According to the police report, Gates repeatedly told officers at the scene that “this is what happens to black men in America.”

That’s some pretty good racism, a little bland but that just adds to the quiet horror.

Particularly with Ogletree as his lawyer this “professor” is gonna win and win big.Ogletree is “plugged in” in Massachusetts politics.Add that to the black Harvard “professor” and it’s lights out for the City of Cambridge.In fact,the City will be lucky if they aren’t sued for some serious $$$.

One guess as to why Gay State Conservative¹ is doubting that a genius-grant winning Harvard professor is really a professor. The prize if you get it right is to be really angry.

That “Do you know who I am??” crap really pisses off some cops. I doubt there’s ever been a “professor” of black studies who wasn’t an out-and-out racist.

Once again we have the questioning of credentials, but the part where ozzy here tries to turn the tables is precious. The idea is that pointing out racism is racist because omg, why were you even thinking about race in the first place you racist?

It’s the kind of argument that a mental child would make.

^1. I can’t decide if the user name means “a conservative from a gay state (geographic)” or “a conservative in a gay state (of being)”. Maybe “a gay person who is also a state conservative for some reason”?
