I don't know about crazy. But cops better be slinging their protective shields in Jackson, MS. "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. Now, the governor and a county sheriff are threatening to have prosecutors investigate him over the suggestion. Councilman Kenneth Stokes has a reputation of saying what he thinks and stirring controversy. "Let's get rocks; let's get bricks, and let's get bottles,"Stokes told CNN affiliate WJTV. "And we'll start throwing them, and then they won't come in here anymore." It was no one-off quip. Stokes repeated the suggestion to other local news outlets. "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,"
If it was, he would be demanding corporations pay high prices for the rocks to supply his people with their ammunition, or be boycotted for being racist.
He's a total looney toon. A few years ago, he was pissed at emt personnel who had refused to enter a dangerous situation and render aid until the police had arrived for protection. Of course, Jackson has no popo of their own (which is probably why lowlife criminals go their in the first place) so it took 23 minutes.
You throw bricks at the police, shoot at the ambulance, beat up the mailman that brings you your free shit and then wonder why businesses won't locate in your neighborhood and emergency services don't want to enter. Insane indeed!
