Domino's Says No Night Service to North Jackson

Domino's will no longer deliver pizza to Northeast Jackson at night.  WLBT reported Wednesday night:



JJ would love to report the number of reported crimes at the apartment complex and could have done so with the old Comstat reports that Mayor Lumumba threw overboard nearly a year ago.  Unfortunately, the UCR reports he implemented do not report crimes by location or street as Comstat did.

Fake news

They won’t deliver pizza at night

Bad reporting

Madison Rulz said...

Ha ha ha! That’s what you Jackson idiots get for eating Dominos instead of Pizza Inn.

This is racism pure and simple. Black folks are being denied service.

As a former delivery driver in that area I can provide some insight. These people got what they deserve. The juice isn't worth the squeeze in that area. The customers don't tip and complain too much because they want free food. It's a cultural issue. The crime issue is just the politically correct excuse.

Nowhere does it say northeast Jackson. It says north. There is a difference.

They are a free enterprise and can choose to serve how they want. Being a business owner myself, I say they made the best decision for themselves and their employees. Along with my right to free speech I say, lumumba, you deserve everything you have coming to you and your families association with the New Republic Of Africa. And don’t forget that Bennie Thompson was /is associated with it.

As an aside, I can't believe WLBT is still employing Rosylyn Anderson.

5:50 - why don't you watch the report and pay attention. Then look at a map, if you know how to read one. Crossgates Apartments. On Ridgewood east of I-55. That's NE Jackson. Try to show a little initiative.

Anonymous said...

I wouldn't deliver to that apt complex either. It's only the apt complex. Not the entire area.

HUD gone hangry said...

This is more fake news. Basically the Ridgeland Dominos will not deliver to HUD apartments after dark. No where in the report does it say “northeast Jackson”.

Cynical Sam said...

But they will still deliver to Baby Chok's street in NE Jacktown.

Regardless, just like sushi, gas station pizza is much better.

There is no way I would deliver pizza in Jackson anywhere. It’s a jungle out there.

Robbed after Dark by darkies said...

@8:01 AM - listen again. He said the apartments AND OTHER PARTS OF NORTH JACKSON.

Anonymous said...

8.01 Great point. If the company had come up with a policy that they would not deliver in North Jackson except that apt complex then the entire area would have lost it.

I used to deliver for Dominoes in the 90s. Even back then we had areas we could not deliver to. We typically met the customer in the parking lot of a Dollar General. Think it may actually have been a TG&Y in those days.

Back then we had the 30 minute guarantee or its free deal going. Can't tell you how many times people would pull the mailbox out of the ground or cover the address with a garbage back to try to avoid paying for the pizza. The other trick was to leave you standing on the porch for 5 minutes knocking then they would claim you were late.

Bring back Pizza on Wheels...I delivered all over North \ North West \ North East Jackson ... absolutely the best pizza in town at the time.

Time for the state to take over Jackson and clean this crap up.

It's the Crossings on Ridgewood Rd. Pretty much all the apartment complexes on Ridgewood Road are bad. I think I've seen the calls for service for all of them. Same for the apartments on Northside Drive by Chastain.

Anonymous said...

I live in CCJ and I ordered dominos last night for my daughter's JA group at my house and they delivered 8 pizzas no problem. It's simply those apartments. The crossings?

Anonymous said...

The crossing have been bad for a long time I got robbed at gun point right outside my apt at 300 in the after noon in 2010

You're worried about pizza? There are a number of places that an ambulance won't enter until police arrive to escort them in...

Anon-E-Mouse said...

Years ago I was at the dominos store in Clinton (noetside drive). I overheard the manager crowing “we aren’t going to discriminate against anyone “ with regard to delivering to the apartments east of the store on Flag Chapel Road.

It was a year or two later one of their drivers was murdered in that area from that store.

Some areas don’t deserve delivery.

Anonymous said...

I'm sure it isn't the entire Apartment Complex endangering the delivery drivers. Just like corrupt and racist police, it is just a few bad apples.

Dominoes shouldn't discriminate against the entire apartment complex. Sounds like a case for the ACLU and NAACP just like Madison Coubty Sheriff.

Discrimination and white supremacy can not be tolerated going into 2020.

Anonymous said...

So one location in Ridgeland won't deliver? There are Domino's in Jackson... at least one right off Northside and another on High Street. Doesn't seem like anyone is at risk of too little access to bad chain pizza.

Anonymous said...

12:51 - Unlikely that you will find any white supremacists at that Domino's, but it would be great if you would video yourself going there and asking around just to be sure!

Bring my pizza, bitch!!

What about hoas? I was at an hoa in Brandon and got robbed out of $300000!!!!

OMG

Conservtards!

Anonymous said...

@2:32- That comparison is ludicrous. First of all, did you personally pay in $300,000? Then, you weren’t robbed of that amount. The collective homeowners association, yes, but not you individually. Second, do you even understand the differences in violent robberies and embezzlement? If you think they are equal in real time, please report to the Ridgeland Domino’s and apply to be their delivery driver to this area. Seriously, you sound ridiculous!

