[QUOTE]Originally posted by glassman: [QB] and my entire thrust of this convo is to avoid the race card entirely. i cannot know how it "feels" to be a person of color who is 60 plus years old, and neither can you. it is in fact your stated intention to hold this (old) guy hostage for having feelings that he EARNED the hard way. progress has been made, but it doesn't change the makeup of the individuals that lived thru it. i'm not excusing the guy from being rude, but the guy never left his porch until he was cuffed. the neighbors? they see cops? and the cops are as much a part of any disturbance as the angry man. [b]My entire thrust of this discussion is that the reflexive use of the race card by anyone, let alone the President of the United States is both vulgar and insutlting; [/b] and i would suggest that people offfended by the truth have some sort of problem because the sword of justice specifically has two edges. the race card is only a trump card if people make it into one. it takes two to do that. Gates may learn that this cop is not a racist, or he may refuse to learn, but the fact is that someone has to take the lead in teaching. cuffing the guy may have taught people to not be rude to cops, but it also reinfroces the impression that many already have, and that is that cops are bullies [/QB][/QUOTE]
