    Oh geez, not this crap again.

    Might as well have titled the article "Prominent black scholar behaves like an idiot, gets himself arrested".

    That's just stupid. You broke into the house. Just answer the cop's questions calmly, and if the cop says something that offends you, feel free to cry about it later. Instead you have to make a scene, act the fool and then start screaming racism because you got yourself arrested. It's always the same crap. Next Al Sharpton and his r****ded friends will be going all Jena 6 on us and whipping up nationwide faux rage.

    Ugh.

    LOL @ the irony of the angry black man playing to the stereotype and unneccessarily victimizing himself.

    Is it illegal to make a "big deal" out of something?

    Setting aside the seriousness of this thread, this story is lol worthy.

    Getting arrested for causing a public disturbance after being questioned about breaking into your own home.

    not only that, the cops should be held to a higher standard. once they realized it was his house, they should have left.

    The cool part is, this guy probably wants cops to be the only ones with the guns.

    Obviously they are the only ones professional enough to handle them.

    they are not going to leave when someone is basically screaming at them. Their training is to only leave calm situations. I am just waiting on the dash cam.

    what's he going to do, vandalize his own home? I would assume the conservatives on the board would agree the cops should let someone be in their own home.

    Yeah I mean if you see the post above mine I am not exactly defending the cops, but once called out they don't leave until there is some resolution and if he was screaming at them that isn't resolved.

    You basically have to say "Yes you are right, I should not have gone into my home" Most of the time the cops know it is BS they just want you to say it to prove their dominance. It has happened to me before.
