I've been in the Northeast all my life, not just staying in NYC, and I can honestly say I've never once come across a white supremecist and there's no reason I wouldn't have the same experience in the midwest. It's more of a Southern thing and even then they are a minority. I feel like WS boogeymen are the scapegoats for everything these days
Disgusting: Kim Foxx Defenders Smear Chicago Cops as 'Blue Klux Klan,' Racists
U.S. Rep. Bobby Rush, activist Ja’Mal Green, [Jesse] Jackson and a group of other Foxx supporters blamed the city’s Fraternal Order of Police for a Monday confrontation over the Smollett case that displayed some of the city’s racial and political divisions. “The FOP is the sworn enemy of black people, the sworn enemy of black people,” said Rush, who drew criticism in the city’s mayoral election when he suggested supporters of Mayor-elect Lori Lightfoot would have the blood of African-American youth killed by the police on their hands. “The FOP has always taken the position that black people can be shot down in the street by members of the Chicago Police Department, and suffer no consequences,” Rush said, as an aide approached Foxx and the state’s attorney stepped out of television cameras’ view. “Let’s be clear: Kim Foxx, her battle, is with the FOP and all of their cohorts.”
Why are they spinning this hard for some B list actor? I'm going to keep saying it: There's something much bigger behind this fake hate crime.
They're calling this dude "Blue Klux Klan" and racist:

Argh I stated as much many (ignored as my heavy-on-logic posts often are) posts ago!!
My first thought when I heard of this nightmare was why the HELL would ANYone in power stick neck out for this not-that famous (I have never heard of him til this) guy?! He's not Beyonce famous, not even Kardashian (ew blech) famous. WTH!! Makes no sense!

I've been saying it for some time, as well. Got a lot of flack for it, but I'm standing by it. Just as you said, he wasn't that famous (only now since this stupid stunt), plus I also add in how incensed he got that no one paid attention to him with his fake crayon drawing threat letter. I can't really put it into words at this time, but something isn't jiving about that. It's not normal.
FBI Agents Reportedly RAID Jussie Smollett’s Home, Charge Him With 5 New Felony Counts – Could Face Up To 10 LIFE SENTENCES In Federal Prison
Early Monday morning, a group of 10 elite FBI special agents fully decked out in an assortment of tactical gear reportedly raided the luxurious home of former Empire actor Jussie Smollett.
"Fast forward to 2019 Chicago. The State’s Attorney’s Office (SAO) is an international laughingstock, as politicians, comedians, scholars, legal pundits and regular ol’ citizens alike blast its handling of the case against Jussie Smollett. The criticism is pointed squarely at Kim Foxx, the first African American female elected to fill the prestigious role of Cook County State’s Attorney.
In the wake of said criticism, Ms. Foxx speaks at a Rainbow PUSH coalition meeting and states she cannot run an office “driven by anger and public sentiment.” She says “the goal posts change” when an African-American takes the position of head prosecutor, seemingly calling the critique of the SAO’s handling of the Smollett case racially-based and derogatory toward her people."

Yeah she's pretty bad,
i.e. I fully expect Chicago to elect her as mayor eventually.
