The racially motivated President owes this officer an apology on NATIONAL TV where he made these disparing comments about the CPD and Officer Crowley.
I agree with you 100%. Both during the incident, and especially after the fact, Gates was trying to trigger an incident. He was baiting the cop to do exactly what he did, and has proven himself a clown.
On the other side, however, Mass General Law states that an officer MUST provide identification upon request. The officer failed to do so, and found himself in violation of the law. The law must always be bi-directional, it needs to keep the people safe from each other, and from the government.
Gates should be laughed at, as is happening nationally now.
The cop needs to be disciplined, and reminded that he is not empowered to decide which laws he adheres to (particularly the ones which regulate his behavior and not the public’s).
Neighbor and officer 100% vindicated. Gates and Obama acted “stupidly”.
What a baiting job by both 911 operator and Gates. Both 911 caller and Crowley were doing their jobs as citizens and law enforcement. BO has his own MO – the Press Conference question was planted on purposes by Admin.
The fragment from the recording tells little, but the Officer certainly seems respectful. Obama owes the nation an apology.
ENOUGH! Breitbart is just gonna run this crap into the ground, right?
Obama apologized — AND even invited Gates and the dogmatic cop over
for a beer. It’s done! GET OVER THIS! It’s not NEWS! Never was!
It’s an oooold story…
But, oh that’s right…this site is reserved for the Grand OLD Party – so, of course — you need to hear things repeated over and over.
America is now waiting for the GOP-led media to apologize for making this
nonsense a headline to begin with — as it does NOT resemble ANYTHING close to being a newsworthy item…
There’s nothing anyone can do about this dustup – except those involved.
Ever since Reagan, however, the US is bombarded with moral dilemmas in which we have no decision in the outcome – disguised as *news*.
THIS IS NOT NEWS. Think of all the REAL news Americans don’t get when this tired commentary gets repeated over and over and over….
Ronnie must be so proud of the GOP’s always-distracting non-headlines!
I believe both the POTUS and Professor Gates should apologize to the Officer. This President is causing racial problems in the US. After listening to the 911 call, the caller was beyond polite and nice and appeared the 911 Officer had an attitude. I imagine when everything else is released it will be a hinder to the POTUS.
Obama & Gates owe the “whitey” (as Gates has called ‘white’ people) police officer an apology – they also owe all law enforcement officers an apology for accusing them of racism when they are the ones with the foul attitude.
Just look at the picture of Gates freaking out when he is arrested and the sane black man in the front of the picture!
Now who “acted stupidly”? Oh, right, the two racists. The President and the Professor.
Welcome to the Obama Nation.
Wacky Baracky – if there was ever any doubt he’s out of the closet now.
Race-baitin’ pieces of ….
See our site for relief for the common Liberal.
‘flog a dead horse’ commented said “Obama apologized — AND even invited Gates and the dogmatic cop over for a beer. It’s done! GET OVER THIS! It’s not NEWS! Never was! It’s an oooold story…”
What in the world? No he didn’t apologize. He said he regretted that his comments were a big deal! Notice your disdain for this honest cop as you call him “the dogmatic cop” that is Officer Crowley to you!
Who is the real racist?
TecumsehSherman
I think if you read that law that an officer must provide identification it does not say he has to do it in any specific time. I am sure he provided it on the arrest report. A criminal or suspected criminal can not demand a cop stop doing what he is doing and pull out his wallet.
Remember this whole time that cop did not know if there was another guy hiding in the house.
Say what you want about Fox News but I’d bet you won’t hear this tape and the original call in 911 tape played very many times on “Couric News”, MSNBC and CNN! Well, maybe after midnight but surely not prime time!
of course he wasn’t cooperative. Welcome to ChicagoLand, America. Welcome to your “diverse” and “multicultural” future.
Is Obama going to ration health care on the same race based guidelines giving certain privileges groups with greater access just because of their race? This president is a disgrace and his policies are aimed to destroy the white people who is hates.
Lets hear all of this tape!!!!! You know who was ranting and yelling!!!!!! Yeap another of President Obama’s friend.
I demand an apology from Obama & Gates!
I”m a black male, and I have to admit, the Cops were acting correctly, and Obama, and his croonies owe our great nation, and its Police Dept, an apology. Nuff said. I’m sooo tired of my black people. They are the most racists people on the planet.
Hey “Flogadeadhorse” – Thank God someone on the left see’s it this way. I assume you will lead the Democrat’s charge to halt trying to bring Bush and Cheney up on criminal charges…. Or Rumsfeld on war crimes…. It’s a two way street my friend and while your boy is in the white house, the GOP gets to play arm chair QB. The game is afoot. How does it taste?
I do NOT think Sar. Crowley should MEET for a ridiculous beer! This only TRIVIALIZES this WHOLE situation!! It only helps Obama and Gates! It puts them on EQUAL Playing fields when Sar. Crowley is guilt of NOTHING!! I am very disappoointed with the Mayor’s office NOW throwing a press conference Basically Appologizing! a complete REVERSAL of what they gathered about prior! Gates is a RACIST as proof in his Yale Application calling caucasions “whitey” – also a YOU TUBE video surfaced of Gates Spewing Racial Hatred in a church (yah, de ja vue?) and lastly, him getting on CNN and telling us that he is “horrified and astonished to find out he has 57% white genes in him!!!” IM SORRY, but FACTS do not lie. HIS WORDS in all of them!! Crowley should NOT meet!!!
Barrack Obama Hates White People
NO, “flog a dead horse,” Obama did not apologize. He tried to cover his azz with some wishy-washy “I could have calibrated my words differently.” (You know, since we morons actually think “stupid” means “stupid.”) Obama should apologize UNCONDITIONALLY and take back his stupid, racist comment. But he won’t, because he’s the wise, post-racial healer.
Gates was arrested for a crime he did not commit and the officer knew it. The officer detained Gates without cause and refused to provide id therefore he acted stupidly.
Obama shouldn’t have appoligized.
If you think the cop was in the right, then you have no right to complain when you are unlawfully detained.
flog a dead horse– when and where did BO apologize? Has he said “I’m sorry” or “I was wrong” yet?? What does I should have re-calibrated word mean? You re-calibrate instruments or measuring devices. It sounds like he was trying to say ‘My statement (that police acted stupidly) was correct, but I just got the wrong shade of nuance.’ I don’t see how that’s an apology; can you please explain better?
The cop is a liar!! Cop’s written report full of fiction and disinformation..Cop should be fired!!!
This whole thing was a set up starting with the planted question at the Obamacare
presser. Only thing was, I think it sort of Back fired and now people who did
not pay attention to the healthcare spew realize that they had better start
paying attention. How come Barry didn’t go after Barbara Boxhead and her comments
to Mr. Alford?
It’s time to reclaim what was once a beautiful land. Our cities are being turned into third-world slums. Our politics is a circus. Our [re]education system is a joke. Our borders are non-existent.
The majority is the majority for a reason. Without a European identity, this country will fall to ruins. Every white knows it, but is afraid to speak for fear of being stigmatized and demonized.
Cops always making excuses for their incompetence..Always shooting unarmed Black males and then having the audacity to seek pity from taxpayers for thier clusters..This cop should be fired ASAP for filing a false report!!!
Notice how liberals say it’s over, lets move on. It’s clear that when you’re caught red handed (as a liberal) you want it to end. BUT if the shoe were on the other foot, they would beat this thing to death blasting conservatives, whites, police officers anybody they can spew their garbage over. It’s getting old this double standard. We won’t have equality until racist like wright, Obungler and gates go away……
Hey flogged, you forgot to link your website link to black panthers association.
Obama ratcheted this up by his racist and inflamatory remarks. He acted “stupidly”
Gates, much like Obama’s many other associations are race baiters nothing more!
So much for Martin Luthers wish that Americans would be judged based on their character and not the color of their skin.
If Obama and his like minded racists wish to get beyond the racist rhetoric, then I suggest he and his bloggers get beyond the divisions that tear us apart. This is not limited to race but also includes the division of citizens based on gender, class envy, and character assasination which the dems use daily as shown yet again by this latest race baiting issue!
Alan the majority are cowards got butt kicked in Vietnam , Iraq ..Nobody pays attention to penis envy white maes rants..get lost you coward..WHite males bravo..what a joke..lol,lol,lol..All white males do is beat up thier wives and bomb federal buidings with child care centers and tryshot each other in schools and sell sex on the internet…The majority yeah right..BOO!
Orinocle – Put the crack pipe down and step back slowly. BTW – Cops don’t shoot unarmed Black males to seek pity from taxpayers. They do it for fun! That my friend, is just as stupid as your comments. Quit using your nutsack as a brain.
Not enough info but the 911 caller who was accused of racial profiling for placing the 911 call was definitely not race influenced. The race baiters get called on the carpet again. So the story of the little boy who cried wolf will now be replaced by little Barack who cried racism. No way Obama apologizes to whitey.
Obama was 1000000000000000000000% correct stupid cops!!! Now we find out cops was a liar in his written report!!!
In response to dead horse: If I were the oficer, I would not want to sit and drink a beer with two racists, especially if one is POTUS. The left has been complaining for years about racist presidents. Well, now you really have one, only he is one of your own. It became newsworthy when your boy opened his fat mouth and demeaned the nation’s police officers. All of his B S over the past two years is just that. He is a run of the mill race hustler like Jackson / Sharpton only with a more polished exterior. Its all well and good. At least the American people all have a clearer understanding of where they stand with this clown. Enjoy the next 3 1/2 years.
Obama’s offer for the police officer to come to the whitehouse for a little 2 on 1 session with the president was an absurd offer. Probably something Obama learned from his days in Chicago licking the feet of old Weathermen bombers.
If Obama was sincere he would have asked to come and sit in on roll call at the Cambridge station.
Obama’s true feeling are a reflection of his lifelong association with the radical left including Rev Wright. It’s also interesting that the Obama campaign waited until he was running for president to finally pay a decades old collection of parking tickets.
Whites folks need to start genulfecting to Obama now..he is your ruler..tee hee.. Worship him you losers..tee hee
orinocle, Are you jsut trying to be funny or are you really a TOTAL MORON.
A case could be made that the professor was primed and ready, is always primed and ready, has devoted his life to race matters, has a vested interest in coaching others to engage by way of highlighted examples to indulge in reactive aspects of hatred for “whitey” as he has used that term, but calling it history, probably wants to see racism first and foremost, might even be in love with it because it’s a definition he doesn’t want to let go of because then what… and Professor Gate’s is therefore hair-trigger ready at the presence of a white police officer to defend what he might actually cherish as his life’s-blood definition. His racial animus is probably so much a part of him that it was already at the surface ready to unleash in verbal assault.
Now here comes the white police officer ( “whitey” to use the distinguished professor’s documented term) to a home that has a front door broken in, supporting the call that a crime is in progress. The officer is a public servant putting his life on the line. How many free wheeling verbally rambling political commentators know what it feels like to be of community service in this regard? One gun shot away from your loved ones as widowed and fatherless. Two men reported breaking into a home… You wanna check it out?
I don’t believe the police officer responding to a potential crime scene, with nerves a bit heightened but steady just the same, deserved a livid racial berating because he wasn’t black. How about “guilty of investigating a potential crime scene while being white” ? I’d like to see the media cover that angle. Asking for verification is a necessary part of completing an investigation. You can’t take a person’s word for it because it isn’t verification for the documentation. So it’s procedure just like scanning an 80 year old white lady at the airport.
When Gates followed Sgt Crowley out of the house continuing his hate-filled tirade, he was pushing his conduct. Sgt. Crowley who has taught racial sensitivity courses to police officers,probably would have had less reservation arresting a white person. Cuffs are also procedure in an arrest, and the cuffs in front were showing deference.
Is anyone surprised that Obama and Gates are lying?
Look “Flog ur Pony”, The GOP did write the words on Obama’s teleprompter. If any party generated the spin
on this story it is the Obama camp trying to divert the focus of the bankrupting of America through Nationalized
Healthcare and Cap & Trade legislation.
Don’t confuse the facts. Typical liberal, Front page accusations, Page D-8 retraction and apology.
No Change at all!
No more stupid, self important, 11th grade educated, cousin marrying tool then an american police officer. I truly hate america and I am in glee every day I read about more evidence of its continuing fall into oblivion. Now what happened to the idea your home is your castle, I guess that doesn’t count when some pathetic minimum wage earning cop demands you show id, you show id even if you are in your own living room at the time. Why do you american morons still pretend you guys have a constitution. You continue this lie despite the fact police in Texas legally seize money from motorists and use it to go to Hawaii, airport guards can interrogate passengers about where their money comes from and the fact that if you lie to a federal officer of any kind about absolutely anything who shows up on your doorstep you can go to jail for a decade. America is a lie and a con job.
Quote from Gates’ Yale U application:
“As always, whitey now sits in judgment of me, preparing to cast my fate. It is your decision either to let me blow with the wind as a nonentity or to encourage the development of self. Allow me to prove myself.”
Mr. Gates you have “proven” yourself to be obsessed with race and have used it to make your fortune in life! Too bad for you that you met an honest cop in this scam!
That cop needs to sue that nasty creep into the ground. And as for Obama–I voted for him–won’t happen again.
Obama used this situation to try to score some cheap points on race issues. He showed himself to be a racist. I wish I knew this before the election.
Is Barack Obama a racist? Barack called his grandmother a typical white person. What is a typical white person? Barack attends Wright’s Black Liberation Theology church that spews racist hate toward whites. Barack not knowing any of the facts sais the police acted stupidly. Barack Obama is a racist and a Marxist period.
What a bunch of hypocrites! A guy is in a compound in Waco boogering children and you guys are upset when the feds decide to enter without waiting to let him finish “writing his bible.” At Ruby Ridge you are upset because they actually went after a guy who committed a felony, and shot at them when they came to arrest him. Now, we have a black prof who committed NO CRIME, was in his OWN HOUSE, and proves it, although with an attitude, and you are ALL FOR the policeman who would not identify himself! If this had been a black cop you would be questioning his “attitude” and not the “libertarian” white guy. Obama was right in the first place. Once it had been established it was his place and there had been no crime he should have left. It would be perfectly alright to mutter “what a jerk” as he left, but cops get attitude all the time and do not arrest, so it WAS “stupid.” I watch “COPS” and see then ignore far worse confrontations in every episode. Cops CAN be blustery pricks with a bullying attitude and we all know it. This guy was not that, but we were not there to hear the tone or se the posture of this guy. I really HOPE there IS an audio tape, and I think Gates does also. We do need a teachable moment here, but of course THAT is last thing you people want.
This why cops deserve zero respect..They lie on police reports..they create explosive confrontations..They are welfare cheats on the taxpayers dole hiding behind badges seeking pity from folks..I have more respect for 7-11 security guards at least they know ehere the duct tape and plastic is in the store..tee hee
Barrack Obama and orinocle Hate White People – In Barry’s OWN WORDS – I don’t know all the facts! (No kidding!)
TecumsehSherman – Read the report – the SERGEANT did identify himself – he operated within the purview of the penal law and his department guidelines. Don’t try to will this by any means – having been a police officer for 26 years – I can attest that these BS complaints where the “supposed” victim is an angel is BS. Did you also know that this house was just recently burglarized? Thus Gates could not secure his door properly – hmmmmm. If this was just explained to the reporting officer thsi could have been avoided – the problem is, Gates has been waiting all his life for such a moment – and it backfired!
orinocle – WOW! You’re a moron!
This cop would be lethal at a white soccer mom tupper ware party..
TecumsehSherman, the news reports seem to indicate that Sergeant Crowley identified himself the first and second times Professor Gates demanded that he do so, but became “surprised and confused” after the demand was shouted for the third time. The reports I’ve read do not say that Crowley refused to identify himself even at that point, but it seems likely Prof. Gates was belligerent and not listening.
This is a perfect example of why people don’t get involved when they see something that is possibly wrong. The neighbor was only trying to be helpful and is now being portrayed as a racist. So sad that Mr. Gates was so angry and hateful instead of being grateful someone was trying to protect his home. Kudos to the police who have an impossible job.
We heard that Gates said (and Obama agreed) even through the trouble this has caused we have a “teaching moment” for race relations…
The Teacher has been named, and hes is Jeremiah Wright.
Obama the racist and his racist friend. The neighbor calls the cops worried the man’s
(free) house (from Harvard) is getting broken into and gets branded as a racist.
Our president needs to apologize to all law enforcement officers on live, primetime, national tv… just as publicly as he condemned them. He also needs to tell the American people that “everyone would” NOT “be angry” if an officer responded to a possible robbery in progress at our residence. He needs to tell the American people that the proper response to an officer protecting our property is grattitude, not anger. If he doesn’t do this very publicly, none of us should ever allow our children to be in the room when he holds another live news conference. He sets a very bad, if not dangerous example. He basicly told blacks that they don’t have to cooperate with police… they can blindly accuse them of racism as he did very publicly.
Why would anybody white or Black respect a liar cop like this one?? why? he lied on the police report..he lacks skills to difusse anyhtimng..what a loser he is
What Obama ment when he said: “I could have calibrated my words differently,” is “I didn’t know you Republicans were so soft. And next time I will be more aware of your delicate sensabilities.”
I don’t know if you guys noticed this but THE CHARGES WERE DROPPED. THERE WAS NO CRIME. THE OFFICER ENDANGERED THAT MANS LIFE (people get killed in prisons) FOR NO REASON!
Hey orinocle, if you can stop acting like a penile implant long enough to get your facts straight you would see through spin and base your conclusion on facts.
Obama has a track record for implementing reperations to impune the white race. He attempts to load the courts with racists, he spent twenty years under the tutalidge of a racist, he’s a closet muslim, he’s an illigitimate president, his wife was never proud of America until her “boy” was elected, his poll numbers are dropping faster then a rock as REAL Americans discover the reality of who he is and where he is taking this nation! His policies are being rejected left and right by the American majority!
Face the facts and witness his demise!
Now that we have the tapes, it is 100% clear that this was an incident entirely motivated by racism & racial profiling.
Unfortunately, the racists are Gates & Obama.
Gates has different agenda. He is not different from other race hustler. If there are not conflict with race, their bread and butter will be gone and their relevancy diminish. They have to keep flagging away racial discrimination imaginary or not. Gates could not stand the fact that a white man looks at him in the eyes when Gates consider himself superior. Gates comes here as the biggest racist in this incident.
Crowley should just forget the beer and run for Congress. We need good people to serve and replace all the old crazies in Congress like Barney Frank, Ted Kennedy and John Kerry.
Obama is a complete jackass.
He is second guessing a policeman who was on the spot when he has no more evidence than the suspect was BLACK! The man (BLACK OR WHITE) should have complied with the officer until he had shown proof of residency. A complaint was made and the officer is REQUIRED to follow up.
Is anyone besides me concerned that we have a president that can’t think before acting, even at the most basic level? Maybe Obama should spend a little more time reading the bills he is pushing so hard rather than screwing over some cop trying to do his duty. The cop is doing a FAR BETTER job than Obama is!!!
America has become a joke nation led by a joke president and a joke congress and soon the joke will be on you as you are taxed into oblivion. (to the tune of “Send in the Clowns”)
To FLog a Dead Horse. You are utterly rediculous to think Obama apologized for mis-stating his UNTRUE remarks. He apologized for how his words triggered the media blitz. This sorry b u t t did not apologize for being wrong, wrong wrong. THE tapes will shut him up and stupid Ahole gates.
Gates wrote in his YALE APPL ICATION______
“As always, WHIT EY now sits in judgment of me, preparing to cast my fate. It is your decision either to let me bl ow with the wind as a nonentity or to encourage the development of self. Allow me to prove myself.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“I was all set to become the little prince of that almost all-wh ite school,” he wrote.
He was an A student who loved history and geography and would practice the way African leaders’ names were pronounced by following the newscasts of Edward R. Murrow and Walter Cronkite. He gave the valedictory address at high school and graduated summa cum laude from Yale, where he majored in history.
To his eventual embarras sment, he wrote in his Yale application:
“As always, wh itey now sits in judgment of me, preparing to cast my fate. It is your decision either to let me bl ow with the wind as a nonentity or to encourage the development of self. Allow me to prove myself.”
Suppose the police left Gates in his enraged state and he killed someone.
The police are not social workers and psychologists.

