The Cambridge cop prominent Harvard University professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. claims is a racist gave a dying Reggie Lewis mouth-to-mouth resuscitation in a desperate bid to save the Celtics [team stats] superstars life 16 years ago Monday.
I wasnt working on Reggie Lewis the basketball star. I wasnt working on a black man. I was working on another human being, Sgt. James Crowley, in an exclusive interview with the Herald, said of the forwards fatal heart attack July 27, 1993, at age 27 during an off-season practice at Brandeis University, where Crowley was a campus police officer.

I heard one analyst on a local Boston news station this morning say that it looks like he *will* sue.And if he does the City of Cambridge will settle....for a serious sum.And if they don't settle he'll win and win big.Because,as I said before,this *is* Massachusetts after all.
Glad to see the other side of the story being told.
Has Rev. Al shown up yet? Yes, racism is still aroud, we have to look no further than a Gates or Rev. Al to see it.
I'll give you that, but recall Bush 41 called the ATF "jack-booted thugs."
I wonder if he pays any rent for that house?
Black house breakers are probably licking their chops at the prospect of Gates taking another trip and leaving his home unattended.
The next time police respond to a break and enter call at the Gates residence and some black man packing silverware into a pillowcase says “I live here, go away.” what are the odds the police will try to make certain he actually does live there and is not a thief?
“The sad thing is that most politicians in the City of Cambridge and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts *agree* with and *support* the “professor” in this case.”
You’re probably right. It makes me fear for the future of our country.
I've heard that Harvard actually owns it.Living there is probably one of the perks that the "professor" gets as part of his (*very* generous) compensation package.
LOL!!!!!!!
Sooo glad I wasn’t drinking anything when I saw that.
I hope there’s never a fire there either, ‘cause something tells me the fire apparatus will be slow to arrive on the scene.
I’ll say it again since the duplicate thread I posted on was pulled.
“its time we gave Obama and all the shameless race baiters foot to *ass resuscitation”.
Clearly Gates has a log on his shoulder.
Gates saw an open door opportunity and blasted through it. No witnesses, cry foul, shame Whitey, sue and reap more money from the system. Uppity, immature attitudes will automatically assume the white cop stopping and checking the innocent black man was doing so because the cop is racist. It’s the same old scam. Burglars should be lining up at his door now, as who would want to risk protecting it after this? If Gates proceeds with ANYTHING, the hornet’s nest will be broken wide open. If he is a true and gracious intellect, he’ll leave it behind.
There is prejudice in this country. Its NOT the same thing as racism.
Prejudice and discrimination are survival techniques.
Being discriminating is not racism, it is methodical scrutiny, an examination of a situation.
In this case the cop saw an irrational angry uncooperative man.
That made his radar go off. Race was not the defining factor.
Bush 41 never called the ATF “jack-booted thugs.” I believe it was NRA director Wayne LaPierre who said this, which prompted Bush to resign his NRA membership.
Now that I think about it, you’re absolutely correct. I apologize for my error.
With all this foolishness house breakers "of color" will,understandably,assume that it's open season on the rich neighborhoods of the city.And when the cops get the 911 call,well.........
God has a very funny sense of humor about exposing people who they really are.
Obama really stepped in it this time. I guess since this whole nation is burning to the ground economically, you might as pour some gasoline called “false racism” on the fire and you get a nation coming apart at the seams.
Thank you, Comrade Obama!
And when the dust has settled he'll have *lots* more $$$ in his wallet.
Yup. You are correct, but I wont be one of the dolts that buy what he is peddling.
“lied about the facts??? the native born kenyan admitted he didnt know the facts but had an opinion on the outcome anyway....”
An opinion most likely supplied from the same type source that declared Jim Thompson owner of FR.
