Thanks for posting them. Maybe I was too quick to shit on Carroll for it - though really it was Buck's comment that made me so annoyed with the whole thing. I stand by the general point though, because I do think it's a problem with these supposed allies. But to read that he does get involved in the inner city community gets some love.
