After so many race baiters have had over a week to claim that the neighbor called in "2 black men breaking in..." to the Gates house, the truth comes out: no description of the race of Gates or his driver were offered by the neighbor UNTIL the dispatcher asks what the race of them was, and even then, the female neighbor says, "maybe Hispanic" for one of them, nothing about "black" or "African American" for either of them.
So many people who screamed "racism", "police abuse", and "racial profiling" about this case now have egg on their face, but will they be honorable enough to admit they pre-judged the conditions of this Gates arrest?

I don't think someone with any real experience in computing would take insults made over the Internet seriously. Perhaps you're a fraud in that regard too?

Well someone who was educated wouldn't demean someones educational level because of typos. I am a computer programmer my strength is math not grammar, if you want to test knowledge based on what you are good at then lets based this on mathematics and computers then lets see who is not a "college student"

Allenr10391 Once again read the law. Yup you can be arrested for sneezing. That's why you say "Excuse me!" It just depends on the person you are annoying.
Allenr10391 I feel really sad for you that you cannot comprehend "quite enjoyment". Where do you live? Boom Box city? All Americans (cops included) enjoy the the right to peace. When you "mouth off" it's on you pal.
READ THE LAW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So by your definition sneezing can be construed as disorderly conduct. That's just absolutely ridiculous. The officer arbitrarily charged Gates. Who determines how loud is actually loud? Being loud is speech, he was being loud(supposedly) while TALKING. Your argument is one of ignorance and total denial f the facts; Crowley is a liar, who charged Gates unnecessarily to show him who was boss.

what if the burglar is armed? What if he sees the police and starts shooting? You can never be to cautious.

Allenr10391 disturbance has various levels (just like theft has petty theft (petty larceny), theft (larceny) and grand theft (grand larceny) which is a felony.
Tumultuous Disturbance is a felony but requires acts like brawling etc. speech alone does not warrant that felony charge. The lesser charge of disorderly conduct can be issued for any act which causes a person to turn there head, break their stride while walking or simply shifting the glance of their eyes due to an action.

It wasn't his neighbor. It was a woman that had just had lunch in a nearby eatery.
If it WAS his neighbor they'd have said "That gimpy, booze swillin' womanizer Gates has locked his arrogant dumb ass out of the house again."

Irrelevant and immaterial my friend. The only legal questions are.
Did Crowley have cause to question Gates?
And in doing so did Gates cause a disturbance?
Keep in mind you can be charged for disturbing the peace for singing too loudly in your bath tub.
