El Presidente has weighted in, folks at work was talking 'bout the ish, the news won't let the ish die down. It's racism this. It's racism that! It's the end of the fvcking world. The Po-Po (police for y'all non-street talking folk) is racist fvckers, even if there are minorities on the squad...
Man Folk, you been keeping up with that bullsh!t on 'bout them arresting that brother at his own d@mned house! Ain't that some bullsh!t? Folk you think those fvcking police would have taken a better route. What you thank Folk? You ain't been talking 'bout this sh!t bruh...
Folk responds: "It ain't the police everyone should be worried about. Folk worried about the so-called 'neighbor' who have lived next door or near this person for some time and didn't know it was their own fvcking neighbor. It's the ideology that most caucasian cousins in the United States don't really 'know' their minority neighbors, especially those of the so-called black persuasion. Y'all fvckers should be worried about that sh!t. Not the police. The police was doing their d@mned job. Hell... Maybe they (the police) did take it too far but you know what... That's what black folks are used to. ...but the fvcking neighbor? That's what Black America needs to be worried about. You know, ain't no way a black man lives in that house or this neighborhood philosophy"
Folk has been guilty of being Black in America (mostly while driving not while in in Folk's home). What y'all think 'bout this ish? Who should America be most worried about, the police or what the neighbor represents?
Real talk folks... Speak on it!

I still say the police because them mu'fuckas have power. The nosy next door neighbor can't do shit, but...
CALL THE POLICE!
Now, I tell you what: I'm not going to say that the neighbor in this case was wrong. I would say that I think she would recognize Dr. Gates. But then again, all Black professor do not look alike. Nah but seriously. It's a good thing she called the police because I would like to think that I would have done the same thing if I see 2 people trying to kick in a front door in my neighborhood.
Folk, you read my d@mn mind on this one! The first time I heard about this story I thought about the fact that it had to be someone that lived real close to the good Dr. that called the cops on him. I agree with you that the cops were simply doing their job, although they could have done it with more sensitivity. But the real fvcker I'd be worried about is the person who don't bother to know who the hell I am, to the point that they think I'm breaking into my own sh!t!
On another note, I'm pissed the hell off that this sh!t is even making such a big splash in the news anyway. Don't nobody give a d@mn about the black folks in the hood who get harassed by the cops every d@mn day. But just because the good Dr. is a Harvard professor, it's a big deal. I think that's bullsh!t.

Prologue to Obama 2012
We approach the future walking backwards, our gaze forever fixated on the past. Predicting the future is not a passive exercise; we invent it every day with our actions.
I began the sketches for what would ultimately become Obama 2012 in March 2007, a month after Barack Obama declared his candidacy. I had spent much of the previous 18 months living abroad as an entrepreneur and statesman of sorts, and I was slightly out of touch with the pulse of life on the street in the United States. I learnt about Sen. Barack Obama’s Springfield, IL speech formally declaring his candidacy for president of the United States through one of the international cable news channels and thought how great it would be to have a fresh start after years of mediocrity in Washington and a plummeting reputation around the world.
By September, after what seemed like raising a six-month-old child, my sketches had turned into Why the Democrats Will Win in 2008 the Road to an Obama White House. It was my answer to the burning question everyone had back in March: Can he really win? Actually, not everyone thought it was a question. For many people, including Mark Penn, director of the Clinton campaign, the answer was an easy “no way.” This strategic blunder made it that much easier for the Clinton campaign to be defeated. Then there were Black pundits like Shelby Steele, a fellow at the Hoover Institution, who came out with a 2007 book entitled A Bound Man, Why Obama Can't Win.
Being Black did seem to be an automatic disqualification, but then why did someone need to write an entire book arguing what should have been patently obvious? Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Colin Powell came to my mind and I remembered that he could have run for president in 1992 as a war hero. But Colin Powell was Ronald Reagan’s protégé and got a special pass on the race question. Black conservatives like Justice Thomas, Condoleezza Rice and Colin Powell were careful to disassociate themselves from liberal thinkers and activists like Jesse Jackson, who lost, as expected, the 1984 and 1988 Democratic primaries. Ultimately, Colin Powell, in spite of all his honors, declined to run for president. His wife Alma feared for his safety. Common sense said that a candidate like Obama, for numerous insurmountable reasons, didn't stand a chance of winning the Democratic primary, let alone a general election in which 10% of the electorate is African American and Republicans controlled the White House for 20 of the preceding 28 years. But I decided that Obama's chances merited a closer examination. In it, I would bring to bear my gambling skills.
In the words of our dear brothas from the lovely area of KillaFornia called Compton...
FUCK DA POLICE!!!!!
Crooked ones that is. And Fuck nosey ass neighbors. Funny thing to me this these mofos all up in the business when they SHOULD NOT be. Then when you need they ass they MIA.
