Hinds County Sheriff Tyree Jones had a few things to say about the violence that took place downtown yesterday:
Violent, crime ridden, coward, lack of home training, no regard for life, virus specimens, that absolutely don’t deserve to breathe the same air as some of us, are the ones responsible for the violence in downtown Jackson last night. Let’s separate what happened from the Hal's St. Paddy's Parade & Festival. It’s these cruel minded specimens that bring their violent behavior to the streets thinking they’re impressing some, but hurting so many others, and continuing to cast a dark cloud over the city. These POS deserve no place in society, and corrective measurements should be imminent, since their homes lacked accountability and corrective measurements. There’s nothing more dangerous than a coward with a gun! Pookie, Pookie Earl, Ray Ray, Junebug and all of em, the devil in human conformities! The community suffers, businesses suffer and families suffer, all because of their stupidity! Divine intervention is needed!
One gentleman posted a video on Facebook of some of the chaos that took place after the shootings. Warning: the video is graphic and shows disturbing images.

I am quite impressed with the Sheriffs' overview of what the entire country is dealing with when it comes to urban areas. The events on Saturday demonstrate why the quality of life for Jacksonians diminishes daily. It's the crime, stupid.
Tell it like it is, Tyree.
Sounds like the animal vermin keep doing what they do. It’s such a shame that you can’t go to a JXN public event without fearing for your well being.
Where’s Hiz Honor ? Still pimping in Detroit while Jxn burns
I now have more respect for Sheriff Tyree Jones.
Finally a major figure from Jackson/Hinds County spoke the truth about the current "kul'cha" ( Sorry, I meant to say culture) ... that many embrace in the Jackson area.
The High Sheriff should learn to be more proactive to crime rather than reactive. Cute social media posts will do nothing but get him likes. Which is what I’m afraid that’s all he’s concerned about.
More perception of crime and there are no gangs in Jackson. Right?
"...Those responsible should be identified, held accountable and prosecuted to the full extent of the law," said Jones. (Except for those 'eligible' for blessings).
Lumumbas Bold New Shitty
To the brothers and sisters who see what’s going on in Jackson – it is your responsibility to get rid of Lumumba
Judges must start throwing these criminals when convicted away! Throw their asses away. Judges must set the example, lives matter!
I'll be more impressed when they catch and prosecute the perps who did this. That's what counts most.
Move the parade to rankin county, Jackson has proven it’s unsafe from past shootings. This parade is intended for families to watch floats and not a TAILGATING fiasco of bbq grills, raucous music and debauchery. What do you expect when people tossing Patron shots at 11:30 am and selling dollar tree items like a swap meet in Compton when it’s suppose to be about the floats and children! It’s nothing like the parades in eighties and nineties. It’s low class and dangerous!
I don’t know how you reverse this downward spiral? Everything is broken; not just city services. Zero respect, self responsibility, or. Impulse control is hard to change. With the lack of effective law enforcement and a feckless judiciary, bad actors thrive. Not sure where this all leads, but, it seems it will include many more burnt out buildings and broken lives.
"The High Sheriff should learn to be more proactive to crime rather than reactive".
Well 7:27 PM, Please tell us your ideas about how the "High Sheriff"
can be proactive when trying to figure out what these feral thugs and
thug-ettes may do.
(perhaps have a Jackson wizard conjure up a crystal ball for him) ?
As the world is finding out, judges have been a major problem all along when they won't take a case, or they rule for the path of least resistance. The entire judiciary of the U.S. is not one of a republican nature, and must be reformed.

Don't drag Jxn criminal parades to Rankin County. Move them to the zoo. Then they will self destruct and be canceled. Who didn't know crowds downtown invite shootings?
Writing as a resident of Rankin County, we wish to politely decline.
10:24, you really think Rankin wants that parade?
There's GOT to be a way to allow the State of MS. Government to come in and just take over this mess in Jackson! The course of lawlessness (deaths, etc.) and fiscal corruption within cannot continue especially as our capital city! Governor Tate please do something! Hell, the state is flushed with funds and the power I am sure!
@1:27 that’s what the taxpayers pay him over $100k a year to do. Not using AI to come up with catchy social media posts and riding around on a horse to get the perfect action photo. Public safety is at stake and people want to feel safe.
If folks stop disrespecting, nobody be gettin' their ass shot.
Remember, it starts with broken windows.
Attention civilized people: Quit trying to have nice things in Jackson. You are wasting your time.
It's time to move to the suburbs. My family deserves better. There's rot in that culture and no group outside of it can fix it - we've wasted trillions trying with entitlements - it has to be done by those within it.
I agree put the parade route on LAKELAND DR! Rankin county is basically Valhalla! I love my vacation home in quiet Pelahatchie
Wouldn't surprise me if both the deceased and the shooter are both well known to the local D.A. under federal indictment.
@10:31pm
You can't reverse it because when law enforcement tries to reverse it "the card" gets played.
no one is going to take that parade. the thugs come with it. its over
The parade is there because it is the 'Hal's St. Paddy's Day Parade' of Hal and Mal's restaurant. There is a big pre and post parade party at Hal and Mal's.
Talk is cheap. We need more action and less speeches. The sheriff cannot even handle the prison and the criminals are locked up, or supposed to be. It is easy to stand there and tell people what you are going to do. Doing what you said is another thing.
The news footage showed filth and garbage worse than New Orleans. Who paid for the cleanup? I hope there were no public funds involved. Now, this should prove that the DA, Owens was bought by the drug dealers and gangs in jackson. (I still refuse to capitalize the j until the city turns completely around). And you never heard one word from the mayor on this subject did you? And No, the residents of both Madison and Rankin want the parade because the corruption will follow it. The parade needs to be put to rest forever. All good things must come to an end whether we like it or not. It served its purpose but, it’s time, just like the zoo, to retire both. This city has nothing left to offer and eh new buyer of the Regions Building will realize it very soon. He just pissed 2.85 million dollars down the drain.
No one should come to Jackson unless your job is here and you don't have a choice. It is too dangerous, it is trashy, it is over-run by homeless and is just plain nasty. If you have to work here like I do, be thankful you get to go home and get out of this hell hole.
