Why I Sleep at the P.O.

 A residentially-challenged individual apparently went beserk at the Lefleur post office last night.

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

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

It’s a Radical City, right?

This is so disappointing.

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

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.

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

Haters will Hate said...

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.

--------------------
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?

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.

Anonymous said...

@2:54. Which agency do you represent?

Don Drane said...

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.

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.

Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? 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.

If you get tired come relax at the Fox News Tent. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag.
