Smollet Charges Dropped

[Amarok]

Indeed apparently you aren't permitted to find one case more convincing then the other and the only factor to take into consideration is "political bias"

Hm, not at all what I was suggesting. But ok; if that disingenuous representation helps you feel like you’re right, more power to you.

Well the news media has not done a good job of pointing out that he forfeited his bail and plead. It is not true that he was not punished. The "dropped charges" were after the fact. He has to do community service and his charges only get dropped if he refrains from any criminal activity for a period. If he commits another crime within the stated period, the charges could be brought back. 

That is a common punishment for first time offenders. 

If we want to argue was that appropriate or not, that would be a different subject and a better one to argue. I think he got off easy.

This is what everyone in this thread is avoiding, acting as if Smollett was completely exonerated and found to be innocent of false claims made by the CPD. This is certainly NOT the case.

Well if it wasn't you certainly didn't a poor job expressing your real intent . So no misrepresentation  just your poor communication here, Thus my feelings don't factor into this .
