Corinth monitors Mitchell: Biggersville not closing its ‘junk’ vehicles Staff photo by Zack Steen

A crowded meeting of Biggersville supporters listen as board members discuss the possible closing of Biggersville schools.

BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

Biggersville schools are not closing. Questions were answered by Alcorn School District board members on Monday night as Biggersville supporters crowded into the meeting. “The board is not in the mood at this point (to close Biggersville school),” said Superintendent Larry B. Mitchell. “It is an issue I have per-

sonally looked into, but the board is not ready.” Board member Daniel Cooper thanked Biggersville students, teachers and parents for attending the meeting. He said, “I appreciate everyone coming ... you are showing the same love I have for this school.” The District 3 representative added, “As long as I have a voice (and) as long as I’m on this board, there will always be

at least one vote for Biggersville to stay open.” Cooper said questions of possible closure had caused concern at the school. “These rumors have been aﬀecting our children and our teachers,” he said. “The kids are scared. “Sometimes you can’t put a price on what you’re doing Please see BIGGERSVILLE | 2A

Corinth is taking a close look at “junk” vehicles in its current cleanup efforts. Per the city code, a residence is allowed to have one vehicle on the property that is being worked on and not in operable condition. “It’s really a problem all over town,” said Code Enforcement Officer Kim Ratliff, “but probably the greater centralization

would be in South Corinth, a few areas in West Corinth and in the Mathis Subdivision.” With South Corinth getting some major improvements on Meigg Street in the area of the national cemetery and park, “We want to add to the appeal of South Corinth by getting rid of some vehicles that should not be on display,” he said. “In addition to our regular eﬀorts Please see JUNK | 6A

Avectus Healthcare Solutions’ expansions in recent years have more than doubled the company’s workforce from 150 to 334, and it moved into the renovated industrial building in November. “It is great to have a service industry like Avectus that provides these high-quality jobs in Corinth,” Gov.

District 2 board member Ann Little said the board wanted to put peopleâ€™s minds at ease by addressing the possible closure. â€œThere are many positive attributes of small schools,â€? she said. â€œSmaller schools have been shown to cost more to operate than larger schools on a per student level, but at a per graduate level smaller schools have more success.â€? Board president Randy Wilbanks said he agreed with both Little and Cooper. Board members Ricky Fields and Mary Coleman did not oďŹ€er an opinion.

Corinth man wins division bass tourney

Today in History

For the Daily Corinthian

IUKA — Charles Watts of Corinth brought a five-bass limit weighing 20 pounds, 6 ounces to the scale Saturday to win the T-H Marine FLW Bass Fishing League (BFL) Mississippi Division tournament presented by Mud Hole Custom Tackle on Pickwick Lake. Watts pocketed $5,181 for his efforts. Watts said he threw a jig along bluff walls near the takeoff ramp to get his day started. He was able to put three keepers in the boat before moving to locations between Indian Creek and Yellow Creek. “I had four areas I liked – two humps and two flats,” said Watts, who earned his first career-victory in FLW competition. “I sat in 25 feet of water and fished in anywhere from 15 to 18 feet. I would focus on one area for about 45 minutes and then move on. They ate well in each when we’d first pull up then they’d die off.” Watts said he used one lure to catch his fish – a Strike King 6XD Crankbait in Sexy Blue Back Herring and Sexy Shad colors. He said he caught approximately 15 keepers throughout the tournament. “I think the fish were relating to the drops and rock on the bottom – they’ll stack on them,” said Watts. “It’s a basic earlysummer pattern when they first get off the spawning beds.” The top 10 boaters finished the tournament in:

Today’s Highlight in History On May 10, 1869, a golden spike was driven in Promontory, Utah, marking the completion of the first transcontinental railroad in the United States.