Obama should slapp this cop again with his words and next time call me a liar..Cops do not deserve any apologies or any submission..Most ate incompetent and arrive when the crime is over.. most are drunks, white abusers, many shoot themsleves and other cops..They are pitful in they are often afraid of teens and they always are whinning and seeking atta boys from people..
Gates is a political contributor to the Obama candidacy and a well-known racial history activist re African Americans. When he applied for Yale, he stated that he probably would be judged by his color and denied admission..in his APPLICATION LETTER. They obviously let him in to prevent a huge lawsuit!
The man is plenty book smart. But he is a coniving self dealing elitist opportunist. He sure got Obama to go on his record for future speaking engagements and sale of future books.
Disgusting misuse of power on Harvard professor and POTUS together. Welcome to the administration of racial harmony.

IS THAT YOU GIBBS?
“ENOUGH! Breitbart is just gonna run this crap into the ground, right?”
Of course they would have never done that with Bush, right?
The election of Obama proves just how stupid Americans have become. Spend huge sums to get out of debt, drive companies out of business to encourage prosperity, support homosexuality and the murder of helpless babies to promote morals, squander our wealth on illegals to gain their respect, exorcise all religious values from the public in the name of liberty.
We would have been better off electing Erkle.
Gates and President Obama owe the officer and the Cambridge Police Dept. an apology. Gates can apologize privately because he was an idiot in a fairly private context. But Obama needs to apologize on national television because he insulted the police officer on national television.
Wow Ron Orf. You left out quite a bit about Waco and Ruby Ridge. Is that because you only know what fits on your que cards? Read up on it then write back.
POTUS does not care about the rights of white firefighters or policemen. He is the one who automatically assumed the African American, elitist college professor was right. Who is acting stupidly and racist?

Cop’s legacy in USA;
1. Impotent ate 911
2. Did nothing about Tim MCveigh and his thugs
3. Did nothing while catholic priests assaulted kids
4. Cops obess over teens with saggin pants while rapists play
5. Arrest tough dangerous and lethal black middle age male in his own home!!
6. Cops always whinning seeking pity and atta boys for being worthless while criminals rule
Orinocle Your statements are racist and hate filled. You are the kind of liberal that deserves nothing in this world. Shame you were not born in the late 1700s so you could get to experience slavery in a Muslim Country, which the African tribes that captured other African natives and sold them into slavery send many of their victims. Then, you might have appreciation for the GOOD PARTS of being an American rather that just angry insults.
Ron Orf July 27th, 2009 – 1:51 pm
WTF?! I’m good with Waco and Ruby Ridge – they were both long overdue. The Cop did Identify himself and he was standing at the door in the broad daylight in uniform – HELLO!?
And a Libertarian Cop would never say on camera that he was behind Obama 110% – so not sure where that came from – whatever!
He did try to leave and the Racist Professor kept crying about being a black man in America! Waa! Waa!
The Aleged President is Black In AMERICA! Get over yourselves!
I watch “Cops”???? LOL! Now I see where you got your LAW DEGREE! LOL! Well I watched the news about the Black Panthers with sticks out in front of voting offices during the Elections – so I think Black Guys can be angry and racial.
There have been many teachable moments before now smart guy – it’s guys like Sharpton, Jackson, and Gates and his ilk that have kept Black Americans down for many unneeded years.
Wake up and then stand up. And if that doesn’t makes sense I’ll say in Ebonics:
“Free your mind and your a$$ will follow!”
Cop’s legacy in USA;
No time for White citizens because of so much criminal elements in black communities. That is how white taxpayers subsidize blacks.
anticommie..you figured my posts out..stop obessing over me and deal with the truth better yet call 911 or report me to homeland security….lol,lol,,lol
Sadly, this incident has most definately set race relations back at least two decades — and that is because African-American pontificators quickly embraced an outdated, 1960’s-style whining mentality which incorrectly concluded that a “white” complainant (and according to the Boston Herald, the complainant is not white, but is Portuguese and of darker olive skin) had complained only because of race.
We now know that this was a citizen making a sincere, honest report to the police; we know the police responded expediently; and we know that Professor Gates acted like a pompous jerk in response to a police sergeant merely asking routine questions that would be asked of any of us.
How can a police officer “profile” when he or she is dispatched to a location? The real problem, as demonstrated by Gates, is that even purportedly professional African-Americans have great difficulty simply co-existing in a diverse world. The only teaching moment is one in which Gates is the student.
Obama was right, as president he should have calibrated his remarks.
But it WAS stupid to arrest Gates for disorderly conduct.
In several cases, the courts in Massachusetts have considered whether a person is guilty of disorderly conduct for verbally abusing a police officer. In Commonwealth v. Lopiano, a 2004 decision, an appeals court held it was not disorderly conduct for a person who angrily yelled at an officer that his civil rights were being violated. In Commonwealth v. Mallahan, a decision rendered last year, an appeals court held that a person who launched into an angry, profanity-laced tirade against a police officer in front of spectators could not be convicted of disorderly conduct.
That’s way I hate that Obama waded into this situation.Gates will more than likely let it go instead of suing, out of deference to Obama.
So Massachusetts law clearly provides that Gates did not commit disorderly conduct.
The Cambridge Police should be training their officers to know the difference between legal and illegal conduct. What Gates did was probably not so smart — in general, be nice to people carrying guns — but it wasn’t disorderly conduct. At least not in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
That explains why the charges against Gates were dropped. It wasn’t because the police were trying to defuse the situation. It was because Gates had done nothing illegal.
On the 911 tape just released,Gates was not heard ranting on the tape as was reported.
Another thing I find odd,usually a racist wont marry someone out of his or her own race.
Henry Louis Gates was married to Sharon Lynn Adams,a white women.
This story will not have legs no matter how the GOP try to make it so in order to try and hurt Obama.
Sorry guys looked like you are foiled again.Just stick with the Birther stuff.

1. MIA during 911
2. MIA during Tim mcveigh
3. MIA while priests assualt kids
4. MIA when a crime takes place
5. MIA when you really need them
6. Shallow heroes always seeking pity and affirmation for nothing..
Just the Facts –
Hey Brittany – Real republicans would say anyone who votes against someone because of their color is a racist and they are wrong.
But we also say that anyone who votes for a person (like Obama voters) just because of his color is equally racist and equally wrong.
Barrack Obama Hates White People
After attempting to destroy Sergeant Crowley’s career over a fraud, Gates and Obama now want to move on.
The charges against Gates should be reinstated and he should be prosecuted. Failure to do so puts police at risk.
Sergeant Crowley should proceed separately with a lawsuit against Gates.
Since Gates has proven himself to be a racist fraud, Harvard University should take the same action as was taken against Ward Churchill by the University of Colorado.
Finally, Obama is neck deep in this. Sergeant Crowley should invite Obama and Gates to have a beer, but not at the White House, where all sorts of propaganda will be constructed to make it look like Crowley has been taught a “lesson” by the self-appointed arbiters of all things race in America (Obama and Gates).
It looks like our racist POTUS got outted by his own rush to racist judgment.
So much for “post-racial.”
Looks like you can take the POTUS out of Rev. Wright’s church, but you cannot
take the Rev. Wright out of the POTUS. Sad.
Too bad he has to see the world through his all encompassing prejudice.
Orinocle I figured you out first. Simple. Still, how do you get to use a computer on the internet while you are doing hard time in prison for assaulting police officers and beating up women, painting gang grafitti, tokin on a joint, and listening to hiphop while dancing in your sags.
Great life. Great heritage. Obama is not one of you. He is an elitist, and hates low life bum blacks. He just uses their votes and their unemployed to register voters through ACORN.
You are why whites dislike a lot of blacks. You have an attitude problem, boy.
Cops overated, inflated keystone clowns..Yoyos with guns and penis envy issues…
Cops always late arrivals
Cops always begin for pity
Cops worthless clowns with badges and guns..
I sure hope this gets resolved soon, otherwise I may start stereotyping old black institutionalized marxists as racists.
TO – Just The Facts July 27th, 2009 – 2:08 pm
Henry Louis Gates married Sharon Lynn Adams as a power trip. They are currently divorced – probably because he thought his wife was a racist. Hell based on this guys writtings and speeches he probably hated himself for being with “Whitey”.
And just remember Barrack Obama Hates White People
I think the combination of Whalen’s statement that she never extended the individuals were black and that Sgt. Crowley falsified a police report shutter this case down to police misconduct which warrants a firing. Crowley violated a citizens rights, regardless of his skin color, and utilized despicable tactics to cover his trail. It is clear Crowley understood the statute of disorderly conduct and that he had to legally take the tongue lashing from Gates while in his home. By requesting backup after determining Gates was the resident means he had made the decision to arrest Gates at that juncture while inside his house despite evidence that Gates was the owner. He then baited Gates out of the house in order to make an arrest that could be reviewed as lawful, as any arrest in the home would have been unlawful and he could be fired for such misconduct. Unfortunately, this has nothing to do with race and got mixed up with racial bias because of Crowley’s actions to cover his track on his abuse of power by falsely noting in his police report that he was seeking 2 black males when he was seeking 2 large bodied males, of which Gates didn’t fit the description. Hopefully, his firing will come shortly.

But tell me, are you Gibbs or Nifong?
The Messiah and the Professor not only owe an apology to the officer, but the Professor also owes one to the officer’s mama.

