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.”

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

Keep voting for republicans and eventually MS can be last in everything. Or at least be proudly neck and neck with KY for the bottom spot.

The city of Jackson is Democrat controlled and has been for many years. They own/operate/maintain the water system. I’m not saying that matters, but the facts matter.

I read the comments, too, and got way too confused way too quickly. Apparently it all boils down to this (I think):

1) The failed structures in Jackson are state-controlled.
2) The state is run by white Republicans (most likely old, too)
3) Therefore the white Republicans are to blame for the water problems.

Dang it. Confused myself again, ma'am. lol

In Arkansas we say, "WTFIIWNM?"

Lew Wallace was right. And that was long before we legalized weed.

As per Wikipedia the 2020 census showed that the population of Jackson was 78.55 % Black. Kinda like Detroit. And Flint. The numbers don’t lie. Nor do the results.

“The whole problem is rooted in racism. White people moved out when Jackson started electing black leaders. “

So.... black leaders need white people living in the city to keep the water flowing?

Is white skin magic?

White people moved out when Jackson started electing black leaders.

So would I...when that happens, you know nothing good is going to happen.

That's what I did when Shreveport elected a big fat black mayor. Nepotism and cronyism followed of course.

Now, in what used to be the nicest neighborhoods people hear gunshots all night.

I still have friends there, black and white, and they ain't happy.

A picture of his cabinet…

Someone may want to audit where exactly the $400 million in federal funds that Jackson received to fix their water treatment facilities went.

Doesn't that picture answer your question?

In the past five years, the old white guys who did the maintenance at water and sewer plants, have finally said, “This is it. I’ve had enough”! And, they retired.

Most of the guys who knew how things worked and knew what maintenance needed to be performed on a regular basis, and made sure it was done were being put out to pasture. Or, they were given a young new “woke” and college-educated supervisor who thought they were better informed on how things should be done. So, maintenance hasn’t been done at these places. Expect more failures. Because the new diversity hires think someone else should actually have to do the work. They are just there to fill a quota and collect their check.

I never noticed they ever existed in Mexico and I lived down there for almost 10 years. But I’m a “privileged” white Mexican, so what do I know?

We call them “prietos”. And that mostly refers to dark skinned people in general.

I noticed the article focused on African Pagan rituals/santeria type religion and folk music and a potential future uprising. Good luck with that! They’ll be crushed and probably disappeared forever.

Los Angeles has a major water leak going on now. So urgent are all the water main breaks that they have not done the repairs necessary for decades.

Officials discovered a leak in the 36-mile Upper Feeder pipeline, which delivers water from the Colorado River to Southern California, earlier this year.

More than 4 million residents in Los Angeles County will be asked to suspend outdoor watering for 15 days next month while the Metropolitan Water District repairs a leak in a water pipeline.

The repairs will take place from Sept. 6 to 20

Wiki
Choked Antar Lumumba was elected mayor in June 2017 with 93% of the vote. The Nation commented that “Lumumba lit up the left press with his promise—delivered later that month in a speech at the People’s Summit in Chicago—to make Jackson ‘the most radical city on the planet.’”
So said the Socialist.