On this date In 1775, Ethan Allen and his Green Mountain Boys, along with Col. Benedict Arnold, captured the British-held fortress at Ticonderoga, New York. In 1863, during the Civil War, Confederate Lt. Gen. Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson died of pneumonia, a complication resulting from being hit by friendly fire eight days earlier during the Battle of Chancellorsville in Virginia. In 1865, Confederate President Jefferson Davis was captured by Union forces in Irwinville, Georgia. In 1924, J. Edgar Hoover was named acting director of the Bureau of Investigation (later known as the Federal Bureau of Investigation, or FBI). In 1933, the Nazis staged massive public book burnings in Germany. In 1940, during World War II, German forces began invading the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Belgium and France. The same day, British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain resigned, and Winston Churchill formed a new government. In 1941, Adolf Hitler’s deputy, Rudolf Hess, parachuted into Scotland on what he claimed was a peace mission. Check out the classifieds daily

Corinth, Miss.

The pre-existing condition lie If you’ve only followed coverage of the Republican health care bill loosely in the media, you might believe that House Republicans, after much effort, passed legislation to deny people with preRich existing conditions health inLowry surance. The issue of pre-existing National conditions has dominated the Review debate over the GOP health care bill out of all proportion to the relatively modest provision in the legislation, which is being distorted -- often willfully, sometimes ignorantly -- into a threat to all that is good and true in America. The perversity of it all is that the legislation is properly understood as doing more to preserve the Obamacare regulation on pre-existing conditions than to undermine it. The legislation maintains a federal baseline of protection in such cases, and says only that states can apply for a waiver from it, provided that they abide by certain conditions meant to ensure that no one is left out in the cold. Since these provisions only involve the individual insurance market, a small slice of the overall insurance picture (about 18 million are on the individual market), and merely make possible state waivers, they are inherently limited. You’re not affected if you get insurance through your employer (155 million people), or through Medicaid or Medicare. You’re not affected if you live in a state that doesn’t request the waiver, a category that will certainly include every blue state and most red states, too. Even if you buy insurance on the individual market and live in a state that gets a waiver, you’re not affected if you’ve maintained insurance coverage continuously and not had a gap in coverage longer than 63 days. By this point, we’re talking about a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of the population. If you do have a pre-existing condition in a waiver state and haven’t had continuous coverage, you can be charged more by your insurer only the first year. The state will have access to $8 billion in federal funds explicitly to ease the cost of your insurance, and the state must further have a high-risk pool or similar program to mitigate insurance costs for the sick. Clearly, if Republicans set out to recklessly endanger the well-being of people with preexisting conditions, they didn’t do a very good job of it. The purpose of these provisions isn’t to punish people who are sick, but to create an incentive for people to buy insurance while they are healthy. (The Obamacare exchanges are failing because the law’s tangle of regulations drove up costs and made insurance economically unappealing to the young and healthy.) It takes all of five minutes to understand the basic architecture of the House bill on pre-existing conditions, yet it has been subject to wildly ill-informed and deceptive attacks. Nancy Pelosi called the provisions on pre-existing conditions “deadly.” Rep. Frank Pallone of New Jersey said the bill would hurt 129 million people with pre-existing conditions, starting from an exaggerated figure and then assuming every single one of them would be harmed by the House bill. Such is the hysteria around this issue that using the phrase “pre-existing condition” has become a license for making any charge whatsoever. Feminists have spread word that the bill treats rape as a pre-existing condition, a stupid lie that has been treated seriously in cable TV debate. As The Washington Post Fact Checker noted, not only does the bill not classify rape or sexual assault as a pre-existing condition, almost all states have their own protections for victims of domestic violence and sexual abuse. There are certainly legitimate criticisms to be made of the House bill, and ample room for the Senate to improve it, especially by boosting its coverage numbers. But it is not an act of heedless cruelty against the sick. As for its critics, their reflex to demagogic dishonesty isn’t a pre-existing condition, just an ingrained habit.

Prayer for today Heavenly Father, I would be thankful for the blessings I am inclined to forget. Give me a heart of gratitude, and forbid that I should hold my friends for material gain or selfish ends. May I through the truthfulness of my lips, and the honor of my acts, be a necessary friend. Amen.

