Agreed. BUT, so what! The policeman should have said "I'm sorry for the inconvenience." period. Got in his car, and DRIVE AWAY. I have no doubt, that Prof. Gates would have thought about HIS behavior and most likely apologized in the next day or so; Even if, AFTER the showing of his ID, especially IN his house (and maybe even on his lawn) EVEN IF: Prof. Gates would have said : "OK, satisfied? You fucking racist pig!" The policeman STILL should have gotten in his car and driven away. That is all. In the future, I believe if, PUBLIC SERVANTS, on the whole were required to take part in civility training in the dealing of all races and MORE IMPORTANTLY, all CLASSES, hopefully the people, the CITIZENS that THEY are paid to serve, would on the most part respond with similar solicitude.
