Now, with the truth finally out there, here's what I would like to say to Jussie:
As a white, Christian, Heterosexual Male Trump Supporter that you despise with your black heart & soul Mr. Smollett...I forgive you.
Because of the very way in which I was raised that fills you with so much hate & bigotry, I am obligated according to the tenets of my faith to forgive you and hope you can find a sense of peace in your life. Might I suggest you get away from the negative influences in your life, head down South, & meet & get to know some Southern white folks. You might discover, that we are much better to hang out with than you've been told. Give it a try
