Behavior is all important here. I think we all know.

Giving Gates leeway in his story is a good thing, but is it being fair to those who had to listen to his bellyache? I don't think so. He, by his position, brought this to the national stage and should be held responsible. He won't and that is a problem.

A misbehaving child is sent to their room for time to cool down. A misbehaving Black Prof is glorified and that is detestable.

Racial profiling is something that should be recognized in all communities and worked on. In NYC it is a major issue at times, but the leaders in our communities would rather point fingers at wrong doers instead of working on correcting the problem. Gates attention to this was not done well and will only make matters worse for all.


Jack, he is a banker
and Jane, she is a clerk
