Jussie Smollett Trial Is Starting

That guy fooled a lot of people... for about 5 minutes.

Still waiting to hear anyone answer Goat on why anyone would riot because of this case? I am also wondering why anyone cares about this case?

I really do not but is a far left wing city like Chicago he will probably get off. That is my guess anyway.

There were plenty of hard working citizens in the city of big shoulders who were upset when States Attorney Kim Foxx dropped the charges the first time around, after receiving a call from Michelle. (I was working in the suburbs at the time).

This trial sprung up from the backlash of that action — for me, a video tape of the rehearsal with one of the hired ‘actors‘ holding a script is pretty compelling proof that the event was staged.

The investigation resources expended could have been used to work on a number of murder investigations on the west and south sides.

Wouldn’t recommend crossing IL state line with a fire arm. Foxx won’t drop the charges for you.

Why would there be?
I’ll take your bait. He’s black. If he’s found guilty it will be an injustice and racist and give BLM a reason to riot, loot and burn. Since Biden is president they would probably restrain themselves so it’s not a bad look for him.

Now call me a racist. It will be bullshit just like the fake bullshit Jesse did.

Kim Foxx is horrible. She truly is awful at her job.

I don't think that's a racist answer. Thanks.

You need a comma before or after "some times" to specify if that's a compliment or an insult.
It was a compliment. I most likely will keep pissing you off though. I actually had a nice paragraph typed that would piss you off but I deleted it. I am getting soft.

My friends on the South Side ( more conservative than the West Side) say Jesse is an off the chain a poseur . And that is considering “Empire ” night was a major social community viewing night. My door men at the hotel on Delaware street loved them some “Empire” because of the on scene production near them. Post Jessie Smollet…no so much.

Almost overwhelmingly, my friends in the Chi south of Madison and West of State think JS is guilty and a distraction to the
larger cause.

As a counter to that narrative, what happened to the Waukesha riots so many were predicting? How many Blacks are convicted every single day of crime and how many riots are there every single day?
 
In case anyone forgot who we have for a VP

Her misinformed Breonna Taylor tweets fanning the flames of violence were even worse.

It usually depends on our MSM and how they play up the situation.

Why isn’t the Justice Department going after the black man that massacred people at the Christmas Parade for a hate crime? Let’s see, the media says an SUV killed and maimed the people. I guess an SUV can’t commit a hate crime.

Why don’t they speak and be more vocal? I am guessing because they know they will be gone after on social media and harassed. I understand why they wouldn’t want that.

People don't kill people...SUVs kill people.

Yep, it is similar to why Republicans have started winning elections. Normal people are afraid if a Republican loses conservatives will riot and attack the capitol.

I do not know why it has not been labelled a hate crime. Is there evidence he targeted Whites and not Blacks along the route?

We will find out, but I think anyone with eyes and ears can see and hear the difference in how crimes are treated by the media and politicians as they relate to the offender's race. If this would have been a white driver mowing down people at a predominantly black parade the volume would be piercing and the coverage unrelenting. This was a grisly event.

Blacks commit a disproportionate amount of violent crime. This truth doesn't fit into the left's narrative, and it gets less attention than it deserves. The race-baiters from Sharpton to Bush don't want to talk about accountability; it's not good for vote-pandering nor fundraising.

The same MSM that gives disproportionate coverage to pretty young white victims. The media wants to draw attention and knows where the public's attention lies. Not everything is a conspiracy.

What is that? Maybe one story a year? Because they have suspense and are out of the ordinary, like a Lifetime movie. It's not a conspiracy, it's reality. During the BLM riots did you see any news reporting that unarmed blacks ARE NOT killed more often than unarmed whites? Did you hear the disproportionate stats related to black violent crime?

Your argument isn't very strong. A better argument is that black crime is normalized at this point so hardly newsworthy. But that misses a broader point doesn't it?

That's just another side of the same coin. The media gives the people what they are interested in hearing about. My argument is chicken vs egg. MSM isn't driving stories people aren't interested in.

No. The media leans left and the majority of the stories they push comport with same. Homicides have soared the last two years. Crime is destroying cities. Do you think Anderson Cooper will do a story on that; or do you think he'd rather do a story on false arrests - a story that touches hardly any of us? Liberals go into these jobs and their predilections come out in what they do or don't cover

I get less than 1% of my news from TV per week, so maybe I'm not qualified for this debate. But there's plenty of headline stories in print media about high crime rates.

I'll grant you the media leans left. It might surprise you to learn I get as irritated as you by articles where I have to scroll to the top to make sure it's not an opinion piece. But their bosses pay attention to what people are reading and watching, and give us more of that.

The broader point is the racism of these assholes on the left - the assumptions they make - the stereotypes they live by - the labels and lies they apply to everyone, while projecting and transferring their racism onto others.

It wasn’t right wingers who constantly portrayed young black men as criminals in movies and TV shows for 50 years.

Leans left? A station like CNN does not just lean left they are hardcore leftists who do not even try and hide it anymore.

Since CNN stock is worth over $100 per share, they are a pretty shrewd band of hardcore leftists.

So this show must have been produced by right wingers?
