Our society creates this kind of stress on a man/woman. In this case, a child who never had a normal life. His father was violent and abusive. As a teacher I can be a witness that children raised in abusive homes grow up with emotional problems. Michael's life has been put on a spotlight and microscope. He didn't ask for it. Do you think he could have refused the other brothers to sing on stage when he was a child? It was compulsory in that family. When the 80s came Micheal was able to escape out of his cage. He got into a pepsi commercial accident and got addicted to painkillers. The rest is history.

Campus security arrived confirming to Crowley that it was Gates' home. If this is simply about protocol, then why arrest a man in his own home? Disorderly conduct is code for "cop saving face" after making a bad call. Admit your mistake as the police station did and apologize.

Helter Skelter,

Unless you are a woman or a person of color, you will never know what that word unfair means. You will never know the reality that a black person in today's society goes through. The subtleties like walking around a store and being watched. Or what the sign "We have the right to refuse service to anyone" really means. Crowley's great great grandfather was a white man. Gates' great great grandfather was a slave. Isn't that unfair?

Gates was irrational, but that's what racism does to a man. Would Gates have yelled so much if Barack wasn't his friend? I bet Gates has experienced unfair treatment throughout his entire life. I bet Crowley has lived the statistics of black vs white crime....On a side note.... Coming from an Japanese American, I have been to Boston as a visitor. When I bought a beer at the Fleet Center the man who checked my ID made a racial comment to my face. In all my 25 years in Southern California never have I ever experienced such a blatant form of racism.
