    You're credibility just went up. It took real integrity to step up like this and I certainly respect you for it. I hope no one gives you a hard time over this.

    In T's defense, he has a lot of people to shout out to. Zorro is one who came to my mind. He'll probably haveta skim the thread for a bit to list them. I think the fact that he did it at all is what we should be commending. I gotta admit, I didn't think he would and I was wrong.

    This. Attacking people who were wrong, yet had the courage to admit it and apologize is a real low. I know there've been plenty of times I was wrong and admitting it is hard, even harder to be made fun of for it.

    Supabad liar Smollett. No wonder he needed to stage a publicity stunt. He's a
    "My body is strong, my soul is stronger," says Jussie. hahahaha
    The two Nigerians were released but the police said earlier today 2/16 that the focus is now on Jussie himself who the police believe staged the incident. Strange twists and turns in this story but it all comes down to a simpleton staging an attack upon himself. He will be charged with filing false police report before long.

    I think it explains why he's an actor, not a writer.

    I do believe they will need to write him off. They just started filming the new season, so there is ample opportunity to craft the narrative now - even to secure his cooperation with a few shots to set up the narrative, in exchange for a severance package or something. The harm from his actions will spill into the rest of the show and hurt the other cast members too. I am reminded of the show house of cards where SPOILER ALERT..



    Kevin spacey just...died...in between seasons and they had a couple of shots of the wife standing over the casket and some paper headlines.

    I tracked down some additional folks that deserve apologies: @ModCon , @RedWolf , @AmericanNationalist , @RP12 , @Revax , @drluggit , @Stonewall Jackson , @struth , @Sanskrit , @Curious Always , @Lil Mike , @Gatewood , @LogNDog , @Thought Criminal , @Robert , @Zorro , @guavaball .

    I apologize for buying into, spreading, and defending this hoax. And I apologize for any aspersions that I directed towards you personally. I bought his narrative, in some significant part, because I want to believe the alleged victim as a default and because I wanted to see MAGA as the villain. Both beliefs were wrong in this situation and are wrong, in general, to some degree. A larger degree than I was previously willing to see.

    I respect the way you held your ground against waves of opposition. You did so with integrity. You didn't resort to gutter level tactics. You took a position and defended it to the ability that you were able to, given available information. Kudos!

    Wow! You called it 3 weeks ago!
    Good Youtube on this that asks why all the headlines we are seeing read "Attack" rather than "alleged attack".

    Smollett now faces some 3 years in prison https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...PAID-two-Nigerian-brothers-ATTACK-street.html

    Pardon my reflexive repulsion at any parent, aunt or uncle who would say don't grow up and be successful kid. This isn't something that people of any race normally do. Disowning a child because they're gay would be emotionally hurtful to the child but this is not the same thing as saying grow up and be a bum. It's often done because of their religious or social beliefs about homosexuality. Apples and oranges ...

    There is something to be said for empirical evidence. You don't have to believe just me, though. I would love to see a poll of black people on this question. If even 50 percent of black people corroborated your beliefs, I would retract my statement. This won't happen.

    However, reality doesn't support your theory. If what you believe is true the members of the Congressional Black Caucus wouldn't be legislators, Obama wouldn't have become President, etc. No one is held back by being inspired by a beautiful song that passes the torch to the younger generation. It says soar, be successful, don't squander the sacrifices that were made for you by previous generations.

    Your premise that telling kids that they're gifted suggests that they don't need to work to get ahead is severely flawed. Being gifted is not a license to be a slacker. There are Gifted and Talented programs in schools across the country. The kids in these programs typically have to do more academic work than kids on traditional tracks or at least they're learning more advanced material.

    It's interesting that you're the only one who has been using the phrase white privilege in this conversation. There is a natural tendency for people to learn about their heritage and race is one part of identity. Accepting these realities shouldn't shackle anyone. It's condescending and inaccurate to insist that others should believe as you do or they won't be successful.

    Bullshit too

    Trump has gone on record as proudly stating that he could shoot down people in the street and his puling sycophants....er...advocates, would still defend him. Now it seems that applies to his minions attacking people as well

    Especially when the Keystone Kops see a way out of doing their job.

    The guy's manager heard the attack, that's as much corroboration as most MeToo attacks get, years later.

    While I appreciate and accept your apology, I don't feel owed one.

    Besides, the three-day waiting period for these new anonymous reports isn't over yet.

    They are probably whiter than Elizabeth Warren is Native American at least.

    So these "attackers" were black....and they knew this actor. Sounds fishy to be some supposed racially motivated hate crime.

    This is now two BIG stories that were fake, all based on false reports followed by obvious media bias to bring it to the forefront all to make MAGA and Trump supporters look bad, but then were proven to be the opposite of what was reported leaving the left and the media with egg on their face and eating crow.

    I think Jussie and Nathan Phillips should be forced to share a cell together. Maybe Jussie can sing along to Nathan's drum, while being forced to wear a MAGA hat.
