New York Times op-ed columnist Charles M. Blow says he’s “fuming” after his son was allegedly stopped by a Yale University police officer at gunpoint Saturday night because he apparently fit the description of a possible burglary suspect.

“So, my son, a 3rd year chem major at Yale was just accosted — at GUN POINT — by a Yale policeman bc he ‘fit the description’ of a suspect,’” Blow tweeted on Saturday. “He was let go when they realized he was a college student and not a criminal.”

Was he murdered by an unarmed black teenager? Unarmed is a first name.

Probably an affirmative action programs enrollee.

Ideal liberal description of a suspect: “it was a person.”

I would be super pissed too, if this happened to my son.

Perhaps the report indicated the suspect was armed and dangerous. Perhaps the chemistry student mouthed off and acted a jerk like his daddy.

I remember being stopped in Nevada at 10 in the evening for speeding. They turned both the police car’s spot lights on my car and the officer that came up to my car had his hand on his weapon. They let me go after I produced my ID.

When I was a kid I was pulled over, handcuffed, my car searched, and held at gunpoint because I fit the description of a bank robber.

Feces happens. Get over it blow.

Further proof that LIBERALS have their heads so far up their a$$ that, as Dennis Miller said, “they have to cut switchback trails.”

The only person who is at fault for this is the burglar. The Yale police were looking for someone who met a certain description, which is part of their job.

I think liberals attempted to be so open minded their brains fell out.

What, pray tell, did the anointed Mr. Blow expect? I, too, have been accosted -- at GUN POINT -- by a Dallas policeman because I was driving a car that 'fit the description' of a car involved in a shooting. And I was let go when they realized I was just an ordinary guy and not a criminal.

It happens. Even to us whities, Mr. Blow.
