Cameron Reagan, 31, was taken into custody by police responding to a house alarm at 12:20 a.m. (3:20 a.m. ET), said Officer Gregory Baek of the Los Angeles Police Department.

There was a minor amount of force used, Baek said. Reagan was detained for resisting arrest and is being held on $10,000 bail. Resisting arrest is a misdemeanor.

9. I think Diallo was reaching for his ID
he got 50 bullets for his "accident". There is no racial profiling in his country.

10. Back in the early 80's just after Reagan became President his
adopted son Michael let it be known that Reagan had never met his grandson Cameron who was about 3 at the time. That was an embarrassment to the Reagans, so a photo op was hastily arranged. Looks like he's turned into a troubled adult. I hope he gets whatever help he needs.

Wow! That's a lot of "looks like" for this uninteresting event. It's not even a DUI!

Remember....it's the "environment" and genes (does he share any with the Reagans?) that "develop" personality, not home life....who's effects generally are negligible.
