Subject to Change

I’m not the McGee(s) you’re looking for.

Dear Bubba,

You will be getting a new roommate soon. His name is Michael McGee Jr., or Michael Jackson. To be honest, we’re not really sure what his legal name is. You see, Michael is a shady character. Until recently he actually had two driver’s licenses, two social security numbers, and a mistress or two.

Mr. McGee was a Milwaukee alderman, until his bad behavior landed him in the bunk under yours. He has a history of violent outbursts and diarrhea of the mouth. He has openly threatened violence against his opponents, going so far as to turn to his supporters to fear-monger the people who stand up against him. Some physical attacks and fire bombings have even taken place. Most recently, the former alderman declared war on the entire city of Milwaukee. We have yet to see what he meant by that.

Perhaps you’re wondering how a man like McGee, who has gotten away with so much for so long, finally found himself under your gentle care. Well, The Alderman took his reign of terror just a little too far. He abused his position of power to take advantage of the people in his district. I imagine that if you met his constituents, they might remind you of home. They’re people much like yourself, struggling to make it in a rough neighborhood. But, The Alderman was greedy. He shook them down and took their hard earned money in return for political favors.

Luckily for the people of his district, at least two brave souls decided to stand up for themselves and their community. They turned to the authorities, who worked to catch Mr. McGee in the act. The rest, as they say, is history.

Please take good care of Michael. He deserves the best.

Thank you,

Concerned neighbor

P.S. Michael is extremely homophobic. It may be difficult for him on the inside. Please see that his prison time passes as comfortably as possible.

I didn’t believe that I heard what I thought I heard, then Jenna quoted this article.

Michael McGee Jr. actually said “We’re at war with the City of Milwaukee.”

Seriously.

He did.

Just one quick question:

Why bother being an alderman if you’re at war with the city?

Another quick question:

Who do you serve by doing so?

Ok, one more:

Are you a complete idiot?

Wait, wait… Last one:

You and what army?
