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

For ****s sake...what do you not understand about "I USED YOUR OWN WIKIPEDIA ARTICLE?" Why post a link? You already linked it, I don't need to link it again...it was your ****ing source.

This whole exchange is testament to the fact that you don't pay attention. You didn't read your own article and you didn't read my post.

A third piece, from a third source:

Modern obstruction of justice, in United States jurisdictions, refers to the crime of offering interference of any sort to the work of police, investigators, regulatory agencies, prosecutors, or other (usually government) officials. Often, no actual investigation or substantiated suspicion of a specific incident need exist to support a charge of obstruction of justice. Common law jurisdictions other than the United States tend to use the wider offense of Perverting the course of justice.

Police Definitions one playwright. one blog.
 
You, or anyone else waving their **** at passing cars, has nothing to do with this topic.
The man was strongly voicing his opinion on his own property and the Officer was wrong for arresting him.

I gotta tell ya, your fancy fonting really makes the difference since your argument has already been proven wrong.
 
What proof do you offer that he is a racist?[/qutoe]

You mean besides his automatic assumption that a white cop is a racist?

Okay.

How about the fact that he's chairing the Department of Racism at Hahvahd? Hahvahd calls it, in proper socialist double speak, the Department of African American Studies. Can't not be a racist and get that job, that's beyond dispute.

Then there's the testimony Gates gave stating that 2 Live Crew's obscene lyrics were on the same artistic level as Shakespeare's and Chaucer.

The only thing the arrest proves is that he was tired and moody after a long trip.

The only thing his arrest proves is that the racist was so arrogant he refused to shut his yapping trap when asked, and broke the law, as well.

Nice to see Democrats will still make excuses for their favorite racists.
 
A third piece, from a third source:

I hate to point this out to you, but you are quoting sources that are just repeating the wikipedia text. Nothing more. You realize that doesn't exactly help you right smart guy?

Now, you ever gonna come out from behind wikipedia and actually debate me on this subject? Because I trashed your argument.

Or are you going to find a FOURTH source that quotes the wikipedia article? :rofl
 
Why do you keep making this irrelevant argument? There is a major difference between exercising your freedom of speech and indecent exposure. There is a law against indecent exposure.

There is also a law against disorderly conduct.

I laugh at people who keep thinking they can say/do anything they wish on their own porch, as though the porch is some sort of "base" (like playing tag) to acting like a fool in plain view (sound) of the entire neighborhood.
 
:doh

The same opinion he voiced to the officer INSIDE the home?
What purpose do you think coming outside to continue to yell at the officer had? Its my property (porch) so I can? Nyaa nyaa nya nyaaa nyaa?

Im certain that opinion had been noted. Continuing the scream like an idiot on the porch after several warnings only served the purpose to create a public disturbance by acting disorderly, as I am damn certain that the officer already knew Gate's racist opinion, and thus Gate's continued yelling and ranting served no purpose except to draw a crowd and alarm the public, which it did.


I don't give a **** where he was located, his purpose was clear, even without a mind reading device (lerxst) or a person who made a formal complaint (lerxst).

**Im not going into this silly argument again.

The effect it was supposed to have, was that he was going to show that white boy who was boss. The mayor is black, the governer is black, the president is black and that cracker bastard wasn't going to get away with that ****. That's what that was all about. And, anyone that doesn't see that is living in a fantasy world.
 
... your argument has already been proven wrong.
No it hasn't.

Except for 'terrorist threats', yeah they should be able to say anything they want, as loud as they want, for a short period of time, as long as it doesn't constitute a continual breach to the peace.

They were both wrong, but the Officer was more wrong.



You said you were done with this, yet had just asked a question. ???
The same opinion he voiced to the officer INSIDE the home?
Yes the same opinion.



... his purpose was clear, even without a mind reading device ...
Well in that case, we can then read into the Officer's actions too, without the aid of a mind reading device.
Being an Officer he knows how to word his reports.
He should have immediately left after Gates identified himself.
The Officer purposely lead him to come out onto the porch, knowing full well the state of mind Gates was in.
Stating that Gates surprised and alarmed the onlookers (if on his property - trespassers) is bs.
The Officer created the situation, in the performance of his duties, and could have diffused it without resorting to arrest.
 
Cop obviously thought Gates was a smart enough criminal to put pictures of he and his family around the house to fool the authorities.

LOLOL

There were pictures? Can you post me the pictures of his pictures that the officer stood around and observed?
