Oh, the irony of it all.
Yet another deadly shooting took place at a trail ride on Forest Avenue last weekend in Jackson. It joined a string of shootings - sometimes deadly - at the Hideaway, Capitol Grill, and Last Call - that took place this year.
The jokes flew as the flyers went out for the trail raid.
One must wonder what exactly constituted "security" Friday night. However, there is no shame in the promoter's game. Check out his next project.
So, the promoter sets up a killing field and then holds a "Stop the Violence" rally. One must wonder if he will be selling balloons at the "rally." Total chutzpah.

Where is Capital St.? Downtown Jackson?
If your purpose is to call out City of Jackson leaders and business owners, why meet at the Governor's Mansion instead of City Hall?
Free Food and Liquor….while it lasts….what could possibly go wrong. You know what? Nope….never mind. This has to work itself out. There is no cure for it. It’s like a bad cold. It’s got to just work itself out and eventually, maybe, it will. But you know how the old saying goes, “what doesn’t kill ya’ makes ya’ stronger” or something like that.
The ultimate irony will be when someone’s shot at the peace rally. My money’s on it happening.
It was a mostly peaceful trail ride…
Why isn't he protesting at Jackson City Hall?
WTF are any leaders supposed to do about total stupidity and an absolute lack of impulse control? Lobotomize everyone?
The vast majority of participants survived, most didn't even need medical treatment!
Trail "raid" ??
"Free liquor" - What could possibly go wrong?
No such thing as GUN VIOLENCE !
It's not on any of the maps I searched, at least not in Jackson, MS.
No one has any idea who the perpetrators are even though there are five survivors and many other folks were around at the time of the shooting.
"Governor Mansion"
There's a Jackson ordinance concerning special events. It's so poorly written I can't tell if it applies but if it doesn't, something needs to be done because these promoters are getting tons of cash and they don't care who dies in the process.
What about those lying commercials. Need to get rid of them.
The second flyer seems to want to position itself as some sort of tie to civil rights. Let’s be clear, this is black on black violence. So, who should be called out?
I wonder what the Dr Chief has planned to stop all this violence? More cameras? Speeches in local churches?
Illegal promoters need to be prosecuted.
a march, a speech and a balloon release can cure any problem.
Keep doing what they have been doing. Nothing!
Shame on all those fleeing business owners that make these people shoot each other. Oh, sorry, I forgot. The guns loaded themselves, then crawled into those folks’ hands, aimed themselves and then pulled their own trigger.
Kingfish, couldn't the city council pass an ordinance regulating these things to the extreme, or is there already something on the books, and it is being ignored now? For real, ALL lives matter.
At what point does charging at the gate and giving away "free food and liquor" trigger a need for ABC licensing and health department inspection and licensing?
"If your purpose is to call out City of Jackson leaders and business owners, why meet at the Governor's Mansion instead of City Hall?"
The simple answer is Governor has more street cred than John 'DUI" Horhn or the PHD police chief.
Yes that is sarcasm.
It's just a perception of a real-time trail ride.
"Calling out Jackson City Leaders and Business Owners", because they are the reason for all of the shootings. Always displacing responsibility...
The irony is they are showing up at the Governor's mansion instead of city hall calling out "Jackson City Leaders". The only thing the state level governor has anything to do with is Capital Police, to which they all oppose.
Sounds shady. Make you wonder if it was ummmmm created. All it takes is a insta diss to get these worthless punks triggered.
The Governors Mansion rather than City Hall. Your ignorance is part of the problem.
"Calling out Jackson business leaders"? For what, being robbed so many times by the same people in the march that they folded up shop and fled the city? That is a pure example of victim-blaming by those with zero accountability.
What Sister R doing?
