McGee has lost it

Not that you needed another reason to think McGee is crazy...

But this may just take the cake.

Beating Outside Malcolm X Academy Brings Call For Harsher Sentencing

Ald. McGee Wants 10 Years Added To Convictions When Victim Is Black

Ald. Mike McGee, Jr. says the beating death of 15-year-old Raheim Patrick at a bus stop on Thursday is another example of the kind of destructive behavior in Milwaukee that must end. The alderman hopes to convince the state Legislature to adopt stricter sentencing guidelines that would add 10 years to the sentence of anyone convicted of intentional homicide when the victim is Black.

In addition to calling for harsher sentencing guidelines at a Monday news conference, Ald. McGee says if no arrests have been made by that time, he and a group of businessmen will offer a $5,000 reward for the arrest and conviction of the perpetrators in the death of Raheim Patrick.

"We have been preaching nonviolence toward each other," said Ald. McGee, "but it's getting so violent that we're going to have to intensify our efforts and the expectations we have for each other, and we are going to have to turn up the heat on those who perpetrate this type of behavior."

Ald. McGee will discuss his proposal at a news conference on Monday, March 27, 2006 at 10 a.m. outside Malcolm X Academy, 2760 N. 1st St. The alderman's Respect Kampain Street Code All-Stars, who have been touring schools with a message of nonviolence, and members of his Rapid Response Team will also take part. Media coverage is welcome.

"We must be more proactive in our approach to terrorists in our neighborhoods," said Ald. McGee. "We are past the point of talking and have to show them what we mean." The alderman said he would go into more detail on what that means at the news conference.

Yes, that's right. Our very own Michael McGee Junior wants harsher sentencing that would add 10 years to the sentence of anyone convicted of intentional homicide when the victim is Black.

Does that mean the life of a Black person is more valuable than the life of a Caucasian, Latino or Asian (or any other nationality for that matter)?

And, what happens when the "perps" are also black? Does that negate his proposed legislation?

I can't wait to see how people respond to his news conference Monday...

And, I'm real surprised no one's reported this yet. He may as well come out and call any intentional homicide of an African American a hate crime.
