I heard he couldn’t make bail because his finances are all fucked up.

“The police aren’t obligated to keep anyone updated via press releases on a crime they’re actively investigating”

Then they should have said not a damn thing until ‘all their ducks were in a row’, it’s not rocket science. Thanks for proving my point that he was never treated like a victim at any time, save by false wording. If you don't get why that's problematic for future victims reporting attacks in Chicago then you aren't…

And I am not refuting the case unraveling. But I am questioning how this case was handled, which was like a circus. In part I know that’s due to the celebrity status that brought intense media coverage of the victim. But CPD put on a shitshow, with smiling teeth, pretending that Smollett was not a suspect, when…

I’m saying the way they handled this case is a harbinger for cases far less plagued with issues. It makes my blood run cold. I’ve been on the receiving end of police harassment where guilt was implied. There's nothing commendable about the Chicago PD.

For what reason did the entire city need to hear leaked information that clearly was giving the illusion of doubtfulness? They are police, and I expect them to handle their shit professionally, not cave to ‘the people’. Leaks happen for only two reasons. One is intended, the other is you do not have control of your…

The fact that Empire shoots in Chicago means they would have to block access to a ton of areas, possibly causing traffic issues, all of which would require the CPD’s assistance. I can see that (along with it being a mostly black cast being filmed in a historically segregated city) raising hackles of both officers and…

You are indeed salty.

I honestly wish the CPD had just stayed quiet 'til it all came to a head, because they were definitely playing cat & mouse with this situation. It leaves a very bad taste in my mouth, knowing that's it's the Chicago PD we are talking about here.

I’m not here for Chicago PD’s shit, even if it turns out he is guilty. After watching the evening news, they stated he is all but a hair’s breath from being arrested as the grand jury is already hearing the case. The CPD made it clear they have their case already made and have been gathering evidence towards that end…

Never say 'Never' 😉

Pure Spitefulness is all.

Misogynoir Is Real.

Black women on average, aren't trying to run away from or dilute their blackness when engaging in interracial relationships, and the problems children with white mothers seem to have (meshing well in the black community) don't seem to happen nearly as much.

But daddy was silent, and that's how we get these messes in the first place!

The worst is when they attempt to be black by proximity, code switching speech patterns.

Straight up this would be my dad (returning items). He strolled ‘round with 100s, but if you overcharged by 10 cent he wanted management in front of him yesterday.

😂 the XOjane was phenomenally bad, I still remember that 😂

Like I’ve said in the past, this is why they get met with resistance on the playground.

For Real.
