Just watching a local interview with the arresting officer.

There's another side to the story, folks.

Makes you wonder *who* was acting "stupidly".

One would expect the cop to have "another side," eh?



The reporter also interviewed friends, neighbors, acquaintances all of whom
rejected any notion of him being a racist or "bad cop". Just the opposite,
in fact.

Furthermore, the police report contains many more details of the event that
have been "overlooked" by most of the media and, apparently the POTUS.

Nobody initially knew who Gates was or why he was there. Gates was not
particularly cooperative, according to the official report and refused
several legitimate requests to provide identification. All he did was make
derogatory remarks related to the arresting officer's mother, according to
the report. His lack of simple, civil cooperation resulted in his arrest.

Believe what you want.
