WTF do I know, I forgot I'm not a bleeding heart liberal socialist feel good fukstick, if I was then I'd know that common sense has no place in this argument.
So what your saying is that instead of treating an officer with respect when he first shows up, you should immediately accuse him of racial profiling, then yell, then don't follow orders, then cry foul when you get arrested for disorderly conduct. Thats obiviously why the cops showed up, was to racially profile the black man and unjustly throw him in jail, not because somebody called in an african american person trying to force their way into a house in a neighborhood that has had multiple mid day break ins in the last few weeks.
BTW,
Did you make it up to the ditch to floss this year? you look like a guy from seattle I used to fish next too quite often up at near where old man frank usually fished.

Who really gives a rat's ass? I've never heard a President use the word "stupidly" before, and I found it rather refreshing. He didn't say all cops are stupid, or even that all cops in the area are stupid,.....he said the situation was handled stupidly. Is it hard to agree on that? I think Dogfish is absolutely dialed on this. My guess is that the Prof is a racist with an anti-cop 'tude. Perhaps with good reasons from past issues....I have no way of knowing. Did the cop lose his cool?....maybe. Is that OK? F'CK NO! Cops need to be held to a higher standard than is reasonable, but they have the right to go home safely, just like anyone else. If the cop(s) felt the Prof was a threat.....let him cool off in a safe place.

Well... since you ain't black or latino and haven't experienced racial profiling or institutional racism first-hand WRO... I'd venture to say that you don't really know what the f*#k you're yappin' about now do ya? I'm not and have so I'd venture that you don't know what the f*#k YOU'RE yappin' 'bout...do ya? Typical liberal that HAS to side with the "minority".... BTW what is Gates' (Mr. I see racism in everything) claim to fame? Last I looked Professors (even Harvard) don't get a free "I can be a dick to the cops" pass. But I'm sure ymmv. Looks like even Obammy the magnificent has backtracked....but carry on.

No offense, but when did you NOT think so? BTW, they arrested him for 'disturbing the peace', NOT for 'breaking and entering'... (I'm pretty sure they KNEW he owned the house when they put the cuffs on.)

Disorderly/disturbing: Splitting hairs.
Maybe he should have left, maybe not. Hard saying, not being there and all...

You are ignoring this: Gates initially refused to hand over his ID, instead angrily accusing the officer of being a racist and "leveling threats that he wasn't someone to mess with," the report says.
After Gates produced his Harvard University ID, he repeatedly demanded Crowley state his name, which the officer claims he had already done.
Crowley said Gates continued hurling insults at him as he left the home. Crowley arrested the scholar for disorderly conduct.
"He was arrested after following me outside the house, continuing the tirade even after being warned multiple times - probably a few more times than the average person would," Crowley told the radio station.
Threatening a police officer is grounds for arrest. Police OFTEN arrest folks (and the charges get dropped) for similar behavior... and it doesn't mean any racism is occurring.

Let me put it this way: How about if I call the cops over to your house based on having seen an attempted break-in. When they ring the bell, start hurling threats and insults at them. Allow them to enter your house, then yell at them some more, even after they continually warn you not too. Continue to insult them as they are leaving.
What type of outcome do you think you should expect?
What's wrong with just respecting that the officer has a job to do and is responding to a call?
Why not calmly show your id (with your address and picture on it) and say goodnight to the officer(s)? These are not the actions of a reasonable person, and a responding officer should not have "stood down".
But again: I wasn't there...
Dude, they are COPS. They aren't there to get your cat out of a tree... And they don't usually care about your intellectual musings about wether or not they are racist.

Any of you so-called rednecks that have ever been at a logging-road kegger that got busted up by the county mounties would know that the cop's story the next morning is a very different tale than what actually occurred.
As in:
"During the suspect's apprehension, he tripped repeatedly in his intoxicated state and contacted the hood of the police cruiser with his face repeatedly." You were prolly being a stupid drunk...live and learn.

I disagree. The only reason this happened, is because this guy is buddies with Obama, and he knew it would get him in the news. Guessing he didn't consider the backlash against his pal though.

I never said it was planned. Opportunistic maybe.
Here is somethin for ya!
Gates has told The Washington Post that he now intends to do a documentary on racial profiling – an idea that had "never crossed his mind" before now. The "criminal justice system is rotten," he said.
Never crossed his mind, really! Huh, guessing the other documentaries he did, that most never heard of, will be shown now too.
Ya know KK you are the epitome of the "open minded, enlightened liberal intellect".

Yeah, it was probably all he was thinking about on the plane ride from China, while fighting a bronchial infection on the ride home. Just a wishing he would have a chance to have a run in with a white cop, so he could go to the White House and have a beer with O, and the cracker cop in the name of diversity. It was probably all planned, the cop was in on it too. You wingnuts are something else, every single event is some sort of 'conspiracy. Do you even realize how fu cking stoopid half the sh!t you post sounds ? I mean, where's the latest wingnut e-mail about muslims anyway, care to post that up ? Seriously, no joke, what the hell are you smoking.............. I didn't realize the Gates and Obama were 'buddies' or even more than casual aquaintances, but seeing as all the homies roll on the homeslice shizzle and all, I suppose you're right. It's not like this matter is of great import, plenty of other things going on much more pressing, health care, Afghanistan, Iraq still, economy, Sottomayor and SCOTUS, but this generates the interest, the cable minutes, the wingnut talk shows. STFU....
