This establishment has been a huge Pilar in the city for over 45 years. It's a place where people connect on all facets of life (ie..job connections, strengthen the mind set of peers to bring unity, providing school and or small business scholarships to better not only the community, but the city as a whole).

I enjoy this establishment and it would be sad loss for the community and those that patron here. One business cannot control crime in the area that is beyond their control.

I have work for this family for 30 years and in these years this has never happened.What happens outside can not be controlled by management of this business.This is the only establishment that offers all types of entertainment in the community.I really don’t think customers would support this club if it was so bad.

I have been a bartender for 18 years. I frequent Mr Js to see bartender and DJ friends. This is a establishment that goes out of their way to serve their customers. I have a great time every time I go. There are not very many clubs in the city of Milwaukee that cater to an older mature crowd. Unfortunately, bad people are everywhere. Mr Js is not their playground. The bar has ample security and cameras. They should not be held accountable for the unkind acts of others.

Socialization Is a must due to what we just been through with COVID. Mr J Pardons are older adults. The hall is needed in our community.

I have been a patron of this establishment for many years and understand that the acts of some are a community issue, not a Mr. J's issue. In addition Mr. J's is socially responsible by supporting many charitable events throughout the years. Many I have partnered with them on and have been a Godsend for the beneficiaries of their goodwill.

I enjoy this night club. We don't have many places for mature adults to gather losing Mr. Js would be a tragedy for our working class community.

I have going to Mr. J's since it open and for more than 2 decades clubs run by Arlis Jones and his family. Clubs that cater to the mature over 30 and 40 adults are very rare in our city and shutting down Mr Js will not help solve the massive violence problem that is happening everywhere. I'm 58 yerars old and always feel welcomed and very safe with the Mr Js staff and patrons. I support Mr Js. Please keep Mr Js open

I have celebrated many a friends birthday parties here. I have met friend after work to celebrate various life changes and celebrations. I took my daughter and Don in law here whike they were visiting from Atlanta. Security was always present and I never felt under any threat. People of color need a place to socialize. This is one of the nicest clubs in the City of Milwaukee to do just that. They run a clean and safe environment.

Mr Js is a responsible community establishment and should be allowed to continue to operate at full capacity.
