I am curious to see at what point insurers start refusing coverage for business entities in this area.

We don’t have this problem in Flowood

Folks who purchased or leased at the King Ed, got any buyers remorse yet?

Odd video. Why are all those girls hanging around a shooting scene?

Pretty ladies love daiquiris. This place attracts pretty ladies. Guys looking for pretty ladies show up too. Now, only the top percent of guys can get the attention of these pretty ladies. The bottom feeders get pissed off and bring their guns which make them feel like big men instead of ugly manlets. Most women aren’t impressed by those impish trolls with guns. The imps want to scare off the tall handsome fellows who attract the pretty females, so violence ensues.

Happening as WJTV was doing their King Chokwe soft ball interview. LOCAL MEDIA LOCAL MEDIA LOCAL MEDIA is the true culprit for all of this at this point. Go check out the Sunday show interview ! I told y'all months ago all three of our local outlets think this guy is the second coming of Jesus.

Does this mean another week of pressers from Cowboy Andy?

9:47 there are several insurers that will not write in Jackson, or their rates are so high you won't write it with them. Redlining is illegal, but they can price it so high they won't write anything in Jackson, or they make it worth their while. Rates on Jackson properties are sky high, on top of Mississippi's already high property rates due to weather. Jackson property owners are getting huge rate increases on their annual renewals.

10:19 : Nope. Wasn't on the fairgrounds. Instead King Chokwe will rap about how it's someone fault other than his administrations and most certainly not the garbage trucks fault cause they can'y possibly stink.

Nope. It's Tombstone, Arizona. Where are the Earps when we need them?

Everyone calm down. Word on the street is the mayor is going to veto the shooting.

We had a window shot out at our church which is at the corner of Raymond and Ellis. The window company Metro Perkins Glass told us business is up because of stuff like this. He said they replaced a window at a dollar general the next day it was blown out again. Not only is crime up but places like these who are in the crossfire have to come out of pocket to replace the windows. Another reason to leave downtown. If you have any glass needs for your business call Metro Perkins Glass solid people.

I’ve yet to hear of any casualties. How do you fire 100 shots and nobody gets hit?

Why do we think this bar even has insurance? If state law now protects the property owner, why would he care if the club folks to whom he leases even has liability insurance?

The mayor was in Ridgeland Saturday night at Renaissance for the $150 ticket Sante South Wine Festival. Hobnobbing with a certain WJTV anchor as well while he was there. No wonder the softball questions from the media . . .

100 shots fired & no injuries - for once, the lack of a nightlife downtown & only a handful of residents there are an upside - fewer targets for random shootings.

Anonymous said...

@11:02 AM - Nobody has mentioned "liability insurance." We are talking property damage insurance, right?

@11:28 AM - Do tell (anchor).

Bullets ain’t cheap. Seriously, 100 missed shots?

@11:08
Simple answer is that these weapons are basically smoothbore jam-o-matics and you rarely even see any sort of sights installed on them. They are smoothbore from all the fouling and also caused by lots of mag dumping with cheap steel ammo. They were probably smoothbore before they even procured them out of Cletus and Jimbob’s unlocked pickups in Niknar.

Softballs? Brown was tossing him grapefruits.

Kingfish said...

Someone at the scene said the casings were made of steel, thus indicating ammo was probably Russian. If so, indicates Dracos were used.

I've been told the AR_ & AK47 pistols shoot differently than rifles and regular pistols. Easy to believe because if you watch that shootout between Officer Terrio and Chauncey Reed, Reed misses Terrios at pretty close range. The thugs probably aren't practicing with their little toys, not that I'm complaining. Feel free to correct me, gun nuts.

You can thank Ted Orkin for this.

You can get 5.56/.223 steel cased ammo as well and 7.62. AR platforms as well as Ak platforms will shoot either. Typically it is cheap and garbage but for street sweeping it will get the job done. I bet it's wolf ammo.

fed up in Jackson said...

is this how a "holistic" approach works?

does not seem very "safe"

Rukia, why isn't there a credible messenger clubhouse open 24/7/365 downtown? You could serve coffee and teach the 12 step thug program.

2022 just get weirder. Kenneth Stokes is starting to make sense.

Anybody know where I can get a "STOKES" hat?

How boutcha' Brad franklin? What do you say to this? Are you happy yet? You and your ilk have it now. See why we are so "happy" to welcome trash like this? Bunch of whiney, "oppressed" losers.

wlbt reports 7 more interpersonal unlivings this weekend due to the Mayoral commanded overall safeness of Jackson.

With the 7, do we have a 2022 ongoing tally?

Hope insurance pays for those windows!
You're looking at $35,000.00 window replacement cost!

Wow! Are there anyone staying in the Capital
Art Lofts?

Here's the solution....ready? Here it comes.....

Make bullets 1,000/ea. Yes, rich people don't go around firing off mags just to be the man. All shootings would cease and civilized society can return.

Anonymous said...

Most people simply don't use the sights on guns. Firing one handed out of a car window or from the hip only hits an intended target at bad breath distance or in a movie. Even the cheapest AK pistols can usually hit a 4 inch circle at 100 yards with every shot if locked in a vise with the human removed from the equation. Shorter barrels only decrease velocity and mechanically have no impact on accuracy. From a practical standpoint they are harder to shoot accurately, but mechanically they are no less accurate than a full size rifle.

All of the comments by gun experts aside, statistically I don't see how 100 shots, even if random and from cheap Russian guns, don't hit somebody.

IF you make bullets $1000.00 each.
Everyone would reload their own & sell extras.

Anonymous said...

Why not just make ammo illegal to manufacture and possess period? It worked so well with meth, heroin, and marijuana, right?

Don't be ridiculous, @4:55. Make it illegal to shoot people. Problem solved.

Why bother, since it is likely to happen again? Just put up plywood, which has the added advantage of being able to be painted with slogans such as "Welcome to Lumumbaville" and other cheerful homespun sentiments.......

9:30. The Capital Art Lofts are low income housing. Really.....

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.
