Don't You Mr. Archie Me!

 Yesterday's meeting of the Hinds County Board of Supervisors was one for the books as you know who went on a tirade lasting over ten minutes.  Just watch.

Compare this to the City of Brandons Board of Aldermen meeting last night and you will see why Jackson is broken.

Look at the conspiracy yelling like a child.

And yet he is shocked and appalled that he lost his election.

I live in a neighboring county and work in Jackson so I do not technically have a dog in this race, but at first when he would grandstand like this I thought, man , this guy Is really passionate about helping the people, but now I just think he's passionate about keeping power. People elect folks based on who is going to be good stewards of their tax dollars in an attempt to maximize their quality of life.....

NOT this shit

I miss the good old days when only 2 year olds went into tirades and learned by age 3 to cease and desist.

It was understood that humans who went on tirades (a temper tantrum in an adult after language development) after age 4 (even slow learners grasp the foolishness eventually) were to be avoided.

It's still wise to avoid them. They are self-centered troublemakers, who are unreliable as friends and potentially dangerous. Even sending them away to various military schools, institutions of learning and even military service serves only to mildly reduces the volume and physical symptoms. They move to the status of Narcissistic Personality Disorder as all they've learned is to mask some but not all, the worst symptoms. As they grow older, they lose whatever control they had to hide their anger when they didn't "get what they wanted when they wanted it or how they wanted".

Multiple divorces and tirades are common in narcissists. They turn on friends and employees without warning. Nothing is ever enough as they are aware they are feared more often than loved and seldom actually earned whatever gains they made.

8:21 - well, that may be true in your county, but the voters in Jackson/Hinds County don't think like that. If they did this circus would not be occurring. Look who they elect time and time again. Now, granted the pickin's are pretty slim when it comes to intellectual candidates. So when you combine an non-intellectual voter pool with non-intellectual candidates, no one should be surprised at the outcome.

It’s sad that society has chosen to honor this vapid culture of emotional outbursts over people with factual intellect.

Low IQ people genuinely seem to erroneously interpret this lunacy as talent.

It’s a shame we don’t laugh and point fingers at the nut-jobs anymore. Instead, we elect them to positions of power and are repeatedly shocked when those cities fall into ruins.

Why is this news ? This is business as usual for anything coming out of Hinds County and the COJ.

I read where all systems of Hinds County are down due to hackers. How can they stream meetings?

Some folks come to elected office thinking they have won a seat on some great deliberative body where one veers off into impassioned speechifying and gesticulating about weighty matters of governance. People like Archie haven’t a clue they’re there to keep the lights on and the floors neat and clean.

He is a narcissist on steroids. Narcissists are five year olds in an adult body who throw tantrums to get their way.

Why the hell do they still have plexiglass up?
If it's bullet proof, I understand, but if they are still under the spell of c19 propaganda then... well... actually, nothing surprises me. Nevermind.

David has mental issues which he self-medicates through his political activity. Jackson and Hinds County residents are so confused that they will vote for "leadership" that promises to "tell it like it is". That is an open invitation for loud mouths like David to fill their needs. Hopefully, they are starting to realize it's time for handling business rather than voicing complaints.

He really needs to sign up for a medical marijuana prescription.

Besides the rant, he may have a point about waste of the county money and the squandering of money in the city.

Not even a scintilla of self-awareness.

As soon as I have the money to move out of Hinds county, I am moving. I'm tired of uninformed votors electing and re-electing clueless candidates. I don't think the Hinds County Boardof Supervisors could run a lemonade stand properly.

He exudes such a calm confidence-

Well apparently the voters of Hinds County and Jackson have had enough of Archie's antics because they have at last voted him out of office. Hopefully the new supervisor brings a measure of sanity to the role

He wants to be a committee of one. There's just no other way with this guy, and when others want to play he loses his head.

The question was asked as to why they still have plexiglass up. For the same reason that so many of their constituents walk around with masks pulled down below their noses - ignorance.

I love at the 7.35 mark the white guy getting the hell out of there when things start escalating.

I live on a farm in Hinds county and crossed party lines, like many others, in the primary to specifically cast a vote against this clown. Thankfully, It worked, and he will soon be gone. However several of us have speculated that he will damage, destroy or steal something before his term expires. We shall see. He was invisible in the area and one would be hard pressed find a single project he initiated to improve the area. There are roads within spitting distance of the county barn that are like driving over an exploded mine field. Calls and meetings resulted in no actions. Good riddance.

Archie’s son or nephew murdered a Party City employee

I've never witnessed somebody being that angry and not getting up and hurting somebody. Which makes me conclude his anger is staged and he's just a blow-hard.

Has nobody got access to a gavel? Gavel him down and he won't shut up after that, have him arrested and removed.

Wasn't Archie's campaign motto "It's my way or the highway?"

I resent the cultural appropriation. Archie comics have been a Caucasian institution for decades and along comes this poseur playing Archie and Jughead at the same time.

I had to look up "narcissist" and I found a photo of Archie next to the definition.

Still believe that they will have to use a battering ram to get to him in his office and drag him bodily out of he building when it's time for transition.

The Hinds County at every level. is letting the ball drop.

The online payment websites for all county taxes are not secure. My security system warns me.

The phones for county offices or official are not answered.

I have little doubt the systems are antiquated and understaffed. That problem is not uncommon. What IS uncommon is those we elect seem unable to learn how to do the jobs we elected them to do. They need to ask questions if they have no clue how to solve problems and improve city services.

I would like an audit of ALL Hinds County by an independent forensic accountant. If I can find out what improvement would cost and how funding can be obtained, the people who are getting paid, should know or be taught. When I go in person, the people up front are working very hard. But, it seems to me they are getting the support and help they need.

I would also like those we elect to tell us A PROBLEM, they know how to solve and how they would solve it. Pick ONE. Don't tell me how you like one guy or firm more than the other. I want to what change in the process you'd make that would give YOU or YOUR PARTY more POWER but that is a structure, process, system that has worked and is working anywhere else in the country.

It's a big hint when you want one system or branch to "take over" without ANY specific failure of employees or equipment or expenditures to tell us taxpayers.

IF YOU CAN"T DO THE JOB WE ELECTED YOU TO DO GO HOME! Any fool can quarrel and blame others,hurl insults. MORE AND MORE OF US ARE SICK OF IT! The people that are the MOST frustrated are the hard workers, trying to do a good job, that YOU LAZY Preening IDIOTS neglect in equipment and other help needed to get their tasks done. God forbid you should actually go visit them and ASK what they need to do more faster and better.

This comedic circus! The toilet bowl of current Administration! Let's not forget the 60 Minute interview which was recently aired on television! And Jackson residents wonder why they're portrayed as they are?!?! You can't make this up!!
You people are making yourselves the laughing stock of the city, State & United States by electing these selfish individuals who want nothing more than to use you as doormats! Wake up Jackson & do better! You will see better & live better!! Until then you'll remain the laughing stock of Mississippi & the United States!!

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.

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.
