If Gates had been a white man breaking into some house and had no ID to prove it was his own house, the police certainly wouldn’t have questioned that. They would have gone away and left him to go about his business. Clearly they only arrested him because he was black. There’s no other explanation possible. /s

I just looked up the Gates story. He had his I.D., but was arrested for disorderly conduct for actin' a fool, and yellin' "yo mama" and assorted crap like that..
