Jackson Jambalaya

That, is what is known as letting it all hang out.

Probably looking for somewhere in Jackson with running water so he can shower.

OK, a naked man. Big deal (or little deal - can't tell).

What the hell is psychological nudity. Is that a situation that causes a bedwetter to be so offended by the sight of pubic hair that his brain-wiring misfires and he has to seek psychological counseling?

Please don’t post these things. The subjects of the videos obviously have problems, whether mental health, drugs, or both. It is pitiful that this happens, and not something that deserves to be laughed at or consumed as entertainment. That it happens says little about the state of affairs of the city, if we assume it likely occurs all over the country. The newsworthy value is low; there is little we can or will do differently after watching this unless someone intends to offer mental health services to those in need.

Please continue posting the videos. Many people deny help to the mentally ill and deny that the condition is a problem. St Dom even closed 60 beds earlier this year.

3:51. You are right, BUT when is the past time you saw this behavior in Madison? Flowood? Clinton? I am waiting.....

at 3:51 PM - This blog is clearly labeled as a website of news, commentary, culture, & jackassery in the Jackson, Mississippi area.

But seriously, yes this person needs help. If people take notice they can be motivated to help. If they are unaware then they go on as if nothing is wrong.

3:13, look up Michael Savage, PhD.

3:51, I’m not responsible for anyone’s mental issues. I’m an employer and I’ve dealt with this bullshit for far too damn long and I’m sick of it. I don’t owe anyone anything. That’s fine with me if you want to feel guilty but everyone who I’ve had contact with and have given a chance for gainful employment who resorted to drug use that ended up causing brain damaging consequences is not my problem nor is it the public’s problem. Go sit in a corner and pout. As an employer you can’t find a damn worthy clean person or anyone for that matter who wants to work anymore so as far as I’m concerned that guy can go stand on the railroad tracks or on I-55 where the thugs drive their challengers and other dodge autos at 100+ mph. Thank you.

Is that a dangling participle?

This is a long shot, but possibly there have been drugs involved. I know this would be unusual in this part of the capitol city.

@7:23 - Savages crafting of cute phrases is equally as important as Limbaugh's ability to do the same.

Is Savage still on A.M. radio somewhere?

7:27, how about paying more? I can assure you, as an employer myself, that there are in fact sane people who don’t come to work high. They don’t do it for $7.25 an hour, though.

St.D's closed 60 beds? Psyche beds? On 'Sylum Hill? The area once had an enormous beautiful (3 storey?) brick Asylum building with continuous porches around it for each floor, tall ceilings, huge windows. Patients could sit on the covered balcony porches.

Now note how putrid ugly UMMC exterior is, makes me f'g crazy insane to see nasty gray siding intentionally clashing next to yellow-tan brick! I think I'll get naked and protest the vulgarity!

Even if asylums still existed, $900+ a day to "house" these folks is cost prohibitive...like most things in the MS State Legislature that actually are meant to help people, but only enrich the already well off.

The other day there was a very tanned white guy in the Meadowbrook Piggly Wiggly parking lot who kept pulling his pants and underwear down. I did my best to get away without attracting his attention.

8:09, I pay $25/ hour and up but the damn blue collar sector wants to toke, shoot and snort shit. Where you came up with that $7.25 an hour bullshit is beyond me. Even paying for hotels and $500 per week per diem can’t get “clean” people anymore. Don’t assume many of us don’t pay good scales. That’s on you. Many of us business owners take a hit when we hire a lot of these people who “want to work”. The problem is you can’t find decent people to work.

Those crazy checks keep on coming when you run around naked every now and then to keep up appearances.

@7:28am lol You just might be right.
