Sergeant at eye of storm says he won't apologize
The facts in this case have been reported for several days now. A black
Harvard professor returns home from a trip and finds his house door
stuck. So he and (his driver) begin combined efforts to force the door
open. a passerby sees this and phones in a report to the police.
The police arrive apparently shortly after the professor gains entrance
into his home. The investigating officer ( a Cambridge police sergeant)
requests simply that the man verify his identity and show
identification. Something that any rational person would immediately
recognize as simply a procedural safe guard.
However, the black Harvard professor apparently suffers some extreme
form of indignation at the mere thought of being questioned by police.
Perhaps attributable to his long standing association with preconceived
associations with police and oppression.
Either way, rather than respond in a rational and civilized manner, the
black professor responds in a crass, offensive and rude manner to the
sergeant's request, which subsequently causes him to be charged with
disorderly conduct.
The City prosecutor in Cambridge immediately bows to the racial
pressures being invoked in the media and the police sergeant is
immediately set upon to be vilified and branded as a racist. Which IMO
was the intent of the black professor Gates from the beginning.
And as of last night? The president of the United States joins in with
the racial atmosphere purposely contrived and having obviously arrived
at his own preconceived and prejudicial views and opinion, equates the
arrest of professor Gates by the Cambridge officer as a patently
obvious act of stupidity.
Watch the interview above. I am proud that this sergeant is standing up
for himself and refusing to bow to these contrived racist allegations.
Professor gates deserves no apology, but he certain deserves to be
called upon to give one. But not as much as the sitting president of
the United States does.
