It is frightening. What you have in a city like Jackson is democracy working in reverse. When the overwhelming majority of the electorate in a large metropolitan city is ignorant and uneducated, and in many cases willfully so, the leaders they elect will be the bottom of the barrel. And Jackson has hit bottom. It's like somewhere in Venezuela.

nope, thats all democracy for you.
as Thomas Jefferson said,
"Democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where 51% of the people may take away the rights of the other 49%."
