Redneck Eruption (Jackson, Vicksburg, Pearl: house, tenants, dangerous)

[viverlibre]

A lot to unpack here. My biggest takeaway, white shirt took a 2x4 to the head, several whacks to his hand and multiple blows with a shovel. He's one fellow you don't want to scrap with.

Jackson Jambalaya: Redneck Eruption!

This reportedly took place in Satarita.

Yep! That one's got it all: the action, the dialogue - the eye candy (a certain aspect of White Tee Dude - which, if you study a still shot, as Bitsi and I have done, is almost too good to be true) - as one commenter noted - all adds up to Hollywood Quality.

I'm having flashbacks to the tenants I, and my besties, managed to cleanse from buildings we'd buy. Screechin' Mawmaw sounds exactly like one of them. "Daddy", Camo Dude, and Screechin' Mawmaw, all know how to work the situation. They're PRACTICED at it. They know how to gain legal advantage.

Knowing this is being filmed, Mawmaw's FEIGNED concern for the man being beaten by her menfolk, is most telling. She's an old hand at this.

And Mawmaw knows how to double-the-drama, by yelling so loudly, and so continuously, that nobody can form a thought. She's helping to goad their victim into behaving foolishly.

I'd call them 'White Trash', though, and not 'Rednecks'. Rednecks are a better class of people.

Heard em called "Tractor Caps" by a friend. He's referring to their habit of wearing "Cat" or "John Deere" caps. I asked him he'd ever been to a certain place.
"No", he said. "Just a bunch of Tractor Caps hanging around."


I'd never heard of Satartia, MS, so I looked it up. Near Yazoo City. Population 41, but it peaked out in 1910 with 187 - or at least that's when Wikipedia says it peaked out.

Strange people there. Man with Gun saw White Tee wasn't going to be intimidated by a gun so he went and got himself a shovel. That's a first.


But Satartia does have history. I copied this from Wikipedia:

Satartia is a Choctaw word meaning "pumpkin place",[6] likely due to the small gourds that grow in the area. In the early 1800s, Satartia was a busy shipping point from which cotton was transported by steamboat to New Orleans along the Yazoo River.[5]
During the Civil War, General Grant sailed a gunboat from Vicksburg and captured the village; the Wilson House on Plum Street was used as his headquarters during the occupation.[5] The war also produced the "Satartia Rifles", a well-regarded Confederate regiment and recruitment group.[7]
Late on February 22, 2020, a 24-inch pressurized pipeline owned by Denbury Resources and carrying liquid carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide ruptured less than half a mile from Satartia. More than 300 people were evacuated and 46 hospitalized with carbon dioxide poisoning

So, somehow Pumpkin Place produced enough Civil War soldiers to have a unit with a name. Not real sure what a "recruitment group" might be. Doesn't sound real dangerous.


The part about shipping cotton down stream is interesting to me. Back in 1860, many of the rivers in Mississippi were used that way. The Pearl River became very important after Adm David Farragut closed the Mississippi by taking New Orleans. That's the same Farragut who once shouted "Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead" while taking Mobile Bay in '64.


Biggest mystery I have found regarding Satartia is where they ever found 300 people to evacuate when the above mentioned pipeline ruptured. Then it occurred to me that carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide, when used in combination, might result in permanent brain damage of some sort. I'm just saying that because none of the people in the video seemed to be all swole up with a whole bunch of common sense. Someone might want to check on that.
