The ghetto gun culture has hit a lot of small towns


Delta towns here can’t hardly get any police. Can’t afford to pay for good cops and the ones they do get don’t do anything other than collect a check and write the report. Most sheriffs depts aren’t any better. They won’t even attempt to find stolen ATVs or trucks. Had a farm truck stolen not long ago they made no effort to find it. Eventually it turned up on a back road burned up

On a positive note, they won’t try to locate criminals who mysteriously go missing either….

These small, predominantly black towns in MS go all out for high school homecomings. At the one I attended last night as the visiting team, you could smell the weed as soon as you parked on the campus. Multiple DJ stages were set up. Between the alcohol and weed, I’m surprised it doesn’t happen more often.

This is obviously due to the new freeway bypass that goes from the river bridge and around Greenville and Leland leading to economic hardship in those towns. Institutional racism at work. Obviously


You could tell me that was a mayor Pete quote and I'd believe you

The fly high t-shirts will certainly bring awareness to stop this madness

There's no "white trash meth culture" in Leland fricking Mississippi. It's the Mississippi delta


This. It’s 10% wealthy white landowners and business owners, 10% middle class whites, 15% middle class blacks and small business owners, and 65% ghetto trash

I can tell you it’s well known when the local public school in a delta town has homecoming, us white people will not be seen anywhere out that night. It’s lock your doors and watch a movie time

Regular occurrence now. How long before visiting teams refuse to play there?

I’m guessing the town is a little different than when he grew up.


It’s actually one of the better delta towns but has been in quick decline. It used to be more of a white suburb of Greenville with the Mississippi state agriculture research complex there and some old cotton money with beautiful homes along deer creek

Weird how the major news outlets aren't really covering it much.

The lack of national media coverage tells me this is definitely White Supremacy again.

Holy shite. We played in Cleavland and I drove right thru the middle of that shite about 10:30 last night heading home. There were cars and people all over the highway around the high school and I had to pick my way thru it. I legit almost grabbed my pistol from behind the seat because it was so sketchy looking, and I'm used to all sorts of culture. Crazy

Mississippi screwed up by not extending the Greenville Bypass around Leland and connecting it to US 61. Would let you avoid two shitholes instead of just one.
