I just saw on Mark Gibson's blog about Rosa Parks' passing. While Mark pretty much said it all, I remember a few years ago when she was mugged I had hoped that that incident would be the catalyst to stop inner-city crime. Unfortunately, no one took up the gauntlet.
But do not take this as typical internet bashing. I have nothing but the highest respect for her and feel she has done more than enough for humanity. Far more than I, at least.
