Smollett jumped the shark.

I think that the rising liberal message of "everyone who is white and likes Trump is a racist" just peaked with Smollett's arrest.  It would be one thing if they just arrested him.  But the authorities didn't let it rest there.  Instead, they flayed him open in the court of public opinion as the Chicago Police head said that Smollett used ugly symbols of racism in order to further his own career.


The normal weasel words "alleged" and "suspected" were completely absent from the police chief's rant.  They could have put a white guy up there wagging his finger at Smollett but instead the chief himself did the deed with emphasis on his own membership of the local black community.  The chief also acknowledged that racial tensions have been running high nationally without trying to fan those flames. 


The Chief led off with, "This announcement today recognizes that Empire actor Jussie Smollett took advantage of the pain and anger of racism to promote his career.".  While I am not siding with Smollett, the chief really should have been more careful with his words.  We all know Smollett is guilty as sin but that does not allow anyone to do away with the process, and the process requires the assessment of guilt to be done by the courts, not some police chief.  The fact that the chief put the process aside in order to grand stand on Smollett's arrest tells me that he knows that this fake racism crap has gone too far.  But he also opened up an attack vector for Smollett's lawyer who now might be able to claim that the police had prejudged his guilt.  It's not a big attack surface and I don't think it will prove to be a vulnerability but the chief knows better than to do it yet still he did it because he wanted to make a broader statement about fake racism.


Yes, fake racism.  Before Trump got elected there were no racial tensions at the national level.  Yes waaaaay too many blacks were gunned down by corrupt white and black cops during the Bush 2 and Obama presidencies.  It was an epidemic.  But the race card really only got popularized when the liberal propaganda machine went into high gear after Trump got elected even though Trump has never done anything that I know of that is racially charged.  In fact, he told the truth during his campaign that the dems promise them stuff but it never shows up.  His "what have you got to lose" message played well because it was true.  Where were these people when racism was happening during Bush2 and Obama?? AFAIKT, police shooting of unarmed blacks is way down in numbers since Trump came to office.


Smollett has just made himself the posterchild for rabid insane liberalism as well as the false flag tactics they love to use.  Getting outed like that by another black authority figure who asked "why does a black man do this kind of thing" is going to make the herd question all future fake "white racist man bad" propaganda.  Whites don't hate blacks.  Conservatives don't hate blacks (or anyone else).  Recognize strengths and weaknesses? Yeah.  Conservatives don't ignore the evidence nor are they afraid to speak it.  But it is the liberal propaganda machine spreading lies and hate, not white conservatives.


By the way, speaking of conservatives who aren't afraid to speak up, here is a recent interview with Lara Logan as she explains the leftist-run lame stream media.
