You are the devil, anti-Christ, Beelzebub even.

John Pittman Hey strikes gold again up in Leflore County.  He reports on Thetaxpayerschannel.com:


Watch the video. Start at 66:45.


Thirty-eight minutes into today's City Council meeting, Acting Police Chief Johnny Langdon took to the podium to announce his retirement next week from the police department. After explaining briefly his background and the fact that he had served for 29 years on the force, Langdon let loose a blistering attack against Mayor Carolyn McAdams.

"The reason I have chosen to retire is, I simply can't take any more of the dictator leadership of Carolyn McAdams. Carolyn McAdams has no law enforcement experience, but she wants to make law enforcement decisions - decisions that are so close to being illegal that there is no gray area."

"I only have a high school education, but the difference is, it was a Greenwood Public School high school education. I graduated with excellence in English and English literature. I read, and I comprehend what I read. That's whether I'm reading the back of a BC powder, or a city policy.

"There is an evilness about this leadership like I've never seen. An evilness that seems to be orchestrated from another source. An evilness that took some person to go to a major university and major in Evilness and Wickedness 101."

"Carolyn McAdams will use you and throw you to the side like an empty beer can on a hot Saturday night. She's anti-police and is determined on dismantling the Greenwood Police Department. When it comes to the Greenwood Police Department, her philosophy is, Guilty until Proven Innocent."

"I'll leave you with these words: anti-christ, Beelzebub, deceiver, destroyer, liar, seven heads and ten horns on Satan, the Devil himself. That's the Carolyn McAdams I know!

"Have a good day."

Council member and State Senator David Jordan praised Langdon for his work in the Department, and said he had grave concerns about what Langdon has brought up. He said he is sorry to see Langdon leave. Jordan said if Langdon's accusations are accurate, then "we have a big problem here."

Langdon agreed with Jordan's assessment.

The Mayor then stated she agrees we have a big problem in the police department. She agreed with Jordan that the council and mayor must resolve this big problem.

When Jordan pointed out that the Chief is going out of office making an accusation against the Mayor, Mayor McAdams replied:

"Well, why wouldn't he? He's absolutely disgruntled about something, but seven heads, an anti-christ, a dictatorship, I am not. I help people all the time, I try to help that department. I have repeatedly asked for help over there, I get shot down all the time, I mean, it's just over, we are in trouble. I agree with Chief Langdon 100%."

"I trust people until I can't trust them any longer."

McAdams then informed the Council she had already asked Council President Stevenson to go into executive session to discuss the police department problem.

The Council did go into executive session at the end of the regular meeting, but the public and the press were excluded.

Carolyn McAdams is the best mayor of Greenwood in anyone's recent memory. This wing nut of an acting police chief came in with a chip on his shoulder and expected to have the chief's job handed to him. It should be apparent from the video that that would have been unwise, to say the least. The prevailing opinion is that someone wrote that screed for him and he just practiced it before letting loose in City Council. Shame on the Council president for not stopping this childish tirade as soon as it started. And on David Jordan for pandering to Langdon.

DeLay must be rolling in his grave.

Did the chief have a single SPECIFIC allegation?

Anonymous said...

Well, he didn't learn that name calling isn't mature or persuasive but specific examples would have been.
Can't enjoy seeing anyone embarrass themselves by emoting in public,

Does anyone think this has to do with anything other than McAdams race?

Satan, get out of 7:54. I call you out right now o creator of darkness.

Well sir, I tip my hat to you then.

Most important was Jordan's show-ending assessment. He says these allegations need to be looked into. I see a race charge looming. Mistreatment, discrimination, intimidation by satanic gaze, emotional distress, failure to recognize ribbons and stars.

Is the EEOC prepared to 'look into' claims that someone is Satan?

I seem to remember that when Jackson had a mayor, not too long ago, that liked to pretend that he was a law enforcement officer the commenters really, really, really hated it. As for the ex-acting Police Chief, you gotta admit that was pretty dang funny.

Kingfish said...

9:04: No bigotry will be tolerated here, GOT IT???

I will have you know that some of the finest dummies I know come from Greenwood Public Schools and they are good people.

Not the least of the absurd allegations here is the one about the "chief"s public school education. Mayor McAdams, had she chosen to interrupt his little tantrum, could have pointed out that she graduated from Greenwood High School when Mr. Langdon was about 5 years old. One of many facts he seems to struggle with.

Burke said...

Sen. Jordan: if the allegations are true, "we have a big problem here."

That she's the Anti-Christ? Yeah, I'd call that big.

The (Real) Antichrist said...

By all means, focus your attention on this Greenwood mayor.

This stems from McAdams nominating Rob Banks, a white 35-year-old constable from Carroll County to be Greenwood's next police chief, passing over Langdon and other more qualified applicants. Banks' nomination was derailed when he refused to resign his constable position or move to Greenwood. Even then, McAdams declined to promote from within the department.

Langdon specifically refused to apply for the post. If you don't apply you kinda don't get hired for a job. What it stems from is McAdams wanting the police department to be as accountable to public complaint & comment as any other dept. We have black managers/chiefs in other areas who respond positively to comments. For instance, nothing generates much more complaint than garbage pickup, yet when they are contacted by the mayor they correct problems or explain the situation. Same way with our well-run fire department. Ms. McAdams is a direct, honest, and active person who simply goes down her to-do list each day and checks off items which the public wants addressed. Evidently Langdon was unaccustomed to being asked to investigate situations which citizens had found troubling. One instance would be a campaign by the police to ticket people (people they knew who voted for the 'wrong' candidate) for no-insurance. Mayor was contacted, she let him know that the officers giving tickets needed to comply with the law also let a citizen find one of them in violation. He should have been glad she gave him a heads-up on the silly caper of some of his officers. And he should have advised officer that police aren't above the law. She wanted a car which had been abandoned on a residential street(and about which she'd had literally dozens of calls) towed but Langdon felt that wasn't up to her to give him such a message. You can be certain he had also received calls at his office but he had the option to just ignore them as he did much during his temporary reign. Reportedly, the other contenders for police chief are not within the department and there are very few at this point within the department capable or qualified to apply. Some officers are quite dedicated, but it does take some management expertise - otherwise you get a loon who can't properly control himself and ends up listing pejoratives from the Book of Revelations as a resignation speech.

" Even then, McAdams declined to promote from within the department."

And we can see why!

I'm just hoping Greenwood will go after Ponytail Lee (ex-fishing ticket writer) who is currently plaguing Meridian as Police Chief under our "Hope & Change" idiot Mayor Percy "Can I sell you some insurance?" Bland.

Anonymous said...

Nothing magic about 'promoting from within'. And being incompetent for years does not qualify one for a promotion. Maybe McAdams could apply at the Greenwood library.

Anonymous said...

What are the qualifications for being a police officer and police chief in MS?

Surely, those towns without a police academy send officers to a state academy.

Surely, a police chief has to have some advanced training in civilian life or in the military beyond just a high school education these days.

Aren't we moving towards professional law enforcement like the rest of the country?

My point is that her nomination of Banks displayed a poor comprehension of what it's going to take to make substantive improvements in the G'wood Police Department. Unfortunately, we do not live in a post-racial society, yet McAdams thought a white, 35-year-old county constable was the best choice for a department that is majority black in a city that is predominantly black.

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.
