Jackson Jambalaya

What did he mean they would be a city within a city? They would still have to pay Jackson taxes and etc. It's kind of hard to follow what he's saying.

I had a friend who used to live in Broadmoor who did the same thing every New Year's Eve.

Come on Mr. Stokes, it's just a perception of gunfire. Just like with Election Commissioner Shirley Varnado - her armed carjacking was also a perception of crime.

If Jackson complains about a city within a city, I want to complain about a city airport in another county. Splain that to me, gents. You can't have it both ways.

Let's see his travel reimbursement claim for the period that includes New Year's eve.

He was isolated in a hotel due to Covid. While there he did not hear gunshots, even NYE. But while on the phone wishing Mrs. Stokes HNY, who was at their house, he could hear gunshots through the phone.

How long until the race pimps accuse Kenny of internalizing white supremacy and formulating anti-Black bias?

City Council resolution against State House bill 1020 is a statement that "Black" is more important than commerce, prosperity, competence and safety.

Forget color, embrace law enforcement and competent government so everyone gets a chance to excel and succeed!

KF you need to devote an entire thread explaining how the Jackson airport ended up in Rankin. Then maybe they will comprehend but I doubt it!

You had to go, so you are full of it, much like Stokes…

Sounds like Stokes' interesting claim about Lumumba's relationship with the state refers to Stokes' comment about "they" had an "ultimatum" for the mayor. Stokes continues, "They gave the mayor until January to step down. He decided not to. He thought the white people were playing." Stokes goes on to talk about a pickshare plan (I couldn't understand the exact term, sorry that I don't know what that is) but he says it's basically creating a city within a city. Who is "they"? Any explanations about an ultimatum?

Stokes has been a councilman for decades. If his neighborhood is so crappy that he can't sleep there on holidays, he has no one to blame except the man in the mirror.

"KF you need to devote an entire thread explaining how the Jackson airport ended up in Rankin. Then maybe they will comprehend but I doubt it!"

Type "airport" in the search bar at the top, and you'll see all the articles Kingfish has published about the airport, including it's beginnings.

City within a city? Perhaps Stokes is a dilemma in an anomaly wrapped in an enigma.

Despite knowing his city is defined by depravity, ineptitude and blood, he is unable to choose a world view free of racial division and thence stridently pursue it to provide the possibility of prosperity for all.

Choke on it Stokes. You contributed to this mess. I remember you rabble rousing to throw rocks and bottles at suburban police. As far as I'm concerned you should have a target on your back when you're outside of Jackson.

He said "Pickering Plan". Presumably referencing either Chip or Stacey Pickering. Though I don't know exactly what that plan is.

1:48, where does it say a city can’t be in two counties?

It's amusing to see ( now that Stokes is on right wing radio) that you all believe he is no longer the non-sensical, gluttonous, narcissistic idiot he always has been.
I think he hopes to appeal to the Eastover/CCJ Republicans in hope of getting to be mayor.


God help us if you are all that dumb.
IF he runs, I want to see his tax history as I don't think he's ever "earned" much enough to afford his flamboyant excess in all things.

Describe Stokes flamboyance? Historically he's mostly been a loudmouth in a cheap suit and a baseball cap reminding the wearer and observer of his last name and who comically refers to himself in the third person and used to go around with a two man entourage.

I rode an elevator with him and his crew of two once and experienced sardine suffocation.

Then 2 years ago ago? fell of his donkey, had an epiphany and realized feral savages threatened him,his friends and constituents.

Maybe he should’ve stayed home and thrown rocks and bottles at the folks shooting those NYE guns to make them stop

"HE DUMB AS A ROCK!!!"

Councilman Stokes, regarding Chowkwe Antar Lumumba. My favorite part of the show.

Sadly, he's not 'that' dumb, or he'd already be facing charges. I have no doubt his antics will be his downfall eventually, but not until after he's orchestrated the complete destruction of our state capitol. Sad.

Flamboyant as it an effort to draw attention to himself. Stylish doesn't mean his "style" is other than garish and tacky is irrelevant as you should be able to glean by looking at any "red carpet" event these days.
That the fabric is less than the best quality also has little to do with price these days. The yards used and alterations also affect cost.
Wealth doesn't buy class or good taste or good judgement or more brain cells...it can get you fair weather friends and supporters who see an opportunity for themselves.

Stokes is the darling of White Jacksonians -- for now. But it's so only because Antar has made his radical entrance onto the stage show that is the Jackson political theater and shoved Stokes to the right, relatively speaking. Stokes hasn't changed; remove Antar from the dramatis personae and Stokes will again become White Jackson's pin cushion.
