JACKSON, MS (Mississippi News Now) - Jackson City Councilman Kenneth Stokes' comments about violence against police officers from other cities has social media buzzing.

Here's what he said:

"What I suggest, we get the black leadership together, and as these jurisdictions come into Jackson, we throw rocks, bricks and bottles at them. That will send a message we don't want you in here."

A couple of local officials have already expressed their displeasure at Stokes' comments - especially the Madison County Sheriff.

Madison County Sheriff Randy Tucker took to Facebook to send his own message to Stokes.

Because having no police presence has worked so well in Baltimore.

More than hate speech, it’s inciting a riot!

The mayor probably supports Stokes. Read up on that guy, he is trouble.

I think you’re thinking of the dead Communist/African Supremacist ex-Mayor “Choke-Me” Lumumba. They have a new Mayor now, Tony Yerber.

I was very disappointed to learn that law enforcement firing back at Stokes, was verbally, and not with their guns.

Well, thanks for the update. Didn’t know the previous mayor had croaked, but I’ll go rise a belated drink to his demise.

The present Mayor may not be much more of a prize, either. He was praised by PMSNBC. He did defeat Choke-Me Junior, when papa bought it. Junior expected to inherit the Tribal Chieftain position.

Inciting a riot is punishable by jail-time.
