Terms like "acting disorderly" are a bit to vauge for my liking.You think this cant be abused?
I bring ya back to the idea people should be arrested in the public interest i dont see this in this situation.The police should of let this go.
You really think he needed to be arrested to prove that?

But isnt your home your castle?
Personally, I think he should have been arrested for obstruction of justice for interferring with an ongoing investigation. A man trying to "break into" his own house ???
How can we expect the cops to do their jobs effectively if they let it go everytime somone raises hell at them, because they feel they're not having their asses kissed in the manner they think they deserve.
I believe it's possible that this racist wants to move on because someone who is actually intelligent got to the dummy and told him he was open to the law suit hinted at by the Sgt. who busted the mouthy jerk.
In the court of public opinion only extreme racists came down on his side and even that began to go away when Obama was inundated with with messages pointing out that he, Obama was also a racist.
In this particular case, there were how many police ?
How many Gates ?
Obstruction of "justice" ??
What "justice" ?
If I were Gates, I'd be very angry, and very embarrassed...and I'd still expect to be treated with respect, not as a common criminal.
We need better police...
Let's be serious what Gates did was stupid. What the police did was apparently an over -reaction to GATE'S OVER-REACTION.

No he wasn't. He was acting like an asshole. Get your facts straight.He was acting like a common criminal, why shouldn't he have been treated like one?
In my opinion it is.
The police were wrong for over-reacting, and for taking action based on cruise control rather than rational thought.
But Gates also reacted "wrong" -, IMO, he has that right as he was on his own property.
Have the Cambridge police ever had any sensitivity training ?? or is this even possible...similar to "ethics" training to American executives..
No he wasn't. He was acting like an asshole. Get your facts straight.
The police didn't over react, hence they were not wrong.
Whacking that racist pig in the head with a "baton", that would have been appropriate...but over-reacting.
Gates was wrong. No doubt about that.
He's a racist bigot, he's almost always wrong.
The cops didn't do anything wrong.
The cop that arrested Gates was an instructor for Cambridge PD's "racial profiling sensitivity" training program.
There was nothing to be 'sensitive' about. Gates was behaving in the vile vulgar public behavior one expects from racists, and was arrested for creating a public disturbance.
Sure they did. They arrested a man for committing a crime with no victim where a victim is required.
No victim is required under the public disturbance law cited on this thread.
If you have another reference to Massachussetts law or any Cambridge ordinances, lets' see them.
All that was required for that turd to be arrested was for him to continue his tirade in a public place, like from his front porch.
He did that.
Also, there were public witnesses to the matter.
Something you have learn as you grow up is that the cops know the laws on these matters better than the criminals and they know when the lines are crossed and they can safely arrest someone. Crowley was not a rookie.
He wasn't arrested for public disturbance, he was arrested for disorderly conduct.
Something that YOU personally have to learn is not to speak about things you are completely unfamiliar with unless you enjoy risking your credibility.
He wasn't arrested for public disturbance, he was arrested for disorderly conduct. And yes, if you are going to arrest a person for alarming someone, as Crowley indicated in his report, you need to identify the person who was actually alarmed.

Crowley ****ed that report up. I called it day one and pointed out exactly why in other threads.
What???? I picked my words right from Officer Crowley's report. I don't know where you came up with peace disturbance from, but that was not what he was arrested for. :roflWhatev.
You pick the words you want to see. He was properly arrested for breaking the law.
Yes. They did.The cops did nothing wrong.
Don't start crying on me now. I have proven in multiple threads where Crowley screwed up in this arrest. Unlike you, I am an expert on law enforcement. A recognized expert. You are a hyper partisan wonder hack who apparently doesn't even read up on the subjects he decides to yammer on about. All you do is try to figure out who the "liberal" is and go on the attack. **** the facts, you only need to fix a target and you simply operate off your "anti-liberal attack strategy" notes.You mean like when you start babbling about how Gates didn't break the law when he did?
Yeah, which facts would those be by chance? If I were you I'd start by reading up on the topic you are trying to discuss there champ.Don't worry, I stick to the facts and don't wander into liberal lalalalalalalalala (see how liberals get stuck there? Only supposed to be two la's) land.

What I find so outrageously funny about this is that people go nuts over the Fairness Doctrine, "how dare they try to stifle free speec!" Yet when a liberal professor gets arrested for simply using his voice (that is all the **** he did, nothing more) while on his own property, they are all like "he deserved it he's a criminal."
Whining little piss pant hypocrites.
Wow !! you took that guy too the woodshed. I had stated early on that I thought both Gates and the policeman over-reacted. The policeman could have just kept walking away from the professor and let the professor behave like a lunatic. I think the two of them were trying to one up each other. Unfortunately for the proff the policeman has the gun and the handcuffs!!!
Gates just didn't know whne to shut up. He should have stopped his rant and filed a complaint with the chief in the morning.
[/QUOTE]I really must have been listening to another case since I thought that Gate's profession was professor but you say it's "turd" ? [QUOTE"All that was required for that turd to be arrested