Republican plan for lowering the budget:
Stage 1:
Put saltpeter into all crack cocaine and give it away free in all inner cites.
Stage 2:
Start turkey shoot tournament contests in all inner cities on Saturday nights and invite all gangs to participate.
Problem solved.
The most common form of racial profiling is a black guy assuming that the white guy must be a racist. Gates is guilty of this form of racism and Obama is guilty of this form of racism. As the facts come out the two stupid parties are Obama and Gates. As the history of Gates unfolds since before now hardly anybody knew him, he has been an anti-white racist for decades. Same as Obama. If you bother to read Obama’s histroy you will discover that he has been a racist for decades as well.
WOW TIM DALY! All that typing and it was completely devoid of any facts! I’m actually surprised you got names correct!
Unbelievable!
Get over it folks.. He WON the election. He is the PRESIDENT. Live with it or do the next best thing….you know take a dirt nap.
You would not know if you are racist because to you it is a natural thing and for that I pity you.
Tim Daly NICE TRY, NO CIGAR. Gates is an elitist snob aggitating black man with a huge chip on his shoulder. This event MADE HIS FUTURE giving him material for more books, and a great publicity shot for public speeches. He is a well-known opportunist. Just like Obama.
Obama
“With Sonia Sotomayor tilting the balance on the court,” he said, “some day police departments nationwide will be staffed with officers who know a Harvard intellectual when they see one breaking into a house. To paraphrase Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., I have a dream that one day a man will not be judged by his apparently illegal actions, but by the color of his skin and the content of his curriculum vitae.”
Problem solved:
Invite Gates to judge the Saturday night turkey shoots!
The bottom of the barrel has been reached judging by the quality of Odumbo defenders that are still defendind him.
Realistically this sounds like business being done as it should be done. There are a lot of hateful posters above who are going strictly by what the original outcry was stating, not the reality of the actual recordings. And why? They are motivated by hatred and divisiveness. Sad.
The police did what they were supposed to do. The individual in question should have thanked them for trying to protect his home.
Steve – The next best thing to do is hold of of your Liberal Poster Children Accountable and get them voted out by shining the light on the treason.
And we’re doing just that – 6 months – how’s those poll numbers looking to you? LOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!1
Obama, our last and only black president I hope because blacks are calling this the wrong way here.
This is Water Gate for B.O. aka B.S., own stupidity. Professor Gates just had a break in at his house; the reason why he could not use his front door. And when a thoughtful female neighbor witnessed a break in at his side door, she called the police.
This affirmative action scholar’s confrontational behavior with the officer; at first refusing to identify himself, then going into an endless irate shouting at the police; and warned twice, by the officer to calm down. Professor Gates followed the officer out the door still shouting obscenities at the officer, like “your white ass mama ill meet outside”; just as Mass. Senator J. Kerry’s will known plea “do you know who I am” yes indeed we do now Professor Gates, you’re an angered black man (don’t mess with) going no where fast in life. You over stated your affirmative action credentials, insulting the very person sworn to protect you, no matter your blackness or ignorance.
Gates you cheap s.o.b., fix your front door, maybe this would not have happened, unless you planed and knew it would go down this way. Now that’s what I call affirmative action Professor Gates, causing and initiating a racial incident, a black president made a judgment upon, calling the officer stupid. Yes he was stupid for protecting your useless black ass, push it further Professor and a lie detector will condemn you and all your black sympathizers, in a court of law.
[...] Cambridge Officer/Dispatch Audio: ‘He Is Not Cooperative’ Filed Under: Latest News [...]
I have still NOT HEARD the tape of the actual incident, only a phone call from the lady and a call from Sgt. Crowley. IS there an audio of the actual incident as has been implied? I would truly like to hear the tone and tenor of the confrontation before I make a judgement on how big a jerk Gates was being.
Paul: my main concern about Ruby Ridge and Waco is that their were valid warrants for the arrests in both incidents, but the defendants would not comply, or worse, threaten to shoot whoever served them. IF I have an outstanding parking ticket and the police come to my house, I HAD BETTER let them in. Now, you guys are all upset at Gates even though HE DID let him in and was shown to have committed no crime. Being a jerk is NOT a reason to arrest. Quit beating this dead horse. The arrest WAS stupid, and you would be calling it just that if the situation was reversed. You are also assuming Gates is a race baiter, which was my initial feeling, but I have looked at his NOVA series and see none of that. HE WAS cranky and he p@%#d off the cop, pure and simple. Both were wrong, just like Obama said. Smart guy, that Obama.
Justthefacts – The courts provided that the idiot in the other situation was not guilty of disorderly conduct, not that Gates who was in a different situation couldn’t be arrested for disorderly conduct. Every situation is unique and it’s up to the courts, not you, to decide who is guilty.
Just because he is married to a white woman, doesn’t make him non-racist.
I wonder how “Prejudent” Obama and Professor of Making Things Up “Afro E. Neuman” are crafting their beer teaching moment to tap-dance around this?
I really didn’t learn anything I didn’t already know about Barry Soetoro,he’s a racist POS.
Let me calibrate my words carefully, “Our President is a bigot.”
Any questions?
I didn’t think there would be.
Gates is too esteemed to fix his own door lock…and the house belongs to Harvard anyway…so what does he care…he takes care of the place like the Chicago South Side folks take care of their public provided housing.
Can maybe educate the man, but the bottoms of his feet and palms of his hands still tell the truth about this angry monkey.
This is why I think the majority of black people are distasteful. The majority of them are racist and are never too proud to use “white guilt.” Please, its been 150 yrs since slavery. I truly believe that out of 100 black people there might be one that is successful and tolerable. Also, by being successful, I mean doesn’t turn to drugs, crime, and having welfare babies. Also, before you call me racist, I live among blacks and hispanics. While not giving me the right to judge them, which I am not doing, it does give me the right to state an observed opinion. My observed opinion being that I dislike the majority of black people, their two greatest heroes, George Washington Carver (A man who only taught us that if you crush up peanuts and put butter in them it tastes good) and MLK (A man who simply swindled all other races into believing blacks could amount to anything) were/are over rated and only great in the context of their race. In closing, I truly believe that if you gave a bunch of white people gun powder and waited a year they would have guns. If you gave a bunch of asian people gun powder and waited a year they would have fireworks. And if you gave a bunch of black people gun powder and waited a year you’d still have gun powder and a bunch of pregnant women. It is an exercise if futility to believe that any subclassification of the human race, even when various tests have proven lower IQ and general intelligence, would be treated differently based on the above facts. Here’s a way to get the nation out of debt, but all blacks off of welfare. “Think of the children?” Maybe the mothers should have thought about that before sex. “The majority of people on welfare are white.” Yes, but if you factor in the fact that there are fewer blacks in the country as a whole, yet they take up almost half of welfare, you get the idea. In closing, I will never check this post again, so I don’t care if any uppity black people try to defend their race. We will never progress in this country until we realize that we should just be able to hate them because they are stupid, loud and annoying, not because they are black.
most people would be grateful that the police are following up on their well being. I guess Gates thought this was a slam dunk and went into racist mode. Gates is no different than the poverty pimps and Klan with a tan Jackson, Sharpton,Wright, Farakon. It’s also interesting that they throw around the highly offending racist word like the N word in the early south.
Not sure if I heard this right but wasn’t the white officer’s partner a black officer? Or a black cop showed up right as this started?
If that is true funny how that has been left out.
What is this theory that people can’t be arrested in their own homes that I see some people talking about? Is this true? Then why don’t criminals hang out in their homes to avoid arrest? Can someone shed light on this?
They still can’t get over the fact that 300,000 plus white men died to free the black man……
Wow! The hysteria of orinocle, Ron Orf and the other Obots is really off the wall. orinocle’s fevered repetition of his moronic charges shows the leftists are starting to panic. They’re desperately shoveling sh*t out there as fast as they can to try to alter the narrative. They remind me of the scene in “Inherit the Wind” where William Jennings Bryan looses it. Watch the entire clip, or see orinocle (oops, I mean Bryan) go off the rails about 8:00.

Defending President Half-Cocked can’t be fun.
Two possibilities:
First, that Obama really didn’t know the facts before he took sides and commented on national TV, in which case, it shows that he makes judgements without considering the FACTS — a very disturbing trait for anyone especially for someone who holds a lot of power.
Second, that Obama was well aware of the facts but went ahead and impugned the character and reputation of a police officer who was only doing his job. THIS IS A VERY SCARY trait for someone holding the highest office of the land. It was morally reprehensible to play the race card and falsely brand someone a racist when Obama knew full well that it wasn’t about race at all. This could have ruined the cop’s life and that would have been fine with Obama. Thank God, there were witnesses and recordings.
Either way, this whole incident shows what kind of a man is now occupying the highest office of the land. To those of you who adore the man, please open your eyes and look a little deeper (into the “content of his character”).
In the police report, Crowley says Whalen told him she saw “two black males with backpacks on the porch.” People who have come to the defense of the veteran cop have noted that Crowley did not presume the “suspect” was black, but rather was told so.
Reached yesterday evening by phone, Crowley said, “Obviously, I stand behind everything that’s in the police report. It wouldn’t be in there if it wasn’t true.”
Fast forward to today,,,,,,,,,,
The 911 caller through her attorney denies saying she saw two black men..she is also denying speaking to Sgt. Crowley on the scene. Clearly someone is lying..
But I guess policemen are angels, they do not fix reports to suit their version of the story. We have 2 participants in the story basically saying Sgt Crowley is lying. The 911 caller denies speaking to Sgt Crowley and Gates denying he was unruly.
But I guess anything to soothe the conservatives angst of having a Black president is good. Love it or leave it..He is the PRESIDENT.

Please remember, the only reason anyone is talking about this is because our president said something about it; the consequence would be synonymous to Oprah leaving her mark on the situation. I would implore everyone to realize that aside from the enjoyement of debate, no truly gives much heed to the issue at all. So, was it wise for President Obama to comment on the circumstance? Most likely not, because now we have a nation pretending empathy over an issue that truly is a cover for the want for debate.

It is one thing to be a flaming liberal….it is another thing entirely for a white professor faculty to get flung into the mud monkey dung pit by one of your own.

Dispatcher: We have a report of a possible break in at the Gates residence. We just received a call from a concerned resident that two humans are breaking in.
Officer: Any description
Dispatcher: Let me consult our legal defense team before I respond.
Officer: Understood
(after two hours of negotiation)
Dispatcher: After consulting with internal affairs, it is suggested that we refrain from stereotyping the suspect. In other words your on your own.
Officer: Understood
Officer: Dispatch I have arrived at the residence and there are to humans gaining entry by force.
Dispatch: All available officers, please respond to the Gates residence for an active B and E.

Hear hear! Reparations? Uhhhh no your reparations are in the graves of the 300,000 plus Union soldiers who died to free you!
Move on, get over it, GROW UP!
When asked about the incident by the reporter, the proper response from President Obama should have been something like this: “I do not have the facts and more importantly, this incident is not to be decided by the office of the president. That is why we have local police, sheriffs departments and the like who are better suited to investigate and comment on this type of issue. Next question….”
The teaching moment is we should never, never, never entrust these people with power again.

I couldn’t of said it any better! Bravo!
To all the Obots claiming that the dismissal of charges against Gates proves anything, there are several posts on the internet by cops pointing out that arresting somebody having a melt-down is exactly SOP. The charges are almost always dismissed after the person has had his or her trip to the station. If you libs knew how the real world operates you’d save yourself a lot of knicker-twisting.

If President Obama does not muster the decency to say, “I am sorry,” now that the facts are known, I will do all that I can to support the republicans in 2010.

Hey, Flog on a Dead Horse, you beat Bush with any handy stick for 8 years and it was ALL NEWS. This is news too, even though it makes your man look bad. DEAL with it. If you can’t take it, don’t dish it.
Obama commented that he didn’t have all the facts in the case, then proceeded to say the Cambridge Police
“acted stupidly.” His prejudice was on display, and is only tolerated by the Main Stream Media because of
his skin color. You see, only caucasians can really be prejudiced.
Kara,
Just to clarify, Portuguese is a EUROPEAN nationality. Portuguese people are CAUCASIONS… WHITE people. Greeks, many Italians, Spaniards, etc. ALSO have “olive skin”…..
Not all white people have pink skin and blonde hair.
ron orf sais: “smart guy that Obama” ROFLMAO, so he’s supposed to be a lawyer? Lawyers do not comment on anything before the facts are known. Some lawyer. By the way where are your law school transcripts BO? I’d like to see how you passed.
The only one who was confrontational and racist was Gates, from the moment the officer spoke
to him. He immediately pulled the race card AND insulted the officer with the Mama comment!
Then to make matters worse he goes on CNN spewing a bunch of BS about the black man
in America and Obama on National TV furthers their racist agenda. The officer was responding
to a call, with no “racial agenda” at all in mind. When he got to the house he had NO idea
who or what he might encounter and Gates acted completely inappropriate. It was the
officer who showed patience, calm and equanimatiy. Gates and Obama need to go on
National TV and apologize to “whitey”! Obama could not wait to chime in!
I voted for Obama and was al for change but I think we got screwed. I am very unhappy with the actual change taking place. I feel like we got the short end of the stick with this mental midget adn now we as a nation are suffering greater than ever. I should have listened to my conservative friends when they were telling me what Obama was really like and now because of people like me we have the most dangerous/stupid man in office the USA has ever had.
Where was TOTUS when Obama really needed him? Had TOTUS been there, he’d surely have told Obama to just sit down and shut up. If TOTUS had not been on a break, Obama would never have “acted stupidly” and cried racism without having all the facts. I just don’t trust TOTUS anymore. Just a week or so ago he had a complete breakdown on the job and now this………..
“As always, whitey now sits in judgment of me, preparing to cast my fate.”
Gates, quoted verbatim from his application to Yale.
Post-racial, my @ss! This racist idiot has set race relations back a full decade.
And, I died for this?
Back in the 60’s the chant was “the whole world’s watching.” I believe it is
“the whole world’s laughing” nowadays. But, hey, I don’t all the facts and really
don’t know what happened, but its obvious Prof. Gates acted stupidly.
At least the racist Professor Gates didn’t say Sgt. Crowley was a M….F…ing honky cop. When they get educated they drop the ebonics, thanks for that. I ax you, was Gates house the yellow one with the old sofa on the front porch and the old rusted car parked in front on blocks on Martin Luther King Boulevard? The cops should have known when they rolled on the call they were about to be met with a angry black man with an attitude and called out the S.W.A.T. team for their safety. Obama should stay in the Blackhouse and tell Axelerod and Rahm to stop planting questions at his press conferances to make the Racist in Chief look good.
Everybody knows he depends on the teleprompter for the correct answers.
They need to remove the masking tape from Bidens mouth and push him back out on stage. It dosn’t get any better than this….

Crypts from the grave-I couldn’t have stated it better myself!
Barry Sortero was raised to HATE WHITE PEOPLE!
I can see with the few posters here that you can have Gates come out and say it was his fault and they will still blame the cop, you can’t debate ignorance. And as for the the couple of people who are just now realizing what barack is, SHAME on you. The Information was out there, but you chose not vett properly. Everything that Barack has done in his life has been against “WHITEY” Too bad it is too late and now he is killing our economy, killing our jobs and ruining our perfect healthcare. This healthcare thing is just a power grab. I hope you white folks wake up soon……this President has contempt for you. The funny thing is, they are the ones running around screaming racist when they are the ones who are actually racist.
Although I’m a stupid, white, middle-class man I’ve been able to make out that police officers in uniform have a name plate (I’ve been told by others who probably learned it from a wise latina woman (sic) it’s over the right pocket) and a one-of-a-kind number emblazoned (that means “put onto,” I think) on the badge over their left pocket. Perhaps Professor Gates was trying to trick this stupid officer into checking to see whether he had the same name and badge number as he did the day before?
It is small wonder people of all colors get sick and tired of the idiocy of the increasingly shrinking segment of entitled, racist products of popular black culture. Perhaps, and it is my great hope, our children will see the Rev. Wrights and Louis Farrakhans of the world are every bit as evil and irrelevant as the David Dukes.
Why did the dispatcher say there was a “beating” in progress? I didn’t hear anyone but her mention a “beating”.
Hmmm I didnt relize I had to be curtious in my own home or face be arrested. HOW DARE HE
Obama sat in a “whitey” hating church for 20 years! With his babies and wife! NO one sits
in a racist church for 20 years without adhering to it’s beliefs. Most Americans would
never be a member of a White Supremist church! Ever! And if they did they would NOT be
President of the United States. Obama told us all who he was! Some – just enough
to put him over the top, believed otherwise! He is a racist – Gates is a racist.
Obama should take the masking tape off Bidens mouth and push him back out on stage….he couldn’t do any worse.
Looks like Mr. Crowley behaved “stupidly”. As the truth comes out, Obama-haters will have to eat some Crowley.
http://rawstory.com/08/news/2009/07/27/911-calls-of-gates-incident-released/
In his police report, arresting officer Sergeant James Crowley wrote that the caller “went on to tell me that she observed what appeared to be two black males with backpacks on the porch of Ware Street.”
Attorney Wendy Murphy, who represents the 911 caller, Lucia Whalen, said her client never spoke with arresting officer Sgt. James Crowley at the scene.
“Let me be clear: She never had a conversation with Sgt. Crowley at the scene,” Murphy said, according to CNN. “And she never said to any police officer or to anybody ‘two black men.’ She never used the word ‘black.’ Period.”
flog a dead horse, Obama is the one who made it NEWS. He is the fool that without knowing the details gave a race baiting opinion. Pretend for a moment that it had been Bush that made the insensitive statement, the media would cling to the story for years. All Dan Quayle did was spell POTATO incorrectly and he is still the brunt of bad jokes and media bias.
Police need to respond. Obama invited for a beer. Who cares? Gates saw an opportunity to cause a problem and right off, he claimed racial profiling who is a so-called pronounce expert.
Gates is smart enough to know what he want to do.
Sell books or get a book deal. He already wants to write based upon this. He is just another lacky Harvard professor.
Obama never apologized. He did the usual non apology apology. Lord help us if a politician ever really did apologize for their mistake.
Now obama is promoting drinking and smoking the our House.
Its obvious what the LibTards are pushing is they don’t want you to call the police when you witness a crime……unless its white man not paying his taxes even then if he is a Democrat he gets a free pass like Tim TurboTax Geithner
I want to hear the recording of the call Gates made while dealing with the cop. The call in which Gates is purportedly to have said, “Get the chief on the line”.
“YOU DON’T KNOW WHO YOU’RE MESSING WITH”
“YOUR MAMA”
“BLACK MAN IN AMERICA”
Sounds kinda like Obama’s pastor, Reverend Wright. Obama sure has some interesting friends.
Listen I’m a total loser who is sitting in my mama’s basement while she is working using her pc
pc. I really don’t know anything at all about nothing because I’m ignorant!
This is the “change”,just a few from actual bill) we are getting with Obamacare:
Page 30: A government committee will decide what treatments and benefits you get (and, unlike an insurer, there will be no appeals process)
Page 50: All non-US citizens, illegal or not, will be provided with free healthcare services

