If they were members of Chowke's "dope boys" they wouldn't have been busted.
A fella could have a pretty good time in Vegas with all of that stuff.
How long before the Stokes presser on this?
Right around the corner from one of the best private schools in the State.
39211 continues its cancer thanks to all our "new neighbors". We had an almost perfect ward. Thanks liberals.
Maaaan everyone has a switch except me.
about a half mile north of chockwe's house...
I wish there was some sort of negligence charge for the Rankin asshole who likely left his “truck gun” in his unlocked vehicle overnight somewhere in Brandon or Flowood. Because these two didn’t buy that Glock from Van’s.
@12:35: This image should tell you how stupid simple it is to make a Glock full auto. Just like it is absolutely stupid simple to make an AR-15 full auto. It is one of the reasons it is easy for leftists to argue for banning them. It is also the reason why the NFA should be abolished. It is so easy that two criminal idiots with a 5th grade reading level can assemble an auto sear. But the law abiding can’t have it.
Most Americans don’t even know how much we have lost. My grandfather could mail order WW2 and Korean War military surplus gone from ads in Field & Stream. He could buy STEN Guns and boxes of Milsurp STEN magazines. German and Italian stuff too. He could buy it all cheap as chips. But they took that away in 1965.
For anyone curious about the cough medicine. It is mixed with other drinks to create a concoction known on the street as “lean” which is destroys their liver 10X worse than alcohol because they are drinking the entire bottle of medicine in one sitting.
@12:43, Delbert Hosemann lives closer.
Is that a fully-automatic iphone?

I think he just had a chronic cough-
@12:14 Did you know the original town mentioned in that line from Dr Strangelove was Dallas, but they dubbed Vegas over it before it was released due to the Kennedy assassination?
No, I didn't know that. Thanks.
I don't know what promethazine is, but where would you get 101 bottles of it?
I think that requires a prescription. Why would anybody want to take a drug that makes you drowsy and unable to think clearly? Jim Beam will do the same thing (according to my friend).
Odd you mentioned this bit of fun fact @ 3:02 PM. @ 12:41 the rifle used to kill Kennedy was order from a want add in Field & Stream by Lee Harvey Oswald. Ties in with @ 3:02 PM.
@3:28 think about how many single-parent children were conceived as a result.
Glad to hear of an actual drug bust in the city limits of Jackson. Tyree Jones, please continue the good work.
Promethazine????
Outside of the Sheriff and Capitol Police, Jackson leadership is worthless. Antar is worthless. Ashby Foote is worthless. JPD is worthless.
If you live in 39211 you better go vote in the DEM primary for mayor. Doesn’t matter what party you are - this election matters more to JACKSON than anyone in a generation.
@ February 21, 2025 at 12:44 PM - Not from Rankin. We take aim and don't waste ammunition. But, we can be assholes so please keep your distance.
Promethazine (street names ‘lean’, ‘drank’, ‘barre’, ‘purple stuff’, ‘syrup’ and ‘sizzurp’) is abused by mixing with opioids and other sedatives (incl. alcohol). It has become widely popular - most notably with adolescents - after a rap artist/producer created a genre of music, called ‘screw music', inspired by intoxication on codeine and promethazine.

Nothing seized should be illegal in the US. Especially the switch .

We have a "Strong Mayor, Weak Council" type City government, may benefit from a "City Manager, Strong Council, Weak Mayor" format instead. I mostly respect Ashby Foote, what specific issue causes you to dis him?
@3:22 you’d get 101 bottles by robbing a pharmacy or a truck or train.
