Well got to sign in about race and cops and Obama and gates

Well got to sign in about race and cops and Obama and gates

Firstly as a ex police officer, one thing I do know

That the first thing a good cop does is find out who lives where

And who does what

Esp. in a small town

This is not new York

And when gates Id himself

The cop should have backed off

If he wanted to do some thing

If gates was that crazy

He should have issued a summons for disorderly conduct

It is a summons offense

He could have made his point and avoided embarrassing him self and a prominent resident

Cops know this

They know this

Obama perhaps shouldn't have said stupid

But it was stupid

Stupid as hell

And I jumped up and said praise the lord when he said it

Every person of color knows

How cops treat up

I am a ex cop, I get stopped all the times

My kids are harassed by police

My students are harassed by police

One of my adopted sons was beat to a bloody pulp

By police on the path train for mouthing off

That he had done some thing wrong

Bravo Obama

And this silliness that we have moved passed race is silly

This is what white folks want to believe

Post racial my ass

Every thing is about race and class

And nothing has changed

Now its time for black folks to step forward

When cops and the news start pushing

This issue

Lets push back

Screw that its war

Lets talk about this

The perceptions of white America

Vs colored America

Are amazingly different

Cops

Give me a break I observed racial profiling for years

I have gotten into screaming matching with other cops

About their stops of people of color

This is not new

Anyway and bill cobs

Again shut the hell up you old tired negro

Please go away
