That’s an interesting point. It probably wasn’t pre-arragned, but I betcha that Al Sharpton and the gang are already on their way to Cambridge to take advantage of it.
BTW, the police report says that the caller said there were two black men wearing back packs trying to break into the house. What happened to the second guy?
Is it possible that Gates was trying to create a distraction to protect his friend (who may have had a warrant on him or may have been carrying something like drugs or weapons in his backpack)?
The man with Gates was a taxi driver who dropped him off at his house.