US News and World report is reporting that Harvard University has slipped from number 1 ranking to 127 behind Arizona State.
What’s missing from this audio? Gates is supposedly yelling so loud as to cause a scene yet he is not
heard on tape except possibly at the very end which is certainly not yelling. Also, why does it end there?
For this to have been disorderly, Gates would have to be making threats of violence in public, well beyond
just being rude to a cop in his own home. I agree that this isn’t a case of racism but is another case of
a cop ocverreacting and improperly using the disorderly charge.
The Tale of Two Racists – The President and the Professor
If “flog a dead horse” thinks Obama apologized, then that commenter also probably believes Obama really is a “new” politician, bipartisan, unifying–even a natural-born citizen. Right. That’s about as comical as believing that Obama and the Democrats have America’s best interests at heart.
BTW: It appears that FADH has gone over some edge, with that rant about the “GOP-led media” and about the late President “Ronnie” Reagan.
And “distracting headlines”? Fool. Likely, Obama planted the question. When it arose, it was the only time during that dreary “news” conference that the Know-Nothing- and Racist-in-Chief actually showed any semblance of being engaged.
He’s one very angry bi-racial — not African-American — man who loathes that half of him that is Caucasian. He will not be satisfied, it appears, until he’s precipitated civil strife.
Clearly, he doesn’t seem to care how that he’s further endangered police officers of all colors, but especially white, and the blacks who see a racist EVERY time they see a white person.
Obama, who also appears to exploit blacks more than he does to serve them, is showing more and more that his pathological megalomania and arrogant and ignorant tongue that expresses that sickness are weapons of mass destruction, division, distraction and delusion..
The sad difference is that when Republicans want something paid attention to, it’s about non-issues like this, trying for impeachment like Ken Star, etc. In other words, they cling to what they see as critical moral issues, but in reality these issues do nothing for the day to day lives of Americans.
I suppose when these are the only things you have to cling to, you will blow anything out of proportion. As stated in other comments, these “gaffes” could be taken from Bush every single day in office.
The left wants this to go away. Their new strategy will be to say “Move on”, “let’s get over it” etc. because it makes the Prof. and BO look bad, so, it’s now time to move on. If this was a case of racial bias by whites though, we’d have to have congressional hearings, and the MSM would be flooding us with all kinds of black activists etc. and trying to incite more racial tension. That’s what they do.
Keep the pressure on for the racist professor to apologize/resign and for BO to issue an apology, and watch the left squirm, don’t give in to their attempts to brush this under the rug.
If I was a Police Officer, Cop to some, I would think twice from responding to circumstances like these. Let the break in happen. When they responded they had no idea who are what these people were. Armed or not they must proceed expecting the unexpected. The Police are treated so lousy in this country but thank God we have them or we would have anarchy.
You know to all you selfrightous idiots who think the police officer overeacted why don’t you
try wearing the uniform for a day. Just try dealing with a%$holes who run their mouth non
stop instead of being poilte and answering the questions directed to you. Your probably the same people who
call customer service and bitch at the poor person trying to do thier job.
Has anyone noticed that the left either says this is a “non issue” or want to move on or they go the other way and attack and suspect the Police Officer. Never let the facts get in the way.
“Obama apologized”
No, he didn’t. By EVERYONE’S account except apparently yours.
“America is now waiting for the GOP-led media”
Exactly what country do YOU live in?
“Think of all the REAL news Americans don’t get when this tired commentary gets repeated over and over and over…”
Most Americans have the common sense to move to a different news source when one doesn’t suit their needs.
End result of all this is, Gates is a racist, born and bred. Obama is a racist, born and bred. The mayor over there is a racist, born and bred. It’s been working that way for 20-30 years now. There is FAR more racism in the black community than in any other. (No, I don’t bother with the whole “African-American” nonsense. 99% of those that like to call themselves that have never been anywhere near the continent, and at best are 3-4 generations removed from it.)
Flog a dead horse: “Obama apologized”. You sir or madam are an outright liar. He has never apologized for anything and isn’t man enough to. He’s just another useless liberal socialist racist coward.
eeentropyyy: “Gates was arrested for a crime he did not commit”. Obviously, you are just as useless as Flog because you don’t know what you’re talking about. Gates, and Gates alone, was causing a public disturbance and yelling racist slurs. He should not only have been arrested but should have been locked up without bail until going to court and then been fined a minimum of $50 million dollars, payable before he’s released directly to Officer Crowley.
Professor Gates shut up….at least Sgt. Crowley didn’t call the S.W.A.T. team
^^^^^^^^ BL ACK politicians admit they are too stup id to read without interpreter alongside!
Gates is on record as smearing whites by calling us ‘whitey’. Let me get this straight: it’s okay for blacks to call whites ‘whitey’, but it’s a horrendous crime to call blacks ‘niggers’! I DON’T THINK SO!
If they want respect, THEY WILL HAVE TO GIVE RESPECT IN RETURN. Otherwise, we’re not going to sit by and let blacks think they can run roughshod over us. If blacks want any kind of credibility, they need to stop blaming their own lack of accomplishments on us. Get off your backsides, go to work like the rest of us and earn your stripes!
Speaking of gaffes”
In June 2008, Obama Falsely Claimed His Father Served In World War II
On May 23, Obama Mistakenly Says He’s In “Sunshine” At Rally In Sunrise, Florida
On May 16, Obama Mistakenly Says He’s In Sioux City At Sioux Falls, SD Rally
On May 13, Obama Mistakenly Said That Arabic Translators Deployed To Iraq Were Needed In Afghanistan, When Afghans Don’t Even Speak Arabic (They Speak Other Languages Including Pashtu, Dari, And Farsi) And Those Fighters That Do Are Shooting At Our Troops, Not Talking To Them.
On May 9, Obama Claimed To Have Visited 57 States.
That’s enough for now.
I blogged about this last Friday. The main purpose of my blog was to say that you have every right to mouth off to a copy in your own home, but it just might not be a good idea. When you pick a fight with cops, then you get one basically.
I got so many HATE comments posted to my blog. Mainly how I was living in my “white prism” and how “all cops” are racist and misuse their authority (my favorite was that no one wanted to hear what I had to say… uh… then stop reading and move on).
I spent the weekend second guessing myself, now I know that they were wrong and I was right.
I’m so glad that they posted the 911 call and the officer’s dispatch audio.
How come Harvard University has a racist professor. Amazing!
It’s obvious to me that the majority of the “whiteys” are past looking at skin color when it comes to choosing a president yet the very president who was chosen let the chip on his shoulder slip out through his mouth just like is buddy Gates did. All I hear is “they both over reacted”, that’s a bunch of BS! Now Obama wants to downplay it and have a beer??? Reverse racism is boiling under the surface everywhere, bounce the news channels and watch the reactions of the black commentators and hosts… so telling. Please Sgt. Crowley, continue to maintain your character and don’t lower yourself to the the character of these two individuals, say thanks but pass on the beer – or let them come to your house.
I meant “cop” not “copy” – my bad :)
Justin, your post is hilarious. I can scan the blogs for 3 seconds and find 10,000 people blaming Bush for something that happened today, will happen tomorrow, or a week from now. The “get over it” talk seems real funny pointed at a Republican. Do you think we’ve all been in a hole for 8 years? Your revisionist history is pretty freaking weak.
How many times a day does the left bombard us with Global Warming hoax hooey? How many of you liberals are running around preaching “save the Earth” 25 hours a day? Meanwhile a paper published in “Science” today completely annihilated all climate modeled claims and predictions related to Global Warming. And what how do you suppose it does it? By proving that the First Law of Thermodynamics is actually true. Who would have thought?
So when you talk about people not being honest, and when you talk about people repeating things without thinking about them, and when you talk about people dodging the facts, you really ought not be talking about Republicans. You ought to be talking about your own dumb self and the like minded sheep you think so highly of…
This is so much more important than this stuff about Gates Gate.
This is the “change”,just a few from actual bill) we are getting with Obamacare:

“I don’t see what harm it will do, lets plant one friendly question at the end of the press conference to make Barack look good”
Neighbor and officer 100% vindicated. Racist Gates and Obama acted “stupidly”.
WHO WAS THE OTHER MAN? Gates didn’t want the officer to see the other man, so he decided the best form of defense was attack. WHY?
Clearly Professor Gates has problems, but they are in his own head. He acted STUPIDLY.
He is irritable, contentious, angry and guilty of the racism he projects so freely upon everyone else. It’s doubtful that he needs another beer at the White House or anywhere else to set him of on another irrational tirade.
President Obama acted STUPIDLY too, and further demonstrates his poor choice of friends.
I can’t imagine why Sgt. Crowley would want to meet with Gates and The Obamanator. The Sgt. should go bowling with his buddies and stay away form further involvment with these two goofs.
This is a major $#%@-storm Obama has stepped in!
Those of us who voted for Obama (despite the Jeremiah Wright and other “whitey-haters” connections) have just had our WORST fears confirmed. The President rushed to judgement before he had ANY facts.
The officer even calls the suspect “gentleman”.
What nonsense!
I am so sick of this Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, brand of reverse racism. It’s horrible to know our President is hook line and sinker buying into that. We knew his wife did.
This recording gives no insight other then the officer stating “he’s not cooperative” after already admitting to the public that Gates showed his ID (which is cooperative).
The case is pretty clear; 59 year old Harvard professor Henry Gates breaks open his own door, holding cane in hand, after a long trip from half way around the world (suitcases by his side), the police are called and he’s arrested, in his own home, after cooperating and showing ID.
Spin it any way you like the facts are the facts. Obviously the same people saying the black man baited the cop are the same saying Sotomayor is a reverse racist. Indeed the Republican party embraces minorities.
This is Obama spreading racism around. Welcome to ChitcagoLand.
What is so scary to me is that some of the people texting on here probably voted. Now that is scary.
The police actually should have searched Gate’s house to make sure someone wasn’t hiding in the basement or had the Prof. wife / family held hostage in the closet or at knife point… if someone had been hiding in the house and then slit Gate’s throat after the cops left, you cop haters would be saying how the police should have “done more”; what a bunch of hypocrites… The policeman’s actions were appropriate and it was Gates who was out of line, and Obama too.
They both owe an apology. The President should have kept quiet about this issue in the first place.
THIS IS OBAMA’S CLOSE FRIEND? Uh Oh.
The President had no business injecting his opinion in this issue the first place. When asked the question his only comment should have been, “No comment.”! Instead, he ignorantly fell back on his days as a Chicago Community Agitator, and showed the country the side of himself he’s desperately tried to hide for the last couple years. I think the evidence clearly shows that Gates is the REAL racist! Furthermore, Obama is not even man enough to admin he put his foot in his mouth and apologize. Wake up America! It’s time to face the truth; an idiot is running the country and your freedom is at stake!
Yup, Barack Nifong stepped into the controversy willingly and showed the world what a racist looks like.

