If anything, we’d like to lose some of the bisuness we DO get, namely the “Black Beach Break” events, where they make Hwy 90 into a huge parking lot, enter convenience stores to carry off the beer they don’t drop everywhere , leave without paying the restaurant bill for huge parties, leave without paying for gas, thump rap music long and loud all night, terrorise the citizens (such as the young girls leaving a mall who had their blouses stripped from them by a pack of the “young men just out wilding”-and this was recorded on camera and was on the local news), urinating and defecating in people’s yards, blocking neighborhood streets so that the legal residents are not allowed to get to their homes without ID-if then, with the blockage. We WISH they’d boycott! They know we could do without their presence for this purpose so they threaten to come back every year. If they weren’t just wanting to be defiant and “show whitey”, I can’t see why they’d want to-there’s not that much for young people to do unless they just want to drink, drug, have public sex amd make nuisances of themselves, there are plenty of places where they’d have a lot more to do, if they want to anything besides what they do here!
"I'm really happy of the attitude of most of the young people that were here. I'm really happy the way they were and how respectful they were. The majority seemed to understand why we were here and why we were keeping things in order." -Biloxi Police Chief John Miller
"It was a lot of cops and you couldn't make a u-turn, but we had a good time, and we even went to church today, so we're blessed and highly favored, and I want to let my pastor know I went to church," said Felisha Magee from Tylertown.
Police said they talked with event promoters about working together ahead of time to make the event run even better next year.
