Brittany Brown: “No running water in Jackson. The heat index is 102 degrees. Schools and universities are closed. No way to cook, clean, bathe. This is the capital city, and the biggest city in Mississippi.”

In New Mexico we frequently say, “Thank God for Mississippi.”

I googled “running water in Mogadishu”. It’s undrinkable but parts of the city has it.

***Mexicans and most other Hispanics are highly weary of black people ***

Ever notice how blacks have disappeared in Mexico?

“Upkeep and maintenance know no color.”

Apparently it does when you factor in democrat vs republican.

From 2017:
“The citizens of Jackson have demonstrated overwhelmingly a readiness to be a progressive city and not only to correct the ills as we see them, but to be a model for the nation of what progressive leadership and collective genius can accomplish.”

I would say that they have certainly accomplished their goal. Congratulations Mayor Chokwe Lumumba and Jacksonville citizens!

From Clarion Ledger 2021: Jackson residents in need offered water bill forgiveness plan; $100 million owed city.

“Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba on Monday detailed the plan, which will allow the city to establish payment plans providing customers with additional time to make payments on their water bills. It will go into effect July 19.”

I wonder if this has anything to do with the current problem.

If this were Florida... DeSantis would fire the locals and appoint new leadership.

Just sayin’

What a wonderful thing it is, getting 3rd world countries online...

It’s helping lift them into prosperity, if only because they can use it to scam that much easier...

“Interesting.”

It’s more than interesting, miserare.

The Mexicans have collapsed Obuma’s black, racist “army” across the country.

Here’s what happened in Chicago when the Mayor Groot sent her racist, black thugs into Cicero to loot Mexican neighborhoods and businesses. The Mexicans set up armed barricades and chased the black, racist thugs back into their Chicago ghettos.

YouTube has scrubbed other videos showing the Mexicans attacking black, racist thugs.

They’d be sneaking across the Mason-Dixon line if the North hadn’t done anything.

I grew up in Jackson. Never ever had such a problem except in the big Flood of 79. That was fun for a few days. Then it was fixed by some intelligent and hard-working folks. The intelligent and hard-working folks died or moved away. Their children moved away. What was left was not intelligent nor hard-working, but they talk a good talk and vote Dimocrat.

I’m not sure if there was ever a Republican mayor of Jackson.

I’m maybe 100 miles south of Jackson. Been there a couple of times. Can’t say I was impressed. 🙂

Bunch of dumbasses. There wouldn’t be a two story building in Africa if not for whitey. They take over and everything turns to 3rd world s#$^holes.

White man there — white man’s fault.
White man leave — white man’s fault.

That is very possible, but if you read the twitter comments at the link it’s Republican/ white people’s fault. Somehow.

I suspect that what these folks don’t realize what they are really saying is that it’s only white/Republican rule that can create and maintain civilization, and that democrat/black rule can’t do it. Or they are incapable of it without white people’s/Republican’s help.

Quite an indictment of themselves.

“Keep voting for republicans and eventually MS can be last in everything.”

What an idiot! Jackson has been run by the looniest DemonRats forever.
