More Gates

It appears the officer who arrested Gates teaches a class to other cops on how to avoid racial profiling. Which, to me, makes what he did DOUBLY STUPID. He shouldv'e just said "I fucked up, what an idiot" from Day 1. No matter what, there will be a number of people that will call him a racist anyway; digging in and prolonging things only serve to make the rest wonder. Personally, I'm no more liable to assume that any cop is some profiling racist any more than I am to assume any black dude near a nice house must be looking to break into it. I wonder what quotas have to do with these things? (popping in Anal Encounters V)
