I know. How absolutely fascist of me to wait until all of the facts surrounding an incident come to light and take them into account before screaming that somebody or some group of people should be burned at the stake.

I'm terrible.

If the event was reported as real (which it was), and pounded on by anti-Trumpers as if it were real (which it was) even tho it was (or might have been) a staged event ... how did it come to be reported as "fact"? Where is all of that FACT CHECKING that reporters are supposed to do before they go running off to their 'puters? Isn't that what REPORTERS are supposed to do? Heck, if they can't even be bothered to sort fact from hoax, what value are they adding to the process?

NONE, as far as I can tell. They may as well go work for those gossip rags at the checkstands because that's all they do is pass along gossip. Apparently can't be bothered to do any investigation or put any thought into their "reporting" at all.



SIGHEIL spends her time reading the New York Post, Zerosh*t and watching TMZ. No wonder your view of the Weird is so upside down and backwards.

Hey, I wasn't going to say anything about this until SNUGGIES decided to use it as an obvious idiot hack job Putinesque, Trumpian attack on the Free Press. Where's my props? Whaaaaa....

Seems like he just got fired from "Empire", whatever that was...

We'll have to wait and see if that was reactionary on the parts of whoever made the show.



All that can be said for sure is that somebody is going to turn out looking like assholes after the dust settles. It's hilarious to sit back and watch this stuff unfold and watch the crazies scream on youtube and twitter about "justice".

lol




My money is that Trump put Smollett on his payroll and had this entire event staged. I'm only half joking here.







Edited to add...

lol... see I just did it even though I was trying not to do it. Idiots saying he was fired were either misinformed or lying.

Production sources tell TMZ ... Jussie was supposed to have 9 scenes and a big musical number in the second to the last episode -- which is being shot now -- but, 5 of his scenes have been cut, and his musical number has been 86'd.

As for the remaining 4 scenes ... we're told he's no longer the focus. The scene features an ensemble, meaning he's flanked by a number of cast members.



Fuck man... we can't even get straight news on something as absolutely trivial as this anymore.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

Oh dear.

All of that uninformed hyperventilating and spittle ... gone to waste.

Sigh.

These 3 clowns need better scriptwriters, reality isn't the same as their gay delusional fantasies.

I hear now that this Racist gay Black pretend actor was also openly a Trump basher.
Can't be too surprised. Democrat Racist. Democrat Gay. Democrat Black. Democrat false Accuser. Democrat delusional.

This is doing a good job of taking attention away from a real terrorist.

Probably from people like you instigating violence all the time, Marcos.




Idiots throwing around the term Civil War are just about as helpful as idiots throwing around the term Nazi all the time.

The MSM would love a Civil War. But it could never happen right now. Our militarized police forces would roll over both sides before it ever began.






By the way. Smollett was arrested this morning on class 4 felony charges.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

And?

An idiot ruined his career.

Another idiot planned to murder as many "enemies" of Trump as he could.

One is scarier than the other.

Yet we focus on the celebrity, every time.
