Jackson Jambalaya

The homeless are moving north. Their migration started around 2018.

Just another reminder how Dudley Do-Right Delbert totally caved on the CCID boundaries.

that door next to the window was open and im sure the person thought that was an atm.

It’s a Radical City, right?

This is so disappointing.

Fondren is lost.

Fondren is lost.

Thanks for disqualifying yourself from commenting any further.

Remember when it used to sound intimidating to read those signs that said vandalizing a PO is a federal offense subject to prosecution? I guess it’s no so intimidating any more. Uncle Joe would say this guy is the victim

@9:27

Not in Fondren. This post office is located directly south of Kroger at corner of Old Canton Road and Jacksonian Plaza in Northeast Jackson.

@9:26
Jacksonian Plaza is in Fondren now? Or did you just want to make a stupid comment?

Where do all these "homeless" come from? It wasn't always like this. Why are they here?

Moving north, you say.

Don't we all wish we lived right near our work-place? It's just a hop, skip and a jump to his job...at the corner of 55 and Lakeland.

We know from video evidence that when LEO from other jurisdictions encounters a mental health case, they just haul them to Jackson and drop the off behind a building.

I'm pretty sure Jackson has homeless people that originate from all over the state, especially Parchman.

It's not just the Jackson water or Hinds detention center that is under federal supervision, the state of Mississippi has been in hot water and under a judges thumb for lack of resources for those with mental health challenges. The state refuses to do anything.

Life is so interesting in a radical live-work-play community like Jacktown.

A tip of the hat to Kingfish for the headline that references one of my favorite Eufora Welty short stories.

Could be one of those folks that used to live under the bridge at Canton Mart and I55 frontage roads.

Northeast Jackson is lost.

"We know from video evidence that when LEO from other jurisdictions encounters a mental health case, they just haul them to Jackson and drop the off behind a building."

We see Madison, Jackson and Ridgeland also dropping off these folks in Canton. Guess they blend in better, or so they think.

Bum dumping allegations without proof/photos is BS. Haters will hate.

@9:27 The clerk at the post office said they had video of the homeless guy Smashing the kiosk with a pole.
So there is proof.

"Where do all these "homeless" come from? It wasn't always like this. Why are they here?"
--------------------
Stewpot wasn't always here either. Neither were vagrancy and panhandling always encouraged in Jackson. Now they are. Rampant lawlessness was not always tolerated here. Now it is. When we tolerate societal deviances, we encourage them, and they proliferate.

How many more dots do you need in order to begin connecting them?

I don't doubt that the homeless population contributes to the problems in Jackson and that other counties dump them there.

So now that I have conceded that point, what plan has the COJ leaders proposed to deal with this issue?

“I don't doubt that the homeless population contributes to the problems in Jackson and that other counties dump them there.

None at all. It’s your fault they are homeless after all.

FYI, The City of Meridian buys them a bus ticket to Jxn. Here's a good rumor for you to further investigate.

I've been busy at work, but I am on a late lunch break now.
I must have missed it.
How exactly is homelessness my fault 1:25?

(I assume you were being sarcastic, but this crazy world...you just never know.)

I'm sure the homeless would chime in on their own behalf but they are probably busy at work today, just like me.

"We see Madison, Jackson and Ridgeland also dropping off these folks in Canton. Guess they blend in better, or so they think."

Your two opening words, "We see", amounts to a lie. If 'you see' or 'we see' or if you or anybody else has 'seen', belly up and post your evidence.

Otherwise...but, I already told you that you're a liar.

@2:54. Which agency do you represent?

4:55 - I don't represent anyBODY or any agency. I'm simply challenging the poster to either (1) belly up to his 'we see' people being dropped off in Canton by Madison, Jackson and Ridgeland claim or (2) disappear into the weeds.

It’s Jackson, the homeless don’t want to be there either.

Those of us that live in Reunion don’t mind finding these people rides to Jackson, Canton, or Bolton. It is just a service we do not mind providing.
