Some local talent apparently wishes to compete for the Jackson Darwin of the Year Award.
Posted below is a picture of at least dirt bikes and 4-wheelers hauling ass downtown last night around 9 PM. They came up Capitol Street, went down North State Street to Fortification Street, and turned west. At least 20 deathriders were seen popping wheelies, going around moving cars, and taking up the width of North State Street. Several of the 4-wheelers had no lights. Several 4-wheelers had two riders with nary a helmet in sight but hey, they were cool.
At least the deathriders had the sense to practice their stupidity near several hospitals, not that it will make a difference when something bad happens to them.

You don't see too many Worldstar videos or consume any other modern African American cultural media. This is a common event around the nation. From Atlanta to LA. They don't get out on the trail very often.
You better believe there is GoPro footage on Black Social Media.
That's quite a long trek to not have been noticed by any police. I guess they must have watched "The Wild Ones" recently and that's where they got their idea for something so stupid.
Helmet laws suck!!!!
Where do they think this is, Reunion?
Total disregard of the law, other than looks like some of them actually observed the red light and stopped.
We need a Main Force Patrol in Jack Town
Start seizing those 4-wheelers and they will get the picture.
No it’s common because Jackson doesn’t care. The same crap running the city are the very ones helping burn it down. Burn baby burn. Move while you can. Meanwhile in Madison you get jail time for doing wrong, not a blessing
I’ll bet a few of those were stolen from the original owners.
This is what Jackson needs. Popping a cap in each other isn’t culling the undesirables fast enough. Something like this can take out several at a time.
Good clean fun.
KF, those aren’t their 4-wheelers...
This was common when I lived in Madison. Only difference was that it was rich while kids who would send their dads to the front door of anyone who called the cops.
So what killed Precious Martin? Or a mechanic's little girl in Brandon?
KF, I think he is insinuating those gentlemen and ladies aren't the rightful owners of those four wheelers
9:38; That's bullshit. I've lived in Madison over 20 years and have never seen illegal four wheelers riding the roads or a bike rider without a helmet - much less a whole damned gang of 'em. And neither have you. On the rare occasion there might be a four wheeler on the street, he knows he's about to get caught and ticketed and he's not thumbin' his nose. The guys in this photo know they own the PD. And THAT, my friends, IS THE BOTTOM LINE.
What killed them? Being unsafe and illegal on a four-wheeler killed them. Thought that was known.
Maybe they confused Jackson roads with country, dirt roads. An easy mistake to make with all the potholes & lack of upkeep.
Law enforcement seems to turn a blind eye to crotch rockets and ATVs that can out run them and that's obvious from coast to coast. Crotch rockets pass on lane lines between cars on I-5 from the Canadian Border to Mexico. And here in north Mississippi they stand up on the rear wheel and drive 60+mph on city streets whenever the urge strikes.
I wish the Darwin Awards were aired on Cinemax.
Had this problem in canton for a while. Haven't seen it though in several months. I think canton PD put he end to it after several of them did donuts and tore up fairway and a few green at the canton CC. It was about 15 or 20 always in a pack.
Official trailer for Mad Max Comes to Jacktown?
Within another 10 years of unchecked illegal immigration, you are all going to feel nostalgic for the days of these types of benign shenanigans.
Your current city occupants don't murder their enemies in horrific ways that resemble Aztec human sacrifice. The new invaders on the otherhand...
Let's just say there is a reason they don't broadcast cartel murders on cable news.
@7:39 AM - That is called "lane splitting," and it's legal in California.
The groups may not organize to this size, but this is a thing in Madison (the county).
It’s a big difference outside of city limits where you’d probably be more offended by a John Deere tractor doing 7 mph.
If you think that’s bad come over to the main circuit on Sunday’s from 6pm-11pm that runs from North West St down to Woodrow Wilson to Bailey Ave up to Northside Dr and back to North West St. If you want to see cars doing donuts and burnouts then Northside Dr is your best bet. This is EVERY Sunday.
The reason they can do this is because we do not have law enforcement in the City of Jackson. If you have an issue, better call the Sheriff. JPD is usually about 35-45 minutes and then won't do anything when they arrive, if they arrive. The voice of a twenty year Belhaven resident. Thy why me and mine are moving out. Tired of being my own cop and navigating third world streets.
Unfortunately, I lived for a few years in Baltimore. Exactly the same thing had taken hold there on Sunday evenings on main downtown streets. They would also use the sidewalks so streets would be entirely blocked with passenger cars were trapped. So lots of folks just stopped going downtown on weekends. Gave up.
Guess it's a culture thing.
On Sundays I’ve seen groups of crotch rocketeers performing their death wish antics on I 20 eastbound to I55 N to Woodrow Wilson speeding by @80+mph. As they wove in & out of lanes at excessive speeds, the wussies of the group were trailing way behind, traveling at the speed limits.
