wow that's a stretch.

wow that's a stretch.
When police got to his apartment, they said a noose was still around Smollett's neck. He told them he was also doused with an unknown chemical and officers said they smelled bleach on his clothes.
The only real question left is were they really ski masks, or were Jared and Ivanka wearing their KKK hoods?
Which according to some people on this board is literally every crime against black people ever.
And really this whole "Oh black people... don't you be lying now I might not believe you in the future" would come across as a lot more genuine if there was a chance the usual suspects are ever going to believe a report of a white on black crime isn't just race baiting by those uppity colored folks.
And let's be honest, if there were a white person found, they'd just tell us about how the hulkingbrutethug must have tried to fling the poor white guys around like Hulk did to Loki, and how the poor white guy just had to defend themselves even though they're nonviolent blahblahblah...
As I said, CPD is hardly the best in the country, but they seem to be looking into things, while we have little in the way of real info. but in the meantime, I'll take a side, and say I hope they catch the attackers and punish them to the full extent of the law.
So did anybody check the sidewalk where the supposedly happened to see if there was bleach residue?
If two ******** were out to gety somebody, and planed it to the point of carrying a rope and bleach, I doubt they would stop at a splash and draping a noose on him. Kick, boot. stomp, not just a bruised face and rib.
My guess: Fight with a partner, or a fall down the stairs, or the scooter, friend comes to pick him up, the two cook up the rest of the story on the way to the hospital. "Hey, didn't you get a letter last week? I think I have some rope and a bottle of washer fluid in the trunk...."
Potential for more evidence: Phone records? More rope in car trunk?

Jesus H.......absolutely not a single shred of anything whatsoever to support your little makey uppie scenario. What is it with some people that makes it impossible to accept that someone might be telling the truth, particularly when that person has no motive to make the story up...
We know of successful and also famous people with much to lose who have made colossal errors in judgement.Why on earth would a successful person involve himself in something like this as a deliberate fraud? Does your "sniff test" not work the other way too? Mine does, and the idea that someone would risk ruining their career with a stunt like this fails to pass my sniff test. Unless, of course, you've got some evidence.
If it was a white guy we would not have heard **** about it, because white people get mugged all the time in that area, and it does not crack the daily briefs section of the major papers around here, let alone the nationwide hysteria.
Bet you did not hear about these future community organizers stomping women about 4 blocks from our hero, now did you?
Just an old fashioned mugging
Police said the women were walking or standing on the sidewalk during afternoon or evening hours when groups of robbers began striking them with fists, knocking them to the ground, and kicking them. Phones and purses have been taken by the offenders who then run away from the scene.
I imagine he was just looking for a footlong.
Apparently 'more than a dozen' detectives, plus beat cops, aren't sufficient to investigate this heinous act of violence, congressman Bobby Rush (whoever the **** he is) "wants the FBI to open a hate crime investigation."
I'm just glad this Smollett guy isn't receiving preferential treatment.

Bobby Rush was a major figure in the Black Panthers and was and is a major race gifter
The "rope" seems to be devolving to be a "cord". Regardless of that, if the item is a factor, it's possible he was trying to do a David Carradine, whether alone or with a partner, and it got out of hand. I can see that as being sufficiently embarassing enough to make up a story.
