This is the same location where the little boy was kidnapped/carnapped and murdered by the lowest form of human life several years ago. I still think about what happened to him.

Friends don't let friends shop at this Kroger. Why would a supermarket need armed security? Think about it.

Can’t believe there is only one comment? This is Madison poster red meat. Kingfish must be sleeping late.

How long do you think Kroger is going to put up with the crime at this location before leaving?

Glad the officer is ok. Good job.

Why make this announcement before you have all the facts? Why is the MBI involved? I hope for the sake of the LEO that there was a weapon.

If not for armed security no one would shop there.

6:26 am Yes, the same location. I think there have been other situations leading to shootings there, too I wonder if they need to post signs on the lot entrances warning store visitors about the increased danger level for anyone doing business with that grocer location.

They could get that nice young comedian girl to do a public service commercial saying "Shoot, I love shopping here! Seriously folks, be careful in Jacktown because someone might Jack you up here." Her wording might be funnier than mine.

I'm sure the lawyers will be fighting each other for the inbound lawsuit against Kroger.

Reason #65 to not stop and shop there

This Kroger is my Kroger. I've shopped there for years. Good folks, from the manager to the guy who cleans the floors. I have never had any issues and security guys are great. The volume that this store does is incredible. Will this deter me from going there? Nope.

This is the only Kroger left within the city limits of Jackistan. The only reason any business stays is that they are still making money. The entire I-55 business corridor, including Fondren is dangerous. If you drive an F-150 the odds of the truck being stolen is pretty good.

My wife shops there weekly as I’m on call a lot and don’t do grocery shopping. I do stop in there to pick up a 6 pack for a game time to time. Lived in meadowbrook highlands for 8 yrs now and it’s a clean grocery store.

1/20 @ 11:40 - Kroger should leave Jackson.

Really? Hasn’t that already happened. Flowood and Madison each have more Kroger stores than Jackson. They left Jackson ten years ago.

Close I-55 and guess where the thugs are gonna go. It’s not Piggly Wiggly.

When this Kroger closes due the unrelenting crime, the liberal lefties in the area will be screaming the tired ‘we live in a food desert!’ bullshit to the top of their lungs.

So wait a minute.. A bad guy with a gun at a pedestrian business and the good guys do their job. But somehow…. Someway it is met with no accolades. But a similar incident happens in Pearl and it’s the praise talk of the State.
Yall crazy..

Catch me at 327

Most of you jackasses don't live in Jackson and are a bunch of cowards to scared to even come to Jackson. I live in Fondren and it is safe. Best restaurants in the City. I shop at Kroger and never had an issue though I know there have been some incidents there. Half of you are talking out of your ass and don't know what you are saying. Just cozy up in your little suburban home all safe and sound with the rest of the pansies.

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.
