Jackson has quite the opposite problem with its jails. Thugs that murder young white girls at stop lights walk free.

Bs. Most of those in the jail are for violent crimes.

I started a thread on this the other night but it got whacked, not sure why. Other than there were a couple of people being douchebags.
The girl was my nephew's friends. My SIL told me that the manhole cover was flipped up at a 90 degree angle, it wasn't missing. They think she tried to swerve and miss it, but instead hit it at an angle which caused the small convertible to slip. Someone hit it earlier and it ruined her wheel. Police and tow truck were called but the manhole was not fixed. Another man saw it called it in and nothing was done. He asked the dispatcher to have a police car sit in front of it until it could be fixed. No one bothered, and now a girl is dead. This is beyond tragic. I can't begin to comprehend her parents' pain, she was an only child.

Yeah it's absolutely tragic. All because some people just couldn't be bothered.

What’s the gender neutral label for manhole?

What we have here is a failure to give a shite.
Exact same mentality infects many other po dunk bullshite Redneck cities. They just take no pride in themselves or their city, and what you see every day in and along their roadways is a direct reflection upon them and the attitude of the city, and community really. People just keep taking it to the nuts, and think it comes with the territory. If it does, it’s because we don’t demand any better, and so we of course don’t get any better.

That is the type of neglect that New Orleans officials covet.

definitely not a podunk redneck city. People had been calling on that manhole all day. A woman that lives close to it could hear cars hitting it throughout the day. Police were called about it and did absolutely nothing. Meanwhile, you still have Kenneth Stokes running parts of the city and telling residents to throw rocks at cops from other cities when they enter Jackson. The problem is the leadership of the city are the most racist black people in America.

Redneck mentality has nothing to do with race.
