DP I guess I'm creating a-holes of all my students by forcing them to question as they examine an issue through multiple lenses. For example, when I heard about Subway, I looked it up and did see they are open 24-7 in Chicago. But since when do you talk to a person with your cell is in your pocket? The phone fell out during the scuffle - and was as unharmed as the sandwich, which he had in his hands when he entered his apartment. caught on video Miraculously, he had a small abrasion on his face even though one man punched his front while another hit him in the back. And then they suddenly stopped and walked off. We're not to question these tidbits he shared publicly? Clearly you never participated in mock trial as a kid. This case would be a gem! |
What a surprise. |

I was initially shocked at the reported events. If it turns out he’s a fraud, he should be arrested/fined for wasting LEs time.
Nothing more, nothing less. Republicans will want to spin this into some false flag conspiracy. Or as evidence that racism or anti-gay violence is over reported. Of course none of that is true. But they get off on this stuff. One interesting observation: typically when a black or Latino is accused of something, there is an arrest or engagement w/ police. In both this case and the one in TX where a white guy was falsely accused of shooting someone *no white ppl were actually impacted*. Only racists walked away with hurt feelings. When it happens to black ppl, some1 is, at best harassed and falsely detained. Black ppl rountinely pay for “mistakes”. White ppl just get hurt feelings. |

This is great news!!! Jussie's story is really starting to fall apart here. Just yesterday he was on GMA lambasting the public for not believing him. Today he is curiously silent about the attempted lynching that he so heroically fought back against all while staying on the phone with his agent and miraculously saving his sub. https://www.cnn.com/2019/02/15/entertainment/jussie-smollett-suspects/index.html |
| Someone get Kamala Harris on the phone for comment.. |
Why was Kamala need to respond to this? |
Lol. She's a hack! |
Don Lemon would disagree. |
| Just a reminder that every alleged hijab attack turned out to be a hoax |
She called the alleged attack a “modern day lynching” |
Didn’t Don say he’s been texting Jussie everyday since the incident? Get Don on the phone, too! |
yes - They are buds! |
| Dems can latch onto these hoaxes and not have to retract anything not face consequences. Remember the Albany bus hate crime hoax? Hillary brought that up and never retracted when it was revealed to be a lie . |
