70. Frightening what he's saying here and in his letter to the Globe posted below . . .
Imagine, however, that he thinks that anyone will accept this was simply "a poor choice of words" !
It wasn't racist? This guy is whacked.

This cop must be told regularly that he's a genius and the public are idiots.
He certainly acts like it.

As he sees it Gates was a "suspect" -- see his letter -- and had no rights except to obey the
officer. Must be some really interesting training they're getting in Boston!

And, he saw Gates' questions to Crowley as "assault" -- and note this . . .
I would have sprayed him in the face with OC deserving of his belligerent non-compliance."

What's "OC" . . . ???

Imagine had this cop responded to the call, Gates may have been dead with drugs all over his
body -- having jumped off the porch, of course, to escape!

These cops seem to be being trained to bait people of color and to be highly insulted at any
lack of conformity on the part of the citizen!!!

And -- this was written while everyone was on Crowley's side and hitting on Gates for his "racism"!!!


And despite what Maj. James Sahady, a spokesman for the National Guard would like us to believe
evidently this cop thought that his e-mail would be well-accepted.

Maybe there should be a review of the cases this cop has handled over the last two years???

And they certainly need to review the training -- especially in regard to someone like Crowley
being an instructor!!!

Wow --
