Jussie Smollett’s conviction tossed by Illinois Supreme Court on technicality

[Man With A Plan]

Given how often the CPD lies to the public in Chicago, I just can't get worked up that someone lied to them.

He didn't murder anyone. NO one was harmed in the incident except him, and he also lost his career. Going after him for a prank was just excessive.



Religion is the biggest money-making scam in the world.



Neither one is a choice.

When did you decide to be straight? I'm guessing, like right after puberty, you realized girls aren't icky and you want to tap that,

Gays realize the same thing, just about the same sex.

I'm hard pressed to think of many things that could be more destructive to a society than starting a race war, Joey! What Smollet did was akin to what Al Sharpton did with the Brawley case years ago. He tried to whip up outrage over white racists committing a heinous crime against a black man in a city already divided by race animus and he did so for purely selfish reasons...thinking it would help keep him on a television series.

Actually government is, but you won't agree with that.

I thought sexuality was far more mutable, or do bisexuals not exist?

And some of those 57 "genders" actually cover sexuality. Are you going against leftist orthodoxy now?

The point that went over your tiny head was that your sexuality wasn't a choice. there wasn't (I hope) a moment when you were deciding between gay and straight. You knew you were straight.

Actually, guy the Race War started in 1619 when the first black person was brought over here in chains.

No one started a race war over Brawley, and no one started a race war over Smollett, either.

So all those genders are bullshit?

You can't have it both ways. Also again you ignore bisexual people.

And once again, the issue is tolerance vs. forced acceptance or even celebration.

Where did you get that from my statement. Okay, I guess you had all those other choices, too, but funny, you still chose straight. That would indicate that you had a choice, scrolled through all the choices, and went with heterosexual. Or maybe you were always hetero.

And once again, the issue is tolerance vs. forced acceptance or even celebration.

No, it's about access to public accommodations. If you don't want to be part of it FIND SOMETHING ELSE TO DO FOR A LIVING.

Or maybe the left plays games with things being black/white when it suits them, and nuanced when it suits them.

No, FIND ANOTHER BAKER/PHOTOGRAPHER

There's no nuance here. The Kleins acted like complete jackasses.

you harp on that one case, about them being jackasses, and yet you act like a jackass.

Anyone who disagrees with you has to suck at what they do, be some sort of nutjob, etc etc etc.

Narcissism, psychopathy, miserableness.

That's the JoeB way.

Only a complete nutjob would tank their business to please a sky pixie.

Like I said, poor Mrs. Klein looks like a scared rabbit, but her no-account husband was having the time of his life, going from taking orders at his wife's business to being the toast of the town on the Jesus circuit.

Only a miserable **** would want someone to either tank their business or submit to government overreach.

Your fantasies about the situation are not fact.

No, they were targeted by an unconstitutional application of a PA law.

Our courts are so corrupt:

Jussie Smollett conviction overturned by Illinois Supreme Court

Jussie Smollett's hate crime hoax conviction was overturned by the Illinois Supreme Court on Thursday. The actor had been convicted of five felony counts in December 2021.

www.foxnews.com

They claim his rights were violated because the original DA dropped charges, and a special prosecutor later then charged him.

Forget about Jussie Smollett. Who is he anyways? Some actor? He's not a politician. Can you imagine if a politician did something like this? Can you imagine if a REPUBLICAN did something like this? Well you no longer have to wonder.

GOP Aide Who Said Men Knifed Her And Wrote 'TRUMP WHORE' On Belly Is Charged​

The alleged victim was said to have been brutalized in the anti-Trump attack because of her association with an N.J. lawmaker.

Greene was working for Rep. Jeff Van Drew (R-N.J.) at the time, outlets determined. An unnamed co-conspirator had claimed it was Greene’s association with the GOP lawmaker that attackers mentioned during their alleged assault July 23, according to the report.

Officers arrived to find a crying Greene tied up with numerous cuts and “TRUMP WHORE” written on her stomach and Van Drew (called Federal Official 1 in the news release) “IS RACIST” on her back, the summary noted. She said she had been threatened at gunpoint, held down and cut numerous times, officers said.

Did Jeff Van Drew help her? Who wrote on her back?

Pretty stupid of her if true.

Difference is she will go to prison, when Smollett got to walk, despite the fact absolutely no one heard or cared about this story, but in the Smollett case the MSM ran with it and attacked MAGA nonstop over the hoax.

Will she go to prison, though? Or will she cop a plea, claim a mental breakdown, and get some suspended sentence from the court, just like Kim Foxx originally did with Smollett?

The thing about the Smollett story was that it fell apart in about a week, and frankly, the CPD didn't buy it from the start (too many inconsistencies).

The other reason why it was believable is that you already had the MAGA Nazis engaging in all sorts of racial hate crimes across the country.

How liberal is the media if this wasn't top story? I'm sure Juicy was top story on Fox News. Because it was a black, gay, liberal, Democrat. You guys loved talking about that story.

This is why I say Republicans play chess while Democrats play checkers. LOL. Democrats really are idiots. At least our leadership. Chuck Schumer needs to go.

Bullshit. The leftwing media ran with it and promoted it as absolute truth. With your favorite leftwing celebrities coming out to “support” poor old Jussie and attack MAGA.

There aren’t any cases of actual MAGA attacking black people, multiple hoaxes have been exposed. Like that dumb NASCAR driver and his fake “noose” that traumatized him.

If MAGA was attacking blacks it would be all over the news all the time and you wouldn’t need your hoaxes.

Today MAGA is going after Muslims. Yesterday was Hispanics. I believe blacks may be next when Trump sends the troops into Chicago and other US Cities.

Don't forget Elon asked GROK and GROK said the right is more violent.
