'It Pissed Everybody Off:' Chicago Police Sounds Off On Smollett's Hoax
https://media.townhall.com/townhall/reu/ha/2017/74/65502399-8012-4cc6-ad5d-0facb03ad64d.jpg
Chicago Police revealed Thursday morning that "Empire" actor Jussie Smollett staged a hate crime attack against himself because he was "dissatisfied" with his salary. The actor was adamant that it was two MAGA-hat wearing President Trump supporters who attacked him, while hurling homophobic and racial slurs at him. Smollett was taken into custody this morning once authorities gathered enough evidence to charge him with filing a false report.
Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson spoke for his department at Thursday's press conference when he said he was "offended by what's happened" in his city. Smollett, he said, was treated as a victim until they saw the evidence to discover the actor gave two Nigerian men a $3,500 check to stage an attack on him. Johnson said the department gave Smollett the “benefit of the doubt” until the 47th hour of the 48 hours they could hold the two suspects, at which point they confessed their role in the hoax.

He was dissatisfied with his salary! Is this how you get a raise?
Then what's up with buying Red Hats if it's about your salary? Liar liar pants on fire!

Disappointed in this Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson. He had a chance to do right and send the message down the ranks the days of corruption are over. Now the question is who paid him off? Lee Daniels, Kamala Harris, Cory Booker, the Obamas? Sad day for Chicago.

So much for the outrage of Kamila Harris and Cory Booker and their bill before congress regarding lynching, seems to me like they might have been more involved in this than meets the eye.

Can someone make a meme of the check?
GodsAngell ago
Here's a good MEME on this subject (but not the check):

I wonder how the Chicago Police feel about inviting the UN Peacekeepers in to keep order.

Finally a FF caught in the act. Hopefully they will get to the instigators of them.

Nope, @TheRealIndianaJoe I'm sure Barry Obama is protected by the Deep State

Wonder if the two MAGA Nigerians cashed the check before the deed was done?
Stonenchizel ago
@Zadim Most likely it was cashed the day he wrote the check
Zadim ago
That would seem logical, but two Nigerians posing as MAGA white guys in Chicago at 2 AM doesn't fit the logical category.

Apparently they're personal trainers and were going to bill him for training sessions. Do they think 3,500 is the kind of money you need to launder in a business and pay taxes on?

@CulturalImperiaalit Just like Q always says : " THESE PEOPLE ARE STUPID!

My fellow jew and former Chicago mayor Jerry Springer paid a prostitute with a check.

Whatttt? A police officer talking like this? Oy Vey!

Black police superintendent.
B-------D ago
Really? Wow! That is actually really shocking! If black men wake up to what the fuck is going on then the good guys win in an instant. Hell, if even a few of them do we win. Its so funny that the result of extremely racist message boards will be the awakening of black men... It kinda makes sense. As they come here they will see people calling them out for all sorts of shit. They will naturally want to PROVE THOSE PEOPLE WRONG both in word and deed so as to make those evil racists eat crow... Would be funny if this was the plan of the "Ray-Cists"... Its my plan. Same with the jews.... Same fucking plan.
