    it questions it no doubt but it also doesn't say the story shouldn't be investigated. The story was investigated and those who had questions were shown to be correct. There's a reason we have a phrase called the "sniff test". We've all heard stories in our lives where our b.s. detector goes up. This was one.

    You're right, no one said it shouldn't be investigated, least of all the liberals here. Both sides wanted an investigation, where we differed was in whether we thought it was a real or made-up event.

    I still want to know why the brothers aren't being prosecuted, seeing as how they're every bit as responsible as Smollett for what happened. I get the impression that what they did doesn't matter to cons as long as they were able to help bring down Jussie.

    What are liberals saying about the brothers? The story is about Smollett. I have no idea what tact the CPD are taking with the brothers or if they gave them immunity to sing.

    Well I don't know how many people here actually blamed Trump for this, so I don't know. All I can say is I don't think if this was a real attack, it would have been Trump's fault.

    Didn't Smollett say one of the guys was wearing a red hat? Can you blame people for thinking he was telling the truth?

    Do you have any kids?

    yes two.......one is smarter than you......I'm still holding out hope for my daughter........out of curiosity, anytime in the last two weeks did you see anything posted around here by anyone who might have been trying to draw a connection between the two people who Smollett said had attacked him and a certain president of a country in say, North America?.........

    Your entire post is one long racist meme that you're using to insult TTQ, and you have the nerve to say you see character, not color.
    Yeah especially all the parts that say skin color has nothing to do with it! You are also playing victim, do me a favor pull up your big girl panties and move on. Stop miring our country with your personal failure.

    Honestly, no. I'm sure some people blamed Trump for this because of how he talks, but I haven't seen anyone here say that.

    Would you want your kids acting the way you act here? Calling someone a cunt just because they disagree about something?

    Keep repeating your standard race-based insults about laziness, fathers sticking around, living off other people's money, plantations, inner-city slums and all the rest. I suppose you're not smart enough to understand what those kinds of comments say about you, despite all your protestations that you "see character, not color."

    No, Smollett didn't say that, the RW media did. Smollett claimed the attackers shouted "this is MAGA country" and the RWNJs immediately translated that to wearing MAGA hats.
