A lot of explosive material can get defused with nine little letters: I was wrong. It works wonders with your significant other. Try it. Frequently.
This week, now that the Chicago Police Department has shifted the trajectory of the investigation and now believes Jussie Smollett may have faked his own bias attack, well be hearing apologies from a lot of progressive activists, celebrities and politicians.
With three simple words, theyll disarm their detractors, pour oil on troubled waters. Theyll help to reunify a culture by admitting that sometimes their ideological opponents are correct.
Just kidding. Dont hold your breath waiting for mea culpas from Cory Booker, Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi and Kamala Harris, or (throwback time!) Al Sharpton, who opined that if Donald Trump simply remained silent on the Smollett matter, it would be sinister. The formerly successful actress Ellen Page blamed the nonexistent assault on
Mike Pence.

keep in mind this story was picked up worldwide - as were previous hoaxes.
the damage is immeasurable.
arrests need to be made...fast. not grand juries.
Since the Truth is not in these people and their system of social admiration ranking is geared upon a progressively subject definition of morality... personally, I think Smollett missed a big opportunity.
He’s already doubly protected (black, gay) and doubly royal (Hollywood, resistance), but he could still advance his status while resolving his crisis.
He should declare ‘hate hoaxer’ the 28th gender, claim he identifies as such and then sue anybody who denies his right to f*ck with the truth.
Grand jury is the way to go. Sorry to disagree but he will take the 5th at the grand jury, the nigerian rent boyz will spill their guts, the bank will show the cash transfers, the phone company will reveal all of the calls and Jusshomo will please to a lesser offense.
What about jury nullification?
...not when it’s for hire...
This happened at the Air Force Academy a couple years ago. A slur was written on a mirror. The leadership went nuts. Dressed down the entire student body. It was a false flag. A black student wrote the slur. I expect the incident disappeared without a peep once this was known.
I remember it...
The cops have done their job here in a tough situation.
The “law” part is being satisfied, I do not have the same confidence in the “order” part given the Chicago Democrat machine
Hate means never having to say your sorry.
Perhaps, but then we'd have to get on Twitter which as near as I can tell has taken over the role formerly occupied by CB radio as a medium for people with nothing to say and with whom you would not want to associate because they're idiots.
As if anyone was expecting apologies from those who believe that their lies are Gospel.
The leftist media is your enemy, folks. Treat them that way.

Nope. When it comes out they’ll just parrot the “The ‘FACT’ that it could have happened is criminal in itself.” If the little assclown does something to itself out of depression or desperation, it’ll really get ugly.
i’m still suspicious about the Jussie/Kamala connection and the lynching bill, especially as:
19 Dec 2018: National Review: The Senate Codes Gender Identity Into Anti-Lynching Bill
By Madeleine Kearns
A source on the Hill told me that many Republicans are uneasy about the coding of gender identity as it had not appeared in the original text. Some tried to strike it from the bill, but these efforts were unsuccessful. This is partly because gender identity was slipped into the bill at the last minute. Apparently, this amendment was made to the managers package put together by judiciary staff which are intended to be uncontroversial clarifications led by Republican Senator Chuck Grassley. The Democrats were then able to weaponize this as serious opposition could be interpreted as Republicans being opposed to anti-lynching legislation.
Though the bill will be sent to the House, it is unlikely to be voted on. Nevertheless, the casual insertion of gender identity into federal law sets a dangerous precedent...

what a perfect prelude to the initial Jussie attack story.
No apology needed. Not expecting one. All I want is that asshat arrested, charged, convicted and sentenced to some decent time in jail. Ooooh...the guys on cell block #9 are gonna love Jussie baby. Fresh fish.
That's right, they won't criticize his actions or intent, only his ineptness at following through. Oh, and the 'rats will call him stupid, ignorant, and far worse - in private. These are characterizations he probably does deserve. However, should anyone on the right even think those things too loudly, the social justice fascists would pounce screaming racist, hater, etc. all for the conservatives' alleged lack of diversity - while they demonize him or her for daring to think differently than them...
It could have happened...
They want this one swept under the rug as quietly as possible.
They never apologize and when they do it’s on the 1am news or buried in some obscure section in the paper or a hidden link on their news site.
