🙄😳😳😳

MAGA Racists are so rare and hard to find that African Americans Like Jussie and this guy invent them. SMH

Cant find a racist. Just make it up and blame whitey. Democrat's are odd folk

oh boy!

FakeNewsCNN omits key parts from the story FakeNewsCNN the EnemyOfThePeople

A fake crime by a Dem? Imagine my shock!

I hope he filed an insurance claim on that.

Right out of the jussie Smollett play book

JusticeForJuicy

the only crime here is his hairline

Well that’s a first...

I think he’s related to JussieSmollett

I guess racism have been already solved in the states, because it's at such low levels people have to fake it

Surprised you’re reporting it

This is still somehow Trump's fault - we'll find a way to blame him and his Deplorables!

CrimeInSports

Idiot

He also stole Michael Bolton's haircut. Shamefull.

And he'll receive no punishment just like Smollett..

We know now what we’re up against, it’s always good to know where you stand when it comes to RACISEM and SEXUAL ALLEGATIONS.

Is this supposed to be something new? We created a bunch of entitled people and this is what we got. Wake the public up to that. Do your job.

Funny. I hear way more about these stories than actual hate crimes.

CRIMINAL ON OR OFF FIELD!!

so how many 'fake' hate crimes does that make since 2016? i'm sure cnn is keeping count

Thugs

Trump Derangement Syndrome Case 1,000,001 & the CDC hasn't issued a warning yet?

Call Barry and Michael Obama they specialize in getting garbage like you off the hook.

Jesus...

Does he know Juicy Smollette?

Please don't put Kim Foxx in charge of this one. She botched the Jussie Smollett case.

Crazy! Must be another Democrat That’s gone over the edge ! You’re seeing a lot of them lose their Mines now

Shame on him.

Trump Derangement Syndrome

ok. now go cover the stories of white people doing illegal things for profit.

this is why Jussie should have been legally punished. He is giving others ideas. Now we're gonna doubt all these hate crimes.

JussieSmollett imitator.

CNN should have a new show hosted by Mr Smollet to review such stories ' Justice with Juicy ' tonight on CNN

He should seize the zeitgeist and start an NFL Franchise with Colin Kaepernick.

So let justice served them self, now he will pay for his consequences

Tell me again how white people are the problem...

When there is so little racism that you have to make your own.

Lol. He got busted in the middle of his Smolletting attempt.

So... he should be charged with a hate crime.

Nice bro

Encouraged by outlets like CNN!