Not to mention the VERY folks upset about non-delivery of pizza to this area would be THE EXACT SAME folks threatening to SUE their employer for endangering their lives. It’s a never ending cycle of stupid behavior and stupid demands.

Hasn't been decent pizza around since Shakey's Pizza Parlor and Priatzos at Pizza Hut. Life now has forever more sucked since we lost those.

Shakey's? Holy shit, dude, that place closed in the 1970s! Are you seriously contending that no pizza has been able to pass your muster since the Carter administration? And it was an average chain selling average pizza at best.

Hell, there ain't been a decent steak since Bonanza closed on I-55! And no hamburger joint in the city holds a candle to Taylor Burger! And how sorry are all these convenience stores since Tote-Sum closed? I ain't gotten a decent new car since the days of Lane Moak Pontiac, and local radio has been awful since we lost "Fun 14" WJQS. And for Pete's sake they need to bring back Someplace Else arcade in the old Jackson Mall!

All these disenfranchised customers will just go to the Skybox for lemon pepper chicken wings instead.

Does Ray Ray still park his orange Escalade out in front of that place?

I live in CCJ (NOT JCC, Plebs!). Last week I had just finished a round of golf with my new set of PXG irons when my wife informed me that Britnee and her friends from JA were famished. Normally we only eat pizza flown in from Tuscany, but this was short notice and my S 450 was in the shop (wouldn't you know it?), so I called Dominos. They delivered to my CCJ home with no problem. I was so pleased that I peeled off a $50 bill from my ever present wad of cash as a tip.

Being a resident of CCJ, I know that my neighbors are all as wealthy as I and tip well, unlike those lower class rapscallions in...what was that place called again? The Van Mark Crossings? Forgive me, but I've lived in CCJ so long that I'm unfamiliar with apartment complexes and other such low-class dwellings.

Anyway, I don't understand all the trouble. I can get all the Dominos pizza I want delivered to my CCJ residence. The people living in that apartment complex...let them eat cake.

EIGHT pizzas? How many kids are in that group? Did 16 teenage girls eat half a pizza each?

Shakey's is still alive and well all over the USA. They are also still all over Asia as well! They just don't operate in hillbilly ghettos like the Jackson Metro.

@3:32 AM -Excellent, but I should point out that the best and most authentic pizza comes from Napoli (Naples for you hillbillies), not Tuscany. Pizza was invented in Napoli.

Kingfish said...

No good pizza now? Please. Bravo's is pretty damn good. If I'm wanting heavy duty, Pizza Shack fits the bill although I like to have the crust cooked longer. Don't like gooey dough.

Brick Oven had excellent pizza when it was open. Hint, hint, Grant.

I ordered 8 pizzas because I have 4 kids. 1 daughter and 3 teenage sons. Yes I ordered 8 pizzas.

According to their website, all but three Shakey's restaurants are in Southern California. Quite an interesting interpretation of "all over the USA". Apparently they don't operate in hillbilly ghettos like New York, Chicago, Minneapolis, Houston, Philadelphia, Atlanta, San Francisco, Cincinnati, Denver, or Kansas City either.

Regardless, the Jackson Shakey's I remember closed in the late 1970s and became a rib joint named Montana's. It served beer to underage kids, which made it extremely popular and extremely short lived. Last I saw it was the Fondren PO.

If that's the last good pizza you had in Jackson, you must be eating nothing but frozen Fox Deluxe pizzas from the grocery store. You need to get out more.

I ate it in L.A. and Manila in the within the last 5 years. All of America outside of L.A. is Hillbillies. Except when the Hillbillies came to Beverly Hills. Don't you watch TV?

My mom lives in Jackson so I come here to decompress. I'm too young to remember it in the 1970's because I was born in 1992. Sorry, You have me confused with another comment.

It's just a perception of non-delivery.

Let's recap: There is a business whose sole business is delivering pizzas to whomever wants one (or 8) in exchange for the price of the items delivered (plus a tip for the delivery person, hopefully). However, for some reason, it doesn't want to deliver to a certain area. Sure, "racism" could explain it, but since I've never heard the slightest hint that any such delivery service asks anything remotely akin to "What would you like on your pizza and what color is your skin?" I'm forced to conclude that racism doesn't explain the policy of only delivering to those areas in which the delivery people aren't likely to be robbed.

I can spot a liar from a good distance. 4:52 is 27 years old and is NOT visiting his mom in Jackson to decompress. He lives above her garage and decompresses by tokin' all day long while listening to Donovan's Mellow Yellow. Roach-covered pizza boxes adorn almost the entire floor of his kitchenette.

Manila and L.A. my ass.

@3:17, the only Manila and L.A. this kid knows is Manila folder and LA Gear.

There have been several drivers that had guns pulled on them, stuff stolen out of their vehicles and someone shooting a gun not only at the crossing apartments, but at the bay meadows apartment complex. Its about the safety of the drivers. There was a driver at robinson rd area that got jumped but someone who obviously dont have anything better to do than rob people instead if getting a job and working for what you want or need. Unfortunately a few bad apples will spoil it for the rest of us. You could always go pick up your food or cook.

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.