A verse to share A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies. —Proverbs 31:10

Heyday of the nursery rhyme is over OXFORD — Generations grew up with the “sticks and stones” rhyme. You know, the one that ends, “but words can never hurt me.” Increasingly, it’s fallen out of fashion. Learned people, scholars at prestigious universities are increasingly arguing that speech can and should be considered harmful and destructive, and that there are certain viewpoints it should be illegal to express. Of course, this was not the thinking when the First Amendment was drafted. The thinking about freedom of expression back then was that idea-sharing was essential to societal advancement. Good ideas would take root. Wackadoo ideas would wither. Sometimes things have worked that way; sometimes they haven’t. Here’s what’s cool: It may make our heads to think about it, but almost all nursery rhymes date to times and places where there was no such thing as freedom of speech. Seriously, rhymes were “code,” often used mocking royalty or to describe the lot of the everyday man. “Mistress Mary, quite contrary” dates to the rule of Bloody Mary, not the cocktail but the queen of England starting in 1518. Her social policy included burning Protestants at the stake as heretics. The “silver bells”

and “cockle shells” were street names for torture devices, kind of like we call the Charlie electric chair Mitchell “Old Sparky” today. Columnist “ R i n g around the rosy” mocked those who suﬀered from the skin sores that were the first symptom of the almost always fatal plague. “We all fall down.” “Goosey, goosey gander” is said to reference to a practice of wealthy families hiding priests who, if found, would be executed along with the family hiding them. That was when Protestants were in charge and Catholics were on the run. Back in the day, common people had absolutely no free speech rights, but could get their feelings known through cute, memorable rhymes — so that’s what they did. A few years ago, the magazine Psychology Today offered a modification: “Sticks and stones may break my bones … and words will cut me deeply.” That, however, was in the context of oneon-one verbal abuse. It was about bullying, which can and does cause personal damage. The larger context is protesting against expression of viewpoints based on serious

and well-founded disagreement with those viewpoints. These protests take the form of arguments to limit what has been free speech, based largely on an expansion of “cutting deeply.” In other words, if verbal abuse of an individual can be harmful to an individual, does it not follow that telling groups what they don’t want to hear would also be harmful? Is there such thing as group bullying? A cryptic response to the topic is, “If you don’t like what you think a person is going to say, don’t listen.” But that doesn’t address the scholars’ point that the harm of some ideas is to society as a whole; that’s it’s not about individual ears, individual sensibilities. Another response, quite accurate, is that the left raised high the banner of free speech back in the 1960s and 1970s when fervor against Vietnam and for civil rights was being squelched, so it’s more than a little hypocritical for the left to demand limits on conservative expression today. It’s not as easy a topic as it first appears. Most journalists, quite naturally, are steadfastly against any controls on public expression. Our belief is that folks ought to put on their bigpeople britches; that the First Amendment is at the very core of American ex-

ceptionalism. Rowdy, issuecentered debate is healthy debate. But around the world today the vast majority of people live where government decides what is good for people to hear or know and what is harmful and destructive to national interests. Some of these are totalitarian regimes, as England once was, but many others are modern, developed, progressive nations, too. What it comes down to is this: The lesson of at least 600 years of history is that the people will speak whether or not they have oﬃcial permission. The bold will risk all — Nelson Mandela, Ghandi and Patrick Henry come immediately to mind — but the masses will have a voice, too. They may speak in code, as they did in the 1500s and 1600s, but they will be heard and cannot be stifled. If the argument takes root that some ideas and expressions are so harmful that government should make them illegal, we might go back to nursery rhymes. “Lefties, lefties all around do not wish to hear a sound. Quietly, quietly righties speak To show that they are truly meek.” Charlie Mitchell is a Mississippi journalist. Write to him at cmitchell43@yahoo. com.

