You would be surprised if you knew the diverse backgrounds, experiences, and fields of expertise of the people with whom you disagree.

Did the officer say that he was alone the entire time with Gates? I don't think that he did. Surely he knows that there were photos taken of Gates' arrest. The officer may have arrived first on the scene and he and Gates exchanged pleasantries before the other officers arrived. Again, we're all assuming so acknowledge it as assumptions.
