Sure will! Fake hate crimes are at epidemic levels. Everyone should be informed.

This is Chicago. They used a grand jury to indict him, too afraid to pin it on the States Attorney.

Hate crimes happen - white on black, black on white, black on asian, asian on white, etc. etc. -- and idiots like these take away attention from REAL hate crimes and they devalue it.

The next time someone burns a synagogue or church or whatever, people will doubt

Jussie needs to have the book thrown at him (and THAT's not a hate crime :)

There’s no way that a jury of his peers will convict him.

I tend to agree with you bro. 9 or 10 of the jurors will let him walk. They don't care what the evidence is. Now, if he were a white dude, he would probably get the death penalty, for spitting on the sidewalk. 👎

I hope the dude goes down, but finding a jury of his peers, that will convict him, in a city, almost totally liberal, might be hard to do. Jury nullification, will allow him to walk.

This is actually pretty much the normal routine. It’s a non-violent crime, he’s represented by counsel, so he’ll surrender about 9, get booked, have a bail hearing at 11:30, get bonded out, and be home by 2. They’ll probably offer to let him leave the back way, but he’ll want to make a courthouse steps speech.

Before it’s all over he gets a medal from Rahm and a parade in his honor.

My prediction is he will not serve any jail time and it is highly likely that if it is a jury trial, jury nullification will occur and he will walk.

He is of multiple, modern day protected classes and the useful idiots of chicago will come to his aid.

I have zero faith in government or the judicial system in this country. The way Roger Stone was arrested is just one of a seemingly uncountable things that show white people are under attack by our government at all levels, from federal to state to city to local.

He has a much clearer path to daylight than OJ had and look how that turned out. They will be naming streets and parks for him in 5 years.

I can’t help but wonder how many Coast Guard heroes there are out there just waiting silently like boomer subs, just keeping track of our domestic enemies, silently, patiently waiting so the minute SHTF those bastards can’t slink away. Helps me sleep at night.

“My prediction is he will not serve any jail time and it is highly likely that if it is a jury trial, jury nullification will occur and he will walk”

And the two brothers probably already have received immunity since they were needed for the Grand Jury testimony. May well be that they all walk.

He should be...and all Trump supporters should be filing a class action lawsuit to get our reputations back....

I suggested that yesterday as well.

This is no different than CNN defaming Nick Sandmann and the Covington teens only it’s ALL of us they were trying to defame.

... and, I have to say, I’m disappointed in the way President Trump dealt with that. Ooh! An angry tweet. Yeah. THAT gets a lot done. WHY wasn’t Wray called on the carpet and fired for okaying this garbage? Why wasn’t EVERY corrupt FBI agent involved with this decision immediately fired?

Don’t forget dragging Stone’s elderly, hearing impaired, barefoot wife outside clad only in a nightgown.
