  1. More conspiracy theories Frankster? 🧐
  2. Yep. I'm calling either mistrial or hung jury or not guilty. Same here. Got a chuckle out the defense attorney's categorization of Diddy's relationships. Exactly. There is no such thing as a one man criminal enterprise. The whole case is a money grab. A whole lot of mouths got fed over 7 weeks. Not to mention the *work* that went into building the case. Bingo. I believe the bad taste Jack Johnson left in white folk's psyche has been passed down for generations.🤣 In the boxing ring, Jack Johnson beat the great white hopes so convincingly that one of his victories resulted in a race riot. Doubling down on his work in the ring, Jack Johnson flaunted his success in the faces with a gold-toothed smile to match.🤣 The Jack Johnson Effect is the flak Black celebrities, entertainers and athletes have been up against for decades But, it goes back further. White folks have always been intimidated by big Black men. Add anything else to the mix i.e. money fame, talent, looks, personality, charm, charisma, etc., and that is a white man's burden. Diddy is the personification of a white man's fears. A rich Black man running around having wild s8x with everybody. Dangerous.😎
  3. Well, already complications are arising in the Diddy jury room. After only 2 hours the jury sent the judge a note complaining about one if the juror's stance on the instructions. I smell a mistrial. I suspect all of the jurors had their minds made up before they even started deliberating. It's been reported that all 12 jurors are college graduates, and I can just imagine the level of the debate going on. I was amused that The Defense at one point in its closing arguments referred to this case as a great love story rather than a criminel offense. I agree that its not about racketeering. DIddy was not a street pimp procuring women. He is a noveau riche millionaire record mogul drunk with power, a sadistic bi-sexual chump bored with missionary style sex. The white powers-that-be never broke Jack Johnson, according to my father who worked around him back in the day Johnson capitalized off of the white frustration with him and ended up laughing about their failed attempts to humble him, living high on the hog on the south side of Chicago, married to his white wife, and held in great esteem by his people. He was killed in an accident, while driving one if his luxury cars.
  4. The real question is how much more time are you all going to spend trying to get him to see the subject differently. 😁 There's a reason for using a clock during a debate. 🤣😎
  5. Note the use of the words "perceived to share" and "the idea that people can be divided" Obviously the "idea" of race exists. The point is that just that and idea without basis in science. As a result, it is subject to human whim.
