Interestingly enough, the arresting officer has the full support of his union. Right now he is upset at Obama's remarks and claims that Obama doesn't know the full story. Officer Crowley is reportedly well-liked and known for giving CPR in the attempt to save the life of Reggie Lewis when he collapsed during his workout.

That's all wonderful. I'm just still puzzled with respect to why Gates was arrested for disorderly conduct when all he did was repeatedly ask the officer for his name and badge number. That's not exactly disorderly conduct, and to date the officer has not given any information that would indicate that Gates was doing anything beyond that.

I'm glad they dropped the charges though.
