  • NO!This is what happens when you turn your back on a CRISIS in your community! It meets you at your front door step! TO ALL THE YOUNG BLACK YOUTH,READ CAREFULLY: YOUR BLACK LEADERS HAVE SOLD YOU OUT. Don't believe me?Explain the HI incarceration level amongst the Black Youth.These so called Black leaders are just trying to save their own skin at the expense of the POST-INTEGRATION black youth.

  • In Detroit which is one of the most predominantly black cities in the USA, the black dispatchers identify race of potential perps to the black officers as a matter of procedure. So am I to assume all these blacks are racist? I hope not. When we roll up on a scene often there are numerous people and we need to know ASAP who the potential aggressor or criminal is, just in case violence becomes an issue. This is in FACT for the safety for all involved including the possible Perp.

  • Gates is a racist. The police were right to arrest him.

  • wow those accents are thick!

  • I hope I never get this dispatcher if I make a call. What an idioT

  • gates was stupid for not cooperating, and the cops were stupid for arresting him, there you go. (who cares if its your house, they are just doing there job, the man is ranting, its his house leave him alone you've done your job)

  • You are correct about one thing. Abuse of power is serious. And it is dealt with. Cops ARE answerable to the public. There is a cop in my city that was discovered to be abusing his power. He is now in jail and is likely to stay there a long time. As he should be.

    But that doesn't mean you condemn the entire police community based on the isolated misdeeds of a few. That is Bigotry. Plain and simple. Most cops are good people. Saying otherwise is simply dishonest and irresponsible.

  • From 4:29 to 4:31, is he saying "uh, cooperative" or "uncooperative?"

  • Fuck the Police and the NWO!

  • Are you kidding me, these police are the most unapologetic, racist, law breakers. Why would the Professor be a fool? The cops are the ones invading his house that he owns. You are backwards!
