Chokwe ducks the Flag question

And I don't mean the Confederate flag. Judge for yourself:



Now watch what he says at 2:30 in 2010.

The perfect leader for Jackustan.

“Some people say the ‘statute of limitations’ has run out,” said attorney Chokwe Lumumba. “We’re seeking reparations for abuse. We’re seeking reparations for abuse as a nation of people. Our statute of limitations has not run out. The statute of liberation is running right now at this very moment today.

“We’re seeking reparations for the abuses that came to our people. They don’t start with slavery. They start when they snatched the first Africans off the continent and invaded the continent of Africa. We’re seeking war reparations because we’re war victims,” said Mr. Lumumba.

I'm black and Chokwe radical ass makes me nervous.

Let me preface this by saying that I am an Air Force brat and couldn't be more proud of my father... that being said...

You were a captain in the Air Force and "fought" under that flag? Really? Harvey Johnson fly a bunch of sorties I'm not aware of?

Wasn't he a signal intel officer? *cough*GlorifiedListener*cough*

All of that being said, none of this matters... because you can't be more ashamed of Lumumba than you already should be.

I bet Harvey does too, Jonathan.

a man's service in the US military is to be commended and i'm thankful for Harvey's service. I don't live in Jackson and don't care who is the mayor, but I think he scored big on that punch and deservedly so!

Hey Chock, 600,000 Americans, mostly white Americans, died in the civil war to end slavery. At this point, lets call it even and have a life

I really hope Chokwe wins. And I think there's a really good chance. People get what they deserve in elections. See, for example, Kennef Stokes.

I think it would be hilarious to see the logical conclusion of Democrat rule.

Is that really all y'all have to choose from down there?

2:29.....850,000 died. Three times more than WWII. Yankees 500+. Confederacy 350+.

Chokwe inhabits his own nation and probably has his own personal flag. I'm sure it is real purty.

"people of Jackson look like us , but they ain't like us"..what kind of BS. If Chokwe and his "give us money because we are black and historically abused" colleagues gain traction, expect Jacktown to descend further into crime and poverty as whites AND blacks with meaningful incomes and property depart for greener pastures. Chokwe just wants a Mayor Nagen all chocolate city with access to your wallet.

I guess I should get my house ready for sale in Madison, if Chokwe wins...just imagine the flight out. Blacks and Whites! I might just hit pay dirt!

Simply, we tend to vote for people who (1) look like us, and (2) we perceive will do something *for* us.

Thanks KF. It's this type of reporting that allows voters accurate information to use in formulating an opinion of candidates.

Exactly 7:50 AM... the problem is that the informed minority is just that. The rest are still getting their "news" from the JFP. *facepalm*

Kingfish said...

You would be surprised at how many blacks read JJ. I'm proud of it actually as they are getting news about their leaders they are not getting in the link, advocate, or at WMPR. Even if I spin it, they can still watch the videos, read the docs, and decide for themselves.

Phil Leotardo said...

Tell you what 8:28 AM from the looks of it the long knives are out for Chokwe at the JFP. Even Bulbous Tommy Cabeza is uncomfortable. Ladd will do anything to get HJJ into the run-off. ANYTHING.

Anonymous said...

8:28 here. Yes Phil, it occurred to me immediately after posting that people getting their "news" from the other source were also probably hearing all about how awful Chokwe is. The problem is that they then present the logical choice to be Harvey. *weeps for Jackson*

Anonymous said...

I hope the Fondren Bugle continues the drumbeat for HJJ. That should make ole Harve very, very uncomfortable. Not good company to be with......

Da Fat Man said...

although I have recited the pledge of the flag, the problem I have is that the republic for which its stands does not apply the liberty and justice for all part. I'm not a chokwe supporter but I respect his opinion. just because I don't like the MS flag doesnt mean I hate MS. I'm not a fan of Mayor Johnson but that's not going to make me leave Jackson.

First of all none of the white people I have ever known has owned a slave of any race. So I, nor any other whites of today, owe anyone anything. The true civil rights leaders of yester-year would be ashamed of the black community today. Slaves were hardly "snatched" from the shores of the African nations. They were sold/traded by their own people; the triangle trade. This guy is a poor excuse for a leader and has an agenda to further an ideal of hate and division. No one needs or deserves that.

Jim Crow said...

I did not realize the correct pronunciation is "Shock-Way" until I heard him clarify that.

Shadowfax said...

"I respect the right of those who want to salute that flag. But, I reserve the right to form my own thoughts about that flag, including slavery". 6:00 news, 5/3/13 channel 12 WJTV.

Stokes relegated portraits and statues of Confederates to the basement. Shock-WE will relegate the US Flag to the shit-pile.

Imagine, if you will, an industrial prospect being delivered to City Hall by a representative of Entergy accompanied by someone from the Economic Development staff. After a round of handshakes and appropriate 'welcomes' and the handing out of brochures, a sharp pencil and small, lined pad, everyone takes a seat at Chokwe's shiny, oak conference table.

Chokwe's girl brings him a pitcher of water and several yellow notes indicating he has calls to return. Really important ones.

One of the prospect's team members has a curious question and breaks the ice: "We were told on the airplane coming in that the City of Jackson doesn't recognize the national flag. Surely that can't be true." The team members chuckle, assuming the idiocy of that suggestion will get the meeting rolling on a 'patriot-for the people' theme.

The mayor responds, "Well, that's partly true. I don't recognize the flag for a variety of reasons, but we're here today to discuss the reasons you should consider Jackson for your next ground-breaking."

Several of the team are already beginning to scribble on the city-logo note-pads provided by Chokwe's girl. The man from Entergy winces as if he needs a hemorrhoidal wipe and the economic development guy's head is mostly covered by his palm.

The Libertarian said...

Our favorite "civil liberties" writer, Dr. Thomas Head, PHD, MD, DDS, Esq. will be thrilled when Chokwe wins and all us honkies will be executed.

Anonymous said...

What is Tom Head's race. I never could nail it down. I would axe HIM, but he don't know.........

What is Tom Head's race.

He's from Uranus but I don't know which specific race from that planet. English is his [n]th language.

The Libertarian said...

Thomas Head is what we would comsider, at first glance, to be a white male. He is, however, according to him, a black, lesbian feminist bent on taking down the "white, male patriarchy" that dominiates world society and oppresses the indigenous peoples.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
