I'm figuring that maybe Gottlieb, at least, was really unhappy at being involved as Nifong's tool to prosecute a case that Gottlieb thought shouldn't go forward since Gottlieb knows "it's a crock" and especially since Gottlieb maybe doesn't like black people in the first place.
I'm wondering if the incident at the sports bar was maybe:
1) an explosion of pent up rage at a random black person for having to be Nifong's sock puppet and help put over a racial hoax
and/or
2) a conscious or unconscious attempt by Gottlieb to ruin Gottlieb's value as a witness so Gottlieb is removed from the Duke rape investigation. Yeah, Gottlieb gets a reprimand in his file but he doesn't have to get up in court and lie for Nifong which could be a very bad move if there is a crapstorm (may it be so) in Nifong's future.

Amazing.
I guess great minds think alike. Hopefully that is the case here. ;)
I had thoughts almost identical to yours.
We have no idea whether Gottlieb had anything at all to do with the alleged incident in Raleigh.
But I had been thinking that, if he did do something wrong there, it could be because of his rage at (possibly) being used in the Duke lacrosse case.
I just have a hard time coming down hard on the AV or the Durham police. For me, everything in this fiasco leads back to Mr. Mike Nifong.
