Democrats call off rally McKinney was to attend

[TomInTib]

In the body of the article is this, which I find somewhat interesting in light of recent events:


McKinney is in town to promote "American Blackout," a movie she stars in that accuses Longboat Key Republican Katherine Harris of helping Republicans steal the 2000 presidential election for President George W. Bush.

But the message of the movie was going to be overshadowed by McKinney's recent troubles, Bright said.

Since March 29, McKinney has been defending herself for striking a police officer who tried to prevent her from walking past a security checkpoint. Members of Congress usually don't pass through the checkpoints, but McKinney wasn't wearing an identification pin that members of Congress are issued.

McKinney called a press conference after the event in which she said she was a victim of racial profiling. McKinney is black.
