I was sitting around talking about the madness of the Henry Louis Gates incident. She immediately brought up this Dave Chappelle stand-up. It's right on point! While this is an older clip from Dave Chappelle (comic genius) it's so relevant right now as it pertains to this Henry Louis Gates incident. Really, really relevant!
As if the madness of the arrest wasn't enough, now the president of the city's police union is demanding that President Obama apologize to members of the Cambridge Police Department. GTFOH! That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. The President called them out and now he's wrong? Nah, a lot of folks in America feel the same way. Cambridge Police, you were WRONG!
Cops make cops look bad. It's a damn shame!
Anyway, this video clip is sooooooo relevant! Enjoy!
First things first Dave C.that comedy show is a classic! I can't believe he apologized - Maybe he did it to shut them up? But then again if I was Obama I wouldn't have apologized to that Cambridge bama lol. <==I'm sorry it's just not right man. They are making Obama bend backwards and he's the mutha___n PRESIDENT. Nobody made DUMBYA (DUBYA) apologize for shyt!! People claim to want change but won't let Obama do his thang. SMH. This whole thing angers me & makes me blood boil. It's Injustice being shoved in our faces.
ReplyDeleteIf you would ACTUALLY READ THE POLICE REPORT and not just assume something racist happened you would very quickly realize that the only person that acted stupidly in this whole thing was Gates.

The police asked Gates for his ID and he showed it. The police was trying to leave after getting confirmation as he is supposed to in a situation like this. But Gates kept yelling at him shouting about racism and when asked to speak outside he said:
"ya, I'll speak with your mama outside."
Now, that is real class and intelligence there by Gates, eh? That's something a bright black professor would say :p
Then Gates kept shouting and acting like some kind of drunk jackass and after all of that disorderly conduct by Gates Crowley put the cuffs on him and brought him to the police station.
By the way, the black cop that was there when Gates was arrested for disorderly conduct, he FULLY SUPPORTS GATES BEING ARRESTED.
