The landlords are getting paid by the government to rent homes to people in neighborhoods they couldn't previously afford to rent in. With those low income renters came an entire ecosystem of criminal parasites.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-86644424147807765582020-07-15T07:26:31.997-05:002020-07-15T07:26:31.997-05:003:29, kudos for the most ridiculous statement ever...3:29, kudos for the most ridiculous statement ever posted on JJ.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-50096833860823200922020-07-14T23:21:22.534-05:002020-07-14T23:21:22.534-05:00sacre bleu!sacre bleu!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-49459925635136823112020-07-14T22:44:10.458-05:002020-07-14T22:44:10.458-05:00I also used to live in the Maria area.

When the single family HOUSES where the nice middle class used to live started turning into rental properties, that is when the downhill slide turned into a torrent. Perhaps if there had been zoning against rental houses things might have lasted longer.

Middle class fled.. that leaves high earners and a massive area of the city that is dirt poor. My neighbors have a jewelry store in m adison and a furniture interior store. Other neighbor is ortho doc in flowood. It's not based on race. Explain Chicago only 30% black and south side the black area is where loads of murders happen.

Families with money may have stayed in Jackson if they felt safe. No one wants to live in an area where there is crime. When people move in who don't work, don't pay taxes and have no desire to better themselves, then things go bad. Look at lots of cities where low income people have moved into once nice areas, of course, people who have the means to leave, will. I live in a neighborhood outside of Jackson and we have black and white people, but everyone tries to keep their properties in good shape and no one is out shooting in the streets.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-72708150505977614352020-07-14T17:38:50.773-05:002020-07-14T17:38:50.773-05:00Chockwe has been successful in spreading major cri...Chockwe has been successful in spreading major crime and murder to all areas on Jackson.

The city goes to hell. <br />Jackson would be a very good example of what happens to a city where everyone who can has left. Streets look like goat trails, sewage runs in the street, drinking water not available much of the time, crime becomes a way of life, police become part of the crime problem, and businesses move to other cities.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-82138009191473463832020-07-14T16:57:14.547-05:002020-07-14T16:57:14.547-05:00No justice no peace,I assume not everyone gets or....No justice no peace,I assume not everyone gets or.Turd Furgsonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-53783096671831039492020-07-14T16:44:18.450-05:002020-07-14T16:44:18.450-05:00@3:39.