It’s clear using 20/20 hindsight. Cop gets radio call about possible break-in. Shows up, is met by black male with a racist attitude. No cane in hand, but a big mouth very evident. Calling police, demanding to speak with the chief. “You don’t know who you’re messing with”. “I’ll speak with your mama outside”.
Refuses to quiet down. Follows cop OUTSIDE continuing to berate officer. Is arrested OUTSIDE of his house, not inside.
I live in the Blackhouse and am declaring Pennsylvania Ave to be Martin Luther King boulevard
When the president of the united states says that a police department acted stupidly by doing there job while a fervent racist like gates profiles cops as being racist i believe it IS news worthy and I believe this further justified the average americans criticism of Obama. Nice try gates, you made the victimized african american card even less valid in todays society. unlike you i had to pay for my education because its “fair” for white people. harvard should get rid of “scholars” like this.
Unless he was inciting violence he should not have been arrested.
Whether any parties actions were racially motivated is irrelivant. The story can be summed up with a man being taken into custody without commiting a crime. Evident by the charges being immediately dropped.
Obama should not have commented but an apology or anything more is equally silly.
What an interesting bunch of comments. Great to see the debate still going. This shouldn’t be let go easily. Obama needs to apologize.
Ok – all that aside – Never mind Gates and Crowley: the bigger issue is that Obama made a judgment call or an assumption on national TV without all the facts. We had the Stimulus ( Spending) Bill and now the New Health bill being presented by a president that either doesn’t read or understand the facts. It is scary to believe what he says is True and accurate.
This should concern all Democrats and Republicans alike.
I am just wondering about his asking for the badge number and name of the officer. Every police officer i have ever saw wears a name tag and their badge on their shirt. Are we to believe that gates is now – blind in addition to old (50’s) walks with a cane, tired from flying?
They “Should’ve TASED him BRO!”
I am glad that all you who think its ok to be arrested in your own home for shouting at a police officer are in no position of authority. We have enough of those jerks on the police forces already as is shown in this case. had Gates been white he would not have been arrested. What does the fact that Gates hates white people have to do with this anyway.
When I hear the facts, it seemed to me that the “race card” was being played yet AGAIN!
I’m so sick of it!All people , from all races, have been discriminated at one time or another- at one time there were signs, “Irish not served here”, same with Italians, look at the Japanese
during WW2-all got over it!!
If you take the word “whitey” and replace it with the “n” word, and switch the colors of the
Gates and the cop-would the PROTUS have made the same comment? Didn’t think so…The home owner would have been raked over the coals if the colors and language were switched around.
Don’t like cops? NO PROBLEM!!Next time you need a help- don’t call a cop.
i like chicken
This story is not OVER as some have hoped. 1) Obama did not ‘apologize’. Obama said he need to recalibrate his words and that he stands be his assessment that the officer over reacted. 2) Gates was interviewed by a reporter this weekend and said he expects an apology from the officer in the White House. 3) Gates states he never made a comment about the officers mother. 4) Gates denies he acted improperly in dealing with the officer.
We are tired of professional racial politics by the likes of Gates, Sharpton, and Jesse Jackson. We are going to prove that Gates is a liar and caused this event not the other way around.
If a white Harvard Professor was on tape calling a black officer “Blacky”…how much
longer do you think he’d be employed at Harvard? Not to mention that this professor’s
area of expertise is in Race Relations. This is who we want teaching our children?
Mr. Gates is a racist and if I were Mr. Crowley I would never meet with him or his buddy Obama for a beer. Sounds like an ambush to me.
Why do you guys continue to respond to “Orinocle.” This person is just trying to piss you off. He or she knows that Obama and Gates were in the wrong and are racists but no amount of proof will satisfy this person. I saw this same person on another comment section saying the same stuff to piss off liberals. Just an attention-getter.
Hi Flogged!
You are Black arent you? That is why this is in your judgement “and old story.” You have in fact exposed yourself as a racist. It is funny, how accepted racism is in black culture, often refered to as “reverse-racism”. The fact is, your bias against whites is in fact racism- pure racism…
Sorry, FROG A DEAD HORSE
OBAMBI never apologized. Nada. Look it up.
NB. All of you who keep writing POTUS as if it somehow makes you look either intelligent or official, news flash, it makes you look like an idiot.
By the way, yes, Gates was disrespectful to the police officer. Since when has being disrespectful to a police officer in your home been a crime? I think a lot of you would be a lot happier in a totalitarian society. And people wonder how the Nazi’s gained power in a seemingly “normal” country like Germany.
The Prof & Prez are deplorable human beings! Their woe-is-me-I’m-a-black-man routine is so old particularly given what this country has handed them in the form of free/discounted educations. Obama had his Ivy League education handed to him because of his Indonesian citizenship (hence, why he won’t release his education records). I bet my last dollar Gates was no different. His attitude and behavior gives the obvious appearance of being just another hollow racist race-baiter in the mold of Al Sharpton/Jesse Jackson. The students in his class are being short-changed big time!
Hey black people,
Dont be racist or dont be stupid enough to let it show. What right do you have to be racist. after all you have only been opressed by us white folk since this county began . and since the civil rights movement everything is A-ok. You have been treated completely equal to the white man. Right. jobs , police protection, equal opportunity. sure thing. Hey all you out there kicking about Gates being racist. Walk in a black mans shoes . Its justified!!!
Obama is the Worst President We Have Ever Had.
I did not Vote for him as I voted for John McCain, a True American Hero.
Thank God Obama will only be a “One Term” President, but
The Damage may Be Difficult To Restore.
I believe The American People will think twice before voting for an
inexperienced Person to the Highest Office in The Country.
Obama is Worse than Carter as The Economy Goes Down The Drain.
Obama may be Impeached Before his Term is Over…..
angealone July 27th, 2009 – 1:35 pm
You are right, my angel! Crowley should NOT allow himself to be used by Obama and Gates for some “healing” session. Crowley is a pro at what he does, and these two victicrats are professionals at what they do.
“to the dumb asses July 27th, 2009 – 4:14 pm
I am glad that all you who think its ok to be arrested in your
own home for shouting at a police officer are in no position of authority”
Hey bigger dumb ass,
He was not arrested in his home. He was in the street following the cop
and making disparaging remarks about him and his mama.
You are the dumb ass.
Next time, get a friend to help you with the “big words” before you attempt to respond.
Can someone explain how “recalibrate my words” equals an apology? Are you nuts? When you want to say I’m sorry, I made a mistake” do you come with, “I need to go back in time and recalibrate my words?’ That’s just obnoxious lib crap at its best. There is NO apology here, especially with BHO saying he’s standing by his original assessment. Sgt Crowley should not go the White House for a beer, why should he? These two men have insulted him and the entire Cambridge Police Dept. I would never go have a beer with anyone who did that and couldn’t even apologize. This incident needs to NOT be forgotten, it needs to brought up every now and again, especially in 2010. Obama did not know the facts, yet presumed it was the white officer’s fault and made the judgment the police department acted “stupidly.” Well, if you don’t know the facts, you don’t make a judgment, that is acting “stupidly.” It’s akin to signing a bill without reading it.
Again, why did the dispatcher say there was a “beating” in progress?
GATES: ‘As always, whitey now sits in judgment of me, preparing to cast my fate’…
Obama: White Cop Stupid
Obummer and Gates need to apoligize to the police officer…They are the real racists!
Obama owes officer Crowley and all of the officers in every one of the 57 states a REAL apology.
I find all of this rather interesting. Yesterday on FNS, Press secretary Gibbs stated that
he had briefed Obama on the Gates affair. Why? Then we have a question from a Chicago paper?
Why? Could it be that the healthcare issue was going so badly…as it should, and Obama had
to change the subject to his next favorite topic, race. That is all we heard about on the news
during his campaign. Race. Gates has several u-tube pieces wherein he states his agenda. He
is anti-white. I think this is a way for Obama to save face and he thinks, his poll numbers.
Know what, Obama…we aren’t falling for that anymore. We know about Rules for Radicals…
change the subject and point the figure at another person…in this case the police and
Policeman Crowley. It doesn’t wash anymore, Obama.
“to the dumb asses July 27th, 2009 – 4:34 pm
Hey all you out there kicking about Gates being racist.
Walk in a black mans shoes . Its justified!!!”
Dumb ass dude,
What do you mean? You kick it on welfare and use affimatve action
to guarantee that you do not have to work as hard as white people and then you
have the nerve to think that you are justified acting like an animal.
Get a grip dude. You are black, not annointed!
NEWS FLASH: “THE CHARGES HAVE BEEN DROPPED! THERE IS NO CRIME! THE OFFICER WAS STUPID!”
I am glad I am a White American. Yippee !!!!
Aren’t you glad you are an Afr ican 1st (american)?
3rd Grade teacher with a Klans grade education!
“recalibrate my words” = we narcissists don’t know how to apologize
“Linda July 27th, 2009 – 4:47 pm
Again, why did the dispatcher say there was a “beating” in progress?”
She said there was a “B and E” in progress. Meaning a breaking and entering.
Obama is the 1st African1st american President as you can tell!
Think about it… Gates messed up by escalating the matter and causing a scene on his porch, then the cop did his job, later the charge was dropped as a “hot potato” once it became clear who Gates is and the threats of discrimination he made, they hoped the story would just go away. If anything Gates should be glad he received special treatment! Obama tried to legitimize the dropped charge by saying the police acted “stupidly”, but that soon became his teachable moment. Please politely boycott the meeting for a beer, frankly it is condescending to you and the all officers. You did your job and were overridden, you had your character assaulted, and to top it off you were insulted during a national press conference by a biased president, what could possibly be the attraction of having a beer with them now. The public rallied behind you and you deserved it, don’t let Obama and Gates gain a photo op out of it and or a book cover out of it, keep your dignity please.
Better yet, write your own book about it, expose the double standard, and retire wealthy.
Obama is the 1st Afr ican1st american President as you can tell!
to 3rd grade teacher
Im white. Just not racist like you.
It appears that whites are gaining fast in the victim category previously only reserved for blacks.
“KEEP THE CARS COMING”
(there’s an elderly crippled man who lives here)
Hokey Pete!
Its below obama’s paygrade to admit he is wrong let alone apologize
He and gates are from the same elitist metrosexual club—I bet gates also wears mom-jeans and throws like a girl.
I pray crowley doesn’t go for the beer but prefers to move on like the real man only obama and gates could dream of becoming.
Crowley is lying. Not only has the witness’s lawyer refuted the police report claim that Crowley spoke to the witness at the scene, but also, on WEEI sports radio Crowley claimed he was calling the dispatcher to ‘Slow the units down’, which would have been a rational response when dealing with an innocent man with a cane. Here he we have him telling the dispatcher to ‘Keep the cars coming’. You can hear his false claim in minute 18 of the interview which is still posted on the WEEI.com site.
If America was all black like South Africa who would the black Americans then blame for having to still live in mud huts?
Hey dead horse and any other racists, here’s some facts for ya. The house had been repeatedly broken into. The person who phoned in the call didn’t say black guys, they said 2 guys. Gates was belligerant. The officer was trying to tell him his name but Gates kept shouting at him with words like “I’ll take your momma out on the front porch.” Laff my azz off. THIS is a professor? What a joke. He makes a living out of instilling racism where it doesn’t exist. There’s no healing anywhere in his teaching, only whitey out to get him. He’s a black Nazi. Full of hate. Gates was looking for a fight and provoking the officer. Gates hates him now, but who will he call in a real life threatening emergency? You got it. The same guy to come and save his unworthy azz! Too bad Gates and Obama’s egos are too big to understand. Pity. Obama should have kept his stupid racist mouth shut.
When our president is not man enough to say, “I am sorry,”
when he is clearly in the wrong….is the day he ceased being
my president.
This man is my worst nightmare come true…a racist.
I had hoped for better.
If America was all black like South Afr ica who would the black Americans then blame for having to still live in mud huts?
FUNNY- Breitbart will let you write “America” but not “Af rica”! Try it and guess why?
It will be most difficult to drink a beer as Professor Gates and the POTUS try to spin this incident into a feel good, “everybody gets a trophy” moment! If I were Officer Crowley, I’d probably refrain from attending because I wouldn’t want to be used as a pawn in a political game of racial relations.
Hey Linda, any transcript or quoted link to that claim?
Maybe it was Reginald Denny or the Nifong case, or Twana Brawley, or Elian Gonzalez, or Sarah Palins son, or the Jenna six, or the Waco victims, or Nicole Simpsons family, or the Ruby Ridge victims, or many others that have been “white washed” that you are confusing the facts with fiction!
obama’s “chicken and waffles” are showing
Please someone tell me what Obama has to apologize for? You all do realize that the charges were dropped?
Bates and Obama got their nuts busted when it was found out that Sgt. Crowley Taught Racial Profiling Classes for 5 years at the police academy. Was given the job buy a black Superintendent.
Anyone with half a brain knows the racists here is Barack Obama and Professor Gates.
Supporters of Barack Obama know the teachings of Jeremiah Wright are coming to fruition.
If anyonbe wants to truly understand the divisive racial politics in play here, I highly recommend the book by Kenneth Timmerman where he exposes Jessie Jackson as the “Shakedown Artist” in the book shakedown. He documents this poverty pimp for extorting millions from innocent corporations by threat of boycotts. The rainbow coalition is the worst type of racism ever.
THE TIME HAS COME TO IMPEACH THE FANCY TALKING RACIST.
THE WHITE PEOPLE GAVE HIM A CHANCE …. WHAT A MISTAKE.

Black Bigots?
I have been trying to come up with a universally accepted term for that segment of our society that believes racism against whites is acceptable and justified.
Any suggestions?
orinoclen is an ignorant slut
Obviously orinocle was caught selling crack or breaking into cars given his hate for cops.
orinocle is a race baiter just like the ‘burnt’ man in the white house.
When did Obama call Crowley a racist? Does “stupid” mean “racist” now?
“innocent corporations” = oxymoron
Barry Bonds, you want to know what Obama has to apologize for, really? How about for being inept, bumble mouthed, racist and elitist and monarchial? How about for being too immature to realize the power of the office he holds for the next three and a half years? how about for running down the greatest country on earth, and bowing to a foreign king? Oh, that’s right, he did not bow, he was stooping over because the king is shorter than the Great One, and he was holding both the king’s hands. Never mind that your lying eyes saw his left hand coming up to take the king’s hand on the replay. He did not bow, because we said he didn’t. We are told by him and his mouth piece Gibbs that they know what is good for us as if we are stupid enough to believe what is told to us without question. But since he was elected by the sheeple I guess he is right, enough will believe anything they are told. Adolph, Joseph and Herman would be proud!
Are these enough things this wannabe king should apologize for?
Sgt Crowley did identify himself by the fact that he was wearing a uniform as well
as the fact that he was wearing a badge which contained a badge number and a last
name on the badge. He violated no law and would be disciplined if he did. Officers
while trying to determine the identity of an individual who may or may not have
broken into a residence do not stop an answer questions. He followed proper
police procedure in this case.
I’m so proud of America. We elected a black man (well, half a black man) so we thought that we were no longer a racist nation. LOL. There are racists in every ethnic group and there will always be racists. If Obama and Gates should have just listened to Rodney King when he said, “Can’t we just all get along?” Obama acted “stupidly” and spoke “ignorantly.” Gates, well, he is just an educated idiot.

========================================================================================================
Gater-baiters? Blackcrackers? Shakedown artists? Wefare cheats? Ask the corporate office at 1600Pennsylvania for their best term.
I like the term HYPOCRITES best!
I agree WHAT A MISTAKE!!!!!!!!!
Have you noticed? There is a picture out there, with Gates on handcuffs, being arrested in front of the house and there is a black police officer in front. Why isn’t he a racist or why didn’t he do anything to stop the arrest if it was unjust? Don’t you think he would of said something?
I think reparations are in order to pay for the enequities and reverse racism we as Americans have endured for decades.
I suggest there be an excise tax placed on ham hocks and chitlins!
Can someone tell me why officer crowley did his job so well that the charges were dropped immediately?

He diffused an immanant threat!
The primary factor in police interactions is power. The police have 100% of the power and the individual has none. This places the burden on the police to act deferentially when they’ve determined no crime has been committed. The individual can cuss and curse and yell – the police should stand down. Especially in the man’s home. The police have entirely too much power and this incident proves it.
Regarding race, I’m white and I would have been more salty than the professor, should a policeman not act deferential after intruding in my house. Was the officer acting out of racial bias? Only he can say, but racially motivated or not, he was 100% wrong. 100% of the power and the situation goes improperly to the police station means he was 100% wrong.
The professor and many black commentators assert racial bias in police interactions. I disagree. The problem is that the police have too much power against all races. Mr. black-man thinks he has it rough with police? Well, welcome to the club. The issue isn’t race, it’s that absolute power corrupts absolutely. The police need enough power to stop crime and no more. One iota of power beyond the crime-stopping mission will lead to all of our enslavement. White, black or brown. This officer used his power way beyond crime-stopping.
It is important for the country to expose Obama and Gates to the light of day. Their racism is not limited to just this event. Will Obama and Gates learn anything from this teaching moment?
If a black police officer had come to Gates’ door, surely he would not have been as uncooperative and the situation would have diffused. This is straight-up racist behavior/profiling on the part of Gates’, and one can only assume that Obama shares many of these sentiments as evidenced by his comments and subsequent pompous refusal to admit that he was wrong.
“Black Bigots?”
Well Skin heads has already been used. How about BLACKHEADS!!!!
I’m certain there’s a reality show in the making here based on the 70’s remake of Gilligans isle.
The professor and Mary Ann for a three hour claim, a three hour claim
Lets begin the remake with the Captain throwing another overboard
Obama will try to presurre Crowley from filing a defamation suit when at the White House.
The country would be well-served if Crowley did sue and put these racists on their heels.
Gates is booked on the Oprah Show to tell about the White Racists in Society!
Oh right – now that it is abundantly clear just who baited who, all of a sudden “it does not matter anymore.” How hypocrital. We see in no uncertain terms, that Gates brought it all upon himself and now “it’s not news anyomore.” Out here in the real world, we have been putting up with this “black as eternal victim” nonsense for far too long now.
Tom, the po po only have as much authority as the state gives them. If I was a police officer and you cussed me and talked about my momma, I would slam you against the wall and cuff you so fast you would be looking like that crybaby Gates. You need a little more respect for the LAW my friend.
“The country would be well-served if Crowley did sue and put these racists on their heels.”
What would Crowley sue the stupid Birther people?
Barry Obama doesn’t care about “typical white” people.
Would the cop order a white person to come out of the house? That is the main reason why Prof. Gates became angry. Couldn’t the cop be more respectful instead of assuming Gates is the burglar. That is what is called racial profiling -0 when you assume a black man could not own a nice home!!
If I was Sargent Crowley, I’d inform the Socialist In Chief that if he wants to have a beer with me, he’d need to first apologize publicly, and I mean a SINCERE apology! No dancing around, only a heartfelt, groveling, full-throated apology in front of national TV, and given WITHOUT the aid of a teleprompter!
The “beer” is going to be especially tough for the cop.
Would you want to hang out with those two elitist jerks? One who rants about “your momma” while calling you racist and another who called you “stupid” on national TV?
“Jay”–
No you are right. The cops NEVER order a whitr person to come out of the house. Great Logic and proven Very True. Great Post. Thanks so much!!! DUMB Ni G G er
Why does Crowley lie about “slowing down the units”? He clearly says keep them coming. What else does Crowley lie about?
The Gates Gate:
Obama is a racist, he grew up calling white people “houle” (how-lee) which is equiv. to the N-word, but directed at whites.
Mr. black-man thinks he has it rough with police? Well, welcome to the club.
Good post but how can you invite someone to a club that was specifically designed for them.
This is probably the first time in history where the white delegation is trying to jump on a precieved injustice AGAINST THE COPS. And they are throwing the kitchen sink at this one. This will go down in history as one of the biggest swings and a miss by the white delegation. Sorry but your guy is wrong.
When all was said and done what CRIME did he commit? talking back to a cop in his own house. shoot the bastard!
Well it seems that Obama’s true colors are showing. He cozies up to dictators, apologises to terrorists, apologises on his globe trotting tours, but when it comes to offending real Americans, he offers no apology.
In forming a list of the top of my memory, I know he has repeatedly defamed Law Enforcement, CHRISTIAN Americans clinging to their Bible, Second Amendment advocates-for clinging to their guns, American tax payers – for quadrupling the deficit, American workers for eliminating their jobs, our Founding Fathers for refusing to provide a birth certificate, The entire medical industry by claiming that Doctors remove tonsils from children because it provides the largest payoff, The CIA who kept mus safe for 7 years by stabbing them in their back, the hanicapped special olympics commision by poking fun of those with handicaps, countless millions of unborn Americans, he has offended the Constitution of the United States by nominating an activist Latino racist, the elderly for attempting to pass seniors off as a liability in his health care fraud Bill, the list goes on and on and on……………… Thats just the first six months. God help this country!
Gates was arrested for Contempt of Cop. He made Crowley angry. Citizens often get arrested for Contempt of Cop and the charges are most always dropped. I’d like to be a cop and arrest people for saying things I didn’t like. I’d arrest the majority of the posters here! But I can’t. Only cops can do that …. that and speed with impunity.
Sadly it is Professor Gates who is guilty of racial profiling. Had the first officer on scene been black or hispanic, the professor would never had demonstrated such hatred as he did to the white officer. One would think the election of President Obama would have helped the professor relieve some of that pent up hatred but the professor probably can’t get past the fact that the greatest and most powerful black man of all time was raised by a bunch of evil ole white folks. Obama is the future and haters like you professor are so last century!
See this is where hate crimes are so great. Blacks, pedophiles and Joows get to file cases against White European Americans for saying “hurtful” truths.
commonsense at 2:05. Did you read ANYTHING IN WHAT I WROTE? My message was 6 lines and you misquoted what I said at least that many times. Go bck and reread it if you can, and then comment.
Obama is not racist. He has many diverse friends. Let me see… there’s Hugo Chavez, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, vladimir putin, nancy Pelosi….
I got arrested for driving while black and still had to fight the case in court. I had a butter knife in my car and so they gave me a concealed weapons charge. I couldn’t blieve it. I had just graduated college and was trying to get a job as a substitute teacher. Guess what? I couldn’t because of the pending charge. Later after the charge was dropped I was able to get the job.
Gates is a race-baiting butt-nugget. I’m tired of being racist simply because I’m white. If that’s the case, let’s establish a National Association for the Advancement of White People, The White Entertainment Network and broadcast The White Entertainer Awards. What the hell? WHO IS THE REAL RACIST? FOAD chumps.