Nixon and Trump, then and now For two years, this writer has been consumed by two subjects. First, the presidency of Richard Nixon, in whose White House I served from its first day to its last, covered in my new book, “Nixon’s White House Wars: The Battles That Made and Broke a President and Divided America Forever.” The second has been the astonishing campaign of Donald Trump and his first 100-plus days as president. In many ways, the two men could not have been more diﬀerent. Trump is a showman, a performer, a real estate deal-maker, born to wealth, who revels in the material blessings his success has brought. Nixon, born to poverty, was studious, reserved, steeped in history, consumed with politics and policy, and among the most prepared men ever to assume the presidency. Yet the “mess” Trump inherited bears striking similarities to Nixon’s world in 1969. Both took oﬃce in a nation deeply divided. Nixon was elected in a year marked by the assas-

sinations of Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert Kennedy, race riots in 100 cities, Patrick and street Buchanan battles between cops Columnist and radicals at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago. Both men had their elections challenged by the toxic charge that they colluded with foreign powers to influence the outcome. Nixon’s aides were accused of conspiring with Saigon to torpedo Lyndon Johnson’s Paris peace talks. Trump aides were charged with collusion with Vladimir Putin’s Russia to disseminate stolen emails of the Democratic National Committee. The U.S. establishment, no stranger to the big lie, could not and cannot accept that the nation preferred these outsiders. Nixon took oﬃce with 525,000 troops tied down in Vietnam. Trump inherited Afghanistan, the longest war in U.S. history, and wars in Iraq, Syria, Libya

and Yemen. Nixon and Trump both committed to remake the Supreme Court. Having pledged to select a Southerner, Nixon saw two of them, Judges Clement Haynsworth and Harrold Carswell, savaged by the Senate. In Trump’s first major victory on Capitol Hill, the House voted narrowly to “repeal and replace” Obamacare. Only with a tiebreaking vote by Agnew in August 1969 did Nixon win his first big victory -- Senate approval of a strategic missile defense. Yet though Trump and Nixon ran up similar Electoral College victories, Nixon at the end of 1969 was at 68 percent approval and only 19 percent disapproval. Trump, a third of the way through his first year, is underwater in Gallup. Nixon’s achievements in his first term were extraordinary. He went to Beijing and opened up Mao Zedong’s China to the world, negotiated with Moscow the greatest arms limitation agreement since the Washington Naval Treaty of 1922,

and withdrew all U.S. forces from South Vietnam. He desegregated the South, ended the draft, gave the vote to all 18-year-olds, indexed Social Security against inflation, created the Environmental Protection Agency and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, named four justices to the Supreme Court, presided over six moon landings, declared a “war on cancer,” proposed a guaranteed annual income, created revenue sharing with the states, took America oﬀ the gold standard, and let the dollar float. But in June 1972, a bungled bugging at the DNC, which Nixon briefly sought to contain and then discussed as the White House tapes were rolling, gave his enemies the sword they needed to run him through. The same deep state enemies await a similar opening to do to Trump what they did to Nixon. Rely upon it. Patrick J. Buchanan is the author of a new book, “Nixon’s White House Wars: The Battles That Made and Broke a President and Divided America Forever.”

Snoop Dogg wants to create Sumatran tiger dies in zoo music festival in Magnolia Associated Press

Associated Press

MAGNOLIA — Rapper Snoop Dogg says he wants to create a music festival in his father’s hometown so he can perform in Mississippi. “We always stop in New Orleans but we never book a show here. We might as well do it ourselves because my booking agent just won’t do it,” he said during a weekend stop in Magnolia, a south Mississippi city of about 2,400 near the Louisiana state line. The rapper born Calvin Broadus stopped in Magnolia on his way to the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, where he performed Saturday, to discuss his plans for “Snoop Fest” with the mayor, the McComb Enterprise-Journal reported Monday. “We want to try to get it done this year, but if not, we will definitely do it next year,” Mayor Anthony Witherspoon said. He said Magnolia is a great venue because it’s 90 minutes from Jackson, Hattiesburg, Baton Rouge and New Orleans. It’s about 17 miles north of the Louisiana state line

and just a few more from Britney Spears’ hometown of Kentwood, Louisiana. Snoop Dogg said the festival’s first day would feature blues, gospel and country acts for the “aunts, grandmas and uncles,” with hip-hop and rhythm and blues on the second day. He would close the festival. “I think the first should have what the heritage of Mississippi is about and then the second day should be about the generation that took it to another level,” he said. Snoop said he wants to bring back Mississippi natives Brandy and Ray J Norwood of McComb, David Banner of Jackson, Souljia Boy of Batesville and newcomer La’Porsha

Renae, also of McComb, and to give a shot to some performers who are still local. “We can give the top five hottest artists a chance to open up,” he said. The rapper said he wants to do something that reaches out to everyone. He said he comes to Mississippi three or four times a year, but only his family sees him. “I want to do something so that everyone will get to see me,” he said. “If I wanted to do a show and leave, I could’ve done that. I wanted to do something to make a mark here. I just wanted to make an impact on the people here because I know how much I mean to them.”

