This is same reason we lost Vietnam. I think every man, woman and child in America needs to a good long tour of duty in Afghanistan or Iraq. And that will get their priorities straight. I guess the President should have chose wine and a Native American, Chinese American, Mexican American, etc along with law enforcement from every color too. Where will end? IF the media had found 2 months from now the a friend of the President got wrongfully detained by local law enforcement and he did not respond on the issue, someone would be on blog or CNN asking why the President did not address the situation. We are in the worst economic and social situation in the history of our nation and people are still making a big deal about "racial issues". We can debate "racism" until Doomsday and it will not solve the problem at hand. Which is the fact that a human is the worst thing to happen in history of planet. Well nothing is gonna stop me from taking over the world. I say, "Let them all starve and let the aliens sort out the bones in space!" "COBRAAAA!"</p> I am sick and tired of Americans, always blurring the issues at hand with “ifs” and “what ifs”. This is same reason we lost Vietnam.

We all practice it every day and every time we point the finger at others. The world will only begin to be a better place when we ecept our short comes and really WANT to work together DISPITE our differences. Until we can rejoice in them they we tear us appart! People have to want to get allong before they can. I have had it in my face a number of times in my life and it always make me sick to my soul, and I'm not dark!</p> <p>Peace</p> Prejudice is a human condition and a part of all of us!

Gates against the percieved white establishment, Obama against an assumed injustice of police against the black man...and the cop who is just plain tired of people who will not respect the law enough to cooperate. This is life and we as humans have to learn to overcome our flesh and human pride to treat each others with respect.</p> <p>This whole issue is over pride...the cop was just doing his job..pride prevented Gates from simply identifying himself to the officer and let his emotions get him locked up by shooting his mouth off. Can you imagine the fallout if the real Gates and his wife were tied up in the bedroom and the man having a tantrum was a psychopath who got his way and the cops left only to come back to a murder scene later?? The cop was doing his job and if he came to my house I would certainly want him to be sure I was the authentic homeowner.. Folks...the law is not perfect..nor the Govt...the only perfect man died on a cross for us... like it or not we need to respect and cooperate with the law and our leaders, and learn to battle our own judgement of others and there would be real headlines like, "nobody got shot today".</p> Everyone associated with this drama was fighting his own prejudices.

This was not an issue of racism until Obama made it one by calling the Cambridge police department stupid for daring to arrest one of his racist friends.</p> There were at least two racists at the Beer Summit, and neither of them had dark skin.
