Dear Mr. Reggie Copeland, Mobile City Council -- your request has been denied.

December 2, 2011

Mr. Copeland (Mobile City Council Member, District 5),

As a longtime resident of Mobile, AL and a current resident of Daphne, AL, which is a suburb of Mobile, I have a right to communicate, via email, with any and every city official in both cities. What happens in the city of Mobile is broadcasted daily over the airwaves through radio, TV, via the internet and in the Press-Register affecting the lives of citizens on both sides of the bay. Much of the what makes the news is scary stuff. Recently, I have raised allegations of political and law enforcement corruption against two former officials working in the Mobile District Attorney's office, which is located in downtown Mobile.

As a city council member, I would think you might want to know all about this unless you already know all about it. Is this old news to you? Your request to be taken off my contact list raises "red flags" with me. Maybe we should investigate your past and present dealings as a government official. You've been on the city council for way too long for my comfort. Get a life! I will give you two options for getting off my list, either, you can resign from your office, today, or you become a convicted politician whichever comes first and then I will gladly honor your request.

I am the son of a marine and I like to kick ass! Do you get my drift and I can bend steel with my teeth. I'm unbreakable and I am here for the long haul. I am the new sheriff in town. Change is happening. I've had enough of your form of city government and your way of doing business, it only works for the politicrooks. More emails are coming your way rest assured, but you can ignore them the same way you ignore the corruption occurring, daily, in your office and around Government Plaza.

Your request has been denied and to any other government official hoping for the same treatment well you too are out of luck. Don't even bother asking me. You're not Joe Citizen. You've lost that right as a public official.

In reviewing your biography (see below), I see where you've spent much of your time around sports and bringing sporting events and teams to Mobile. That's fine. However, sports has become a sugar coating on an otherwise bad tasting piece of candy -- be it at a cherished university or in a city. Mobile looks and taste like crap in its current form. This must change, it will.

You've ignored this longstanding reality. You've spent your entire corporate and political career doing the easy stuff instead of doing the heavy lifting of keeping our city government corrupt-free, solvent and working and it shows. The city's finances and security are a complete mess, why don't you explain to all of us why that's the case? Why the need to raise the sales tax, again? Everybody wants to know. What don't we know?

You start doing your job and I will do mine and we'll get along just fine.

Have a good day!
