Title: City councilman Kenneth Stokes has something to say to police

A city councilman fed up with police from other counties racing after small-time crooks in his Jackson, Mississippi, neighborhood has called for residents to throw things at officers in pursuit.

"Let's get rocks; let's get bricks, and let's get bottles, and we'll start throwing them, and then they won't come in here anymore."

"When you have these police officers coming from other jurisdictions and they will not respect human life, then I said we should use rocks, bricks or bottles to try to get the message over: stop endangering our children."

His statements clearly  endanger law enforcement officers. (http://www.cnn.com/2016/01/02/us/mississippi-throw-rocks-police-comment/)  We'll see if his remarks have consequences.

Surrounding counties should immediately stop cooperating with all law enforcement from that county.

Stokes believes making Jackson a refuge to which criminals can flee will make Jackson safer for its children (and other citizens)? I'm not "sophisticated" enough to understand that.

This turd has a long history of saying outrageous crap.

And yet he keeps getting reelected.

Folks wonder why I'm pessimistic. . .

When crooks and rapists and murderers come racing in to my county can we citizens throw rocks and bottles and lead at them just so they know what we think of them? It's all about making a statement right?

I was about to suggest that Jackson PD should pull out of Stokes' district, Ward 3, but I see (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackson,_Mississippi) that while Stokes probably represents his district rather well, he probably could represent most parts of Jackson about as well. Jackson may well be on its way to becoming the Detroit of MS, if not of the South.

As the saying goes:

High five for HL Mencken!

I was riding through Mississippi a few years ago, and stopped at a roadhouse on the edge of Jackson. The morning shift lot lizard eyed me like a hungry dog as I walked in. At the counter, customers washed down their breakfast with beer from dirty glasses. Cigarette smoke filled the room.

The waitress took a drag on a Kool, and then took my order- chicken fried steak and pepper gravy, eggs, grits and coffee.

She asked me how I take my coffee. I said, "I like my coffee the way I like my women".

"Black?" she asked. A couple of other customers looked over at us.

"No, ma'am. Bitter and cold, with a cigarette butt stuck in it."

She laughed, a wheezy kind of laugh that ended with a cough.

She kept that coffee cup full and offered me one to go. I rode off with a full belly, a good cigar clamped between my teeth, and a smile.

I don't think you're pessimistic @ all.   Its the reality we're living in.

2 examples come to mind.  Alan Grayson, a foul mouth progressive, lost his seat in 2010.  The liberal republicans, who hate conservatives more than anything, re-districted Allen West & potty mouth won again in 2012.  Same with non-funny guy Al Franken, who won over Norm Coleman, possibly with the help of dead people, double votes & other questionable vote counts in '09.  & because he had no record of doing anything, he was re-elected in '14. 

Accomplishments for these 2?
- Rubber-stamping everything Obama.
- Getting rich: Grayson's net worth is $17 million Al Franken's net worth is $8 million.

Stuart Smalley is an all-around loser- couldn't make scratch as a writer, TV performer, Err America mouthpiece, or so-called comedian.

The only way he made that money was as a crooked back-bencher in the Senate.
