One of the things Bernie Sanders has been saying is that change cannot come unless millions and millions of citizens stand up and demand change. Isn't this true in Tunica County also?
Why did we keep Jerry Gentry as our Superintendent of Education year after year? He didn't make our schools excellent.
Why did we elect Steve Chandler? He didn't have the experience. Look what happened to our schools under his leadership. Why wasn't all of Tunica County standing up to make him step down? Why did you leave this job to a small number number of our citizens?
Why did we re-elect Hamp as our Sheriff when there are so many lawsuits against his department. Do you really think he's done an excellent job? Do you think it is okay for Michael Thompson to be entrapped by your Sheriff and treated like a common criminal over a traffic ticket? Or would you only be upset if this happened to you?
Why do we keep electing Sharon Granberry? Wasn't the voter roll disaster in our last primary the last straw for you?
And our Election Commission. Why can't they keep our voter rolls updated and in good condition? Are you going to replace them in our next election?
And why would anyone vote for any Supervisor who was responsible for building all of these facilities that we are struggling to pay for? Our debt service is killing us.
And what about all of these manufacturing plants. How are they contributing to our General Fund?
We did Cedric Burnett get elected to the MS House? Do you believe he lives here? Did you think his voting record and his behavior while sitting at the Board of Supervisors' table served you well?
Do you think replacing Michael Thompson with Adrian McKay was a good move for our County? As we have learned, McKay somehow had the notion he didn't have to take orders from Thompson. Those of you who are complaining about the 2014 audit seem to want to put this blame at the feet of Thompson too. But isn't this the responsibility of Comptroller McKay? And now you think this same former Comptroller needs to hire his own staff? Does he think the Comptroller should takes orders from him?
So Tunica, when are you going to stand-up and demand the changes we need?
