When you travel out of state and people ask 'Where are you from?', the easy answer is "Milwaukee"--because nobody in Minnesota knows where "New Berlin" or "Oconomowoc" or "Pewaukee" is.
But if you say "Milwaukee" you have a problem: the entire Government of that City and County. It's embarrassing, ya'know, and it gets worse every day.
...Milwaukee reported more than 10,000 car thefts last year, outpacing even Chicago in the dubious honor. Half of those arrested are juveniles 16 and older. Just 2 percent are prosecuted,...
What do you tell people? That the D.A. and his entire staff have been vacationing in Hayward for a couple of years?
Well, the elected geniuses have a better idea!!!
...Alderman Khalif Rainey and Alderwoman Milele Coggs have written letters scolding the automakers.
“KIA and Hyundai are directly responsible, in my view, for the drain on police and other city resources that have been sadly directed to deal with the rash of vehicle thefts and the havoc those thefts have brought to our city,” Alderman Rainey said. “It’s time for these companies to fix the problem they created.”...
(Note to Empower Wisconsin: those are "Aldercritters." You can avoid the inane "-man or 'woman" bullshit that way.)
Yup. It is the CAR COMPANIES' fault!
Still want to be "from Milwaukee"?
