Jackson Jambalaya

Where is this?

Note to self:

eat somewhere else.

Figures. Probably in the "new, improved and better 39211".

Somebody was served fewer crab legs than the next table. I would get upset too.

I can’t get it to play. Where is this?

Kicking Crab Jackson. Saw it was on Ridgewood Road in Jackson.

This is literally the reason we can’t have anything nice.

Whole world has gone off the deep end!

It took the Jackson Po Po 30 minutes to get there.

Everybody was Kung fu fighting!

Those are some big womens.

Third world trashy animals.

Good goobily goo, look at all them shoe throwing mothers.

Like animals

Jackson. But barely Jackson. Won't be long and we'll see this in Tico's.

it happens, best to get separate checks.

The saddest part of this is that the little kids are seeing and learning.

M Bar is apparently not the only problem out there.

6:35 - This is nothing more than a daily home-training lesson for the children.

Fighting over who gets the fat one. Sad.

I'm sure they all closed out their tabs first.

Can you imagine a business owner seeing this that is considering opening in Jackson?
This really is why we can’t have nice things.
When a seafood restaurant needs full time security guards, the cat lady has finished her solo.... sad.

What happened to the guy who said “back in my day we used to fight?”

These people fought.

No guns used.

Damned if they do and damned if they don’t.

Sad. Sad. Sad. However, this no more represents Jackson than the murder that occurred in Ridgeland, represents the city of Ridgeland. The vast majority of people got out and have a fine dining experience in the City of Jackson. The vast majority of people in Jackson did not experience criminal activity. Let's stop taking the extremes and making it a representation of the entire city.

You talk as if there is a long list of businesses looking to open in Jackson. There aren’t. Businesses usually don’t want to open in poor, low income, dangerous cities.

Take away the incident in Ridgeland yesterday and what do you have? A great safe place to live and work. Take away the incident in the Jackson restaurant last night and what do you have? Still a poor, dangerous, dirty, gross city. Let’s not kid ourselves.

9:51. What neighborhood do YOU live in? Do YOU live in the ever decaying neighborhoods now prevalent throughout 39211? Thank you very much. Is YOUR house now valued at less than $100/foot?

@ 9:51

I agree and I implore Jackson residents to patronize your local eating establishments and not spend your money in violent areas like Madison and Rankin counties.

9:51 Would you prefer a fine dinner at Walker's while being serenaded by anti abortion protestors? Maybe a fine dinner at the Mayflower followed up by meeting with an aggressive panhandler or two along the way back to your car? Maybe a fine brunch to a place with no running water with a trip to a porta potty that reeks of feces gratis? Dinner outside at Manship while the homeless man walking to the bus stop by Baptist yells at you? Maybe just settle for a lunch at the District wondering if your house is being broken into while you try to eat an undisturbed meal?

Should have used this in Bruce Willis next movie!

Note to April 25, 2021 at 9:51 AM:
The person who died on I55 in Ridgeland was shot in Canton then traveled south
on I55.

That's the old Grady's location on County Line Road which is called the Juicy Seafood. It's about a quarter mile from the Murder Bar and right next to the Skybox.

Remember when the owner of the Skybox got on Facebook drunk and bragged about his Rolls and his Bentley while threatening people who left him negative Yelp reviews? Now he's running a car wash and is transforming his daiquiri bar into a store called Kool Dill that will be selling Kool Aid pickles (according to his Facebook page). No joke.

If I were Bop's, I'd be looking to get out of my County Line Road store lease like tomorrow!

Perhaps a steel cage, laced with razor wire for extra security, should be built around the city limits of Jackson. No access to resources from outside the cage, and every man, woman and child for themselves! Give it 3-6 months for the degenerates to kill each other off before reopening Jackson, and then starting fresh. Maybe this will work, to make some of us who left that hellhole YEARS AGO, want to visit again and at least look around.

I've just got a blank space where the video should be. Can someone tell me whose video it is, and its headline, so I can google it?

What a shame! This behavior should not be tolerated. Those fighting should be arrested and charged with disturbing the peace, destroying of property and assault. Unfortunately, the County Line Road corridor has deteriorated significantly over the years. Between the liter, the homeless people that frequent the area, throw trash and loiter; and the discount retail establishments, which attract a changing demographic (now that west and south Jackson have been devastated), County Line Road and Northpark Mall don't have much of a chance for universal appeal unless there is a concerted effort by stakeholders to nip all these issues in the bud.

"What happened to the guy who said “back in my day we used to fight?”

Well 9:37, I'm still here.

Since you asked, never once did we demolish any establishment.
Moreover, our girlfriends didn't "join in".

Have you ever heard the phrase " take it outside" ?

We did.
These folks don't.

Seems even the very worst of us old boomers had better home training.

