We Know the Birth History of Every President Save One

SDR, if you’re going to ask theoreticals, why leave out the most obvious one? What if Gates were a famous white Harvard professor?

What I have odds on the issue is that I don’t believe that the president should have made a judgement about calling the police action stupid.

It may have been stupid, it may not have been stupid. I don’t believe that all the facts were vetted out at the time that he made the statement.

However my opinions are as such:

I think that if Gates were a famous white Harvard professor nothing would have been made of this.

I think that if the cop that arrested Gates would have been Black then Gates would have acted in a different manner.

I think that it is sad that the woman that reported the incident is receiving death threats.

I do believe that racism is alive and well in America and to me that is a very very sad thing.

Obama had nothing to do with the arrest nor did he have anything to do with the subsequent media frenzy around it.

I think that as the president of the United States it would have been more prudent for him to wait until the case was fully investigated before calling the police activity stupid. (I am sorry you associate me with being a racist for feeling that way)

I actually think that comments on this issue by Bill Cosby were quite insightful and I absolutely agree with his assessments.

I didn’t say that you were racist. I was just questioning how you look at race issues.

Black tend to question if certain behavior is race motivated.

Whites usually claim that race has got nothing to do with it. We now live in a meritocratic society and Black need to get over the chip on their shoulders.

Whites who claim reverse discrimination claim that certain behavior is race motivated. Aren’t they guilty of the same bias as Blacks?

In Obama’s defense, he said that the police arrest was stupid. He didn’t say that it was race motivated. Given the sensitivity of the matter it was an unwise comment on the President’s part.

The uproar ensued when people, on all sides, started making all kinds of assumptions. I think that it’s better to look at the facts first before assuming that the actions were race motivated.

Color blindness starts with the individual.

Race relations would be smoother if people (on all sides) would tone down the assumptions and accusations and stop looking through the race lens.

I totally agree with your comments. I dont think it was wise for him to say the arrest was stupid. I think he could have said something like there has been a history of racial profiling among various law enforcement agencies but it would not be wise for me to comment on this particular case until I learn all of the facts.
