He just posted the following on the Rio Gringa blog
http://riogringa.typepad.com/my_weblog/2009/03/rio-de-janeiro-protest-call-out.html#comments This is Gerald Thomas and I FULLY SUPPORT DAVID GOLDMAN AND HIS STRUGGLE TO GET HIS SON BACK.
As much as I love Brazil (and we all do, don't we?), there has been too much of this IMPUNITY going on. Brazil is slowly (and unfortunately), becoming a heaven for international crooks.For some unknown reason, it treats them as if they are the heros, thus misbehaving and awarding criminals of all orders with the medal of "international alienation" and impunity. We must not allow this to happen and/or continue. Those people who are holding Sean Goldman are just those kind of people!
If we care about Mr. Goldman and his son and if we care at all about bringing Brazil up to the standards of a country that deserves to be amongst the strong economic "G's, then , please, join this cause.
Thank you.
Gerald Thomas
