Jackson Jambalaya

perception of shootings. antar says jackson is safe

Interpersonal... no worries

I am curious to see at what point insurers start refusing coverage for business entities in this area.

We don’t have this problem in Flowood

Folks who purchased or leased at the King Ed, got any buyers remorse yet?

Odd video. Why are all those girls hanging around a shooting scene?

@9:54
Pretty ladies love daiquiris. This place attracts pretty ladies. Guys looking for pretty ladies show up too. Now, only the top percent of guys can get the attention of these pretty ladies. The bottom feeders get pissed off and bring their guns which make them feel like big men instead of ugly manlets. Most women aren’t impressed by those impish trolls with guns. The imps want to scare off the tall handsome fellows who attract the pretty females, so violence ensues.

Happening as WJTV was doing their King Chokwe soft ball interview. LOCAL MEDIA LOCAL MEDIA LOCAL MEDIA is the true culprit for all of this at this point. Go check out the Sunday show interview ! I told y'all months ago all three of our local outlets think this guy is the second coming of Jesus.

Dodge City-

Does this mean another week of pressers from Cowboy Andy?

9:47 there are several insurers that will not write in Jackson, or their rates are so high you won't write it with them. Redlining is illegal, but they can price it so high they won't write anything in Jackson, or they make it worth their while. Rates on Jackson properties are sky high, on top of Mississippi's already high property rates due to weather. Jackson property owners are getting huge rate increases on their annual renewals.

10:19 : Nope. Wasn't on the fairgrounds. Instead King Chokwe will rap about how it's someone fault other than his administrations and most certainly not the garbage trucks fault cause they can'y possibly stink.

10:12,

Nope. It's Tombstone, Arizona. Where are the Earps when we need them?

Everyone calm down. Word on the street is the mayor is going to veto the shooting.

We had a window shot out at our church which is at the corner of Raymond and Ellis. The window company Metro Perkins Glass told us business is up because of stuff like this. He said they replaced a window at a dollar general the next day it was blown out again. Not only is crime up but places like these who are in the crossfire have to come out of pocket to replace the windows. Another reason to leave downtown. If you have any glass needs for your business call Metro Perkins Glass solid people.

I’ve yet to hear of any casualties. How do you fire 100 shots and nobody gets hit?

@9:47

Why do we think this bar even has insurance? If state law now protects the property owner, why would he care if the club folks to whom he leases even has liability insurance?

The mayor was in Ridgeland Saturday night at Renaissance for the $150 ticket Sante South Wine Festival. Hobnobbing with a certain WJTV anchor as well while he was there. No wonder the softball questions from the media . . .

100 shots fired & no injuries - for once, the lack of a nightlife downtown & only a handful of residents there are an upside - fewer targets for random shootings.

@11:02 AM - Nobody has mentioned "liability insurance." We are talking property damage insurance, right?

@11:28 AM - Do tell (anchor).

Bullets ain’t cheap. Seriously, 100 missed shots?

@11:08
Simple answer is that these weapons are basically smoothbore jam-o-matics and you rarely even see any sort of sights installed on them. They are smoothbore from all the fouling and also caused by lots of mag dumping with cheap steel ammo. They were probably smoothbore before they even procured them out of Cletus and Jimbob’s unlocked pickups in Niknar.

Softballs? Brown was tossing him grapefruits.

Someone at the scene said the casings were made of steel, thus indicating ammo was probably Russian. If so, indicates Dracos were used.

I've been told the AR_ & AK47 pistols shoot differently than rifles and regular pistols. Easy to believe because if you watch that shootout between Officer Terrio and Chauncey Reed, Reed misses Terrios at pretty close range. The thugs probably aren't practicing with their little toys, not that I'm complaining. Feel free to correct me, gun nuts.

You can thank Ted Orkin for this.

You can get 5.56/.223 steel cased ammo as well and 7.62. AR platforms as well as Ak platforms will shoot either. Typically it is cheap and garbage but for street sweeping it will get the job done. I bet it's wolf ammo.

is this how a "holistic" approach works?

does not seem very "safe"

Rukia, why isn't there a credible messenger clubhouse open 24/7/365 downtown? You could serve coffee and teach the 12 step thug program.

2022 just get weirder. Kenneth Stokes is starting to make sense.

Anybody know where I can get a "STOKES" hat?

How boutcha' Brad franklin? What do you say to this? Are you happy yet? You and your ilk have it now. See why we are so "happy" to welcome trash like this? Bunch of whiney, "oppressed" losers.

wlbt reports 7 more interpersonal unlivings this weekend due to the Mayoral commanded overall safeness of Jackson.

With the 7, do we have a 2022 ongoing tally?

Hope insurance pays for those windows!
You're looking at $35,000.00 window replacement cost!

Wow! Are there anyone staying in the Capital
Art Lofts?

Here's the solution....ready? Here it comes.....

Make bullets 1,000/ea. Yes, rich people don't go around firing off mags just to be the man. All shootings would cease and civilized society can return.

Most people simply don't use the sights on guns. Firing one handed out of a car window or from the hip only hits an intended target at bad breath distance or in a movie. Even the cheapest AK pistols can usually hit a 4 inch circle at 100 yards with every shot if locked in a vise with the human removed from the equation. Shorter barrels only decrease velocity and mechanically have no impact on accuracy. From a practical standpoint they are harder to shoot accurately, but mechanically they are no less accurate than a full size rifle.

All of the comments by gun experts aside, statistically I don't see how 100 shots, even if random and from cheap Russian guns, don't hit somebody.

3:00 PM
IF you make bullets $1000.00 each.
Everyone would reload their own & sell extras.

Why not just make ammo illegal to manufacture and possess period? It worked so well with meth, heroin, and marijuana, right?

Don't be ridiculous, @4:55. Make it illegal to shoot people. Problem solved.

"You're looking at $35,000.00 window replacement cost!

Wow! Are there anyone staying in the Capital
Art Lofts?"

Why bother, since it is likely to happen again? Just put up plywood, which has the added advantage of being able to be painted with slogans such as "Welcome to Lumumbaville" and other cheerful homespun sentiments.......

9:30. The Capital Art Lofts are low income housing. Really.....

Baby chok will blame White Flight and Media oversensaltionalizing crime. Wehn we all know someone who had a truck stolen the past year. Its just sad
