Again yesterday while last night more people are beating on doors in those neighborhoods at 3:30 to 4:30 am.
Gonna be tragic when someone gets hurt or dies.

SPD pulling over people on S Montgomery

Even if it’s “kids having fun” it’s still stupid and will be tragic.
But it’s not. They are looking for people who aren’t home so they can steal.
Lot of theft been happening in those neighborhoods the last few years.
Nothing ever “major” but they gonna FA&FO.
Oh. Didn’t realize that. Yeah, if it’s neverdowells, they’ll meet mortality face-to-face and then given the same posthumous treatment as that subway nutcase.
I had two separate tours in Spruill's in the 80s/90s. Many years later had a nephew stay there, they hadn't spent one dollar on maintenance. I think the rent was still the same.
lot's of new construction further down, is that where the criminals are working?
Well I can assure you JPD ain't pulling over anybody for anything. Had to drive into Jackson about an hour ago and I've never seen anything like it. No speed limit and no law.
In 2021, there were almost 43,000 deaths in the U.S. as a result of motor vehicle crashes according to the Dept. of Transportation. That year, the CDC estimates that there were approximately 26,000 homicides in the U.S.
Even if every single one of those homicides was the result of a break in - and obviously they weren't - a car crash is still more likely to be deadly than a break in (especially on South Montgomery give how narrow it is).
Of course, neither scenario is good. You'd have to ask SPD why they can't do both - try to make traffic on S. Montgomery safer AND have someone patrol the neighborhood at night. Beyond the obvious fact that, legally, the police aren't obligated to protect private property.
But if, for some reason, SPD has to pick one or the other, it seems like focusing on traffic is the right course of action.

When driveing in Jackson, make sure you do the "Jackson Five". Count to 5 after light turns green. Always some idiot zooming through the red light.
The speed is limited by the number and size of the potholes.
You mean just knocking on a door and running off? ****, that ain’t nothing new. We even had a colorful name for it, back in the 80’s.
Would be tragic if someone tried to invade my home. I have 3 dogs that most consider the top of the canine food chain. And if they happened to get past the dogs, I have a 12 ga. 14" shotgun next to my bed. Either way, it won't end well for them.
Find out how many deaths have happened between hwy 12 and Poor house rd on s Montgomery in Starkville.
You kooks will do anything to defend a criminal.
For the record, I’m ok with pulling people over for speeding but not while you sit on your hands at night.

No it’s not new. And it could just be innocent kids. But when a home owner opens a door scared and blasts a “kid” standing there in a hoodie, it’s gonna be ugly.

I always see people complaining on Nextdoor about this and ding Dong ditching saying someone is going to get shot. If the kids are doing either of these correctly, they will be halfway down the street by the time the homeowner opens the front door, so why would anyone be shot?
Absolutely… hopefully they know what they are doing. Gotta send the fast kid to the door and the fat kid has to get a head start.
I would hope someone does not go to the door and start shooting before you figure out the situation. Someone is in your house, that’s a totally different story.
Lol. I was actually shocked at a thread the other day about DDD on Nextdoor. It was done on a ring camera and the original poster complained about our school systems not teaching kids well enough to know to avoid the Ring Camera doorbells. The whole thread stayed light hearted, from, who does it on plain daylight, in the rain to these spoiled kids getting into a golf cart, it’s no fun unless you risk scars from diving into bushes.
Bc they are morons. And not just “ding donging”.

If someone rings your bell multiple times at 330 am and your kids are home, it’s fair to go to the door armed.
If you open the door armed and you see a hooded person, what happens to him next is his/her fault. Not yours or mine.
Since I got my Ring doorbell. I can accurately shoot them through the door every time**
I would think all the rich people on S. Montgomery would have a doorbell camera and the perps would be easily identified.
Really? Which part?
In Mississippi if you fear for your life, you can protect yourself .
See my second to last post with attachment. You think the Starkville PD is conducting a healthy investigation with all the “speeding” on S Montgomery?
I have no argument with your first sentence. You absolutely have that right.
But why would you open the door? If it’s punks trying to figure out if someone is home, you should be able turn on some lights/make enough noise for them to get the message. If it’s kids doing ding dong ditch, they’re long gone (if they’re doing it right). There’s literally no reason to actually open the door.
Also, I hope you know this but it’s generally not illegal for someone to knock on a door or ring a doorbell, even at 3:30 in the morning. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone but it’s not illegal.
Nor is it illegal to wear a hoodie, even at 3:30 in the morning.
It’s also not illegal to knock on a door/ring a doorbell while wearing a hoodie, even at 3:30 in the morning.
But your best course of option is to just not open your door in the middle of the night.

I’ll see what I can find. I know of one for sure. Guy I know’s son was killed pulling out onto South Montgomery from TimberCove.
And no one is defending criminals, you lunatic. But also, see my post above. You might not like some of that behavior (and to be clear, I wouldn’t either) but none of it as you describe is criminal.
It’s also not illegal to defend yourself if you feel threatened.
Good idea?
if it’s my house? I want them scared shitless to never come back so when I’m gone I don’t have to worry about worthless pieces of
17ing with my stuff.What if I go to a door in an all black neighborhood at 330 am and knock on it wearing an all white hood?
Id never do such bc I don’t want to die. And if I died doing such it would be my fault.
would you defend me?
how about you @57stratdawg
I recommend not opening the door. If they mean you harm, keep the door shut and locked. If they are being stupid kids, keep the door shut and locked.
It’s not my house, but I wouldn’t blame someone for opening the door. You should be able to do so without ridicule in your own GD home.
You’re and idiot if you open the door at 330 in the morning. I don’t care if you’re legally in the right. Doubling down on stupid doesn’t help. If they are trying to rob you, opening the door helps them. So you have a gun, they might to. Would you rather them shoot at you through and open or closed door? I’m not defending the bell ringers.
Yeah, I was responding to the kid section not some dude hanging on the front porch at 3:30. Going armed is absolutely justified.
So let’s just allow them to keep staking the neighborhoods so they can get the home owners at the right time when they are gone?
this thread was started bc the police aren’t doing their jobs.
if they won’t maybe the homeowners will.
What kind of white hood we talking about? If it’s a run of the mill hoodie that happens to be white, it would not be your fault. Because, again, wearing a hoodie and knocking on a door in the middle of the night - while not at all advisable - is not against the law (as far as I know because I’m not a lawyer).
If it’s the kind of white hood that covers someone’s entire head and has a matching all-white robe, well that’s a different story and I absolutely do not give a **** about the kind of people who would wear that.
I’m not sure why you or anyone else would make this more complicated than it needs to be. Just don’t open the door in the middle of the night. I don’t generally open my door to strangers in broad daylight. I’m sure as hell not going to do it at 3:30 am.
So I’d love for you to do the stats on the last 40 years on how many people have died at the hands of a man wearing a full white hood vs a man wearing a hoodie.
One is way more dangerous in todays times.
So do statistics and history matter to you?
hate is hate right?
Just don’t open the door if an all white wardrobed loser comes to it. Pretty simple right?