I was almost ready to dismiss the first three names to a lack of experience for the racist in Chief, but the last name is unforgivable!
I think the White Delegation had a meeting and they decided that everything they do to blacks they are going to accuse blacks of doing to them.
White Delegation:”When we take away their jobs,were going to say they are taking away our jobs. When we are racist against them, we are going to say they are “reverse” racist against us. When we racially profile, WE are going to say that THEY racially profile. When they say we’re bad, we’re going to say that they are WORSE!” Mmmmuhhhahhahahahhaha!!!!!!”
By the way, “reverse racist” is the stupidest term I have EVER heard.
Obama needs to apologize big time to the police department and especially the officer that had to keep his cool in light of the racist rant against him.

This case is typical of so many involving charges of racism. Gates wants to just walk away after making
unfounded charges of racism, and sullying the reputation of a good man.
No harm no foul, right Professor Gates?
Now I understand why the ENTIRE WORLD hates White Americans (aka Crackers). I can’t wait until you guys are forced to speak Chinese.
Stop racially profiling the President of the United States People.
It is not accurate to say President Obama apologized for his richly moronic comment on this case. He did try to laugh it off—but only because the leader of the Congressional Black Caucus was saying he was going to hold *congressional hearings* into Gates’ arrest and into racial profiling in general. Source: http://tinyurl.com/m4mhem
Even Obama realized his lack of self-control and judgment was about to come back to haunt him big-time — because his political *allies* also could not help themselves from trumping up an opportunity to hate-monger against “whitey.”
And, btw: could Professor Gates’ upcoming PBS special on race have had anything to do with his trolling for a fight with a white police officer? Source: http://tinyurl.com/ngdom3
Finally, while I personally hoped that Obama really would be the “post-racial” president he was campaigning as — is it surprising that someone who listened to Rev Wright for 20 years is in fact a racist?
When will the republicans apologize for the insult to thousands of sincere, hard working community organizers that every major speaker obnoxiously insulted at their convention?

Getting it aired out over a beer is how men solve problems – certainly better than lawsuits and counter-lawsuits. Certainly better than racist name-calling. Certainly better than the Prez getting involved in a local law enforcement issue.
Obama owes the cop an apology, don’t expect it, but the invite for a beer is about the only logical thing in his presidency.
Sgt.Crowley should say, “SORRY BUT I DON’T DRINK WITH RACIST LIARS!”.

It is called affirmative action, Barry. And, it means that a white man
legally gets discriminated against just because of the color of his skin.
It also applies when folks like Obama getting caught revealing
their racist feelings toward whites.
Get it? Or, do I need to get the crayons?
fantum wrote: “Is anyone besides me concerned that we have a president that can’t think before acting, even at the most basic level?”
Yes. I am extremely concerned that we have a President of the United States of America who literally seems to have no clue that he is President of the United States of America. His lack of discipline and judgment is gut-wrenching. His lack of knowledge of the ways of Washington, much less of how U.S. presidents are perceived on the world stage, is actually dangerous.
A wise person at any level of responsibility, much less President of the United States, knows enough to refrain from commenting on a matter on which he doesn’t have all the facts and, even if he has the facts, to refrain from commenting on matters that are first within the purview of someone else (such as local law enforcement officials).
Socialized medicine as Obama’s Waterloo? I dunno, what this incident revealed about Obama’s character and judgment to those not otherwise paying attention just might end up being his Rubicon in the rearview mirror.
blah, blah, blah . . BL-A-H!!! BLAH-BLAH Blah!!! Blah-BLAH, blah, BLAHHH!!!!!

Grandma got run over by Obama
Walking to the doctor’s without leave
You can say there’s no such thing as rationing
But as for me and Grandpa we believe
She’d been seeing Doc quite often
For her heart and lumbago
But one day she got a letter
Saying “sacrifice yourself; it’s time to go”
They found her DOA that mornin’
At the scene of the attack
“Rejected” stamped upon her forehead
And an incriminatin’ O upon her back
Grandma got run over by Obama
Walking to the doctor’s without leave
You can say there’s no such thing as rationing
But as for me and Grandpa we believe

Sorry. It was the CONGRESSIONAL BLACK CAUCUS that was about to give this story major legs, and which fact forced Obama to try to walk it back. They actually were talking about taking this nuclear, so don’t be too quick about giving the GOP credit for exposing Obama’s lack of character and judgment, as well as the fact that he’s no different than Wright/Jackson/Sharpton et al.

As for one’s political opponents trying to “hurt” (politically) one another, duh.
I’m a hardcore Democrat, but I’ve disliked Obama ever since he sent his black Chicago thugs into the caucuses to steal Hillary’s caucus votes and the election. He is nothing more than a Chicago racist thug himself.
Just keep telling yourselves:
“It took four years of Jimmy Carter to give us
20 of the next 28 years of Republican Presidents.”
Our current race baiting fraud will surely do the same.
After reading the comments here I do not want to move on. I want the cop to explain how he heard about “two black men” breaking in when that was never said! I can see why the witness wanted it released. I want him to explain how he said he talked to the woman who filed the report when she says he did not! I want to hear the tape of the WHOLE incident from start to finish so I can get the tone and attitude of the officer loud and clear, not the snippets we have been presented. I want to hear why a guy who was trying to call THE CHIEF OF POLICE was arrested. I also want the people who said Gates FOLLOWED the officer to the front porch explain how the officer said he WOULD NOT come out to the porch. I want to know why he was asked to come out because of A PUBLIC DISTURBANCE when the original disturbance was INSIDE THE HOUSE! The more I read the more I am convinced that Gates was not upset toward police officers, but was upset with THAT officer. I want to know why you are arresting a guy who had to get a cane and get his handcuffs in front of him when you already know he committed no crime. I WANTED this to end peacefully with both sides having dignity and a “teachable” moment, but now I guess they will have to charge poor Sgt. Crowley with filing a fraudulent report, which he absolutely did! You right wing wingnuts ALWAYS overplay your hands. Too bad! I think Sgt. Crowley is a good cop, but like most good cops you do not want to look to closely at procedure. Now, because of you, that will happen.

So, he’s started a “conversation” alright. Gates-gate has opened the floodgates: such as, “As Racists, We’re Amateurs” – http://tinyurl.com/nzuyp4
flog a dead horse….
This should be beaten into the ground….for this truly shows OBAMA is a racist. IT IS NOW CLEAR THAT 20 YEARS IN REVEREND WRIGHTS CHURCH OF “HATE WHITEY” DID HAVE A HUGE IMPACT ON OBAMA.
By the same token…imagine what Bill Ayers did to his pea-brain head too.
Stupid sheep voters.
I’m confuesd. Why did Sgt. Crowley say in his police report that the suspects were two black males but the neighbor who called 911 never mentioned race?
So if two white males had really been the perpetrators, they would have never been caught because Sgt. Crowley had another description in mind.
Also, why did Sgt. Crowley say over dispatch to “send the cars” when he knew that Gates lived there.
I think Gates was acting arrogantly and chippy but the good Sgt. is no saint. And the President should have refused to comment.
The stupid cop arrested the stupid black guy and then the stupid cop because a hero because his stupid charges got dropped.
What did Obama say that was racist?
Let’s admit it Obama really CAN be a racist. He is only HALF a black man. That makes him HALF a cracker. He is the picture of an OREO.
CKA in Red State USA wrote: “And “distracting headlines”? Fool. Likely, Obama planted the question. When it arose, it was the only time during that dreary “news” conference that the Know-Nothing- and Racist-in-Chief actually showed any semblance of being engaged.”
How right you are! Obama was actually prepped for this question and STILL blew it big-time. Of course, he later had no clue why his “answer” provoked even a whisper of controversy.
Two questions: 1) Do the white congregants at Rev. Wrights church know that he is racist? 2) Does Gates’ white wife know that he is a racist?
I think someone should tell them.
Which is the bigger racist? Obama or Gates?
I look at it this way. It is 6 to 1/2 dozen as to which man is the bigger racist.
There is a silver lining to this circus.
Obama stands revealed.
I see the Limbaugh crowd is in full effect. Too bad you peckerwoods can’t think for yourself. You’ve got a drug addict thinking for you. Smart.

Bilderberg Bush-Obama has, once again, proved that he is not presidential. He has made bad judgment calls all his life and he continues to do so while in office.
HE IS A DIVIDER OF RACES, MEN, AND NATIONS!
WHY, AMERICA, DID YOU ELECT SUCH A MAN TO THE HIGHEST POSITION IN OUR LAND THAT IS TO REPRESENT ‘ALL’ THE AMERICAN PEOPLE?
ONCE AGAIN, HE HAS DISGRACED THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENCY…HOW MUCH DO YOU NEED FOR IMPEACHMENT?
ONE DAY HE IS GOING TO DO TOO FAR!
PeckerJo, sorry but smoking dope in ones youth and one being a full on addict are two different things. They are about to leagalize dope what will your argument be then? Sorry but you are still getting instructions from a drug addict. Keep pointing fingers… but the fact still remains.
Peckerwoods can’t think without Rush.
Takeaways from all this discussion are that reporting such events CAN be done without citing race. If a person is breaking into a house and you report it fast enough… and the police arrive fast enough, they will find said person inside the house. It is accepted formality to request ID and during that formality, it is not acceptable to make the duties of an officer of the law difficult to carry out.
Kudos to the person who reported the incident the way they did. (No assumptions were made – a true, impartial neighbor) I’m reminded of a time in the mid 60’s when the first black family moved into our sprouting neighborhood on L.I., NY. I learned a lot about racism then. My dad was a Rebublican committeeman and knew just about everyone in his district. Our family was the only one to welcome and extend the hand of friendship to those folks. Our families became very dear friends and remained that way. It didn’t matter that they were well spoken individuals who were obviously well educated. The rest of the neighbors (mostly Democrats) only began to accept them when they learned that both were MD’s. What a shame.
I am very proud that our nation has proven it can elect a president who is not white. But I do wish that our President was Colin Powell, who I am very aware backed Barak Obama during his race against Clinton and McCain. It doesn’t matter… I just wish it was Colin. Of course, I am very much republican. I hope those Democrats who read this have a very clear understanding that there are many more of us white Republicans who have similar unbiased backgrounds – and we are not happy with the behavior of our president. Don’t think that you are unique in your ideals and aspirations for racial equality in out great country.
Oh, and I work in Cambridge, Ma. and have needed the services of the Cambridge Police. They didn’t treat me special because I was white and I too had to present my ID, even though the car I was driving clearly belonged to me and I reported the break-in. It’s 2009; Expect to present ID and cooperate with law enforcement.
Barry Bonds, I’ll talk to yo peckerwood momma on the poch. Ain’t that what cho brother would say at a time like dis?
This Obama speaking on victory in Afghanistan:
“I’m always worried about using the word ‘victory,’ because, you know, it invokes this notion of Emperor Hirohito coming down and signing a surrender to MacArthur,” Obama told ABC News.
The trouble is that Hirohito was not the singer for Japan. That duty was performed by Japan’s Foreign Minister, Mamoru Shigemitsu, and one of its generals, Yoshijir Mumezu.
In fact, we didn’t destroy Japan’s Emperor, rather we allowed him to continue on in a ceremonial role to allow the Japanese to feel as if they hadn’t been entirely crushed and that some of their traditions might live on.
Obama is one first class stupid S.O.B.

And is it true that the black doctor who “treated” Michael is receiving a congressional medal of honor” for going above and beyond his duty?
The new slant is that Obama is an Oreo (cute). So do you guys realize how this flies in the face of your racist argument? And I would think that you guys would be “happy” that he is still white on the inside.
Nope, the peckerwoods are still mad. It’s your own fault. Who told you to vote for a fellow peckerwood two times in a row? Sold you all down the river to his Saudi friends and you’re still loyal to him. Bush made that entire region rich off of your backs and your blood. Wow.
As long as someone strums a bango and says “G-d, bless America (and is white)” you guys will believe anything. Manipulated much?
Who needs Jessie Jackson or Al Sharpton to talk for you when you have the Great Obama to speak. Now BB and his friends will just walk in lock step with Obama like the Germans did with Hitler. The dumb leading the dumb and the blind leading the blind.

Blacks are seven times more likely than people of other races to commit murder, and eight times more likely to commit robbery.
When blacks commit crimes of violence, they are nearly three times more likely than non-blacks to use a gun, and more than twice as likely to use a knife.
Hispanics commit violent crimes at roughly three times the white rate, and Asians commit violent crimes at about one quarter the white rate.
The single best indicator of violent crime levels in an area is the percentage of the population that is black and His
Of the nearly 770,000 violent interracial crimes committed every year involving blacks and whites, blacks commit 85 percent and whites commit 15 percent.
Blacks commit more violent crime against whites than against blacks. Forty-five percent of their victims are white, 43 percent are black, and 10 percent are Hispanic. When whites commit violent crime, only three percent of their victims are black.
Blacks are an estimated 39 times more likely to commit a violent crime against a white than vice versa, and 136 times more likely to commit robbery.
Blacks are 2.25 times more likely to commit officially-designated hate crimes against whites than vice versa.
Barrack Obama HATES White People – and after all of this I want some repirations from this Administration.

