Sgt James Crowley: Is Cop That Arrested Gates A Profiling Expert?

Here's an interesting, if provocative, thought: did comedian Dave Chappelle predict the Henry Louis Gates Jr incident?

Thanks, Jarrett for covering this story and sharing Dave Chappelle's prediction. 

thanks for the video Jarrett.

Both Gates and Obama owe Crowley an apology.  They are the racists.

I really think that some people require to hear what Obama said whilst answering a question from the media. His answer was offered as a view based on only the evidence on hand. 

At that time I would of offered the same opinion and I am a white free thinker. I can not see the remark of 'Stupid' being racially intent. What was seen as being stupid was the guy showed his ID and proved it was his house and then was still arrested.

Lets be fair and take out the Racial slant the arrested guy was an American citizen full stop!

Just because the media slipped this question in at the presidents speech on health care and the president kindly answered the question and offered a view concerning what he had gleaned from the evidence published at that time. Does not suggest racialism or that his view should be even taken into account.

If any thing he can only apologize for calling the police involved stupid.   At least Obama did not lie like most politicians would have and state he knew nothing about the case and could not make an opinion. Maybe he is too honest?

I have notice that in second video on offer what Obama had said after recieving the question was cut out by the news editors. The media of course is some what unfair some times due to its want for sensation. lol  

There is no evidence to indicate that Gates was a victim of racial profiling. To hurl reflexive, unfounded accusations of racism is to wrongly impugn a man who by all accounts seems to be a decent and professional public servant. Playing the race card is meant to achieve the moral high ground of victimhood while simultaneously silencing those who would dare disagree with you. Intentionally shutting down debate is a dangerous and disturbing trend, one that threatens the health of democracy. Gates and Obama should apologize to this officer for their shameful handling of this matter.

It is all about ego of the two persons, one with power and the other is of knowledge
Both must have acted stupidly by not respecting each other

I first wrote about this on Tues and basically said that Gates was a jack arse.

Now Obama opens his uninformed mouth and inserts his foot in it.

Gates said that <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 />Crowley didn't know who he was messing with.

Perhaps Gates is the one who didn't know who he was messing with.

Check out my take on it and the link to my Tue post. Also, please stick around for more good content.

I seem to recall a guy by the name of Al Sharpton, who in order to get his name in the news, accused a few NY police officers of gang-raping a black liar by the name of Tawa Brawley. Sharpton went on a crusade to destroy the reputations and jobs of the NY cops, blatanty calling them monsters and racist.

So. . .  eventually we learned that this little episode was manufactured by a few organizations such as CORE, the NAACP and Sharpton. After it was disclosed as a lie and hoax, did Sharpton apologize to the cops???? No way bro.

To all racist blacks in this country:  we all are  just getting a little sick and tried of your constant whines and pig squealings about racism.  You are the racist.  The White Community has bent over backwards to meet your constant demands.  The time has long arrived that when one talks about the need to be tolerate and not racist,in the past , the comments were always directed to the White Community.  The fact is that such a comment should now be directed to the black community.  You are the ones keeping this misery around.  Actually, you are able to whine because you are supported by  white liberal guilt.  Take that factor away and your base of constant damming of Whites would suffer greatly. 

 

One day the hope is that the jesse jacksons and al sharptons will no longer reap their blight of misery on this land and that blacks will come to realize that success is based on strong hard work and family structure and that they (blacks) are responsible for their own success or misery not their race. 

Clearly Crowley is not a racist.  As proof of this fact, Crowley recalled how on separate occasions he tried to save the lives of Carl Lewis and Peanuts the Golden Retriever.  It is time for Boston to rid itself of trouble makers like this so called professor. Send him back to where he came from.  Keep Boston ginger - Go Celts!

I can say from experience. When you are on a call like this you have no idea what you are dealing with.  It is not a black or white issue!  As a "half white"  I would have reacted in the same manor as SGT. Crowley regardless of race of  Gates.

What scares the hell out of me is Obama's reaction with not even knowing the facts.

Why Obama would say what he did is beyond me. 

Obama's statments were highly  irresponsible.

Can't We All Just Get Along?

My hat off to the police, they lay their lives on the line every day for every race , color and religious group. They are shot at, spit on, called every name in the book and yes they even die for every one regardless of race,creed, or color. Who do you call when you get robbed? I bet the good Professor calls the same people I do. I will also bet he doesn't ask for a police officer of a certain color. Every police officer carries a huge responabilty of negoatiater, wisdom, the ability to find the truth, understanding the facts, and trying to figure out whats going on. If I was told to shut up or provide information by the officer, I would comply post hast. And for those of you that think I'm pro police and anti black think again. I'm PRO BOTH. We are all Americans trying to do whats right. Open minds, closed mouths, and  the ability to walk in the someones elses shoes would go a long way to bring the racial problems to a end. 

I think Gates is a trouble maker.  Trying to divide the American people further.  Racism will always exist as long as humanity is alive.  The American people as a whole obviously showed in the last elections that they are not as racist as Gates wants people to think we are.  Most of us voted for a black president!  The racist here is the Harvard profesor, who made a bad move.  Trying to divide the American people, as if we don't have more important issues at hand today.   Terrorists waiting to attack our nation, Korea, our healthcare system (which will affect all of us!), the economy...etc..

It is disapointing that President Obama carelessly chose his words... He is after all the President elect, START ACTING LIKE IT!  As far as Gates goes, he's a trouble maker and obviously a sad and troubled man.
