I believe there is a considerable amount of racial profiling taking
place in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and not just by the police. I read
where the prof was "turned in" by his white next door neighbor at 12:30 pm.

Gates produced ID while in his house. At the point, the cops should have
left. Period. While it is a good idea to be polite to cops, it isn't
legal requirement, especially when they are in your house after you have
produced ID.

If you plan on shooting people you better work on you "talking to
cops" skills.



I have no plans to shoot anyone. Nice try, though.