But, if a Chief of Police were armed with those
facts and not afraid of the TRUTH think of all
the good he or she might be able to do for all of us.
Too bad PC has us all hiding from the truth.
Robert are you looking at Limbaugh statistics or the FBI statistics?
Here is what the FBI says for 2007: http://www.fbi.gov/ucr/cius2007/data/table_43.html
one thing you forgot to mention in those statistics bluejacket;
When they are not maintaining true to the rate of crime, they are posting under the name Barry Bonds and calling others “peckerwood”
Barry Bonds is the type that will pay you a surprise visit, it involves entry through the window in the cloak of darkness, while your on vacation, and if caught cry’s racism!
Obama the community organizer coulodn’t even organize his chciago community to stop the murders, the gang activity, drug dealing, and pimping in those black community.
And he is going to solve the problems of a complex, imploding economy, two wars, international conflicts, health care, Iran, Korea…
Obama couldn’t organize a lawn party.
Dumb as a box of rocks.
Obama did not apologize. He used a type of double speak that is meant to confuse stupid people into thinking he apologized. If I break one of your legs by accident and you are mad at me – is it really an apology to say “I’m sorry you’re mad at me for breaking your leg” ??? um no. I’m just saying that it I’m sorry you are mad at me. An apology would sound like “I’m sorry I spoke stupidly, these cops were doing their jobs the best they could”.
I just wish Obama would say that the 85% of black mothers
giving birth to out of wedlock babies are acting “stupidly.”
I guess he just sees a whole new generation of guaranteed welfare type democrats.
Heaven forbid that a 911 caller who is reporting a possible break-in would dare mention the person’s skin color! No, just make the officers guess on that one! 911: Can you please describe the person who you say is possibly trying to break into a home? Caller: Ahhh, he’s about 5′8″ tall, medium build, 50-55 years old, wearing brown slacks and a yellowish shirt. 911: Hair color? Caller: I can’t tell. He is wearing a hat. 911: Can you describe the hat? Caller: Light colored, maybe beige, kinda like the shape hat Indiana Jones wears. 911: Race? Caller: Ahhhhh, I think I’ll take the 5th on that one. 911: Excuse me? Caller: I’d rather not say. 911: Why is that, ma’am? Caller: Because he is not white and therefore has special rights…..doesn’t he? 911: No ma’am, not when committing a crime. Caller: Oh, well that makes sense I guess, but I’d still rather not say. Can’t the officers just go by the information I have already given you? 911: Certainly that information helps ma’am, but skin color is probably the most readily recognizable feature about a person, especially if a fair amount of the skin is exposed. It really would help the department if you could provide us with the race, ma’am. It could help us identify the correct person more quickly, and help us avoid arresting the wrong person by mistake. Caller: That sounds pretty good, but aren’t white people the only ones you can’t get into any trouble about when you say something negative about them? 911: Hmmmmm. I’ve never looked at it that way before. Good point, ma’am! We’ll just have the responding officers give it their best shot and guess on the race issue. Thank you for your call. click!
Gates got arrested not because he has a black a– but because he acted like a smart a– with this officer.
Gates should have thanked the officer for showing up to protect his property and family from a potential thief. Instead he showed what an arrogant elitist he really is.
Yep, peckerwoods don’t know anything about welfare. http://taxprof.typepad.com/taxprof_blog/2004/09/red_states_feed.html Keep stigmatizing the blacks, it will only make us stronger.
Gates didn’t only SAY he lived there, he showed the officer identification. What did the officer do? He called the Harvard police to escalate the situation. It was very poorly handled.
That’s not to let Gates completely off the hook. Despite the racism that he’s most certainly seen in his life, he should have remained calm and understood that barging into his own apartment may have looked suspicious.
I just find it amusing that so many people can’t see it through the eyes of Gates. The guy was simply returning to HIS HOME when an officer arrived suggesting that he was a thief. Would this truly not frustrate you? What if you’d been profiled your entire life and even after you had found great success as an esteemed professor of the nation’s greatest university, you were getting hassled in YOUR OWN HOME.
There was simply NO REASON for Gates to be arrested. Though it’s pretty clear that there was no racial malice on behalf of the officer, he did the wrong thing.
You can just hear the racist cops and dispatcher, enjoying the takedown of a proud black man. What’s the matter with them? Bwana Gates is in charge and needs to run for higher office. Better check his research, guys like him plagerize and blame the racists mofukahs when they get called on it. Just ask Reverend Al and his tax returns. Or Jessy, shakedown artist extraordinaire. The President needs to move away from these dirtbags. The President needs to dump the media as well, they mean him no good.
So if we don’t knows us some stuff on Welfare we’re peckerwoods? Whatever Barry “I wanna be Sortero” Bonds

hey Barry, Robert Byrd just called he wants to have a word with you. Something about Albert Gore senior being correct when he stated that it was right to pass the part of the civil rights act where it granted you the right to cast a vote for him but he still felt there should be seperate drinking fountains.

People of America, Barack did listen to the good Rev. Wright when he sat in his pews for 20 years. He learned very well. BHO, indeed, does not like America and he only tolerates those white people who are willing to help him transform America into a 3rd world country. That hope and change thing is looking awfully ominous right now. BHO and, starting in 2010, his Jackass Party, must be defeated, pure and simple, or this country is doomed.
flog a dead horse is a BAFFOON, like most liberals.
B. Hussein Obama did NOT apologize, and you know it. Like racist Gates, BHO acted STUPIDLY, not the Officer.
Maybe, just maybe Gates was arrested because he was being a horse’s @ss in attitude and speech.
Libs just can’t stand being proven WRONG. Get used to it in the coming years…
I voted for McCain, but was not unhappy when Obama was elected because I foolishly thought that the racism was nearing the end so something good would come out of the next four years. Now I see that it is merely shifting from one group to another. I stand accused of being a racist by my Hispanic neighbors (they do not LOOK Hispanic, but apparently they are) because I do not want to hear their music 24/7. Condoning any type of racial profiling is “stupid”. Profiling a police officer based on skin color is exactly what the officer is being accused.
It is not racially motivated when a police officer arrives at your home to protect your belongings without knowing (or probably caring about) the color of your skin. The officers were there to protect the home, and ascertaining the identity of the person inside is part of that. I would be overjoyed if an officer responded to a call about my home. At least they care enough about their jobs to do that.
I don’t hate police. I simply do nothing that would warrant them looking at me twice. I would never yell at a police officer. They have big guns and tasers. Then again, I don’t feed stray dogs for close to same reason — they have big teeth.
<<<>>>
Wow, you’re pretty much a fool, no?
GATES OWNED THE PLACE! What was the officer going to need to be able to validate this? DNA? The man should NOT have had to go to jail just to inevitably prove that he was not a thief.
He over-reacted and the officer bungled his responsibilities. Sorry, but yelling at an officer (who refuses to show his own ID) is NOT an arrestable offense.
Now hurry back off to Fox.
By the way, the moment you play the “Hussein Card” (how embarrassing), you have lost the argument and are no longer part of the discussion. Consider that an amendment to Godwin’s Law.

Don’t sweat it, I nearly brought down a Presidential campaign. – Rev. Wright
I am sooooo, sooooo glad I did not vote for this Racist President.
Remove the fact that the cop is white and the Prof is black and look at the situation again. In any situation, if a police officer tells you to do something, just do it. If you disobey you could get shot/beaten/tasered/killed. If you obey the officer and you haven’t done anything wrong then you will be ok. If the cop does something wrong then sue his ass, but be smart, don’t poke the cops with a stick. You are just asking for it.
Put yourself in a cops position, every single call/traffic stop/encounter with the public could result in the officers death. When they come to a scene they secure it first, then sort out the facts. So I get it that cops sometimes overreact when somoene does not comply, they are trying to secure the scene. And I know its a pain in the b u t t to be hassled by the police when you haven’t done anything wrong, but in most instances they are acting in the interest of public security. Most cops have a good nature but some don’t. Just like some professors have a good nature and some don’t.
The situation could have been avoided if the professor just complied.
The dispatch tape has been released. No where on the tape do you hear anyone yelling or screaming. The officer said repeatedly that Gates kept yelling at him, but you don’t hear it on the tape. Why?

If your line of questioning is sincere, be patient as I am sure there’s more to be released.

Why did Crowley tell WEEI ““One of my first transmissions was to slow the units down and I’m in the residence with somebody I believe resides here, but he’s being very uncooperative. So, that’s in real time,” where it’s clear on the tape he says too “keep the units coming?
The whole world understands that Mr. Obama is a racist now.
Gates is the real raciest. The officer acted out of PRIDE. How dare anyone question an officer, at anytime or you’ll be fined or taken in. Officers shouldn’t be so PRIDIFUL. USE COMMON SENSE.
Q for ac July 27th, 2009 – 8:49 pm
anticommie,
Why did Crowley tell WEEI ““One of my first transmissions was to slow the units down and I’m in the residence with somebody I believe resides here, but he’s being very uncooperative. So, that’s in real time,” where it’s clear on the tape he says too “keep the units coming?
=========================================================================================================
Study your own comments very closely, in it you will find the very elusive answer in which you seek.
To “to the dumb asses”: You said, “I am glad that all you who think its ok to be arrested in your own home for shouting at a police officer are in no position of authority. We have enough of those jerks on the police forces already as is shown in this case. had Gates been white he would not have been arrested. What does the fact that Gates hates white people have to do with this anyway.”
Oh, really.
First, he wasn’t arrested in his home. And, no I don’t think “its [sic] ok to be arrested in your home” unless there’s an outstanding warrant for you or you’ve provoked the cops to arrest you.
Second, Gates was given a chance to shut up, with no consequences. He made a choice to keep running his arrogant and racist mouth.
Third, how dumb are you and those of your ilk who actually think you can challenge a cop and win? It doesn’t make any difference what color their skin is or what sex: When they apprise someone that that someone’s behavior could lead to arrest, as Gates found out, they’re not kidding.
I covered police beats some time ago: local, county and state cops. Heard a lot of stories from them about how people would just not shut up and actually dare the cops to arrest them. Without fail, the cops all said the next thing they did was to pull out the handcuffs and make an arrest.
IMO, mind you, it appears the only “dumb asses” in all this are racist and race-baiter Obama and his kindred spirit Gates–and those who reflexively and hastily defended Gates.
Obama and Gates are racial discord looking for an outlet–and will exploit, it appears, those situations which fulfill their racist prophecies.
Obama and Gates are also exemplars of that old saw: Give a man a hammer and everything looks like a nail.
Maybe it’d educate them–yes, I know that’s daydreaming to think megalomaniac Professor-in-Chief Obama will let anyone or anything instruct him, to give him “a teachable moment”–to trade that long long down their elitist noses and actually do some uniformed police work in, say, D.C., NYC or Boston, or Detroit, or Atlanta, etc.
But, then, that’d take a level of intellectual honesty and testicularity I suspect neither possesses.
This liar and incompetent putz Obama’a solution to everything is, “Let’s have a beer together”.
To the Iranians, “Let’s have a beer together”. To the Russians, “Let’s have a beer together.
To white Americans, “Let’s have a beer together.” This mama coddled(but father fantasizing)
psychological misfit an n arcissist REALLY thinks the world revolves around his pathetic

The real story is many well spoken, well dressed blacks like Gates, the Obama, Rev. Wright, Rev. Sharpton, Rev. Jackson, Rev. etc., will always call a white cop a racist, until they get caught in their own lies. The Obama agreed….saying the white cop acted “stupidly” without knowing the facts.
What else does the Obama act on and say daily without a clue to what is actually happening? The chickens are coming home to roost, oh great one.
this is all a discussion that signifies nothing. the real story is the gouging of the taxpayers and how we are now trillions of dollars in debt

I had dinner with one of Obama’s starry eyed lemmings this past Friday night. She is very put out with the dumb ass and said to me, “I don’t understand how I missed it. The man is not capable of running this country.”
She works with 22 Obamabots. She told me that only 5 still support the dumb ass.
Is it possible that we’ve elected a black leader instead of a leader who just happens to be black?
ALL of Obama’s major initiatives are now in big trouble. Health Care Reform (as he sees it) is dead. Cap & Trade will not get through the senate. Unemployment will go beyond 10% so Amnesty will also rot on the vine.
Americans are beginning to catch on to Obama’s lies and deceit.

I wish you had been one of the reporters asking questions during the election ‘cuzz that is a simple but brilliant question to ask.
FLOG A DEAD HORSE must have thier head in the sand. A GOP controlled media, really?! Where have you been
getting your news from? The news outlets have all been falling over themselves trying to spread Obama’s
socialist rhetoric since he began running for President shortly after he was elected to the Senate. Get real.
Obama’s remarks were a personal attack on an individual plain and simple. This showed poor judgement
(seems like we see more and more of it every day from him) and leads me to ask, who’s going to be the next
citizen attacked by a sitting president?
The tapes and the testimony of the lady who called the police clearly shows that Policemen lied in the report. He lied that the witness told him about 2 black males and he lied that Mr. Gates loudly insulted him inside the house. No such insults are on the tape. So the officer guilty of 2 crimes: Falsification of the police report and false arrest.
Sarah Palin has received the harshest and the most vicious assaults on herself, her husband and even her children that I have ever seen or heard of in my 65 years. It was and continues to be brutal and vulgar.

In reply to: TO CLARIFY
Complainant Lucia Whelan’s Boston attorney, Wendy Murphy, is the person who has said in media reports that Ms. Whelan is NOT white. Attorney Murphy said Ms. Whelan is portuguese, originally from an island off of the coast of Portugal, near Africa; and that Ms. Whelan is dark skinned. I DIDN’T SAY Ms. Whelan was or was not “white”; SHE is the one who has said she is NOT white — and certainly Ms. Whelan should know the color of her own skin.
The problem with you Gates apologists is that you’re becoming unglued over the fact that this entire incident is becoming clear to everyone as being nothing more than an incident involving an over-rated black racist — who professionally masks himself as a “scholar” — who is unable to co-exist with white people. It’s simple: Gates has an inferiority complex.
I’d like to understand how anyone leaping to the defense of the police officer can explain how the “suitcases” on the 911 tape turn into “backpacks” in the police officer’s report? It should have been pretty clear that the man who was in the house and showed ID, and who was reported entering with “suitcases” was the man who lived there.
KDC – maybe it was a mistake, you know like the mistake then Senator Obama made that he was tired after visiting 57 states. Do we know that there were no backpacks to begin with?

Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.
Dear KDC at 11:30 pm…have you ever seen the cable show…”To catch a Thief”?
In it former professionals thieves break into houses (with the owners approval) to prove their vulnerability!
Many times they enter with suitcases to cart off the stuff they take and/or they take suitcases from the house to do the same!
Enough said…do not be so naive! Thieves are not that stupid!
I’m sure you can’t be comparing a “mistake” in an off-hand comment (Obama’s) to one in an official police report (Crowley’s).
And I don’t know there weren’t backpacks also there, but the 911 caller clearly described two men with suitcases and said she couldn’t be certain they didn’t live there. She said nothing of backpacks, which are certainly situationally different items.

Dear KDC at 11:30 pm…have you ever seen the cable show…”To catch a Thief”?
In it former professionals thieves break into houses (with the owners approval) to prove their vulnerability!
Many times they enter with suitcases to cart off the stuff they take and/or they take suitcases from the house to do the same!
Enough said…do not be so naive! Thieves are not that stupid!
=======================================================================================================
lol That may explain Gates temper at having been interupted in an insurance scheme.
“Thieves are not that stupid”
First, from my experience reading thousands of case files, thieves are more than likely to be “that stupid”–on’t give them too much credit.
Second, when an officer enters a house a number of minutes after the initial 911 call, and there is no evidence of anything being taken, and the occupant (who was entering with suitcases) shows ID, it’s time to back off, not go on a power trip–even if the occupant is not being polite.

Funny you would appear to give thieves more credit then Obama gave an outstanding and reputable Law Enforcement officer.
KDC – power trip. You mean like the power trip that Gates exhibited saying stuff like you don’t know who you’re dealing with…nice double standard.
I’m not surprised that the the professor became indignant when he was confronted by the police in this instance. After all in the black community, even if he was breaking into the property, none of the black neighbors would turn him in.
I see it every day in Pittsburgh, black on black crime. Five to ten murders a week. In broad daylight with plenty of witnesses and guess what happens when the cops show up? No one saw anything. Even when little kids were killed by stray bullets.
I can’t understand how blacks get upset when cops (who have to deal with this $hit all the time) do something that irritates your pride but you put up with all the brothers killing each other. I just think it’s easier to pick on cops because they are easy targets. In other words, you’re all chicken $hits. I just pray that after the smoke clears that only the good black are left standing.
Gates and the rest of his ilk do not want racial harmony. They want to milk the system and they would have no raison d’etre without racial disharmony – - they certainly contribute little else to society. Is it any wonder that the melting pot doesn’t work any more with these thugs screaming racism whenever a non-white is held responsible for his or her actions. Racism doesn’t cause racial profiling, common sense does. A large relative proportion of crime is committed by blacks and hispanics. Recognizing that simple fact is not racism, it is mathematics. Are we to believe that numbers are racist too? And how racist is it to think that all or most whites are racist? Is that any less racist than to think that a higher percentage of blacks commit crimes? Oh but you know through your vaunted intellect that your prejudices are based on fact. I guess you think your opinions are more valid than incarceration statistics. Actually words are wasted on these reverse racist SOBs. I’m outta here. Click!
anticommie–you make no sense. I don’t give thieves any credit, and my post implies that they more than likely to act stupidly, so I don’t know what you mean when you say I give them more credit than Obama gives this “outstanding and reputable” officer.
pinouye–a “double standard” implies similar situations. Gates and the officer are not in the same situation. The officer has the power to handcuff and arrest a man in his own home and to write, unedited, a report, which will serve as an official summary of the incident–all of which he did. Gates can only get upset and act a fool, which he apparently did. One has power, and, therefore, the ability to have a “power trip”. The other doesn’t.
Looky here…
It only took 7 months to reveal that Ob-RAHM-a is, indeed, capable of miracles.
Look at his ratings plummet !
He has truly made blind men see! BarRACIST Ob-RAHM-a !!!
—————————————————————————————————
“FRANK + DODD = “F-R-O-D-D”
What do Gates, Farrakhan, Wright, Michelle O … all have in common?
They were all embraced/chosen by Obama to to be not just “colleagues”,
but “friends”, spiritual influence, wife ~
and each and every one has been exposed as having racist attitudes twd whites.
This was obvious in Obama’s writings! Can these “voters” not read???
They all supplied the rope-a-dope
and he, “stupidly” !, hung himself !!!!!!!!!
(just surprised at how FAST it happened. That was the ONLY surprise!)

