Dear Netters,

Here is another extra (for many) but necessary mail (for the interested
readers) that I had to decide to post here. Please hit delete key if you
are not interested in this topic. I sincerely want to apologize for this
mail to all netters.

In a previous post, I mentioned that Kelvin Leung explictily asked me
to add his name to the list of petitioners for the beating death of Mr.
Luyen Phan Nguyen.

This was a mistake. Mr. Kelvin Leung shared my concern in the first article
that I had posted before I sent my protest letter to U.S. officials and then
explicitly called for netter's concern about this justtice matter. Mr. Leung
did not ecplicitely asked me to include his name. I hope that you all have
seen this clarification in my previous post.

The netter who explicitly asked me to include his name before I exlicitly
called for netter's concern was Mr. Kenneth Yerro Ilio <kyig6809@uxa.cso.
uiuc.edu| from the Veterinary Biosciences Department, University of Illinois
at Urbana-Champaign. I hope that Mr. Yerror Ilio does not mind about my
note here.

I am so sorry for this mistake and I want to apologize to Mr. Kelvin Leung
and Mr. Yerro Ilio for my confusion. Basically, I had more mails than I
could handle in appropriately. I hope that both these two helpful netter
will accept my apology.

After this post, I will not continue to post on this topic until the coming
Satuday to avoid further mistake that might have bothered many netters.
Please email me privately for any concern in this matter. I will try to
respond to you thorugh personal mail.

Sincerely Yours,

Chris - nguyen@drutx.att.com

| Dear Christopher,
| 
| 	Before you include my name in the list of protesters, I would like
| to once again clarify my position.  In response to your first posting of
| the beating, I expressed my sympathy.  I, however, cannot and will not
| consider this incident as a result of mere racial hatred.  I agree that
| the gang has to be punished.  Their punishment not only serves the purpose
| of educating them, but also to demonstrate that such beatings will not 
| be tolerated.  Nonetheless, I don't agree with the tone of voice of the
| letter you just wrote.  Frankly, I believe in letting live.  I believe in
| giving them chances.  I believe in education. 
| 
| 	I refuse to blame it solely on racism, as I believe it would happen
| to anyone.  If any of my beliefs contradict with yours, and differ from 
| the purpose of the letter, please take my name out of your list.  However,
| if you decide to leave my name on the list, please include my response
| to your posting in the letter.
| 
| 	For those who disagree with me, and see the needs to argue, please
| do so via e-mail.  I stand firm on my beliefs, and I don't believe in
| revenge. Thanks for listening.
| 
| Yours Sincerely,
| Kelvin
