So people who falsely accuse others of rape should not be charged, using that logic.

I know some people still believe nothing is going to ultimately happen to Jussie, but if the Feds have the evidence to connect the dots between him and the letter now, he's in some serious shite.

I hope she posts the quote from Malcolm X on what he said about the white liberal man.

We won’t know the final toll this hoax will take on society until we see if Jussie falls off of 2019s top 10 most popular baby names.

yeah, he's fine locally. if he catches federal charges, he's in a world of hurt

But why? Why would the existence of such virulent hate make you feel better?
I don't buy into the whole hate thing. The hate crime narrative means nothing to me.
But when someone opens up as saying they were the victim of a crime any crime, I tend to believe them or atleast be open to believe unless the story just does not add up at all in any sense.
I think the fact that someone would fake this whole thing disappoints me more than if this whole story was actually true

you mean a story of some trump supporter wearing a "lock her up" tshirt throwing flaming crosses at black children in inner city baltimore while walking home from school yelling "make america white again" and "go back to africa" isn't true? why would somebody lie about that?
Posted on 2/19/19 at 7:06 pm to upgrayedd
Probably something like “go back 2 Africa you ****** monkey”? On a door hanger in gold marker?
Remember that nonsense? And she never faced any consequences.

While I don't like to necessarily discredit anyone's story without knowing specific details, you are probably right honestly.
The history of racism and shite in this country's past is very well known. That's not something that needs to be explained because we both know that. What I am starting to pick up is that for many people, we feel as if we need to be able to relate to what our ancestors went through, otherwise we are not truly black.
This is what I mean, there have been different times where I have been in spaces, where we discuss when we first realized that we were black. In other words, the first time we encountered racism. Many stories may be true, idk because I wasn't there. What I can say is that I cannot personally relate right here. I don't think I have ever truly encountered racism. I have encountered assholes but nobody racist really unless I completely missed it. Typically responses I would get range from, you're black, all black people have received racism in some form.
That lead and I'm sure many others to basically make stuff fit in our head to be racism. So one of my old teammates whom I did not get along with, obviously he was racist towards me. Or maybe when I walked in the store and I greeted a white couple, but they did not respond, surely they must have been racist as well.
I think for many people, to be a victim of racism is almost like a badge of honor. You're not real unless you have it and can tell the story.

That’s the whole proggie paradigm.
The Victim Olympics.
Instead of doing something worthwhile, they see who can be the biggest victim.

Rahm and activists have forced cops to leak everything to media, so everyone would find out that Jussie was a pos.
Any hush, and his story continues, cops made sure there wasn't a hush, the truth was coming out. They have been 5 steps ahead of his dumbass. They knew everything about the 2 Brothers immediately, thanx to ride apps.
All they needed was the story from the horses mouth, which the 2 brothers gave.
Chicago pd has done a great job, especially with rahm,activists,etc) trying to tie their hands, and not tell the whole truth. Hoping it goes away, some new story pushes it to the back page.

You’ve stated you have a connection to this case, and for a minute let’s believe that’s true... Where does this case go from here? Federal charges? Stall until the next big hoax happens, and let time make people forget?
ETA: And if they stall, does CPD leak everything they have?

My favorite line of the whole saga is when Jussie tells RR about the letter and then goes “did I make that up too”
Could not believe he doubled down like that. He now has to go down with the ship. I just wonder how many people will still support / believe him during his punishment ( especially if they tie the letter to him ).

I agree. They have given him every chance in the world to explain himself but they are just letting him dig that hole deeper and deeper.

My source is an FBI agent working/living in Louisiana. Not saying my connection to him. I'm sure there aren't a boat load of FBI agents in La, who are from Kansas, Oklahoma,Illanoy, or Iowa.
He told me exactly what i said in that comment. Cops have him dead to rights, they have been 5 steps ahead of Jussie, and knew a lot immediately, they just needed those 2 people who Jussie was with. they are just following protocols of their superiors. But leaking everything they can, to make sure everyone knows, this isn't Chicago(attack), and they don't play fake hoaxes.
