    • UlyssesGaming why wouldn’t u want the death penalty for people that go around randomly attacking other people? If this story is true then they definitely need the death penalty. But I can see why you sympathize since you’re a racist trumptard yourself.

    • I hang around that area you’ll rarely see that. There’s cameras everywhere in that location they need to release the tape. 2am when the temp was -10 that night. Something’s not adding up

  1. This story sounds weird. Something was added to this story. I hope the guy is able to tell what really happened

    • Right, it’s just bizarre because, yeah Empire is a popular show and Jussie is moderately famous but there are by far other more famous openly gay black actors, why is he the one being stalked and how do racist homophobic know about Empire? Why are they so specific in saying MAGA. That slogan is copied from the 80s when Regan was running for president, so I’m not sure what all hoopla is about with that slogan.

      It’s awful that this happened but at the same time nothing adds up. It’s like they’re trying to start a race war but are attacking homosexuals as well. It’s all so random and bizarre is all I’m saying.

    • It’s was -10° with a wind chill of -21 at 2am. And on a Subway something’s really not adding up. As a male I never walk alone 2am in Chicago, you gotta be stupid

  2. WTG Ron .In 🇺🇸💪🏻✨🙏🏼, There is NO ROOM for Hatred Or Attacking Anyone for Their Apperance or Style of Living. Those that attack Others are usually Repressing Their Sexual alternate Cravings and Own Self Hatred

  3. They need to look for two Klansmen with frostbite. I’m sure that the cameras recorded them.

  4. So it all worked out in the end. Jussie Smollett walks away from a MAGA lynching with a tiny scratch and no witnesses, evidence or suspects and the left get their racist white devil.

    Couldn’t have gone better.

  5. *IM SORRY BUT I THINK THE STORY IS PURE B.S PERSONALLY WITH AN AGENDA AND IM HOMOSEXUAL PEOPLE RARELY FEEL SORRY FOR ANYONE BUT OTHERS LIKE THEM AND WOMEN THEY REALLY DON’T GIVE A SHH ABOUT EQUIVALENT TERMS IN SOCIETY AT ALL*

  7. We shall remember this as the days TMZ became buzzfeed. BTW let’s all meetup for an empire watch partycross burning like usual.

  8. Reading the comments, I’m happy to see that no one jumps into conclusions without evidence. This story is fishy.

  9. I think this takes the cake for the most ridiculous case of fake news I’ve ever seen. What are the chances a bunch of white dudes in Chicago wearing Trump hats were walking around at 2am looking for gay celebrities to beat up. lmao 😂😂😂😂😂
