What was your reasoning for posting the article?


To provide a counterpoint to the racist narrative of the OP.

And like the author of that article, you had to use a murder from 2011 to make your counterpoint.

No, I don't know what color anyone on here is. Is that supposed to change something?

It literally just came across my newsfeed randomly. Jackson, MS, is not something I've thought about in...well, ever. I found it odd that there were 2 mentions in one day.

Let's not kid ourselves here. I lived in Madison, Miss for several years. Jackson is a hell hole, schools are a mess, crime is out of control, the IQ of the majority of the city council is a joke, and most of the residents don't care.

As I said, there is a reason that crap doesn't happen in Madison and it isn't hard to figure out why.

I'm under no illusion as to how shitty Jackson is.

Not meant for you personally.

Everyone that lives there, or has lived there knows exactly what Jackson is... and they know why it is that way.

Does Jackson still have that fancy art museum that they like to brag about?

Looks like your boy did some work. I was just in that same area a couple of weeks ago, walking to some of the eateries from the Hilton. What a shithole Jackson has become.

If Andrew Jackson was around he'd probably say something along the lines of "If you leftwing nitwits want to take me off the $20 bill make sure you take my name off that shithole in MS too."

I just can't really imagine why any reasonable person would live in Jackson or Montgomery or the like.


6 months was all I could take of living and working in the Jackson area. As soon as my lease was up, I quit my job and moved back to NOLA

Side note on that story from 2011:

Skylar Laine, who was a finalist for American Idol a few years back - her boyfriend was the ring leader and she was with them that night.

Her singing career ended with haste. She checked me out at her parent's restaurant a few weeks ago.

Madison is a great place to live. You are just surrounded by thugs on three sides and white trash on the other.
