Jackson, Mississippi, has experienced its deadliest year on record in 2021, as rising gun violence has driven its homicide rate to become one of the worst in the nation, data shows. Jackson, a Democratic city in a heavily Republican state, has already seen 150 homicides as of Dec. 21, shattering its previous record of 130 set last year, CNN reported. “We see lifelong friends kill each other, we’ve seen a son kill his mother and sister, have seen crimes that are based on social determinants and an inability of people to be engaged in institutions in which they thrive,” Jackson Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba told the outlet.

It is not "gun violence". It is knigarow violence. That is the fact of the matter. On the bright side, it is predominately knigarows that are being killed. Net gain to humanity. If my opinion offends you, ESAD. The time for social niceties is long past. This is war.

The whole area around Memphis is dangerous, including Jackson which used to be a nice suburban enclave.

A lot of smaller city's are overlooked when violent crime is discussed. Places like Antioch CA are quite dangerous but don't get the headlines they 'deserve' when if comes to murder and mayhem.

Jackson is a very high black population city. Guess why this is happening?

In this day and age of ubiquitous videos, it is a marvel that no one has captured on video the democrats mantra regarding "gun violence." Until I see guns marching in our streets and shooting innocent people either randomly or with singular purpose, then I will continue to believe in criminal violence as the cause for the skyrocketing murder rates. Same goes for the SUV that murdered citizens of Waukesha, according to the democrat media.

It won't be long before A&E gets a film crew to Jackson to roll tape for their long-running show "The First 48". A&E has based the entire show on Black on Black murders in Dem run cities.

I went to college at Mississippi State and spent my 5th year in Jackson. This was 20 years ago. Two of my female classmates were out driving in the middle of the day, took a wrong turn and ended up in a part of town that no God-fearing white person would ever venture to. They were spotted by a JPD officer, pulled over to find out their purpose there and then escorted out of the area by the officer for their own safety.
Even 20 years ago, there were areas that were war zones where no one with an appreciation for their lives would ever go. White flight had already emptied the city of anyone Caucasian and I felt safer on the outskirts and subsequently in a town 20 miles out of the city. Thankfully the school was in a downtown building, an easy in and easy out of the city.

The clown mayor's father was the mayor before him.
His father's actual name was Edwin Finley Taliaferro until he changed it to a fake African sounding name....and passed it on to his son.
Fake African....but real bloodshed and corruption.

Do blacks taking black lives matter? Asking for a friend. (And that seems to be a trend throughout the country.)

"Mayor Chokwe....... Antar....... Lumumba" What image does that moniker conjure in your brain? Probably what you would expect in a municipality that is 82% black.

Let me guess the excuses given for the highest murder rate in the country: Historical racism and the legacy of slavery in the Jackson area. Of course, the historical racism and legacy of slavery is making the Black population kill each other. Do they hate each their because of their history? Maybe the minorities in their city (White people) are such a bad influence on the Black population they have no choice but to kill each other if they act too white. Or maybe, the people of Jackson are just reverting to their African tribal roots and raping, looting, burning, and killing each other as they did back in their sainted African homeland as a part of tribal warfare before taking each other as slaves to sell to European, Arab, or Asian slave traders.

If you need a hint to the cause of the problem, the mayor's name, Chokwe Antar Lumumba, will guide you in the right direction.
These people all dance around the cause of the problem without ever saying it.

The city population is overwhelmingly and unapologetically bLACK, having chased the White people off years ago, so what's causing what the linked hand-wringing CNN article describes as the city's "deep-rooted social and political problems?" It can't possibly be the residents themselves. Maybe it's because the city is named after Andrew Jackson, a known White person.
