What Do You See In This Picture

Soap Box Ravings is amazed at this picture Of President Barack Obama and his personal friend Professor Henry Louise Gates of Harvard on their way to have a beer with accused racist Sergeant Crowley of the Cambridge Police Department.
As a retired airport police officer, Soap Box Ravings would guess that this is not the first person with a cane Sergeant Crowley has ever helped down a flight of stairs.
On the other hand, the President appears to have no concern for his own friend as he seems to be out in front with a somewhat detached air about him.
As I cop, I learned to watch people's body language for clues to what they may do or say; my safety depended on it sometimes. The body language in this offical government photo released by the White House says volumes.
