    Hope the beer supply is kept to one or two each. This could turn ugly.

    Gates says it's time to 'move on' from his arrest - Yahoo! News

    "Black Harvard scholar Henry Louis Gates Jr. says he's ready to move on from his arrest by a white police officer, hoping to use the encounter to improve fairness in the criminal justice system and saying "in the end, this is not about me at all."

    After a phone call from President Barack Obama urging calm in the aftermath of his arrest last week, Gates said he would accept Obama's invitation to the White House for a beer with him and Cambridge police Sgt. James Crowley."
    "Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect,"

    ^or conversely every black person is going to be screaming racism in an attempt to score an invite to a pissup with their homey prez at the 'White' house. Is that racist?

    Great news: BO's buddy Henry Louis Gates is still screeching over the racial incident he staged by forcing police to arrest him for disorderly conduct:





    Undoubtedly, this guy is a cockroach...

    ^ I think that's a pre-Obama make peace interview.
    It was Gates' "do you know who I am" and "your mama" comments that were the most laughable. I have his address; we should start sending him sympathy cards.

    Black Cops are probably more racists than White cops, even when arresting other blacks

    Very true, and more so when being a lead man or foreman in charge of a crew of blacks.

    ^He isn't referring to any riots, just their racist inciting..And just listing the three amigos.

    Yeah, that's them, I would call them the three stooges but I don't want to disparage the stooges as I liked them, at least they were entertaining, Maybe the three amigos instead as I hated that movie..

    Don't know why I had a brain fart and couldn't remember a common name like Wright though? probably one of those worthless pieces of information we just block out in our lives..

    Not a trick of memory, but just not important enough to make an impression.

    ^ True.

    Here's an ending to a Bloomberg op piece today. (The rest is largely a rehash of the Gates arrest).

    “Once you’re yelling at a police officer in front of the public,” says Peter Moskos, a criminologist at John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York, “it’s no surprise he got locked up. Cops don’t lose face.”
    Minorities probably are disproportionately arrested for contempt of cop. The Seattle Post-Intelligencer concluded that in a report last year.
    But in the Gates-Crowley encounter, only one of them indisputably had race on his mind from the start. And it wasn’t Crowley.

    I found it interesting that several media initially accused the 911 caller as racist for sayig two "black" men were trying to bust into the house. Not true as the tapes were released and proved she did not -- she even called them "gentlemen". But, the dispatcher asked her if the men were white, black or hispanic. Hey! What about Asians, Indians, Arabs...

    Nothing new for Obama and his side kick VP. They talk without having all the information. Same thing with their policies.

    yeah, let's take a look at that police report and the lies contained within....

    The woman whose 911 call led to the arrest of Harvard scholar Henry Louis Gates Jr. spoke publicly for the first time about the case Wednesday, contradicting the arresting police officer on a key point
    A police report said the caller described the possible burglars as "two black males with backpacks" — leading some commentators to vilify the caller as racist since it turned out Gates was entering his own home.

    But the 911 recording released by police showed that Lucia Whalen never said two black men were involved. She did not describe their race, acknowledged they might just be having a hard time with the door and said she saw two suitcases on the porch.
    crowley acted stupidly.....and then lied in the police report to cover his stupidity....and cambridge police department covered its own ass by dropping the charges.


    The arresting officer, Sgt. James Crowley, has said his information on the race of the suspects came during a brief encounter with Whalen outside Gates' house. Whalen contradicted that Wednesday, saying she made no such description and that the only words he uttered were for her to stay where she was.
    i hope she files some sort of suit against this lying cop..
