Obama has repeatedly displayed contempt for white people. That's likely what caused him to say the cop was acting "stupidly" right after confessing that he didn't know the facts of the case.

What was that about jumping to conclusions? Who, besides Limbaugh, ever said Skip Gates was arrested for "being a racist piece of shit."

Based on this point alone, it seems your argument is a strawman. But beyond that, what would you rather he said, "I call on all men of good character to go lynch Muslims?

Seriously, indeed...

Umm have you read ANYTHING about the case at all???

BTW rush Limbaugh is a fat piece of shit, so you lose trying to assume I listen to him.

I do a little reading now and then.

Kindly share your reading list with me. I'd especially like to read whatever you read about Gates that supports your assertion. Thanks.

lol, sorry but I do not have the time to educate you on gates being a racist. I know for a fact no proof given to you would ever allow you thing agree anyway.

From the article:

Quote:
Mr Obama said: “We don’t know all the answers yet, and I would caution against jumping to conclusions until we have all the facts.”
Maybe Obama, unlike bush, learns from his mistakes?

I think Obama got it wrong here. However, the "jumping to conclusions" happens a lot. Most (if not all??) Muslims in the US are perceived as terrorists, just as any black man driving a Mercedes is assumed to have stolen it. I understand what Obama's point was with his mate, but he should have then applied the same generalisation to this latest issue.

Wherever you're getting your information from, I suggest a different source.

Do you beg to differ? How is it then that if you listen to people talk on the news etc, anytime anyone sees a Muslim they suspect the person is a terrorist. Just like many African Americans are perceived as criminals. I'm not saying everyone thinks that, but you certainly can't deny the fact that a great number of people believe that.

Yes, some people think like that, wherever one goes, but now you're going from 'any' to 'many'.

His friend was arrested for being a racist piece of shit.. You just said a mouthful which proves that his friend was unjustly arrested. There is no law that justifies arresting someone for being a racist.

There is one for disordorly conduct in which you are swearing at a police officer who is doing hsi job.

But in your mind since all police are racist its ok.. I guess.