Across the Region Oxford Fox News anchor opens up on sexuality OXFORD — Longtime Fox News anchor Shepard Smith has opened up about his sexuality and the impact it has had on his career. Smith mentioned in a recent speech at the University of Mississippi that he had never stood in front of a group of people to talk about being gay, but added that he has “nothing to hide.” Smith says he began living his “truth” within the past decade. He says he never “outed” himself because he didn’t think he was “in.” Smith told students he spent many years constantly working, in part because he didn’t want to deal with his sexuality. Now, Smith says he doesn’t think about his sexuality much. He says he goes to work, covers the news and goes “home to the man I’m in love with.”

Trump axes Comey amid probe BY JULIE PACE AND ERIC TUCKER Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump abruptly fired FBI Director James Comey Tuesday, dramatically ousting the nation’s top law enforcement oﬃcial in the midst of an FBI investigation into whether Trump’s campaign had ties to Russia’s meddling in the election that sent him to the White House. In a letter to Comey, Trump said the firing was necessary to restore “public trust and confidence” in the FBI. Comey has come under intense scrutiny in recent months for his public comments on an investigation into Democrat Hillary Clinton’s email practices, including a pair of letters he sent to Congress on the matter in the closing days of last year’s campaign. Trump made no mention of Comey’s role in the Clinton investigation, which she has blamed in part for the election result. But in announcing the firing, the White House circulated a scathing memo,

written by Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, criticizing Comey’s handling of the Clinton probe, including the director’s decision to hold a news conference announcing its findings and releasing “derogatory information” about Clinton. Since Attorney General Jeﬀ Sessions recused himself from the bureau’s Trump-Russia probe, Rosenstein, his deputy, has been in charge. This is only the second firing of an FBI director in history. President Bill Clinton dismissed William Sessions amid allegations of ethical lapses in 1993. Democrats slammed Trump’s action, comparing it to President Richard Nixon’s “Saturday Night Massacre” decision to fire the independent special prosecutor overseeing the Watergate investigation in 1973, which prompted the resignations of the Justice Department’s top two oﬃcials. “This is Nixonian,” Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pa., declared on Twitter. “Outrageous,” said Oregon Sen.

Ron Wyden, calling for Comey to immediately be summoned to testify to Congress about the status of the Trump-Russia investigation. Rep. Adam Schiﬀ of California, top Democrat on the House intelligence committee, said the White House was “brazenly interfering” in the probe. Republican Sen. John McCain of Arizona said Congress must form a special committee to investigate Russia’s interference in the election. Democrats expressed deep skepticism about the stated reasons for Tuesday’s firing, raising the prospect of a White House eﬀort to stymie the investigations by the FBI and congressional panels. Trump will now appoint Comey’s successor. The White House said the search for a replacement was beginning immediately. Comey’s deputy, Andrew McCabe, would presumably take over in the interim. Trump has ridiculed the investigations as a “hoax” and has denied that his campaign was involved

in Russia’s meddling. In his letter to Comey, he asserted that the FBI director had informed him “on three separate occasions that I am not under investigation.” Tuesday’s stunning announcement came shortly after the FBI corrected aspects of Comey’s sworn testimony on Capitol Hill last week. Comey told lawmakers that Huma Abedin, a top aide to Hillary Clinton, had sent “hundreds and thousands” of emails to her husband’s laptop, including some with classified information. On Tuesday, the FBI told the Senate Judiciary Committee that only “a small number” of the thousands of emails found on the laptop had been forwarded there while most had simply been backed up from electronic devices. Most of the email chains on the laptop containing classified information were not the result of forwarding, the FBI said. Some lawmakers did welcome news of the dismissal.

