You really need to get caught up on this case. Two men that were extras on Jussie’s show are sitting in holding right now, about to be charged.

There is no video backing up his claims. Obviously, your mind is made up and shut tighter than Ft. Knox.

Apparently America isn't racist enough for the bigot-baiters who lament that no racial incidents of note have happened to them so they have to concoct one.

...Because black men are rarely falsely accused of crimes? How convenient of them to arrest two Nigerians. Let's make it "black Americans vs. foreign-born blacks" instead of the "blacks vs. Whites", which is the (one-sided) rivalry this country was founded on. As if some extras are going to RUIN THEIR CAREER by attacking a star of the show. C'mon son.

I'm sure that's just part of the racist conspiracy against black men.

ETA: Holy cow, I thought I was being facetious. The guy actually beat me to the punch to assert EXACTLY THAT. When it comes to mocking the left, sometimes you just can't out-parody the real thing.

Well, it looks like Jussie found his audience.

His "art"???? Is that what they're calling false accusations now? If the tables were turned there would be protests in the street.

Perhaps this case will prompt Congress to pass legislation regarding hate crime hoaxes, something with some teeth in it.

Ok, hang on. It's a heavily sarcastic account. And I know that because some of the people he has retweeted are handles that I know....who are heavily sarcastic. I understand exactly why it's hard to decipher that because some of these people are very good at it - so much so that even when I know some of the people ... in that group ... I guess you could call it ...even I have had to follow a trail to find that out.

It's almost like 4chan creating a false story, going on social media and talking about it like it's the God's given truth, and getting people to buy it, every bit of it. These types of people love to make others look like the morons that they are, but they get so into character, you're still sitting there wondering, sometimes...uh...this is fake right? It was last time, is it still fake?

If you ever needed proof as to why these guys do this, check some of the recent postings on here.

And here ladies and gentleman is the problem. Trump haters and the mainstream media (but I repeat myself) see through the lens of the Narrative. Facts come a very distant second.
