Laihendi thinks the whole topic is stupid and overblown, and that people should shut up about it. The media needs to stop using this story as an excuse to ignore the real stories, the ones too controversial for them to talk about... like Michael Jackson dying.

♪ Mr Crowley ♪
Mr. Crowley, what went down in your head
(Oh) Mr. Crowley, did you talk to the dead
Your lifestyle to me seemed so tragic
With the thrill of it all
You fooled all those people with magic
(Yeah)You waited on Satan's call
Mr. Charming, did you think you were pure
Mr. Alarming, in nocturnal rapport
Uncovering things that were sacred, manifest on this earth
(Oh)Conceived in the eye of a secret
Yeah, they scattered the afterbirth
Mr. Crowley, won't you ride my white horse?
Mr. Crowley, it's symbolic of course
Approaching a time that is classic
I hear that maidens call
Approaching a time that is drastic
Standing with their backs to the wall
Was it polemically sent?
I wanna know what you meant
I wanna know
I wanna know what you meant, yeah!

Making threads off topic since 2006.
Can't say I don't enjoy it though.

Crowley is the victim in this one. According to the story, he was merely acting out of police conduct, and Gates, in my opinion, is shaming all black people for using racism as an excuse to dodge the law.
The governor and the president wanted to make the news and come out looking good.
You shouldn't talk about American news if you don't even know what happened.
Laihendi can't speak for the governor, but Obama only commented on the incident because he was specifically asked about it at a press conference. He said he was friends with Gates, he said that would make him biased, but he gave his thoughts on the matter anyways. He said it was stupid to arrest a middle-aged man who used a cane while he was in his own house, and (before you ask) he never accused the police officer of being motivated by racism, and since he made that comment, he's gotten in touch with the officer to try to reconcile with him.
In Laihendi's opinion, he simply shouldn't have commented on it, but the media has completely distorted what was actually said, and all the clueless people around the world are eating it up.

Obviously Obama forgot to remember that the middle aged man was not arrested for breaking and entering, he was arrested because he verbally assaulted a police officer. I'm not sure, but I think that's against the law, if it's not though, feel free to correct me.

You shouldn't talk about American news if you don't even know what happened. Obama never said why he was arrested. He was arrested for disorderly conduct. Obama said it was stupid for him to be arrested for that, when he was in his own house, and obviously not a threat to anyone (Laihendi isn't saying this is a fault of the police officer, he was simply doing his job).
So, once again, don't comment on American news if you don't even know what happened.

Dude, the disorderly conduct wasn't trying to break into his own house because he lost his key. The disorderly conduct was
cussing out a police officer's mother when he was just doing his job
. What the officer did wasn't stupid, Obama just instantly said that because of the overall scenario.

First off... yeah, Laihendi knows what disorderly conduct is, Laihendi knows why he was arrested for it. It's all the American news has been talking about for two or three days now. Obama feels it was stupid for Gates to be arrested because he was in his own house, and he felt like he was being provoked by a police officer because of his questions, and he said that that is only what it seemed like to him, and that he would have a bias because of his friendship with Gates.
Obviously Obama should have stayed out of it, but he's being demonized as a "reverse-racist" when his comments on Gates and Crowley weren't even about race.
So... are you going to keep on ranting about something that you know nothing about, or does Laihendi have to continue correcting you?

Dude, I can simply say what you're saying is wrong and consider myself right too. I like no to because I still have some self dignity left.
