just want their garbage picked up.

He should have graded it before he gave it back.

Lumumba is dressed to exercise his powers as a war-time chief executive.

Perhaps 4 righteous Council members, after Dickinson clarifies his judgment tomorrow (Friday) against the fake emergency contract, will mark 4 red crayon Xs on boy mayor's windshield, the type of message that should appeal to his juvenile deficiencies.

Banks is my councilman. I thank him for standing up to this mayor. We know who's taking bribes, and it ain't the council members who refused to go along with the mayor's bullshit!

The mayor clearly doesn’t understand the first thing about leadership. How does he expect to accomplish anything going forward? Such petulant child behavior

Isn't it about time that the petulant child mayor gets grounded, right?

Has Baby posted cops outside his and Virgi's home to keep people from dropping off their garbage there in protest? If not, then that is the best way for Jacksonians to get rid of their garbage.

Lost in the dialogue from this meeting was Councilman Banks' best comment. Yes, his calling (accurately) the City Attorney "incompetent" was good, despite Virgie's attempting to call him down for speaking the truth. But earlier, when responding across the dais to the comments he referred to "Mayor Hondo, or whoever".

Hang in there Councilman Banks. Your stock with me is increasing along with the public adoration of Councilman "raw boo boo" Stokes.

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.
