Jackson - the city that succumbed.

More perception of violent crime. Right?

Close the Zoo said...

The zoo is almost across the street. Such a nice area to take the kids to see the animals.

A note now that the map and data is completely hidden from the "Jackson Crime" section. If I was a paranoid man I'd think they're running cover for Horhn.

Direct link still works: https://www.wlbt.com/news/crime/jackson-homicides/

This is truly a shame. Sad. Everyone should be shocked by this murder. But, with the frequency of how often it happens, eveyone is numb and nobody in the black community cares.

Sure, he might get a vigil, a balloon release, a short, meaningless march. But no change will happen. Where is Al? Where is Ben? Where is the mom and dad?

This culture HAS to change.

Criminals doing what criminals do.Too many excuses by JPD, JCP, defense attorneys, judges. Jackson needs expanded law enforcement. Man up & go after the criminals.

There is little nexus between the crime and punishment. Hire Judge Roy Bean and erect a nearby gallows, with a guillotine as a backup.

Yeah, the direct link is still there but it is obvious that Horhn and RaShall have gotten to the higher ups @ WLBT. Not that RaShall's gotten caught scamming the emergency procurement process, things are likely to get hotter.

There are lots of funerals in Jackson. On Saturday you might see as many as 5
To 7 funeral line of cars heading to the grave site. I assume the number of elderly in Jackson and gunshot victims.

We just returned from a weekend in New Orleans where the National Guard is still deployed until mid August I was told. On Bourbon Street you see the simmering tension as locals are waiting to reclaim their “chocolate city” Mr. Nagin prayed for.
What we have in Jackson is pure, unadulterated gang wars between young black men with cheap, duct-taped weapons willing to kill any perceived threat to their purse or turf.
If Governor Reeves could or would deploy our National Guard for at least two months in Jackson they could, with Capitol Police help, flush some of these rodents out and disarm them.

Is it just me or do any of you also think about the ONE THING that has brought Jackson to its knees and yet the same ONE THING that has to change for it to get better? Every. Other. Issue. is secondary, that is, IF the population wants Jackson to become livable/workable again. There is no other way, so FOCUS on the ONE THING!

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.
