Fox Legal Analyst Say Gates Was Improperly Arrested

Turns out the law says you can't arrest someone for making a public
disturbance in his own home... That means Gates shouldn't have been
arrested no matter how ****y or derogatory the statements he made to
the police officer. Nor, should the police have entered the house at
all without probable cause, which was not established.

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.

Yeah, slightly built (150 pounds) nearly 60-year old professors who walk
with the aid of a cane...they're notorious for "screwing with the cops."

As soon as the cop realized he was dealing with the resident and no
crime was taking place, he should have said, "Sorry...we got a report of
a breaking and entering...have a nice day."

At that point Gates might have said, "Thanks for doing your job...you, too."

If you are unarmed, non-threatening and within your rights, there's no
reason to take any crap from any super-officious or obnoxious guys in
uniform, not in this country.

that is your position in life, then anything goes.
