Agreed.
From the article for those knuckleheads in our midsts.
"We all watched in open-mouthed horror as illegitimate and irresponsible news outlets like CNN fire hosed the predominantly black, working class city of Ferguson, Missouri, with the “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot!” hoax. What demagogues like Don Lemon and Chris Cuomo would have done with footage of two Trump supporters assaulting a gay, black man is the stuff of nightmares.
And let’s not forget that Smollett is currently standing by his ridiculous story, which means he is hanging two innocent black men out to dry. Obviously they are not innocent of conspiring to fabricate a hate hoax, but they are innocent of a hate-driven assault, which is a much more serious crime. "
