Why We Can't Have Nice Things

Some people enjoy Independence Day with barbecues and fireworks.  Others like to well, wreck ____ as seen in the pictures below. 






Steve's Deli, Shiro's, and Keifer's restaurants in Downtown Jackson.   Nice job, thugs.  You almost hit for the cycle.

If you live or work downtown- Get out NOW while you can!

Some people live like a cow that is confined it a pasture all its living days - if they can't eat it, drink it, or have sex with it - they take a dump on it.

Hey, be thankful. They usually shoot at people.

" Get out NOW while you can!"


Good lord 5:37, they've had almost thirty years to get out. But they choose to stay.

Thus no sympathy from me.

The headline makes me think of a really good song. Go to YouTube and check out Nice Things by Hayes Carll. You’re welcome.

Makes a guy wonder if this criminal activity wasn't a response to Virgi's recently proposed "moratorium" on downtown businesses, that would squarely fall under the "by any means necessary" part of the Free the Land movement?

Exactly. I wonder if these were targeted as white owned. I know two of them are. Don't wish to race bait but it is what it is. Sunday nights in Jacktown need extra security. That's when all of my break in's have occurred. I'm tempted to lay and wait. But then the likes of Tommie Green?

Il n'est pas toujours facile de comprendre pourquoi certaines personnes aiment détruire des choses, mais il se peut qu'elles soient en colère ou frustrées par autre chose dans leur vie. Il est également possible qu'ils aient des problèmes de santé mentale ou un problème de toxicomanie.

I am as concerned with the rapid decline of Jackson as anyone. You guys do understand the entire nation is going to shit, don't you? Trust me, It isn't just Jackso/Hinds/Madison/Rankin/Yazoo/Warren. It is the entire Danm nation.

Anonymous said...

This nation has had over 1000 mass shootings and over 1000 police brutality events against unarmed African-Americans. A few broken windows at boojie white owned restaurants is a nothingburger!

Theca Jones of the Roguish Gent Podcast said...

Looking at these comments always remind me just how clueless y'all are. lol

"Maybe they did this in response to Virgi's proposed moratorium?!"

Do you know how many people in Jackson don't watch the news?
Do you know how many people here don't even know who she is?

Most of y'all are idiots.

What we have is a frightening reality of sixty years of dysfunctional adults raising even more dysfunctional children.

Couple that problem of little, to no, familial instruction with the mental defect of arrested development, and we have planted a crop, so to speak.

A crop that has the appearance of being bountiful. A crop that has the taste of bitterness, which will require most if not all to take part of the reaping. Make no mistake, we are seeing the reaping.

It's not always easy to understand why some people like to destroy things, but they may be angry or frustrated with something else in their lives. It is also possible that they have mental health issues or a substance abuse problem.

CULTURE
You don't see this kind of depravity in the Amish culture.

@7:32am - Yep, thanks boomers.

The Christmas movie It’s a Wonderful Life illustrates what happens when men are removed who try to do the right thing. George Bailey is an average man in a small town, but he’s a hero of epic proportions. Why? Simply because he always tries to do the right thing. He looks out for his fellow man, acts selflessly when necessary, and basically loves his neighbor as himself.
The real beauty of the film is that we get to see what life is like with George Bailey and without him.
With George, the people in the small town are happier, healthier, and more prosperous. Without him, corruption is rampant, the poor are oppressed, and sin abounds. It’s no contest - Bedford Fall is a much better place to live with George Bailey goodness in it. Do you see any comparison with Jackson & Bedford Falls? Makes you really think, doesn’t it?

Good to hear from the 'Crime is everywhere enjoy the ride' crowd.

PS: I'm a boomer and that's damned sure not my take. This shit does NOT happen everywhere. It happens where you have democrat leadership and democrat, unrestrained, un-home-trained vermin roaming and ridin', knowing there are no consequences.

9:07 am, This boomer knows we'll go down in history as the worst generation.
Please know some of us tried and always knew money wasn't everything and you didn't win if you cheated.
But, Lordy, those making celebrities out of the Kardasians and Depps and gang rappers ought not be throwing stones.

Yeah, we're all idiots except the Professor who is +200 pounds overweight and is convinced he's intelligent.

If you think the problems we are experiencing belong to only one generation, you are ignorant.

If you think the problem is defined by race, economic, religious, or social status, you are ignorant.

For lack of better words, a spirit of lawlessness has engulfed the world. Can't you see?

Anonymous said...

@8:00am. One of the restaurants is black owned. But since they are a civilized member of society and a business owner, they are fair game for these thugs.

I am sure it’s any number of those angry homeless guys that frequent that area

If you think its bad now, thank Fitch for making it worse by forcing poor women to have an unplanned pregnancy. Wonder what kind of functional citizens these women, their partners and offspring become?

Anonymous said...

"we're all idiots except the Professor" what professor are you talking about?

Perhaps it is time to mandate by city ordnance that all Jackson business install bullet proof glass.

These places are one and two blocks from the Police Station

Steve’s is a block from the Police Station

Anonymous said...

1:02....no one 'forced these poor women to have an unplanned pregnancy"....unless they were raped. Almost all pregnancies come from consenting participants who could prevent the pregnancy with a little common sense restraint. Let's get the blame where the problem originates and with the participants!!!!!!

Theca Jones, you took the words right outta my mouth. Like the juvenile criminal element in Jackson gives a rat’s ass about Virgi or any other figure of authority …. and that’d be if they had a clue.

The Amish culture? That’s about as micro as it gets.

Anonymous said...

I thought the Amish culture reference was hysterical. Then came It’s A Wonderful Life released in 1946.

I’ve never seen this much reminiscing on JJ.

One can be sick of the criminal element in Jackson, the senseless violence, and the apologist mayor and still not want to live in a red enclave where all the women are 40, white, and blonde.

"Juvenile criminal element" or the Mairs "Dope Boys" or maybe, just maybe, our perp or perps are "Credible Messengers" getting their message across?

@ 8:00. It's liberal attitudes like yours that have us in the position we're in today. It's called "the broken window" effect.

Anonymous said...

That's a great take on A Wonderful Life 9:43. A great movie. We need more George Bailey's.

"We need more George Bailey's."

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.

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.
