BambaLaye & Conteh, From your posting,it appears Earl's crime was to befriend Gaddaffi and by extension Jammeh.What about his contribution to the civil rights movement?What about his contribution towards alleviating the conditions of people of African decent here in the USA from which most of us now benefit. It must be recalled that back in the 70s,most people that were involved in the struggle for black liberation idolized Gaddaffi for his stand against western domination and influence and i believe that Earl was one of them. The idea that anyone who has some association with Gaddaffi and by extension Jammeh,is anti Gambia or anti democracy is pathetic. No hard feelings just a thought.
