However as the City of Milwaukee continues to experience its share of crime and violence. Mr J's have found itself embroiled, mislabeled and maligned by others as a magnet for these unfortunate events.

On February 16th, 2022 during its renewal before the City's Licensing Committee. Mr J's Lounge was denied licensing renewal, in part due to factors which are of no fault of Mr. J’s and outside of its control. These factors include crimes which rise out of individuals with personal conflicts and confrontations or property damage resulting out of negligence and opportunity. Shootings, Personal Injury crimes and Property thefts is at a all time high in Milwaukee and occur throughout the city continuously. However, rarely are they considered the fault of an establishment or business. Mr. J’s Lounge should not be made an exception to this rule and should not be made to take the blame for occurrences that are beyond its control.

Our obligation is to continue to provide a safe environment for our customers, as well as earn the business, support and trust of our patrons and neighborhood. This is our number priority.
