Everyone say...<b>@9:53 - See, that's the problem.</b><br /><br />Everyone says, "Not my problem," while the City of Jackson continues to pull down the entire Metro region, and subsequently, the entire State of Mississippi. Aren't we already paying? If you pay federal taxes, they're coming back to keep Jackson afloat. Where do you think the criminals go when the houses are empty in Jackson? Do you really believe that Clinton, Flowood, Ridgeland, and God-Forbid, Madison aren't targets? Do you think YOUR tax base can hire enough officers to stop it from coming into your backyard? Maybe you're in denial.<br /><br />Politics and greed have made the capital city a declining cesspool for upwards of forty years. No one of means wants to step in and help. And, by "help," I don't mean, a legislature-led armed invasion. Actually help a formerly large city that now has no leadership and no tax base. Yep. It's nothing but crime and a failing infrastructure. These are Mississippians, people, no matter who they elected or what they've done to get where they are. We all seem to be too busy pointing fingers and tweeting political hashtags while claiming, "it doesn't matter."<br /><br />Guess what? It does.<br /><br />Also? The chatter about Northeast Jackson seceding is hysterical. Even if they could, have any of you actually <i>BEEN</i> to NE Jackson lately? Who is going to secede? The four neighborhoods desperate for gates and armed snipers? Because the remainder of NE Jackson is just like the rest of Jackson.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-65020399497487046342022-08-01T10:33:37.477-05:002022-08-01T10:33:37.477-05:007:20 may have valid points, but when I lived in NE...7:20 may have valid points, but when I lived in NE Jxn (early 2000's) calling 911 multiple times to get an answer was the norm.<br /><br />So they've had 20+ years to find a way to triage unnecessary calls.<br /><br />Maybe they'll figure it out in another 20, but I was not dumb enough to stick around and pay exorbitant taxes while they workshopped ideas.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-5225671780176629072022-08-01T09:53:46.080-05:002022-08-01T09:53:46.080-05:00The tax paying people though out the State do not ...The tax paying people though out the State do not want to take over the City of Jackson.

Cities, "municipalities," are creatures of statute and law. What the Legislature giveth it can taketh away. See, e.g., Mississippi Code Title 21. Municipalities § 21-1-45. Procedure by qualified electors. If enough signatures could be gathered there are several avenues NE Jackson (or any other area) voters could use to kick the current City of Jackson to the crumbling curb. Some are more brute force, some are more elegant than others, some are more complicated than others, but there are codified laws, common law, and Constitutional provisions that could be cafeteria-planned and used to make big changes.<br /><br />I'm a bit surprised there hasn't been more talk about it in certain circles. If the law-abiding and the actual tax base, i.e., tax PAYERS along with property and business owners, wanted to get serious about it they could rock Chuckweed's world, along with the worlds of all the current bullshit- and con-artists now (mal)administering the Tchity (that's Indian for "place of incompetent dumbfuckery") of Jackson.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-37306419575900454702022-07-31T10:46:08.796-05:002022-07-31T10:46:08.796-05:00Ok 11:40, let's pump the brakes and proof our ...Ok 11:40, let's pump the brakes and proof our work.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-46780892467673701322022-07-31T08:46:29.997-05:002022-07-31T08:46:29.997-05:00Tate Reeves provided an opportunity to increase th...Tate Reeves provided an opportunity to increase the Capital police patrol to “help” with the shortage of JPD officers.

He knows a Republican Governor / legislature would NEVER run this City in a way that would promote a Kush nation (remember Big Chok?) The Federal government, on the other hand, that would be a dream come true for Baby Chok! Can you imagine the progressives' wet dream of taking over the second most "minority" city in the country? They couldn't think of enough ways to send money / promote this democrat utopia! You can bet Bennie's been laying the ground work on that for quite some time now (remember the RNA?)........<br /><br />Think about it: if the feds took it over and allowed the current administration to run wild with new, unlimited funding, who would oppose those democrat plans?
