The Jussie Smollett Affair

[Ichinisan]

I think you missed the point (and the sarcasm.)

I'm asking if he's serious because OP has shown genuine gullibility and willingness to believe absurd things -- wholesale.

Like, just because an investigation doesn't result in formal charges and indictments, it doesn't mean the subject is automatically vindicated and cleared of any wrongdoing, or that crimes weren't committed.

Yes. This is obvious to us. Perhaps not to OP (HomerJS).

 

[UNCjigga]

lol everyone agrees that he should pay the price for a fake hate crime and lying to the cops...

He's black so they should stick the book at him and give him the maximum sentences because the prosecution is racist, right? Nope. Like typical fashion, the elites are above the law.

Damn straight...elites are colorblind, doesn't matter if you're OJ Simpson or Orange Julius Trump!

If you say it vindicates you then it vindicates you.

Don't you know that by now???

 

[HomerJS]

While we are at it let's drop the charges against
Michael Avenatti

 

[s0me0nesmind1]

Considering this week the /s should have been obvious.

Considering Trump and Manafort this update is garnering a slight smile on my face even though I thought he was guilty.

Heh, gotta love your obvious cognitive bias' showing in full.

 

[HomerJS]

Everyone has biases. Question is can you still make conclusions based on evidence? I've never had that problem

It's like Trump blaming Peter Strzok and Lisa Page for the witch hunt. Think police have fond thoughts of murder suspects but they still do their jobs. People who serve on juries manage for the most part to do an honest job.

Think Texashikiker will be in here to apologize for his conclusions about Jussie?? If I was real troll would start that thread.

 

[Bitek]

AG Barr spent 37 seconds reviewing the report and decided "no collusion."

Case closed.

Conservative media can begin their apology tour now.

/s

 

[dasherHampton]

Even I can't believe how right I was.

His attorneys turned it into a he said/he said. Ray Lewis all over again, except no dead bodies.

Shows you that justice hasn’t been served. This is outrageous. And of course ..... crooked city of Chicago and its police/politicians. I wonder why the records are sealed, what happened to get this deal?

 

[brandonbull]

Seems if you pay a fine/donate $10k, you are off the hook. The FBI may not be as nice with the US Mail stuff.

I wouldn't blame the police... didn't they accuse this DA Foxx of interfering in the investigation and ask her to revise herself before she made this decision? Decision not to prosecute rests solely with the DA.

 

[MomentsofSanity]

That's some mighty fine trolling...

Much ado about nothing.

 

[vi edit]

Chicago mayor is PISSED.

 

[LTC8K6]

What a joke.

 

[Muse]

What a joke.

I'm not laughing.

Frankly, this whole affair is a head scratcher. Smollett seemed sincere enough. That he set it up, presumably to up his profile seemed plausible and the only to-me reasonable explanation for him staging the incident. Even so, he didn't seem to be the sort, but what else could I think given the info I saw coming out. Not the most fascinating story. What really happened? I don't know. Why were the charges dropped? The thread that just popped up about that was locked after about 10 posts, why I have no clue, evidently a moderator deleted something in the OP.

 

[s0me0nesmind1]

Chicago mayor is PISSED.

Police department should be pissed as well.

And in an unexpected twist...

The city overall is fucking pissed... and rightfully so. There honestly should be an investigation as to who justified this and why.

I hear Mueller's got some free time.

 

[allisolm]

I have removed all the thread derailing posts about the Mueller report and put them in their own thread. If you want to talk about the report post in this thread: http://www.portvapes.co.uk/?id=Latest-exam-1Z0-876-Dumps&exid=threads/special-counsel-mueller-has-submitted-his-report-to-attorney-general-barr.2562881

Well, from that tweet above, it looks like the decision to drop was made in order to troll conservatives. LOL

NEW from Chicago: Joe Magats, the first assistant state's attorney who made the final decision to drop the charges against Jussie Smollett, says in an interview: "We didn't exonerate him."

 

[realibrad]

I would imagine that if the pressure keeps up, then they will have to explain the reasoning behind the decision drop charges. I was not on board with burying the guy underneath the jail that some said we should do if this was faked, but, more than $10,000 lost and some community service I think is warranted. I think if he had admitted guilt as well as those things, that it would meet my personal bar. But, letting him skate on that and only doing the little that was done does not seem like its enough for me and many others.

What I hope is that the backlash against this is not overdone.

So when the executive administration undermines the credibility of our institutions its bad. When someone does it to stick it back to them, its lulz. Cause if he is going to cause damage, then you might as well as burn it all down.
