Hi. Ms. Rose,

I came across a great article about what a fraud Skip Gates is…it’s kind of lengthy but I thought you may be interested in it. http://www.counterpunch.org/reed07272009.html

Also I don’t know if you are familiar with the blog Whataboutourdaughters but she has a great critique of Gates on her blog too.

I was on the side of Gates, but after reading your blog and both articles it is clear to me that Gates is an opportunist to put it lightly. I have no doubt that he escalated the situation with the officer in order to make a point and get some attention.

He’ll probably turn this into a money making opportunity in the form of a book or some racial profiling documentary.

Anyway thanks again for putting a different perspective out there.

Thanks,

Sarah

I didn’t know Sarah Palin read your blog. See she still doesn’t have a mind of her own. “I was on his side till I read your blog” I wish she would’ve inc what actully changed her mind.. On this topic.

Huh, excuse me…
I guess you could say that Martin Luther King, Rosa Parks, and the SCLC were opportunists as well.

WTF?!?!

Rosa Parks knew what would happen if she sat in the front of the bus. And, she did it anyway to make a point. Thanks to her and others who took advantage of the opportunity to prove a point … we can now sit anywhere we want.
