Just like not jumping to conclusions and calling a white cop racist and the saying the department acted stupid?
While at the very same time admitting he did not have all the facts...#624 | POSTED BY 2008ATL AT 2009-11-06 03:11 PM
How in the name of Father Mike did you debunk anything? By being ignorant to the facts on hand? If Gates was so innocent, why hasn't he sued? All Gates did was make Obama look as fucking racist and stupid as he is, by only listening to his and his lawyer Ogletree's side.#648 | POSTED BY CRISPEE_OC AT 2009-11-06 06:02 PM
Ok, let's see Obama's actual statement, then compare it to the FACTS of the case boys... (as in Good Ol Boys) and see who is right.
He then went on to discuss what happened after the police showed up at Gates' home.
"My understanding is, at that point, Professor Gates is already in his house," he said. "The police officer comes in. I'm sure there's some exchange of words. But my understanding is, is that Professor Gates then shows his I.D. to show that this is his house and, at that point, he gets arrested for disorderly conduct, charges which are later dropped.
"Now, I don't know, not having been there and not seeing all the facts, what role race played in that," Mr. Obama continued. "But I think it's fair to say, number one, any of us would be pretty angry; number two, that the Cambridge police acted stupidly in arresting somebody when there was already proof that they were in their own home; and, number three, what I think we know separate and apart from this incident is that there's a long history in this country of African-Americans and Latinos being stopped by law enforcement disproportionately. That's just a fact."

Now, as I posted Judge Neowhateveritis, the fox shill's own words......
Judge Andrew Napolitano, a Fox News judicial analyst, explained to Shepard Smith on Monday that under Massachusetts law, Cambridge Sergeant Jim Crowley did act improperly by arresting historian Henry Louis Gates.
His argument essentially boils down to the difference between public and private domain. As Crowley arrested Gates for causing a "public disturbance," the action is improper on its face due to the fact that Gates was in his own home. Additionally, Napolitano said, it was illegal for the police to enter the house to begin with, as the source of the report did not pass legal muster to constitute probable cause.
Napolitano added that because of the violation of Gates's constitutional rights, he would be eligible to pursue legal action against the police department.

I'm laughing at your bs about Gates raising his voice because in this country it isn't a crime to cuss out or raise your voice to cops, especially in your own home.....is it 2008?? (Well maybe in Georgia and VA, if you are black, eh?)
1. Again, I ask, WHO BROKE THE LAW.....
Don't wanna answer that question, do yas?
Why didn't Gates sue? Because after cooler heads prevailed when Obama had them over for a beer, there was no need. Gates doesn't need the cash, eh? Obviously, he would win a civil case, as neoapolantianiio whatever points out....(a rw fox shill, no less)
2. If Gates broke the law, why were the charges dropped nearly immediately?
3. Do you know what FALSE ARREST is? Or what our civil rights in our home are?....even black folk?
