To the actual thread topic: "obama should not have said anything about black harvard professor"

That is absolutely true. It killed the entire point of the news conference and IMHO every one of his staff was shaking their heads and palming their faces. Bet ya a quarter.

On the incident itself, once I read the initial interview with the professor on theroot.com the other day when it happened, it became clear what happened. He was jetlagged, pissed that his door was fucked up, and then a cop shows up and demands to see his ID. Anyone would be annoyed as hell. His problem wasn't "being black", it was being STUPID!!!!!! As dr king said, it had EVERYTHING to do with the content of his character THAT evening, in THOSE circumstances, with THAT cop. Period, end of drama.

YES the cop should have said "HEY, shut the fuck up old man, for all we knew 2 guys were in there holding your family at gunpoint telling you to yell at the cops to go away, dont you GET IT YET!? We had a report of a forced entry dumb ass!?" But he didnt. Do police ever do that? Fuck no! Thats not race related, thats power related! You want to mouth off? Fine, you're under arrest. Duh. If anyone really thinks a belligerant white professor would have got the police to bow as they apologized and walked backwards to their car is just...... lacking an objective view.

Focussing on this from a race angle is missing the forest for the trees.
