"this is a Jackie Robinson against homophobia." --communist Van Jones, on CNN (Communist (fake) News Network)

As far as I know, Jackie never concocted any fake crimes to advance the cause.

Yeah, I bet all the bruthas like the gay son the best of all the characters on the show. /s

[outpostinmass2]

I never heard of him or his show until 3 weeks ago.

I wasn’t an icon before today. Now he is.

Jesse Jackson gave an elegy at Jackie Robinson’s funeral. I remember his refrain, a touching one: “He’s rounded third and headed for home”.

[Olog-hai]

Pity Robinson is no longer with us to put this vile commie in his place.

[treetopsandroofs]

Has CNN or Nike offered him a job yet?

Jones was married to a White woman until recently

I wonder if Jussie is related to Rahm.

Van Jones is delusional. I doubt that most people knew who Smollet was until this hate crime hoax took place.

“Icon”?

Only for losers.

[jmaroneps37]

What a disgusting insult to a fine man who lived an exemplary life and contributed so much to America.

[Roccus]

Would that be the same Jackie Robinson who admittedly refused to hire whites at his Chock Full-O’Nuts coffee shops in NYC?

[dennisw]

Icon? I never heard of Smollett before a few weeks ago.

[JLAGRAYFOX]

Comparing this low life piece of vermin & scum humanity, Democrat, Jussie Smollett to the great Jackie Robinson is pure insanity on the part of Van Jones.

Jackie Robinson was a true “man for all seasons” and a great american to boot. I was one of the blessed Americans to see Jackie Robinson play in Ebbets Field for the Brooklyn Dodgers. He paved the way for all the great African-American baseball players to come up to the major leagues after him. This was truly a great, historical American.

Low life, Jussie Smollett does not belong being mentioned in the same sentence as Jackie Robinson. Case closed!!!

icon lol never even heard of him before til he made up this bs

[AnotherUnixGeek]

CNN’s Van Jones compares Jussie Smollett to Jackie Robinson

Way to smear Jackie Robinson, who never filed fake claims of violence by whites to stir up racial strife. But then, Robinson was a lifelong Republican, so the media is fine with smearing him.

[bigbob]

He blacklashed hisself

[Bob434]

the world knew about robbinson- hardly anyone ever heard of jussie- jussie is NO icon- never was
