But it wasn't just that Gates was yelling at Crowley and nothing else happened. There are other factors involved. If I were the police officer, I would be wondering why someone who has apparently done nothing wrong is acting out so much. Also, after showing the ID the cop should have left IF there was nothing more to the situation. But Gates kept going, yelling etc which is still disturbing the peace, disorderly conduct. I can't imagine a cop leaving a situation where the person he has interacted with is still yelling and screaming. That is an unresolved situation, imho.
