Jackson Jambalaya

Management by committee.

No sessions in NEJxn. Why am I not surprised?

The mayor obviously doesn't know what he is doing! No surprise, no experience.

He don't need no stinkin' NE Jackson, bro.

He just needs NE Jxn's tax money.

NE Jackson pays for your broke, unemployed ass, bro.

Y'all have little understanding of Jackson if you don't think hosting a session at First Pres doesn't count as listening to Northeast Jackson

11:08–it’s willful ignorance on their part. There isn’t a thing you can say to them to change their minds. It’s sad, but they’re a bunch of dinosaurs who cannot be bothered to consider a new thought.

The sheriff is near!!!

@9:25. Ummm...First Pres isn't exactly gonna attract people from south and west Jackson. That is where NE Jackson will go.

N.E. Jax already has a police chief - Bo Luckey.

JPD needs to be disbanded and all funds shifted towards the CPD, interview and retain those officers who are worth keeping. Get the courts out of the Water Depts. business and collect past due accounts. Shut the zoo down, and by all means identify those city departments that need budgets that need to be cut or eliminated.

First Pres is NOT NEJxn. There are plenty of venues in NEJxn that could have hosted one of these 'listening' sessions, which, let's face it, is only perfunctory bullshit.

I was born in NE Jackson and I never considered 1 mile of West Street to be Northeast Jackson. That’s like the people that live near Dogwood off Lakeland Drive and say they live at the Reservoir.

Will there be balloon releases at these meetings? Sing kumbaya and/or that alternative National Anthem??

Man I love this page. If Horhn just appointed someone with no input:
"BUT WHY NOT ASK THE PEOPLE!!???"

He holds these sessions to get the input of the people:
"THIS IS PERFUNCTORY GARBAGE AND HE CAN'T DO THE JOB"

Y'all are a fickle bunch of people. Like they say, there's no pleasing everyone. Or seemingly anyone, in this case. No wonder Jackson is in the shape it's in.

Yes. All of this.

Word is good ole Marshall Pack has it. Anyone remember him?

1:52 - You summed up what I and probably others were thinking, except for one thing - the peanut gallery of pain about Jackson comes from the neighboring counties that have their share of corruption. Pointing fingers and slinging mud at Jackson residents is their way of turning heads away from it. As much as there are things that I don't like when I drive from home to work in Jackson that I see, there is an equal amount of shit in Madison and Rankin Counties that makes me want to throw up when I drive through them too.

Looks like a perfect job for Sean Tindell. He is a law enforcement officer now according to state law.

12:23, That’s a great plan, except for it being illegal for the Capitol Police to assume jurisdiction over the whole city, and the water system being under the jurisdiction of the federal court.

Name one.

"That’s like the people that live near Dogwood off Lakeland Drive and say they live at the Reservoir."

No one in true Flowood claims they live at the Reservoir. Maybe the other way around, but no, that that way. There is some Brandon 39047 over there and that is called Reservoir Brandon.

This is why Jackson will continue to get worse. The mayor should try being a leader and appoint a Sheriff. We had such high hopes for the city’s turnaround. Oh well….

Hire the first certified law enforcement officer that can fix the water leak at the Jackson zoo that’s been spewing water for years!

We need someone with an actual brain, that’s humble, a clean track record, and isn’t constantly seeking attention from social media like the current interim police chief.

If Mayor Horn was smart, he would either look at Robert Johnson either as a Chief of Police candidate or an advisor in a search for one. Chief Johnson's appointment was one of the few things Mayor Ditto got right. When Mayor Harvey Johnson terminated him JPD began to decline.
