A city councilman in Jackson, Mississippi, set off a firestorm of disapproval Thursday when he urged citizens to lob projectiles such as bottles and bricks at the police when they cross county lines into their neighborhood. Councilman Kenneth Stokes said he wants to send a message to police officers who enter Ward 3 from other jurisdictions in pursuit of criminals. "Let's get rocks; let's get bricks, and let's get bottles," Stokes told reporters. "And we'll start throwing them, and then they won't come in here anymore."
