So passive aggressive
This post by a closeted gay nut case is posted to feign some type of help……
It’s a dig at jackson…..where the closet case lives himself
Once the self hatred boils over….where do you go….Philippines?
More solid evidence that Jackistan is a third world city.
Why don't y'all organize and have weekly peaceful marches on city hall until affirmative changes/improvements are made?
How can Jackson residents become so passive and impotent and let these issues continue for years and y'all do nothing but bitch on social media?
GROW A PAIR!!!!
This will be a great lesson in financial literacy.
Folks will burn $3 in gas to get to a location passing out a $3.99 case of water.
I call it the "gas price mentality". Drive 2 miles up the road to a gas station selling gas for $0.05 less. At 20 gallons, that's a WHOLE DOLLAR! Except that you just put $2.00 of wear and tear on your vehicle.
It would be far better for them, and our carbon footprint, if they just remembered to pick up an extra case of water at Kroger when they did their grocery shopping.
Glad I don’t have to wait in that line.
Government incompetence is the key to this comment, better start buying up rice and beans folks. These losers are about to take us all to hell.Jackson Mississippi is shining example of just how bad things are. The energy grid is bad the leader ship is bad and all of their ideas are bad. The gulf coast waters are 91° and the well placed category five tips us over the edge.
Who, what, when, where, why.
The why is missing, i wonder why that might be?
@3:21 You seem a like a really pleasant person. How long did you write for the JFP?
A million dollars for Bobby Rush.
No free butter & cheese like the old days ?
Part of me wants to leave a snarky comment about how Lumumba just needs to get the water problem in Jackson fixed.
Then again, I work in Jackson and I have carried my own drinking water to work every day for several years. If I lived in Jackson I would not be drinking the water.
Groundhog Day...
Wonder who is paying for the bottled water? Generally speaking, it is illegal for Mississippi governmental entities to give anything away.
I’m just glad they are spending $1M on renaming a desolate street instead of wasting in on things like fixing problems at the water plant or pipes
You folk in Jackson better make sure your toilets are topped off when you go to bed. Might need to make coffee in the morning when you wake up.