yards and are visible from the street.” Residents will receive notice giving them 30 days to correct the situation. A junk vehicle is de-

fined by the city code as one that does not have a current Mississippi license plate or is not in operating condition. The definition also includes a trailer, camper or boat without a current registration plate. In residential zones, the ordinance allows one junk vehicle to be stored behind opaque fencing or landscaping that completely blocks the view of the vehicle from all surrounding property. It is also the time of the year when the need for mowing brings many properties to the city’s

attention. A long list will soon come before the city board to consider for mowing. “It will be a lot of repeats from years before because those owners are deceased or absentee or don’t live here any longer, and the city has basically inherited the responsibility of trying to keep them cut,” said Ratliff. The city tends to focus its mowing efforts on properties that are in high-traffic areas or in close proximity to a number of other residences, he said.

Deer licks barrel of hunterâ€™s shotgun DANVILLE, Ind. â€” Some daring deer approached a group of hunters in central Indiana and one was so unafraid that it licked the barrel of a shotgun and allowed one of the men to stroke its neck. Perhaps they knew the men were hoping to bag a turkey? Leon Champine says the young animals didnâ€™t have their mother with them â€œto teach them what is dangerous.â€? Champine, of Indianapolis, told WXIN-TV that he and his friends encountered the inquisitive animals over the weekend in Hendricks County. One of the men, Corey Cook, recorded video showing the deer wandering toward the camouflaged men who are hidden in the undergrowth. The video shows one nuzzling the barrel of a gun in the waning afternoon sunlight.

Guidance may lead to harsher jail time WASHINGTON â€” Justice Department officials have been weighing new guidance that would encourage prosecutors to charge suspects with the most serious offenses they

can prove, a reversal of Obama-era policies that aimed to reduce the federal prison population and show more leniency to lower-level drug offenders. If embraced by Attorney General Jeff Sessions, this could result in an increased use of rigid mandatory minimum sentences that critics have called unnecessarily harsh. The guidance is taking shape in the form of a memo that ultimately will be shared with the nationâ€™s federal prosecutors, but the timeframe for release is unclear. Drafts of the memo have been circulating for weeks and have undergone revisions, so the final language is not yet certain.

Hernandezâ€™s murder conviction tossed FALL RIVER, Mass. â€” A judge on Tuesday erased a 2013 murder conviction against former NFL star Aaron Hernandez, ruling that case law in Massachusetts has long established that defendants who die before their appeals are heard should have their convictions vacated. Bristol County Superior Court Judge E. Susan Garsh said she was compelled to follow precedent in ordering that Hernandezâ€™s first-

degree murder conviction be dismissed in the death of semi-professional football player Odin Lloyd. Hernandez killed himself in prison last month while serving a life sentence. Lloydâ€™s mother fought back tears after the ruling Tuesday, saying the former New England Patriots tight end would always be guilty in the eyes of her family. Prosecutors said they would appeal the ruling to the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court.

Spirit blames pilots for canceled flights FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. â€” Irate passengers swarmed ticket counters and some started a near-riot at Fort Lauderdaleâ€™s airport after Spirit Airlines canceled nine flights, blaming the decision on pilotsâ€™ failure to show up. Hundreds were left stranded at the airlinesâ€™ Florida terminal late Monday. The chaos was the latest instance of airlines dealing with high-profile customer frustration. Problems began last month with cellphone video capturing a passenger being dragged off a United Airlines flight. Other horror stories from customers surfaced later involving flights on Delta and American airlines.

Truck hits homeless shelter, killing 1 JACKSON (AP) â€” A pickup truck has plowed through a fence and smashed into the kitchen of a homeless shelter in Mississippiâ€™s capital city, killing a pedestrian. The director of Gateway Rescue Mission, Rex Baker, says the 58-year-old man killed Tuesday was well known to the staff because he ate there often. His name was not immediately released. Baker says the truck came to rest where the serving line would be. The accident happened about an hour and a half before the scheduled lunch hour. Jackson police say the truck is owned by the custodial division of the city of Jackson. It was not immediately clear what caused the crash. The driver was treated for injuries.
