Harper<br /><br />As an individual person, all I can tell you is this: I believe in the SF Bay Times mission and the road that Betty and team want to head down. All it needs is a little bit of time. Hopefully when we throw an non-HRC event you will join us.Adminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07004082541269653872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141703.post-61422818731673897222011-08-08T12:05:40.641-07:002011-08-08T12:05:40.641-07:00hi raj,

My name is Raj. <br /><br />Naive would be making judgment calls about initiatives and goals by only seeing the first step. I do understand the need to be resourceful and smart about the strategy - trust me sir, I have a plan. It may not be the way you would probably would do things, but as with all things in my life - I have to trust my instincts and move one step forward at a time, all the same while learning and getting better while I go. <br /><br />I fight for the underdog, probably because I've always been one myself. Ive learned a lot over the course of my life and when fighting with underdogs, I like to follow something FDR said, "It’s common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something."Adminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07004082541269653872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141703.post-28519438097138091792011-08-04T16:37:54.420-07:002011-08-04T16:37:54.420-07:00hi admin,

HRC has no problems raising money, thanks to folks like you who are naive.<br /><br />also, there is so much wrong with the lack of info from the new publisher and her team at bay times, in not informing the reader about the many changes taking place.<br /><br />you really should rethink taking SF dollars and sending them to HRC in DC.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08359712473083091475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141703.post-5148138508925082072011-08-04T14:29:17.987-07:002011-08-04T14:29:17.987-07:00Hi Michael,

While a small error on our part as how we presented our event in the SF Bay Times, I wanted to be clear on the intentions of this event. Our overall goal is to promote DGC and our benefactors using various methods not just print. While there is always controversy on where to begin with helping, using my best judgement I gave direction to my team to execute such an event with all the marketing needs. My coalition is not paid for this, and quite honestly I personally paid for that ad. People that work these events are donating personal time to do so. This is my first step in joining the cause for equality in all shapes and form. I wanted to support voices in the human rights community and SF Bay Times was the way to get the message out. I can tell you this - as time goes on we will do more and try to gain more positive exposure to help the community any way we can. Isn't it time we set love free?Adminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07004082541269653872noreply@blogger.com
