Keep Up the Good Work
Halloween Decorations Winners Announced
Dear Editor: I never do this but feel I must. I truly enjoy the email that I get from the Gabber and the articles about the Black cemeteries is extremely interesting. Please keep up the great work. Gulfport is a different place for sure and I hope to be down within the month to enjoy it. Great to see that you don’t have a town drunk but that you all take turns. Stay safe. – Michael Gerasimovich
So Lame Dear Editor: You said no politics. Well first the cartoon showing BLM, then this week [a] fundraiser for them. No police report, knock off the humor just report like a reporter should. No horoscope. Community question so lame. Nothing much left to look forward to for me. Sorry. – Jerri Tate Editor’s note: The Gabber has never had a policy of “no politics.” It was founded in 1968 specifically to cover local politics. The Gabber encourages letters and commentary. Be brief and sign your real name. Email letters to news@ thegabber.com or mail them to us at 2908-B Beach Blvd. S., Gulfport, FL 33707.
