It's all about Race

Why do they ask for a description period? I can see that going in on something "in progress" a guy might want to know who to look for. This cop has surely been scrutinized just like Palin, so if his kids have a pimple or anything, I'm sure we would know. From what I've seen, his record speaks for itself. I think some folks think they are "special" or just plain don't like authority. The report was of "2" men, and I wonder how this guy would have felt if the officer had him step outside, and sure enough, there was an intruder hiding behind the curtains with a gun trained on him. Cops don't have the easiest job as it is, and surely don't need some self important asshat making things harder and or more dangerous. I could be biased though, as I have had my life literally saved by the police.
