Let's note that all 3 of these were in the southern half of the county. Not that the whole county isn't crazy, but those folks around Moselle take it to a whole different level.

Surprised it wasn’t Hinds

Surprised it wasn’t Hinds

When it comes to Crazy, Jones County has chunks of Hinds in its stool.

Hinds County shootings aren't accidental, they mean to shoot for the head..........

Especially when you’re driving down the interstate

There has been three different shootings in Monroe county since last weekend. It's getting out of hand.

ALMOST Unprecedented?

I’d be shocked if they hit one out of three in the head when on purpose though

I agree. Jones County runs by the beat of its own drum and aways has. While this is very sad for the folks involved (especially the child), it doesn't necessarily surprise me. I'm from the Hattiesburg area, and Jones County is the butt of more jokes than Petal is around here.

Don’t count out the Free State of Jones on anything….

God, I feel horrible for the 12yo girl. That’s just awful.
The other two just idiotic.

It was filmed mostly (maybe all?) in Louisiana but I know a handful of folks who were involved in the movie…

The best thing to do in Laurel on a Saturday night you ask? Load up the pick-up and drive to Hattiesburg.

"According to a Monday press release, Jones County Sheriff’s Department Sgt. Cody Pitts said the boy was shot in the head with a .22 caliber rifle by his 12-year-old sister while hunting rabbits. Deputies responded to the incident around 9:36 p.m. Saturday."

Now who in the hell hunts rabbits with a 22 rifle ?

Hard to do that with the way they hold their guns.

I hunted rabbits with a 22 back in the day. When you don't hunt behind dogs it's really easy to hunt with a 22. A rabbit won't run far when you kick it up, just watch where it goes, it won't move once it stops unless you get almost on top of it again.

Monroe county may be quiet, but it is not that innocent. At least it didn't used to be.
