Frankly, I would be pissed too if someone entered my home and arrested me for “demanding a badge number.” Once they knew he was in his own home the cop should have walked away, and left it at that. It was beyond stupidity to arrest him.

Last thing I heard was that Gates got arrested out on his sidewalk. The incident was done, the cops were leaving and then Gates decided that he still wanted to give another piece of his mind to the cops so he came out and confronted them some more.

The cop tried repeatedly to tell Gates his name but Gates kept shouting over him. After reading teh police report I don’t know if Gates should have been arrested, I just know Obama as president shouldn’t have put both feet into this mess.

This also is an elitism issue, the “stupid” police vs the Harvard “genius”.
