Racism is like a fart in this country,... those who smelt it usually dealt it.

Anyone been following the Jussie Smollett case?

I'm a fan of Empire (absolutey love TH and TPH), and thought what was reported was horrible when first aired. Haven't paid any attention to it, but just saw an update. It's starting to sound real fishy.

-happened on the way back from grabbing a sandwich from Subway at 2am
-Maga hat wearing attackers spewing racist and gay bashing crap
-tied a noose around his neck and poured bleach on him

not computing
-the area has an abundance of video surveillance. nothing picked up
-people randomly carrying a noose and bleach with them at 2am in -10 degree weather?
-didn't call the cops until 40 minutes after he got home
-stated he was on the phone with his manager during the attack. said his manager heard the attack. but manager didn't call the police?
-was beat up and chemicals poured on him, but still had the presence of mind to bring his sandwich home?
-wouldn't let the cops examine the phone to confirm the call to manager
-cops released a pic from video surveillance with two "persons of interest". neither look to be wearing maga hats.

The theory that makes the most sense is it was a kinky hookup. No I'm not joking.

Really nothing he said or did makes any sense.

Not a fan of Carlson, but this is a good read. False flag attacks and hate crime hoaxes are becoming exceedingly prevalent because of what they do to further #TheNarrative and drive attention/$$ to groups that want it.

After this and Covington, the outraged have to feel a little burnt. I saw a run down / compilation of all the hoaxes since 2016. It was jaw dropping. One thing is very apparent, people love to lie. And those feeding the narrative love to cheer the lie.

Jussie Smollett just get let off the hook by the Chicago DA for $100k.

The DA who dismissed charges had her campaign funded by a George Soros supported PAC (no conspiracy BS, he literally gave the PAC near half a million dollars). She ran on a platform of police reform and supporting the black community.

What an absolute crock.

The presser with the Chief of Police and Mayor is all you have to see. Sad stuff.

I think we're going to hear/see a lot more on this.

Huge F'ing crock

I watch Empire. There's supposed to be a major death tomorrow or soon to one of the family. By all accounts it wasn't suppose to be JS's character. I was surprised he didn't look happier today during the presser. Maybe fox switch who got killed off lol.

His character gets shot by police while reaching for his license or cell phone... show makes a statement about how messed up the justice system is. Something like that, the producers must be licking their chops at the potential media attention here.

There's already enough out there lol, but agree we will see more. He's not totally off the hook either. The feds still have the letter investigation. What are the chances he licked his own stamp lol.

Wouldn't shock me to see him get the hell out of Chicago. The police aren't too happy with him.

He's the least interesting character on the show lol, so I don't really care what they do to get rid of him. I doubt it is him though, just because of the characters that does a lot of singing on the show.

Funny this is the racism thread.

Thought only whitey was racist.

I love that an African American and a Hispanic were the ones calling out JS's BS.

It shows that there are some sane folks in Chicago. The Mayor did a great job at calling out how this hurts how true hate crimes are viewed.

I've seen plenty racism from all races. Only on CNN and MSNBC, and from race baiting politicians, is it just whitey.

What i'd like to understand is the current divide between the Obamas and Rham. They were lockstep for quite awhile.


This is far from over.

The dynamics of this are interesting. Honestly I'd have pegged Rham as potentially a guy to help cover something like this up. While he's still not my fav, I have a little more respect for him today.

Guessing the x-CoS inserted herself for the money/power on her own without any Obama consideration. I think the Os are too smart to get anywhere near this.

I just hope the whites in Chicago don't riot over the news. Chicago is "MAGA country" so you never know.

Rahm being silent or not standing with the police would be devastating to the community. He didn't have a choice.

Why forfeit the bond if no deal was made? This definitely has a fishy smell to it. I saw the presser with his lawyer. She was totally clueless. I wouldn't trust her to get me out of a parking ticket.

Given the temperment of the Mayor and CoP, we've not heard the last of this.

The police just played a Fxxx you card and released records of the investigation.
And then hit with an order blocking them from releasing more.....

Never seen a war between the police and the DA like this before.

Haven't Forest Glen, Lincoln Park, and Beverly self-immolated in protest?

Where's No Justice, No Peace?