"Maybe a fine dinner at the Mayflower"

Thankfully, those original TOUGH Greek owners (of all great Jackson restaurants) passed away before they witnessed such animalistic behavior.

But I'm willing to bet, every one of them would have dealt with such nonsense on the spot.

Calling JPD would have been an afterthought for those men.

" County Line Road and Northpark Mall don't have much of a chance for universal appeal unless there is a concerted effort by stakeholders to nip all these issues in the bud."

True, but that will never happen.

Seems Ridgeland even saw the light ... and wrote-off the County Line Road area years ago.

So now their focus is developing land West of I-55.

@1:58 for what? it was a mostly peaceful disagreement......................

My god look at the carnage.

Drove through the Ridgewood Rd-Adkins Blvd intersection Saturday (same place as a drive-by last week). As I got to the intersection, a car heading south pulled into the left turn lane then blew through the intersection to continue south. Meanwhile one of Jackson's blue line sat in the stopped southbound lanes and did nothing.

I would like to leave this ghetto but I can't (I'm the caretaker of my dad and he refuses to leave). With each shooting and death he shakes his head but still refuses to consider leaving. One day he is going to pass and I will get cents on the dollar for my childhood home.

7:55. Thank you. I wish to God I could leave but my agoraphobic wife who cannot drive will not. We have lived in 39211 for almost 50 years. It is going to hell, over the last 10 years or so. Reading and seeing his trashy, classless, "no home training" new neighbor behavior is running me crazy. I want to say more, but if it do, my comments will get bleeped out.

8:38. The "new people" don't think like the "old people" do. Think culture differences. It will never get "fixed". Move. Now.

1st thought: Damn Gina!!

2nd thought: Why y'all gotta tear up something that don't belong to you?!

3rd thought: The ice cream machine must have been broke!!

OMG I thought the koolaid pickle store was a joke until I looked it up on FB. This is unbelievable. I remember when there used to be nice restaurants and shops on county line road. Its starting to look like the highway 80 corridor did 20 years ago.

Don’t break up the fight let ‘em rummmmmmble.

I guess this is what is considered a "family-friendly" restaurant in the city of Jackson these days.

#defundthepolice

I see the people on here talking about how places are going to hell in Jackson and this and that, but if everything closes, where do you actually think these problems are going to next, and away is definitely not the answer. It'll pour over into your neighborhoods next so don't be so quick to throw the towel in on poor areas as it'll make the poor migrate your way.
And when I say poor I mean black and white alike.

Conflict resolution is a huge problem down here.

You see this with both races. The threat of a physical fight is always looming.

There needs to be a real conversation seeking solutions for the fact that AA males are the most likely demographic to be perpetrators and victims of gun violence.

This is actually in FLOWOOD . It happens at golden coral there also. BUT , I used to deliver medical supplies in and around Jackson, gunshots are normal there , even during the day . But dont condemn everyone , there are a lot of very nice hard working people in EVERY area of Jackson. Just a shame that that happens .

How do you propose the surrounding counties improve the conditions in Jackson 8:45am?

We cant force residents vote for conservatives, and we cant make them suddenly develop and value morals.

We can however, hope that when this behavior happens in our cities the people that we elect will prosecute the criminals.

There was an election recently in Jackson...doesn't seem like the voters wanted anything to change at all.

This is not in Flowood. The faux stone archway and the dark scored concrete haven't changed since it was Grady's.

This is County Line Road next to Bop's Frozen Custard and Ray-Ray's Car Wash & Kool-Aid Pickle Emporium.

12:42, your accurate and descriptive location clarification made me laugh out loud.

And yes...that is NOT in Flowood.
That is County Line Rd.

It was at The Juicy Seafood in Jackson. The video of the fight just aired on WJTV at 6 PM 4/26/2021. Jackson police took forever to arrive per live witness. Watch WJTV at 10 PM.

6:22 PM You got the wrong place & Station.
It was on WAPT not WJTV. The name of the place Kickin' Crab.
Below is the url address.
6:22 PM Improve your reporting skills.

This location was never Grady's, this started as Romano's Macaroni Grill. Grady's was at the location at southeast corner of Ridgewood Court and County Line (one time a Barnhill's Buffet and then a very short time as a chinese restaurant called Fortune).

Looks like a congress to me

The Juicy Seafood - formerly Kickin' Crab.

I cant be for sure, but one woman's voice sounds just like the "Customer" who had a "Customer Service" Issue at the Picadilly back in 2018.

Leeeeet's Get Ready to Ruuummmbblllllle!!!
Live from the Piccadilly on Robinson Road. Um, these people do know that the Saturday wrasslin' post was a joke, right? Serve you?

I really can’t see what turns Jackson around at this point. Too many issues at once to address and no desire to address them. Sad spiral

Dude in the wife-beater punches like a girl... I mean, furreal.
County Line Road is just basically Ellis Avenue now... Yeesh.
