Why are the radicalized right wing extremists obsessed with Justin Smollett?

Did the cops get Smolletted also?

I don’t think they did.

The cops and folks getting Smolletted are two different groups. The cops did their job. They took the report from the victim and then did their research until it led them to where we are now. Because a reader of Smollett story could tell it didn’t pass the sniff test doesn’t change how the cops go about their jobs.

"Not long after these tweets surfaced, Chicago Police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi wrote on Twitter, "Media reports anout [sic] the Empire incident being a hoax are unconfirmed by case detectives. Supt Eddie Johnson has contacted @ABC7Chicago to state on the record that we have no evidence to support their reporting and their supposed CPD sources are uninformed and inaccurate."

That's a far cry from this:

If you recall, they did come out at one point and say it wasn't phony.

I don’t think they did.

Christiecrite knows that trained investigators are highly experienced at detecting bullshit.

Feel free to use it!

Let’s make a word out of it.

Ok! Lets do it!

See, there's your preconceived notion, that it was outlandish from day one.

Guy walking around in the small hours during a hard freeze...people carrying bleach and a rope are prowling the streets looking for a target...when suddenly...

I don’t think they did.

Then neither did "so many Democrats." We're no different from the cops. Believe the person until there's overwhelming evidence otherwise.

I still believe Smollet…...I don't believe in the racist white man, his kops, or his media.

I'm not blowing any tweets up nor am I running from you racist fucks.

The kops have a track record white people don't know about.

LOL

No, you are mistaken. I believe hate attacks can and do occur in this country. Hearing this story didn’t pass the sniff test for me. That’s not a preconceived notion

[tinfoil]

Just wondering why liberals are being criticized for believing Smollett when it's no different from what the cops believed at first.

LOL
you really don't know how to decide for yourself, do you? You don't know how to think about evidence and plausibility? I feel sorry for you NPCs

[tinfoil]

Basically, liberals are fucking stupid people

Like you believed Roy Moore and Brett Kavanaugh?

If you didn't instantly know that this story was a staged hate-hoax, then you are a gullible fool and you should take steps to mitigate your lack of critical thought processes.

An attack like that isn't completely off the charts crazy.

Kate Elizabeth Piper (born 12 October 1983) is an English philanthropist, television presenter and former model from Andover, Hampshire.
In March 2008, she was attacked with acid by her ex-boyfriend and an accomplice, causing major damage to her face and blindness in one eye. Piper underwent pioneering surgery to restore her face and vision.

A woman who was slashed across the face as she walked to work in New York City on Wednesday morning says she is still in disbelief...
At around 6 a.m. Wednesday, Amanda Lynn Morris was walking through Chelsea in Manhattan to the Whole Foods where she works. Suddenly, a blade-wielding homeless man ran up to her...
"As soon as I saw him, my instinct was 'I can cross the road' but I didn't because I thought I'll be fine," she said. But then he attacked, slashing her across the face.

Marla Hanson is an American screenwriter and ex-model.

"...After working selling real estate and insurance, a job promotion brought [Marla Hanson] to New York City. There, a part-time modeling job eventually became a full-time career in the 1980s.
In June 1986, she rejected the sexual advances of her landlord, Steve Roth. Roth hired two friends, Steven Bowman and Darren Norman, to attack Hanson. Hanson testified that Roth asked her to step outside a bar, and then stood by while the two men, after announcing a "stick-up," slashed her face with a razor blade. The assault left three wounds that required surgery and over 100 stitches to close,^[1] resulting in permanent scars...
