Hey New Republic - why is it that people like “Skip” Gates can say “your mama” to a police officer - one who came to defend Gates’ life and property at the risk of his own. Gates curses the officer’s mother. Why no mention of this.
No racial profiling. The liberals are angry that the cop didn’t stand there and be called a racist and have his mother cursed and walk away.
Back in the day where I grew up, if anyone spoke like this to a cop they would be missing a few teeth.
Gates made this a minstrel show. He goaded them into the arrest. You cannot curse police officers, nor their mothers and expect to walk away. It was an awful exhibition, even the black cop admitted it and said the Crowley was in the right.
I have worn matching silver bracelets for saying much less than that to a cop.
