Slider's account is wrong.

gates was already in the home when the cop arrived. from the posted article...

Gates' lawyer, fellow Harvard scholar Charles Ogletree, said his client showed his driver's license and Harvard ID — both with his photos — and repeatedly asked for the name and badge number of the officer, who refused. He followed the officer onto the front porch as he left his house and was arrested there.

frankly, i believe gates over the cop.

the officer was likely angry this guy demanded his badge and was gonna show him a lesson. not sure it was racial, but it could've been.
