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

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

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

Fighting over who gets the fat one. Sad.

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?

Anonymous said...

@ 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.

Anonymous said...

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?

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?

Anonymous said...

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.

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.

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.

Anonymous said...

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.

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.

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.

Wow said...

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.

Anonymous said...

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 .

Anonymous said...

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.

Anonymous said...

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.

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).

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

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.

Trollfest '07

Sonjay Poontang and his band headline the night with a special steel cage, no time limit "loser must leave town" bout between Alan Lange and "Big Cat"Donna Ladd following afterwards. Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.

If you get tired come relax at the Fox News Tent. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag.
