Jussie Smollett's "Empire" screen time is getting slashed in the wake of a growing sentiment that he staged the so-called "attack."
Production sources tell TMZ ... Jussie was supposed to have 9 scenes and a big musical number in the second to the last episode -- which is being shot now -- but, 5 of his scenes have been cut, and his musical number has been 86'd.
As for the remaining 4 scenes ... we're told he's no longer the focus. The scene features an ensemble, meaning he's flanked by a number of cast members.

If the anti-porn activists are correct, if porn actually contributes to rape, then starting around 1999 as the Internet made it much more easily available, the rate of sexual assault should have increased.

...and that’s in spite of the fact that everything from groping to saying, “Nice sweater,” is now sexual assault
All of which has nothing to do with the crime of rape not being sexually in nature.
And porn is thus not universally destructive.
Porn and rape are two unassociated issues.
Well, thank you, Doctor.
I hope you’ll understand
if I get a second opinion.
No, please do. You need one.
Now he will sue like that football player and make millions....
It’s too early to tell, but it appears more likely that he will go to the hoosegow.
