Jackson Jambalaya

It’s simple shut this place down effective immediately as well as the one downtown. These places are nothing but breeding grounds for criminals with too much alcohol in there system

Culture

Or the lack of same.

6:25 You are right & the Mayor should close them.

Should be “the former last call sports grill”. Isn’t it just a burned out shell?

Went there 20 years ago, used to be a decent place. Then thug customers started patronizing the business and it went downhill.

Is there a proper avenue to lodge complaints with the new mayor's administration? These kinds of establishments are not what helps build a healthy community even though they may generate tax revenue. The TASTE restaurant that took over the old Elite downtown is now blasting music on the sidewalk weekend nights...

"Is there a proper avenue to lodge complaints with the new mayor's administration?"

1. These and other problem venues in Jackson are black owned and frequented by black 'clubbers'.

2. The new mayor of Jackson is black and counts on black support to stay in office.

3. The mayor (and spouse) along with Howard Ballou (and spouse) were photographically featured dining out together a couple of days ago in the Belhaven District week. Perhaps Howard can work up some TV coverage on this problem and, with the mayor's assistance, perhaps the problem will go away.

Yea Jackson should replace it with a strip club

I’m extremely disappointed in the new mayor as he’s done very little to rid of these issues. Taste is a major problem and the music outside at night is non stop and has been brought up many times and still nothing is done. Mayor get on this!

I see the new location is working out well

Does nothing good ever come out of Jackson? The new mayor is just a rebrand of Chockway Lobamba!

@9:00

I think they reopened in the old Copeland’s location near County Line.

Jackson will be Jackson

@9:28 could say the same about The Bulldog on Ridgewood. Claim it closed due to Covid etc., but I saw it coming for same reasons you mention.

Prior to last year's election, I was shocked by the number of people who actually believed Horhn would be able (willing?) to make changes to Jackson. My belief was the only thing he would do would be to simply to slow the decline from Baby Chok's full-on race to the bottom. So far, I've been right. Hope he eventually proves me wrong......

Don’t forget to close down the M Bar while you’re at it!

You Horhn naysayers: GIVE THE MAN A MINUTE!
He is no Lumumba and nothing like him! He is having to undo the damage left in Chock's wake and doing all the things left undone.

I miss Gridley's

OK 4:03, the man's been in office for 9 months now (nearly 20% of his term), so if you would, please ask him to do at least ONE thing that's difference from baby chok so we'll know he's different. All I've seen so far is talk.....and even what he's said hasn't been particularly compelling.

4:03 you right, it takes time to change the color on those sissy looking JPD Police Cars. Need a look that say you mean business when needed. Get rid of those hospice looking cars.

You should carefully re-read his WLBT interview.
