I totally agree with this statement! I don't understand what the fuss is about. If people thought I was breaking into my apartment and the police officer wanted me to come out and talk to him, I would come out or invite him into my apartment/ home. I'm sure if he would have come out of his home, properly, and showed his ID (especially a Harvard ID), the cop would have probably not made an issue of it. It had nothing to do with his race, in my mind. It had to do with the fact he was acting like a lunatic when the police showed up. Sometimes I think the race card gets pulled more than it should. Before anyone thinks I'm some kind of racist...I'm actually a minority, too.
