Royalan, number one supporter of the Jessie Smollett racist attack thread which banned countless pages of sane posters makes me laugh no matter what he says nowadays. He's king gay retard.*
*no offense.

I wasn't following era back then, but I'm sure it was crazy when the truth came out about that. Were any of the bans reversed after the fact? I feel like no

No. In fact, they completely flipped the script and banned the posters who called out the overzealous jussie supporters on their bullshit. something like "how DARE you ridicule us for taking Jussie's fucking retarded fairytale in good faith!" was the general sentiment

The person who quoted these posts was banned

Vonnegut's posts are almost aggressively ignorant, so I'll try to take it from the top.

Chicago has its share of both white people and Trump supporters, who are capable of committing premeditated acts of violence at late hours when witnesses are rare.

Human beings often go outside in cold weather. Jackets and other warm garments make it possible to do so. It is also possible to carry an un-frozen bottle of bleach in freezing temperatures, just like I could walk outside two days ago when it was -20 and drink a bottle of water.

Walking away is how virtually all assailants leave the scene of an attack. Driving away is the other option.

They presumably recognized him because he is a celebrity and public figure and his likeness is easily ascertainable from a quick Google search. They happened to be there at 2am because they (1) wanted to attack him and (2) wanted to do so at night when there are few witnesses. So they wait outside his residence until he either leaves or returns from elsewhere.

Video evidence of crime is rare.

Celebrity residences are often the subject of rampant hearsay and rumor-mongering. When I lived in Chicago people frequently discussed where famous people lived.

Any reasonable, rationale person would not be skeptical that he was, in fact, attacked.

Take two because you're bringing the stupid in heavy:

Perpetrators of premeditated crime often plan their actions to minimize witnesses / chances of being seen or caught. Committing crime late in the evening when witnesses are scarce is one such time-honored method. Here, his assailants likely arrived at some point in the night and simply waited for him to leave or return from elsewhere. It is possible and in fact very likely that they staked his resident out for a night or two prior to the incident. Staking out is common even among petty thieves.

Again, celebrity residences in big cities are subject to rampant hearsay. People love to gossip about who lives where. And yes, it is possible to lie in wait to commit a crime even in cold weather, thanks to things like jackets, pants, gloves, etc.

Again, staking out is a common prelude to premeditated crime, even among, say, shoplifters.

The fact that I have to spell all of this out in response to your asinine "just asking questions" posts makes it all seem very complicated when it's actually just common fucking sense, even for:

But apparently not for you.

The retard who posted them is still on the site, unbanned.
