Re: Empire' star Jussie Smollett attacked in possible hate crime

This guy is a special kind of jackass. It was obvious from the first article and he kept pushing. Nevermind the damage it might do to the minority groups he was claiming to represent and ignored the harm to family and friends. He wanted to be known and be a victim. He might have been out to get Trump supporters, but he burned everyone that ever supported him.

You need to register with a party. I know it is very fashionable now to be an "independent" but this just gives you less of a voice.

He's never "independent". Does screaming liberal ring a bell?

Is that the cloak you wear?

This is common.

I also see KGB refer to themselves as "real Americans."

I know some of the "tells."

Then you should be very angry at the epidemic of hoaxes which make this harder to do. Doubting this was ALWAYS a relatively safe bet.

And all the people with voices that get listened to (celebrities, journalists, politicians) who jumped on this as a "hate crime" and pounded the table about it need to condemn Smollett loudly rather than just slink away quietly, as most of them are doing.
 
Re: Empire' star Jussie Smollett attacked in possible hate crime

Filing a false report to police in the State of Illinois is considered an act of disorderly conduct, which is a Class 4 felony.

That means that anyone found guilty could face between one and three years in prison.

By law, the crime of disorderly conduct is committed in Illinois by anyone who 'transmits or causes to be transmitted in any manner to any peace officer, public officer or public employee a report to the effect that an offense will be committed, is being committed, or has been committed, knowing at the time of the transmission that there is no reasonable ground for believing that the offense will be committed, is being committed, or has been committed.'

I don't interpret a series of dots as a message. Were you trying to speak in an intelligent manner? If so, ask a grown up to help you type.

You're not following the conversation, then. Take a deep breath and read before replying. And there's no need for the personal insults.

I wouldn't say "believed", but any accusations needs to be taken seriously and investigated thoroughly. In most cases the alleged victim is an actual victim, but in cases like this where there are so many holes in the story or areas of it that simply doesn't make sense then a reasonable amount of skepticism should be applied. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. The fact that he is black or gay should have no bearing on if you believe him or not. If a white person said they were mugged in a trailer park by 2 black men that were singing a Conway Twitty song, then just about everyone should be thinking there is something off with this story and possibly the events didn't happen as described. Smollett's case isn't much different than the scenario above.

Wondering with Adam Schiff is going to condemn Smollett for his LACK of moral clarity; moral depravity?

Stop playing dumb, Josie, if you're able. If Smollett lied, he should be prosecuted. How many ****ing times do I have to say it before it penetrates your skull?

Up to a point, by now Smollet no longer deserves to be believed.

Relax. No one is going to judge you if you put from the rough.



The gay friends I've had would laugh their ass off at anyone who acted like such a drama queen. They all had a sense of humor, took as well as they gave and not a single one of them would tolerate someone acting like a little bitch.

I havent read the entire thread, no. But I have read a lot of it. Thats irrelevant anyway since I was responding to a single comment of yours. And since you didnt address a word of what I wrote, I can only assume that you have no objection to it.

I have yet to meet a gay person who acts so victimized as many of these weasels on this site. Fake outrage will create real rage if you don't watch out.
