If you are speaking about the guy who was harassed for trying to get into his own home, that was racism.
Speaking of people who should STFU until they know what they are talking about....
WHEN IS THE POLICE ASKING AN UNIDENTIFIED MAN TRYING TO FORCE HIS WAY INTO A HOME
'HARRASSMENT'?
The new / unfamiliar professor was approached at a residence and asked to show ID by a policeman.
Barry's friend, instead of peacefully complying became extremely belligerent.
-- It would have taken ... what.... 2 minutes to show ID and explain he was a new professor, that he was new to the neighborhood?
Instead, Barry's pal decided to be a
D!CK, refused to cooperate with the police, resisted the police's attempt to identify him.
-- He was offended that HE, a black man in an expensive neighborhood, was asked to show his ID and prove he was the homeowner...so he pushed back against the PERCEIVED injustice and got himself arrested.
On the way to a meeting, Barry was asked if he had heard what happened to his buddy. WITHOUT KNOWING A DAMN THING ABOUT WHAT THE DETAILS WERE Barry RACISTLY jumped to conclusions and declared:
"I DON'T KNOW ANY OF THE DETAILS (he should have STFU right then) BUT IT APPEARS THE POLICE ACTED RACISTLY."
It wasn't until later Barry found out just how wrong he and his racist buddy had jumped to conclusions:
The Policeman who detained Barry's friend was not just
A policeman...he was
THE policeman.
- He was an extremely well-known, highly praised, highly decorated policeman
WHO TAUGHT RACIAL SENSITIVITY TO ALL - EVERY - POLICEMAN ON THE FORCE, EVERY NEW COP AND REFRESHERS TO ALL OF THEM.
Barry's pal could not have picked a 'worse' cop to call a racist and claim the only reason he had been asked for ID was because he was 'black'.
ALL of the evidence - ALL OF IT - proved Barry's buddy had been a
PR!CK who picked a fight with the cops instead of just showing his ID and confirming he lived there. The police had gotten a call that there was a possible break in at the house....and the 'TOP COP' responded and wanted to confirm the ID of the man going in and out of the house.
Barry was proven to have jumped to quickly to a racist conclusion only to find that the only one who had jumped to a racist conclusion was BARRY & HIS PAL!
When it was all over, Barry declared there needed to be more 'racial education and sensitivity in situations (SOMETHING THE COP TAUGHT ALL THE TIME) .... Neither Barry nor his buddy apologized - Instead Barry invited them both to a 'BEER SUMMIT' at the WH to show all of it was a misunderstanding - water under the bridge.
The policeman turned out to be perhaps a better man than I might have been by taking Barry up on his offer.
- Barry's buddy was an asshole to the cops who acted like a pr!ck and resisted the cops doing their duty to protect HIS home after a report of a possible burglary was called in....
- Barry had immediately accused the WHITE POLICE of 'racism', insulting the cop and the entire police force
I might have told the President I would be honored to join them for a beer at the WH...RIGHT AFTER HE APOLOGIZED TO ME AND THE POLICE FORCE PUBLICLY ... JUST AS HE HAD ACCUSED THEM INITIALLY OF BEING 'RACISTS' ... VERY PUBLICLY.
