| Gates 911 Caller Included in Racist Smears |
| 2009-07-30 |
| The woman who dialed 911 to report a possible break-in at the home of black Harvard scholar Henry Louis Gates Jr. said Wednesday that she was pained to be wrongly labeled a racist based on words she never said and that she hoped the recently released recording of the call would put the controversy to rest. Oops! The paper used the race word! Clearly, that makes them racist, too. With a trembling voice, name deleted to protect privacy, which apparently never occurred to the press 40, said she was out walking to lunch in Mr. Gates' Cambridge neighborhood near Harvard University when an elderly woman without a cell phone stopped her because she was concerned there was a possible burglary in progress. Mrs. Whalen was vilified as a racist on blogs after a police report said she described the possible burglars as "two black males with backpacks." What do they call women who hate men? Isn't she sexually profiling? Tapes of the call released earlier this week revealed that Mrs. Whalen did not mention race. When pressed by a dispatcher on whether the men were white, black or Hispanic, she said one of them might have been Hispanic. Might have been Hispanic? Sounds like an abundance of caution. But also racist! "Now that the tapes are out, I hope people can see that I tried to be careful and honest with my words," Mrs. Whalen said. "It never occurred to me that the way I reported what I saw be analyzed by an entire nation." Welcome to Obamacare, Sweetheart. |

| #9 The few blacks in America who are not of mixed race ancestry are immigrants from sub-Saharan Africa. In other words, African-American = part-white. There are very few pure breds of any race in the United States of America, whether black, white or purple. |

| #8 Since when did a 911 caller need to hire a lawyer? From now on, I call my attorney and he can make the 911 call. |

| #7 I've been checking up on this gates chap. He is truly a bright but black on white race monger. He hales from a rural area. An area peopled with mixed races of both white and black. Being part Irish and having dated a white woman I would have thought he would be more of a balanced individual. The locals provide this information with ease. The reaction he gave to the officer is truly gates. O and gates both are mixed so it is my opinion they must prove their black race purity. The African knows who he is but O and gates are forever compromised. Like Hitler having a Jewish mother. They can never adapt they will never change. The race war to them is never over like Romulus and Remus an eternal conflict as well as internal. They are truly bipolar when placed next to Dr. King. |

| #4 Being arrested is so civilized & refined, as opposed to bring shot to death by a citizen, which is a common.fate of suspected burglars in Texas.Burglars & stupid people & Skippy should appreciate the difference. Police protect all people, including homeowners, burglars, drunks,imbeciles, morons & Harvard professors. |

| #3 "He was aiming a BIG BLACK pistol at me!" What would that statement get you in terms of profiling? Sexism? Racist? Cacomorphobic? (a .40 slug to the assailant's forehead from me, but I digress...) |

| #2 The concept of police forces is inherently racist. If there were no police, there would be no complaints of police brutality or police racism. |

| #1 The concept of "neighborhood watch" programs and 911 emergency calling are both racist. They tend to sterotype predominately male, hooded citizens who are simply hanging around or innocently gathering to discuss school homework, sports, events at work, or trade bling. If the Police did not act stupidly, they would not need racist citizens to rat on the innocent. |