I can’t understand how blacks get all upset when cops (who have to deal with this $hit all the time) do something that irritates your pride, but you’re all perfectly happy to put up with the brothers killing each other. I think it’s easier to pick on cops because everybody’s doing it. In other words, you’re all chicken $hits.
In other words, it’s a matter of life and death to stand up to the criminals in your communities, even if they are black. That should be priority number one. I just pray that after the smoke clears that only the good blacks are left standing.
Read the police report. The police officer did nothing wrong. He was not asked for his identification. He was uniformed, but driving an unmarked car. Gates had to take him outside for officer safety – it’s the first rule you learn in the academy. The suspect always knows the home and where weapons are hidden. What’s more, there were two suspects and the copy only saw one – the other one could have been a threat. Finally, estranged husbands with I.D.’s showing their previous address return home and kill their ex-wives all the time. The police did precisely the right thing and the only racists here are Gates and Obama – the latter for simply assuming the white officer or the white witness was motivated by race.
Amazing how it WAS a story when it was the white unjustly racially profiling the innocent person in his own home. I seem to remember lawyers were gonna be hired, lawsuits were gonna happen, people were going to lose their jobs. “What’s That? You have everything on Audio?” Now “everything was blown out of proportion” and “I just want to use this to as a chance to move forward” and “why are you trying to make this into a story?” Amazing how things change when the RACISM CARD IS ON THE OTHER FOOT. This country would be much farther along in race relations if people didn’t cry racism in every situation where there are two colors involved. This really negates any real attempt to deal with real racial issues. OF COURSE Al Sharpton was thumpin his chest trying to figure out who he could ‘SHAKE DOWN’ next–even telling several call-ins to his show to “shut up”, now of course he is eating crow and trying to justify the elitist professor for the same thing he was seeking the noose for on the police officer. He was wanting the officer FIRED, yet he doesn’t even think the professor should offer an apology. I suppose had the officer NOT investigated a citizens 911 call and it actually had been a break in of the professors house, it would have been a case of “black people don’t get the same protection” scenario.
Does anyone else think that Obama inviting the white cop over for a beer is kind of like the white cop inviting Professor Gates over for fried chicken and watermelon?
From Sgt Crowley’s police report regarding a conversation with Ms Whaley:
She went on to tell me that she observed what appeared to be two black males with backpacks on the porch of Ware Street,” the report says. “She told me that her suspicions were aroused when she observed one of the men wedging his shoulder into the door as if he was trying to force entry.” http://www.cnn.com/2009/US/07/27/gates.arrest/index.html
From Wendy Murphy Ms Whaley’s lawyer:
On CNN the caller’s lawyer says she never stated there were any black men and she said she never talked to Sgt. Crowley. So why in the police report did it say Sgt. Crowley talked to the caller??? http://www.cnn.com/2009/US/07/27/gates.arrest/index.html
Tonight on CNN’s Anderson Cooper, Ms Murphy said that Crowley approached Whaley and told her to “Wait there”. there was no further conversation. How did a report of a detailed conversation end up in his report? Did he fabricate this conversation? Did the conversation occur with another officer? Were police notes combined?
Crowley’s police report is an official document and would be included at trial. Shouldn’t there be a clarification of this apparent discrepancy?
If Crowley’s report is in error, can we trust his version of the conversation at the door to and inside Gates’ house?
Crowley should be glad that no one is making a bigger deal of this than they have.
In several cases, the courts in Massachusetts have considered whether a person is guilty of disorderly conduct for verbally abusing a police officer. In Commonwealth v. Lopiano, a 2004 decision, an appeals court held it was not disorderly conduct for a person who angrily yelled at an officer that his civil rights were being violated. In Commonwealth v. Mallahan, a decision rendered last year, an appeals court held that a person who launched into an angry, profanity-laced tirade against a police officer in front of spectators could not be convicted of disorderly conduct
The Cambridge Police should be training their officers to know the difference between legal and illegal conduct. It wasn’t disorderly conduct. At least not in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
Republicans trying to milk this for political gain should leave well enough along.
The more I look at this entire episode the more evidence I see that proves to me that Gates is overcompensating for what he sees as his own inadequacies. First evidence of this came while I watched a youtube video of him giving a speech. He on several occasions said what he thought was witty and then immediately turned to his audience of peers looking for approval of what he said. He did this three times: once when demeaned Clarence Thomas, once when demeaned North Carolina, and again when smeared Newt Gingrich. On all three of these occasions, he turned all the way around and looked to see if his audience approved of what he was saying. He needed this approval. He basked in the approval. Why? I think he is a small man in stature he feels insecure about his own physical presence and overcompensates for that insecurity by saying things to draw attention to himself whether what he says is sensible or not. Also, I think he doubts his own intelligence and is constantly saying things that he thinks others will want to here. This is probably what happened at his house. When the officer came, Gates felt threatened, whether he was or not, and began to overcompensate by shooting off his mouth and playing his role as the victim. He felt at a disadvantage physically and compensated by spouting platitudes about being a ‘black man’ in America, a victim of the white man’s oppression. I’ve seen this happen in real life several times. Once a person gets going running their mouth, they can’t stop and often will say things they don’t mean and say things that don’t make sense. This is why he was arrested. He said demeaning things to the officer, things that he probably didn’t think about very much. Look at his face in the picture. He’s out of it and his mouth is overtaking him. The cop probably should have just let him go, realizing he was just nuts and shooting off his mouth. But, sometimes people say things that get them into trouble, and once they are there, their only resource is to play the vulnerable and picked-on victim which Gates surely sees himself as being.
Put this thing to bed! Forget about the beer thing. Since when are serious issues discussed over alcohol?
Peresident Obama keep to doing Presidential things and not getting involved in events you know absolutley nothing about. Most of all keep in mind that you were talking not only to America but to the rest of the world when you made that stupid and I maight add, ignorant comment.
This HOPEless racist president CHANGEs USA into a “HOPEless” situation.
The Left’s Obama agenda is being exposed on a number of fronts.
You can take the boy out the ghetto but you can’t take the ghetto out the boy.
The only racists in this story are BHO and Gates. When will everyone just admit that? When will everyone get over race and playing the race card?
What bent reasoning from you liberals here, both black and white. How is this cop a racist? Oh I know! Simply because he is white(and a white cop to boot…doubly evil), that is the measure, is it not? Somehow it is Ok and justified to hate others because they are different then you physically. Does that not make you all hypocrites? Oh yeah.
The officer was responding to a call of a possible breaking and entering in progress. Why did not Mr gates just calmly show his ID? That is what I would have done. This officer is only trying to protect someones property and life from criminal acts. Mr Gates and Obama(and all the racists here) both look like racist fools from where I’m standing.
Despite Obamas church schooling in Racism 101(taught by Mr Rev. Wright)and his fellowship with domestic terrorist Ayers, all the feel-good,guilty,liberal whites had to put this bozo into office. Good job. Now we get to fight his socialist, racist policies for 3 plus more years. Now somehow blacks(notice I don’t use African American? Not all Africans are black) think that Obama was put into office solely by their fellow black countrymen, whom comprise a mere 11% of the US population. So which is it? Are all whites racist or no? Did you say you are too busy hating whites to decide?
This garbage is so old, it’s time to lose the proverbial chip on your shoulders people.
I would tell Obummer to stuff that beer where the sun don’t shine.
The one thing that is beyond dispute in this entire ordeal is that those of us who voted for Obama believing his claim to be post-racial are all sorely disappointed. He is the biggest racist to occupy the White House in my lifetime.
A man of his power attacking a man of a different color without knowing the FACTS. All Obama needed to know was the color of the actors and he automatically knew which one acted stupidly.
HE IS A RCAIST…..straight up!
Crowley should get a beer with Obama and Gates and splash it in there faces. The only people who could possibly agree with them are racist blacks who think all white people have some sort of ulterior motive, and idiots who think he was arrested inside his home.
He followed Crowley out of the house where he was arrested after repeatedly being told to stop and following and screaming at the cop in front of a black cop and a Latino cop who wrote the police report. Nice try, but it really makes you look stupid to anyone who read the police report to be defending Gates. The only reason you defend him is because you are black and have something against white people or you believe Obama can do no wrong. And from what I have seen so far Obama has done ALOT of wrong. Way to alienate all of the independents that put you into office sir. You chose a black man over law enforcement just for being black.
The case itself is not controversial at all Gates just tried to make something of it and they should NOT have dropped the charges they should have made an example. When the police question you, you cooperate. But I guess if you are black in America its ok to freak out on the cops and then complain more of you are in jail so that shows racial profiling? Maybe blacks and Latinos as mr. Obama has said get pulled over disproportionately precisely because of the fact they commit more crimes per capita and even citing that fact makes one appear to be racist? This country is so far off what it was intended to be. I only hope the good American black people reading this story can see how ridiculous this whole situation is and see how race baiting just ruins credibility when there is not a true valid racial component to the story.
I cannot believe the ignorance of the president in this case. This is the equivalent of a white president siding with a white man over a black officer when all of the facts are against him. Obama should NOT have commented GATES should apologize or honestly this sets back race relations and makes me and basically everyone I have spoken with on the matter so angry as white Americans that it destroys our trust in the president.
Poor show mr. Obama. Poor show. You were elected president of ALL Americans not just the black ones. And to Gates I have only to offer this quote by Teddy Roosevelt “To educate a man in mind and not morals is to create a menace to society”. You are no scholar sir, you acted like a fool and you are being publicly castigated all over this country for it. The only people agreeing with you are doing so based on skin color and or lack of education. I would hope someone like yourself would be against that in principal but obviously you are not.
Barry Bonds: For being a teacher (albeit a substitute) you cite an FBI report to show whites do more crimes than blacks, but you forget the ethnic breakdown in America. If blacks were as large an ethnicity as whites, the crime stats would be so overwhelmingly committed by blacks than any other ethnicity, 73.9% of America is white, while only 13.5% are Black. But in your own FBI stats, blacks, who live mainly in the south & urban areas. This is where the violent crimes are being committed far ie; murder,rape,robbery,drugs etc. African-Americans are much more violent than any other ethnic group by far…
Barry Bonds; Once again you are citing stats that are misleading. Look at the stats you supplied (AGAIN, your supplied stats) and like I said in the previous post, by far the majority of so-called welfare states are in the predominately African-American populace, ie; the south. The cities like New Orleans, Atlanta, Houston, Dallas, Mobile, etc; yes the south tends to lean conservative, but the majority of the cities are black. All I have seen of your posts are racial diatribe…
—————————————————————————-
youarewrong; Yes you are wrong. 1st. off Gates does not own the home, Harvard does. 2nd, He (Gates) did not show ID showing he owned the home. He showed a Harvard ID, hence the call by Officer Crowley to Harvard. All throughout this ordeal, Gates raised the level at every opportunity he could. He was wrong, Crowley was very professional, & Gates was like a little child having a tantrum…
There it is plain as day, take a long hard look at it…
Affirmative Action’s Return on Investment
There used to be an old saying: “Need a Help, call a Hippy!” I guess it should be changed to “Need help, call a Blackman!”
This is another one Obamas, fiascos, and given enough time, we’ll all be asking Third World Countries to send AID to us. Obama’s form of goverfnment didn’t work for Russia, hasn’t worked for Cuba, nor any of the other Communist, Socialist and Dictatorship contries, but he of course knows better than History, because HE is the Black savior.
Aww c’mon people! lol

Time for a beer.
A former Dem press aide stated on a program the other day that President Obama “reherses answers to every question from his pressers several times over for each question”. This immediately implies that Obama not only knew that he would field the question about Gates arrest, but that he deliberately took it as the last question, and the only question that was not related to healthcare plan. Furthermore, that his answer was carefully crafted in response.
This would indicate that President Obama deliberately wanted to raise a race issue to show himself a “champion” of racially abused in order to defer attention from the rapid decline in momentum that was occuring with his universal healthcare plan.
Obama is not stupid, but rather very caculating, and for the elected leader of a democratic replublic, in a very frightening way. Who knows what will happen as his popularity declines further and his back is pushed up against the wall.

Further, that as only question that was not related to healthcare plan, his answer was carefully crafted in response.
This suggests that President Obama deliberately wanted to raise a “race event” into a national issue in order to create competing attention in the press from the rapid decline in momentum that was occurring with public support of his universal healthcare plan.
Obama is not stupid, but rather very calculating in every action. This has been evident from the very first step of his campaign for election. What should concern us all is that as the elected leader of a democratic republic, he exercises this calculated behavior in very frightening way. There is not a psychiatrist alive, who in frank honesty would not have to admit that the President is highly narcissistic (focused on himself) and from his actions and the extremist background of his czar hires displays some deep-seated issues of unresolved anger with non-black Americans. The question we must all ask ourselves, is that how will this hidden anger will manifest itself on a larger scale when his popularity declines further and his back is really pushed up against the wall.
WHEN HAVE WE SEEN POLICE, SO WILLINGLY, RELEASE AND TALK PROUDLY OF A 911 EMERGENCY CALL?
IF THIS IS AN INDICATION OF OTHER 911 CALLS NOT RELEASED DUE TO SELF INCRIMINATION?
OFFICER CROWLEY HAS FILED OR WROTE IN HIS POLICE REPORT OF THE DAY OF THE ARREST, THAT CROWLEY CLAIMS, THE (911 CALLER) INDICATED TO HIM AT THE SCENE, THE DAY OF THE ARREST THAT, SHE REPORTED TO CROWLEY, THAT (THERE WERE 2 BLACK MEN WITH BACK PACKS).
SOUNDS LIKE CROWLEY WAS SETTING HIMSELF UP AN ALIBI… (THERE WERE 2 BLACK MEN WITH BACK PACKS) THIS IS IN OFFICER CROWLEYS ARREST REPORT… hahahahahahahhaa lying cops.
http://www.amnation.com/vfr/Police%20report%20on%20Gates%20arrest.PDF
officer Crowley arrest report… notice where officer Crowley say’s he was informed by 911 caller that..reported: two black men with back packs… why would an officer report this when the 911 caller say’s she never made that claim?
When dealing with a police officer who you think is guilty of racially profiling you, most educated black men would know to ask for a name AND BADGE NUMBER. I find it interesting that there is no mention of Gates asking for Crowley’s badge number. I believe that is something a man like Gates would ask at a bare minimum. There seem to be huge gaps of intuitive information in the report.
Yes Gates is the one who acted “stupidly”. He was tired, in a bad mood, and he temporarily forgot the rules of the game. Interestingly enough the main people arguing that it was proper to arrest a man in his own home committing no crime, are the same ones who will raise hell about “big brother” telling us how to think, feel, and behave in our private lives. If this applies to you then please understand why it’s hard to take your rants seriously. Just lay down when they come for you.
I believe the cop gave Gates his name three times. I don’t really believe Gates asked ONLY for his name. I’m sure he requested the cops badge number and that might be why he followed him around getting irrate. It was probably never provided. If that is the case, Gates should know better.
“Oh you want to see my I? Well I want your name and badge number”! It quickly became a penis measuring contest. Crowley’s was bigger.

i am tired of black racism in america,blacks can be as racists as they want even toward one another and its alright,why is this behavour condoned in the black and hispanic communities towards whites,but if a white defends themselves and try to defuse a situation its automatically racism…when we stop racism among all peoples in the usa we might be able to move this country forward…
for your infor more blacks kill blacks then whites kill whites,,ever wonder why this is..where is common sense in america.

Officer was respectful from the very beginning and Gates was hateful, foul, elitist, moronic, confrontational, entitled, insulting, racist, racial profiling of the white officer, etc, from the beginning. Now which one should apologize to whom?
