This isn't the big issue here. The issues here is the biased comments from the President of the Untied States, when he admitted himself, he did not have all the facts, and then went on to comment about how Latinos and Blacks are victims or police racism, and are pulled over for no reason.

How is it possible, that the President admitted he knew Gates, admitted he was biased, admitted he did not know the facts, yet then made one sided comments? Comments that were only meant to fan the embers of racial tensions.

So, as good little freepers, let us all help to take the “race” out of this issue.

Try reading the post. I was not talking about Freepers, but the *bigger* issue of the Presidents comments to millions of people.

Any comment from you about that?

Technically, Obama is right. It was stupid and about all you have to hear is that the arrest was made AFTER identification had been presented to the cop to realize that it was indeed stupid.

Now, this issue can proceed as a racial profiling issue, which will be good for minorities who really do have to go thru this kind of crap, or it can be seen as what it is, abuse of power by the police which helps all Americans.
