Napolitano is wrong about not being able to arrest someone for making
a public disturbance on their own property. Arrests are made for that
every weekend. You having a wild party at your house, you can be
arrested. And the arrest will stick. You have sex on your front
lawn. You think you can not be arrested?


Yep. We held a wedding and reception on our property in Florida. Band
music was loud and eventually, as the evening became late complaints
were filed. I had two visits from the police. One was a warning. The
second was an immediate demand to kill the music and quiet down or the
bride and groom would spend their honeymoon night in jail.

I cooperated with the police.

Locked into a cell on the wedding night...kinky! :)

That wasn't the circumstance, as you well know.

Of course not. Police lie. All the time. Bad, bad police.
Better off without them.

Are you putting words in my mouth or just being petulant?

Ah yes, the smoking gun. Probably equally as faithful as Fox News,
Worldnet Daily or the Washington Times.

You know the problem is that you don't like what the police report says,
so therefore people like you and Harry automatically go to the "police
lie" routine.

If the police lie, then we truly live in a lawless society.
If we live in a lawless society, you may as well make it worth your

You "tout" police reports as if they were documents that have been vetted
by anyone other than cops covering their backsides.

Oh...and there seem to be some "discrepancies" between the police report
and Crowley's statements.

And Clark signed an agreement to let things be. As he most likely showed up
bad on the police video. But he is the one to break that agreement to pimp
some documentary he is or has made.

I know enough about the social history of this country to understand why
people of color are suspicious of cops, and how and why the elected
leaders of your chosen political party are using racism on a daily basis
to keep this country as divided as possible. Yours is the political
party of southern white bigots. Anti-black racism, when it isn't being
discussed openly, is bubbling there right below the surface.

Oh no, Richard's an "independent."

Ask Glenn Beck...your boy Herring's hero. He's dripping racism, and his
ratings on Fox News are rising...because he is selling your boys...your
white Republican males...what they want to hear.

Oh yeah. They don't like havin' a black boy runnin' things. You can
see it in the birther's eyes. It's nothing to do with a certificate,
it's about his daddy bein' black.

I don't think you are a racist, but I do think you have your head in the
sand on this issue. Spend an hour or two reading freerepublic.com and
you will find your conservative republican base at its basest. Dig deep
into the birther issues, and you'll find it has nothing to do with where
Obama was born, and everything to do with his skin color.

Absolutely. He's Kenyan. He ain't no Merican.

It may have been his honest recollection that the caller said
something about black.

She didn't say anything about color but that's what he saw in his
mind's eye as she was describing the situation.

It's just part of our conditioning.

If you screw with the cops and won't stop, you get arrested no matter
who you are. That is simply true, fair or not.

I do not see any racial component here at all beyond Gates' racist
comments. White guys get arrested for this every day.

The only thing I would have suggested to Crowley is he should have
continued to walk away from this rant and waited until Gates got to
the street to arrest him. I am sure it would have happened anyway,
Perhaps so, but he didn't. He should never have engaged Gates in the
way he did. Lost his cool and didn't recover.

People screw with the cops all the time. The cops rarely react in the
way Crowley did. They're taught to calm things, not incite them.

"in their own home".


He wasn't arrested in his home, He was outside on the porch, where he
followed Crowley, still screaming at him. Significant legal
difference. I agree Crowley should have kept moving and arrested him
when he got to the street tho.
BTW this guy "who needs a cane" managed to chase Crowley outside
without it so he isn't all that crippled.

I'm sure Gates represented a significant threat to the officer and the
neighborhood.

Crowley never should have engaged or responded to Gates hissyfit.

He is probably a gun nut.

And you're probably taking bong hits.

I am rapidly approaching 60 years old and have a quite full bucket of life
experience. That adult experience started with almost 9 years in the
military service, entered into at a time when race relations were not what
they are today. Trust me. That was a crash course in the racial
disharmony that existed in the 60's.

I agree, as would anyone with half a brain, that there's still progress to
be made and racism still exists.
But we need to be careful that in the altruistic desire to achieve perfect
equality, respect and color blindness that people like you don't have *your*
heads so buried in the sand that you can't recognize and appreciate the
progress than has been made and therefore assume any event involving a
minority or person of color is representative of racism.

BTW, you are certainly a bit narrow in your thinking as well. Despite your
assumptions and repeated accusations, I am not a "Republican". Not a
"Democrat" either. I've pointed this out to you many times since you
decided I am not a big Obama fan in some things, yet you seem to think that
automatically makes me "one of them".

You like Palin more than I do.

I've never stated or intimated progress was not being made. It is.

For the reasons I have stated, that she will lead the GOP to more
defeats, I do like Palin. I wish her every success in staying prominent
in the GOP...

She's so mavericky! She loves Alaska and wants so much to do right by
Alaska that she quit. Dang that's mavericky!

I wish her every success too. She and Glenn Beck would make one hell
of a Fox & Friends Replacement team. We'd have cities burnin' before
you know it!

Just because you are a drug user, do not accuse me of it. Last time I
smoked Pot, as was still a student at San Francisco State U. And did not
seem to have much effect on me. Had given up smoking years before, so that
was also against the use of pot. Rest of the drugs were much to scary to
try. I worked on a direct path from the Haight-Asbury to Union Square in
downtown SF. The speed freaks would want to come in and watch the flashing
computer lights. The days when computer rooms were advertising fishbowls
with exterior windows. Which drug are you abusing these days?
