Michael Jackson's Version of the Tortoise and the Hare
Hi everyone. My name is Michael. Michael Jackson. You have recently heard the Crips’ and the Bloods’ versions of the story. I only saw a portion of the event, but I will tell you what I know. It was the late evening in downtown Manhattan. I was spying on a group of elementary kids, heeeh he, I mean I was getting some mail from the post office. I heard some gunshots coming from an old warehouse. I went and investigated it. I saw the two gangs shooting at each other. I saw Achmed strap a bomb to his chest and blow up the warehouse. I then saw both gangs come up out of the wreckage. They were pointing guns in each other faces. I then heard and saw them come to an agreement to settle their problems with a street race. One of the gang members by the name of Jimmy hollered “isn’t tha thaaaa t Mi Mi Michael Jacksonnn. Both gangs looked and saw me. They then hollered, “Get him”, he is a witness. I ran as fast as I could. The gangs were shooting at me with guns like the Uzi, M-16, and the AK-47. I ran into an ally. I thought I was safe there. I was wrong Jimmy found me. I wasn’t about to be killed by two psycho gangs. There was only one thing I could do. That was sing. I started to sing beat it.

Once I was finished with the song the two gangs were nowhere in sight. I had scared them off with my singing. I then went home. That is al I know about the event.
