“Because we would not now all look like the idiots we are if it actually happened.”

It was an opportunity to pretend they held the moral high ground while they murder babies, attack whites/Asians, endorse infidelity - you name it.

The racial boogeyman is a bulwark of Dem agitation; I still remember the dragging death of James Byrd, and that set us back decades.

Prager is right; but I would qualify that thusly:
There is little racism on the conservative side.
OTOH, there is massive racism on the left; they seldom think of anything else. It bugs me to see people looking at me trying, hoping to find racism.
And if they keep up their style they’ve displayed the past 40 years, they may make a racist out of me yet. I’m tired of it.

[ Representative Eric Swalwell (D., Calif.), a white leftist, tweeted, “I hope this was not something that Mr. Smollett did to himself, or created.” ]

Ah, Swalwell. The Democrat who is going to use America’s nuclear weapons on American gun-owners.

It’s a dem technique. Fake a crime to not the narrative to support radical legislation. Harris introduced an unnecessary pandering anti-lynching bill. This incident gave attention to lynching when no lynchings were going on.

That was the purpose of Fast and Furious Sell american guns to mexican drug cartels and when they are fund incomes, use to to support tighter gun control. But it backfired when they got a border patrol agent and some mexicans killed.

Because some folks have a tilted view and find nothing more pleasurable than sowing the seeds of discord between people of differing backgrounds in our society.

Racism is a precious thing that confers great power, like the infamous ring in The Lord of the Rings. The regret that Leftists feel so keenly is that of a scarce resource--racism--that eluded their grasp.

They wish more racism existed, so they could use it. In this instance, in their deranged state, they somehow missed the step where you're happy when you find out a bad thing never happened--just as when you're happy when you learn your kid didn't lie to you. And where you're sorry for the evil thoughts you rashly and unjustly harbored about a fellow man.

Leftists are Gollum--corrupted to their very souls by pride, disdain, ill-will, and a desire for power that outweighs morality, and really, the entire world.

Because that half-black actor on the down-low could use a good beat-down. Now, more than ever, considering what has come out.

“Washington Post columnist Jonathan Capehart told MSNBC there has been “an atmosphere of menace and hate” since Donald Trump was elected president, which made “people want to believe”

Entirely driven by the media and not based on any fact. Blood is on your hands, Johnny boy.

That’ why they put so much effort into this investigation...

They wanted to find those evil Trump supporters

Nobody is more disappointed than them that is was a hoax.

They don’t even care how WE feel about it.

Why not? They desperately want weather catastrophes to happen and cause misery to millions of people, and are disappointed when it doesn’t happen. What’s the difference?

The demand for bigots in this country far exceeds the supply.
