Obama says Cambridge police acted 'stupidly' in Gates arrest

According to a press release at:

http://www.boston.com/news/politics/politicalintelligence/2009/07/obama_cambridge.html

President Obama addressed the arrest of Harvard scholar Henry Louis Gates Jr. at his Cambridge home during his news conference tonight, saying that "anyone would be angry" and "the Cambridge police acted stupidly."

Obama prefaced his reply by saying that "I might be a little biased here" because "Skip Gates" is a friend, and by acknowledging that "I don't know all the facts."

He then recited what has been reported, and joked that if he tried to jimmy the lock at his current residence -- the White House -- "I'd get shot."

But then he went on to say that there's a long history of African-Americans and Latinos being stopped by police disproportionately.

"Now, I don't know, not having been there and not seeing all the facts, what role race played in that. But I think it's fair to say, number one, any of us would be pretty angry; number two, that the Cambridge police acted stupidly in arresting somebody when there was already proof that they were in their own home; and, number three, what I think we know separate and apart from this incident is that there's a long history in this country of African-Americans and Latinos being stopped by law enforcement disproportionately. That's just a fact," Obama said.

Here is an interesting poll:

There are many number of articles available at the Harrison Barnes site that helps the users to get a positive motivation for searching a job. These articles are a real boost to increase the confidence level of an individual.

You can find many useful job search advice at this site. As explained in one of the article it is true that people who do things differently are watched over. And recruiters look forward for these types of people only. So when you try to do things differently, the chance of getting the job increases than the people who think the same.

Also it is more important to look for jobs on “heavy ground” rather than “deadly ground”. It is very important to have good references in life. The world’s impact on us does depend on the references we have on the way. These references are important as they shape our life.

In short, it is a real informative site that should be checked by all job seekers. Do not miss the site…
