Jussie didn’t have bodyguards tho?!
I bet he will after this attack
Still shouldn’t have happened
Wow People Can’t Even Be Themselves 😑😑😑
Rainbow FleXxx but Don lemon head said that the black community was homaphobic
Never could.
Mike Carter
It is.
*IS PRESIDENT TRUMP TO BLAME FOR THIS?*
Yes
PITTSBURGH GIRL lisa ROXXI sandoval Trump is the best President. TRUMP2020
PITTSBURGH GIRL lisa ROXXI sandoval B. E an Er Illegal alien.
The inbred supporters that did it are. He sure didn’t help educate his idiotic racist backwards base though did he?
PITTSBURGH GIRL lisa ROXXI sandoval f. A gg. Ot n. I gg ers deserve to get beat
This is crazy where was his bodyguard
Use all that money you got young man ..bullies love the bully but they don’t like to get bullied.
In my city there is cameras on almost every corner… you can do the crime and they going to follow you all the way back to your front door.
He’s been able to roam free.
+FLOWER .. and he should be able to continue to.. he got the money.. use it. I hope they get caught and he hit them in the pockets.. I know I shouldn’t say break the law but I’m quite sure there is somebody that could use the money to give them their just desserts.
They film in Chicago all the time, he is probably comfortable going out by himself…then this happens 🤷
And some how no one has film I smell some BS
like someone said above,if they filmed it you wouldve said, “why they filming instead of helping,ugh humanity nowadays 🙄”
And the attackers took the time to bring along a jug of bleach and a noose????
Good thing they yelled out “Maga” because we wouldn’t have known to blame Donald Trump for this!!!
STOP BELIEVING EVERYTHING YOU HEAR!!!
Well if it just happened, the police are not going to release everything just yet. They could very well have film
+Harvey Martin death threats were recently mailed to the studio, perhaps these guys stalked him? Otherwise you’re saying after he was beat up he dragged himself to a hardware store at 2 am (with broken ribs mind you) bought a rope and bleach then doused himself and tied a noose around his neck. Yeah that makes total sense
I see and smell bullshit from many things like our president and his wall
Dam Empire just got real😕
Too early
This is so wrong. No one help him.
+?everything what’s odd about people not helping someone that is American we just get our phones out or ignore it
LMAOOOOO
Get your phones out kids. Someone else deal with this.
+?everything did you not watch the video? it said they sent a threatening letter to him earlier before the attack
victoria brown f s g n. I gg. Er
😮 omg praying for you Jesse! You are great that’s why they hate you! Peace and ❤️
Who is they though? MAGA doesn’t know who the fxxk this guy is. 😂
La to the Bay these Gram crackers don’t care about black gays
Don’t worry everyone. Lucious will look into this matter
DBJ: Lol! Would you stop! This is a serious matter!
This is not funny… Please think before you write
+Diana Ngotho that was funny. and id rather have cookie do something..
Diana Ngotho girl shut up. I didn’t have the man beat up
WHATEVER!!!
Did Blac Chyna go Super Saiyan 3 on Kid Buu or did she need a hoe ritual to become Super Thot God?!
She fused with Caitlyn Jenner
I’m so sick of her
I don’t understand why he doesn’t have security get well soon jussie that’s so messed up
Why should he have it
Willing to pay hundreds of dollars per hour to have them follow you around for protection? Some people, celeb or not don’t got it like that. Security guards or not, that’s no excuse for him to be beaten up like that. Stop blaming the victim. 😐
COWARDS as usual.
Exactly
Smh sick. Let’s see if the LGBT Trump supporters will speak on this. They like to fight everything else full force so the better keep that same spirit
Richard Alvarez do you need proof of it though LoL republicans
+Margaret Gust people like you said the same thing when that whacked out Trump supporter was mailing bombs to prominent democrats. You all called it a hoax even your beloved Fox News and guess what, it turned out to be exactly what it appeared to be. Another deranged Trump nut wanting to hurt people. But I bet you probably still think that was a hoax.
Tony Brown lmao black people hold this L
Tony Brown n. I gg. Ers
How about we actually let the police investigate this first.
Omg no!!!!!!!! Prayers!!!!!!!😢😢😢😢💔💔💔💔
They wore maga caps with ski masks??? Something is off about this story but I hope he gets better.
Who the hell said anything about MAGA caps??? Stop making shyt up.
You can put a hat over a ski mask even though thats not was said
They yelled maga dumbass lol
Could be an identity decoy. He seems to be targeted, by someone, they could be throwing off their real identity
But no one said they were wearing “MAGA Hats” though…..they yelled “maga country” when fleeing. Pay attention this is how fake news starts
Prayers to Jussie Smollett, and protect him and his family.
Wait…
Kid Buu……? He so we’re not going to act like this dude out here with a Dragon Ball Z name?
Mario Drake
Isn’t that copyright infringement, using Kid Buu.
Most subways stores have camera’s. So look for that to leek. Chicago’s got cameras everywhere. Wait and see before saying hoax guys.
I am predicting this is another bogus story to stir up racial tension and hate against the President and people of this country. I mean come on how many cliches can happen in one attack, noose,bleach,maga hats, masks and a letter sent with cut out letters threatening him days before? If it was a legit attack at all and not just Hollywood theatrics with hired actors, I mean who carries all that crap around to attack someone, talk about bringing attention to yourself
Yea it’s so far fetched that maga supporters will do anything violent lol.
+Queen Tron It was one nutty guy, not MAGA “supporters” and the bombs were fake.Liberal Democrats actually shot and almost killed several members of Congress playing baseball, so.
Yeah, who knew people are capable of beating someone and hanging them based on their color? That’s never happened before, all those craziest died a looonnngg time agoo
shelliemarie Lmfao lies per usual. there have been multiple incidents involving maga assholes. Everyone can see magas are scared, weak, racist, narcissistic, stagnant, idiots who can’t handle poc, lgbt, or being educated. They’re the true snowflakes. and when your guy finally sells you out and runs off with the money TRUST you will be finally crushed. gtfo with your compartmentalized cognitive dissidence.
I’m going to wait for the facts on this, two white men just happened to target him? If I’m wrong I’m sorry but this story is fishy. Smells like another Covington rush
Likely fake news. I wouldn’t necessarily even believe it if it was filmed since he’s an actor.
Right! He’s an actor with no type of security
an bo but he is hospitalized. They pour bleach on him u trump dickrider
