The officer in question has witnesses, including a responding black

Gates on the other hand is an officious Harvard prig who has used his
"do you know who I am" attitude in confrontations with airport
security at Logan to confrontations with security guards and hospital
employees including his own staff.

Add to that - his neighbors hate his guts. That's got to tell you
something.




Cops lying for cops lying for cops lying for cops.

What else is new?


Harry, your logic circuit breaker tripped again. Reset it, read Tom's
post again and try again.

Tom has a kid who is a cop. Therefore, he is predisposed to believe cops.

I am not so predisposed.

The sergeant should have known better. He overreacted to a nearly
60-year old slightly built man who needs a cane to get around. The cop
should have said, "Sorry, we're just doing our jobs...have a nice
day..." and left.

As for one cop vouching for another...I'm not impressed.

Remember Amadou Bailo Diallo, the 23-year-old Guinean immigrant in New
York City who was shot and killed on February 4, 1999 by four New York
City Police Department plain-clothed officers? You know...the subject of
the song 41 Shots? The case in which Diallo was murdered by out of
control cops who lied for each other and got off?
