Putting a GUILTY Black man in prison after a solid trial with evidence is now racist. This is what they want.

Juicy Small Lay tried to spark a race war. That alone should get him a life sentence.

Sounds like an accomplice after the fact. 150 days for you too.

“I am not here to debate you on his innocence,” Henson wrote, “but we can agree that the punishment does not fit the crime.”

I agree, sort of, He should have been Sentenced to the same amount of time a Person Convicted of this FAKE Hate Crime would have got, how about 5-10 Years instead

Of course! They are now SO used to not even being stopped when looting a store or getting out on their own recognizance with no bail for even violent crimes, HOW? could 150 days in jail for Sweet Jussie be nothing but racist?

Emmett Till would beg to disagree if he were available for comment.

Their attitude now (which is pervasive) is that 400 years = a totally free pass.

I am not familiar with this lynching, but I am willing to put every penny I have that the lynching of a human being is a worse penalty than Smollett’s meager 4 month jail sentence. Since he has been known to visit bathhouses from time, how different will a jailhouse encounter be? And who cares?

Actually I agree with her that the punishment doesn’t fit the crime.

He should’ve gotten at least 1 year.

Well heck yeah it’s racis’. White self centered actor shoots and kills cinematographer and hasn’t seen the inside of the Santa Fe jail yet so yeah, obvious racism at work here. Especially in chicongo.

It's only 75 days if he behaves himself, and is the same effective sentence that white woman Lori Loughlin got for hoaxing college admissions for her daughter. And Loughlin spent her time in federal prison, not county jail.

Agreed. This is all on Jessie. Please tell me how this is an Emmet moment. Poor Emmet did nothing wrong other than being black in the southern Jim Crow period. Clearly not our best showing of human rights. Jessie however was given due process, and convicted by his peers as stated in the constitution.
