Still trying to figure out what they police. They seem to exist for DUI/careless driving tickets only (only because they don't have radar, yet). They don't investigate anything above traffic accidents, if that. This is a government agency looking for a purpose. There is no reason that the local sheriffs can't handle road traffic and wildlife agencies handling the water. At best the PRV "Police" are glorified park rangers.

Actually, they are zoo keepers. The Chevron at the corner of Spillway and Northshore leads in alcohol sales statewide. The drunks, on road and on water, alone necessitate Rez Po. I took my kid to Lakeshore one Sunday before the "fee" and watched in horror as a boozed up guy nearly drowned, having to be rescued, trying to swim out to a pole between Lakeshore and Timberline Trailer Park. It's the Wild West with boozers and boaters. Deaths on boats and jetskis. A drunk Ex Marine landed his houseboat on the rocks years back, 5 people rescued on the 4th. God Almighty, son. Either you are a participant in this or you are naive of what goes on with booze and dope at the Rez. They had a darn riot at the park in Madison last year.

I was wondering the same thing years ago...and then in 2001 I joined the Rankin County Sheriff Reserves. As a 35 year resident of the Reservoir Area I saw first hand what they do. Yes they are a needed resource as what you see in a report is just a number and not a visual representation of what they do. They are an agency that overflows local law enforcement whether that be Ridgeland, Madison SO, Rankin SO etc. with emphasis and their resources focused on the Reservoir Waterways. Just recently a family with children had a boat capsize at 10PM....Who had a boat in the water and was ready to respond...yep Reservoir Police. My guess is it would have taken the MDWFP approximately 30 mins to an hour to respond. You cannot have enough officer presence in an area and personally I welcome these guys as they are first class officers doing a job that is under-appreciated.

Could you elaborate? When? Who? Size/extent/duration/description of the riot?

I live in Madison, and have never been into any of the parks (they're pretty to drive past, though). But even if I had some reason to use parks (my gym has everything), I would NOT, considering that their parking lots seem to be hangout spots for "teens" whose vehicles have criminally loud sound systems and 'harlequin' paintjobs.

I've observed these "teens" from a garden center across from one of those parks. In fact, one time a "teen" had its car thumping so loudly, I decided to finish choosing trees later - and left.

Do those parks do anything other than attract "teens" and "youths" from Canton and Jackson?

Anyway, thanks, 10:52 and 10:47, for explaining what's going on, on the rez. Reading about all the rules and regulations out there, over the last couple of years, I thought the area was over-controlled and over-policed. Now, I understand. This isn't Iowa, and the people using the Rez are NOT a bunch of quiet and responsible Danish Lutherans. People get the governance they deserve. And apparently the "people" of the Jackson area need and deserve abundant rules, surveillance, supervision, and disciplinary measures.

Apparently, the Rickies & Tawnyas using the Rez are about as bad as the hoodrats.

Why are people here SO out of control?

You people keep thinking it's the wild west and stay away. The longtime residents don't want you out here anyway. Keep throwing stones from behind your sad little computer screens and we'll keep enjoying our beautiful area out here.

Uhh, longtime resident. Been here probably longer than you and greatly appreciate RezPD and know we need them. The swishy snark may not realize that some counties here only have one RoadvDeputy on duty at night with a trustee answering the phone. We need more law enforcement, not less. And crime is growing (along with other things) at the Rez.

As a law officer myself I know first hand what the Rez P D does. Although it is not first hand public knowledge as in a large department the Rez P D answers the same calls for service as local and county departments domestic disputes shootings fights and so on. Also everything they do on land they also respond to on the water. There are constant calls up river more so than on land. If some of you would open your eyes and ears yall might actually see this. If you don't have a boat go rent one and run into a meth head up river shooting at you and see who responds to save you.

The Rez PO boat pulled me off a sandbar three years ago after a boating accident and got me to a waiting ambulance. Not needed? I disagree.

Pretty sure that the lack of Crime in the area is a direct result of folks know that Reservoir Patrol is always watching you... Also why driving that way after a drink is insanity... its commonly called the Gauntlet..

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
