    I googled "smollett meme" and got so many that it was hard to choose just one. :D:D The "Blazing Saddles" theme is a biggie.

    I do wonder if Jesse and Bubba (NASCAR) driver are related. They both have gephyrophobia. Just the sight of a garage door pull rope with a loop handle was enough to send Bubba to the media.

    I am still pondering over what the motivation for Jussie’s fraudulent act was.
    He certainly wasn’t being persecuted for indeed, he was a major actor on Empire which played on a black network (BET) and was being paid mucho dinero. (or would that be “dubs” in the vernacular of his community)

    He was living higher and maybe being higher than a wide swath of white guys so what was his beef? If it was to get more notoriety, he certainly got that but not the way he wanted it.
    Maybe if he would have copied Cosby or OJ and left the race and homophobia thing out of it he might have aspired to greater heights in the crime community.
    As it is, he turned out to be just a punk with very little chance of getting a big time acting career again.

    I wonder if he’s gonna get a “tear drop” tat just like the big prisoners in real prisons?

    I think he just wanted to be a headline, and as it turned out he got his wish. :D:D

    Just like the kneeling NFL players. They are not in the top 1%, they are in the top .001%

    By now we all know what he got for his troubles. 150 days in county jail, pay restitution of $120,000 to the city of Chicago, plus a fine of &25000 and probation.

    And…..because of his outbursts of “I’m not suicidal”, he now has to go for psychiatric evaluation.
    Funny thing, I would have thought he would have done that before his trial. There’s obviously something Very wrong with the dude.
    Heck, I’m not a therapist and I can name at least 3 things that’s wrong with him.

    I’m kinda waiting for the term “Perjury” to change to “Jussie”.

    30 Days for Jussying yourself to the court !! or maybe…….Thou shalt not Jussie.

    He was lying about Trump encouraging anti-black/anti-gay behaviour. The guy coughed up his own cash to pay people to beat him up, just for effect. You do have to admire the dedication. Maybe they beat his brains in.

    Thing is, he could have hired 2 white druggies to do the job for a few bucks compared to the few thousand he handed 2 black guys.
    It would have been a teenie bit more believable.

    And they were from Nigeria, no less...wearing MAGA hats (Make Algeria Grow Apricots.)

    I wonder who Jessie would really be more at risk being his carefree self around: white guys or black guys.

    Not sure if it was true or not, I read a long time ago he was also colluding with the VP and a couple others to incite anti Trump and anti white unrest. The article mentioned that they all had been in telephone contact prior to his act, but that ceased after he was arrested. I think it was true ! He simply was trying to be a rising star in the hatred already being spewed. He is sick and needs help

    I don't think he's sick; I think he's an entitled little twit whose plan for "fame" backfired. Boo hoo.
