Gates says it's time to 'move on' from his arrest

Terms like "acting disorderly" are a bit to vauge for my liking.You think this cant be abused?

Doesn't matter.

It wasn't abused in this case.

So be done with it already.

I bring ya back to the idea people should be arrested in the public interest i dont see this in this situation.The police should of let this go.

The police were doing their job.

The race baiting bigot college professor should have behaved in a manner consistent with his age, his education, and his position in the community, instead of acting like some kind of stereotypical abused welfare mammy.

Since he insisted in behaving as an out-of-countrol raving possibly dangerous fool...in public, he was treated EXACTLY like ANYONE else would have been treated.

You're merely protesting the fair treatment of the asshole and the bigot.
 
You really think he needed to be arrested to prove that?

Do you think that Gates needed to raise all that hell just to prove he lived there?

Personally, I think he should have been arrested for obstruction of justice for interferring with an ongoing investigation.

How can we expect the cops to do their jobs effectively if they let it go everytime somone raises hell at them, because they feel they're not having their asses kissed in the manner they think they deserve.
 
Re: Gates says it's time to 'move on' from his arrest...

...well, it can happen if he really wants to........!?:roll:

But isnt your home your castle?

In my opinion it is.
The police were wrong for over-reacting, and for taking action based on cruise control rather than rational thought.
But Gates also reacted "wrong" -, IMO, he has that right as he was on his own property.
Have the Cambridge police ever had any sensitivity training ?? or is this even possible...similar to "ethics" training to American executives..

In this particular case, there were how many police ?
How many Gates ?
Obstruction of "justice" ??
What "justice" ?
If I were Gates, I'd be very angry, and very embarrassed...and I'd still expect to be treated with respect, not as a common criminal.
We need better police...
 
I heard a caller on Errol Lewis' morning show say she knew Gates over 30 years, and saw him fly off on someone before. She said he's a "hothead".
 
I believe it's possible that this racist wants to move on because someone who is actually intelligent got to the dummy and told him he was open to the law suit hinted at by the Sgt. who busted the mouthy jerk.
In the court of public opinion only extreme racists came down on his side and even that began to go away when Obama was inundated with with messages pointing out that he, Obama was also a racist.

What GATES did was very bad indeed and he is getting his appropriate smacking around. The way that pres. Obama responded was foolish, inappropriate, and nnot all that smart at te monent in time. Yet let us be honest and serious here for a change what Pres. Obma said was hardly "racist". GMAB !!!

Let's be serious what Gates did was stupid. What the police did was apparently an over -reaction to GATE'S OVER-REACTION.

You had two guys swinging their dicks at each other. Never get in a dick-fight with a cop.

He was acting like a common criminal, why shouldn't he have been treated like one?

Where is it written in law that one citizen must be arrested by only one cop?

The police didn't over react, hence they were not wrong.

Whacking that racist pig in the head with a "baton", that would have been appropriate...but over-reacting.

Gates was wrong. No doubt about that.

He's a racist bigot, he's almost always wrong.

The cops didn't do anything wrong.

The cop that arrested Gates was an instructor for Cambridge PD's "racial profiling sensitivity" training program.

There was nothing to be 'sensitive' about. Gates was behaving in the vile vulgar public behavior one expects from racists, and was arrested for creating a public disturbance.

Sure they did. They arrested a man for committing a crime with no victim where a victim is required.

No victim is required under the public disturbance law cited on this thread.

If you have another reference to Massachussetts law or any Cambridge ordinances, lets' see them.

All that was required for that turd to be arrested was for him to continue his tirade in a public place, like from his front porch.

He did that.

Also, there were public witnesses to the matter.

Something you have learn as you grow up is that the cops know the laws on these matters better than the criminals and they know when the lines are crossed and they can safely arrest someone. Crowley was not a rookie.

He wasn't arrested for public disturbance, he was arrested for disorderly conduct. And yes, if you are going to arrest a person for alarming someone, as Crowley indicated in his report, you need to identify the person who was actually alarmed.

Something that YOU personally have to learn is not to speak about things you are completely unfamiliar with unless you enjoy risking your credibility.

Crowley ****ed that report up. I called it day one and pointed out exactly why in other threads.

Whatev.

You pick the words you want to see. He was properly arrested for breaking the law.

You mean like when you start babbling about how Gates didn't break the law when he did?

Don't worry, I stick to the facts and don't wander into liberal lalalalalalalalala (see how liberals get stuck there? Only supposed to be two la's) land.

I gotta hand it to you Lerxst, you are the voice of reason this thread--and other related threads--needed. It was exactly as you said (well someone said it). It was a case of two blowhards meeting.

The damage that happens when egos collide is amazing, isn't it?
 
Whatev.

What???? I picked my words right from Officer Crowley's report. I don't know where you came up with peace disturbance from, but that was not what he was arrested for. :rofl

The cops did nothing wrong.
Yes. They did.

Don't start crying on me now. I have proven in multiple threads where Crowley screwed up in this arrest. Unlike you, I am an expert on law enforcement. A recognized expert. You are a hyper partisan wonder hack who apparently doesn't even read up on the subjects he decides to yammer on about. All you do is try to figure out who the "liberal" is and go on the attack. **** the facts, you only need to fix a target and you simply operate off your "anti-liberal attack strategy" notes.

Yeah, which facts would those be by chance? If I were you I'd start by reading up on the topic you are trying to discuss there champ.

What I find so outrageously funny about this is that people go nuts over the Fairness Doctrine, "how dare they try to stifle free speec!" Yet when a liberal professor gets arrested for simply using his voice (that is all the **** he did, nothing more) while on his own property, they are all like "he deserved it he's a criminal."

Whining little piss pant hypocrites.

I really must have been listening to another case since I thought that Gate's profession was professor but you say it's "turd" ? [QUOTE"All that was required for that turd to be arrested [/QUOTE]

Wow !! you took that guy too the woodshed. I had stated early on that I thought both Gates and the policeman over-reacted. The policeman could have just kept walking away from the professor and let the professor behave like a lunatic. I think the two of them were trying to one up each other. Unfortunately for the proff the policeman has the gun and the handcuffs!!!

Gates just didn't know whne to shut up. He should have stopped his rant and filed a complaint with the chief in the morning.

And when Crowley turned to walk away, Gates could have put a knife in his neck, too.

Yes.

Anyone wasting their life and the lives of their students with some economically pointless and socially useless program of study like "African American Studies" is a professional turd.

That college got a course called "White Boy Studies"?

Nope.
 
It is my opinion that Gate's brought all this upon himself.

His attempt to "cry black" will hurt future, more legitimate, claims of racial prejudice.

Now, he wants it all to just go away and move on. Can't say I blame him. He has made himself out to look like a fool. Obama too.
