White, Black, Yellow, Red...whatever color you are...they can take you into custody until the facts are verified.
Know your laws and don't be dense.

First of, when a 70yo man, well dressed, well spoken open the door.. is asked to step outside by a cop, confused he protests, the police should adjust to the non-threatening situation, communicate with the guy to try to find a way to get the info he needs... The guy isn't going anywhere... For you to claim that it would have been perfectly fine to arrest him on the spot for protesting a little is craziness... And I dont care what the law says...
oh btw,... here is Henry Louis Gates Jr. version

Now, he obviously left out a few details but seems like he showed his IDs fairly rapidly after refusing to step outside.. but then got mouthy and was arrested for that... in his own house.. disordely conduct.. lol Serve and protect!!!
