Gates 911 Caller Press Conference

Posted by Greg L on July 30, 2009 · Leave a Comment

After Obama has arranged for Gates and Crowley to have a Happy Hour at the White House, what else is there to discuss about this? Well apparently, the 911 Caller has retained an attorney. She appeared with her attorney earlier at a press conference and and nearly teared up on a few occasions during it. I’m wondering if she’s preparing to sue someone. Given the litigious nature of our society, the question is a valid one to raise.

“If we remain poor and dependent, the riches of other men will not avail us. If we are ignorant, the intelligence of other men will do but little for us. If we are foolish, the wisdom of other men will not guide us. If we are wasteful of time and money, the economy of other men will only make our destitution the more disgraceful and hurtful. “
Frederick Douglass
“If you form the habit of going by what you hear others say about someone, or going by what others think about someone, instead of searching that thing out for yourself and seeing for yourself, you will be walking west when you think you’re going east, and you will be walking east when you think you’re going west. This generation, especially of our people, has a burden, more so than any other time in history. The most important thing we can learn to do today is think for ourselves.”
Malcolm X
