IL - Gay black actor beaten, bleached, attackers shout "This is MAGA country!"

Hes referring to an email scam where someone claiming to be a Nigerian prince will give you a million dollars if you give him your social security number.

Ofc, I know what Nigerian email scam is what does Nigerian email scams got to do with this story? what scam is the Nigerians perpetuating? I hope people like him don't go around bringing up Nigerian email scams everytime a Nigerian topic is mentioned in this forum. I understand stereotyping and all but there has to be a limit to everything.
 
I was replying to your question about Nigerian scams.

I asked "what scams are the Nigerians involved in this time around?" and your answer is Nigerian email scams? I really don't know what else to say if you didn't see anything wrong with that reply to my question.

The reason there's nothing wrong with that reply is that it's obviously what was intended in the post that you replied to when you asked that question. Since you know about Nigerian scams, I'm not sure why you replied to SS that way.

Of course the other scam that some Nigerians are involved in this time around is the one that this whole thread is talking about, which was what obviously prompted SS's post that troubled you.

Spit is out SM, I want to know which scam it is. I thought it was the American Jesse Smollett that was the one lying about people attacking him and pouring bleach on him. So in your next reply, please be specific on the scam cos even though it seems obvious to you and everyone else, I still do not see it.

Could you please re-type that in English, and I'll try to help you understand whatever it is that you still don't?

What a weasel you turned out to be. You can't answer the question because you don't have it, so u use the excuse that you cannot comprehend my English to weasel out of it. I bet your next excuse would be that my Nigerian accent is too thick for u to understand. :tears:

What is the question?

I'll try to answer it if I can.

Nigerian Princes and Russian Bots are the internet boogie men of our time. :)
 
My guess:

Smollet wanted to be "the middle" in a queeer sandwich with these two.

They kicked his ass and told him to get lost.

The rest was a pure fabrication on Smollet's part.

Lol. That specific hypothesis had not occured to me.

As the Police released them, it would appear that they did not confess to any crime like beating him. Perhaps they had administered a home bleaching procedure to him, and the results were somewhat blotchy. Thus he needed to come up with a cover story for his splotchy skin.
 
Uh huh...

This has the stink all over it. If the story is real, I'd bet money I don't have that the perpetrators are hard-left.

Cue shrieks for "gun control" in 4... 3...

I knew this thread was going to go really south as soon as the media said Nigeria. So what scam are the Nigerians involved in this time around?
They appeared to be involved with faking the "hate crime", that is now being denied.
 
Personal distaste aside, it could be a cultural response.

IIRC the sentence for engaging in homosexual acts in Nigeria is death.

This is not really true, we have gay clubs, openly gay people and celebrities running around and none of them are facing the death penalty. Culturally, homosexual activity is frowned upon by the majority of Nigerians but as far as I know, nobody has been killed just for being gay in Nigeria.

So I made a few calls to my friends back in Nigeria just to make sure I am not out of touch/date before pressing the send button on this post and none of the people I called can confirm that they have heard of any death sentences carried out due to homosexuality. One person said they have read of someone going to jail for sodomy but he doesn't know which state it happened in. I also did a google search and found two examples in Northern states(yup, we sorta have our own version of state rights) where they have sharia. The claim is that the sexual actual was not voluntary i.e. **** rape but it still didn't say if they carried out the death penality just that they were sentenced. Lastly, I can tell by the names that the 2 guys in question are from the western part of Nigeria which is typically christian and not the places you will see sharia law.

Btw, quite a few Nigerians use this myth to gain asylum in the US. They say to the US govt that the Nigerian govt threatened to kill them for their sexuality and the US foolishly give them a green card even though they could just move to a different state without sharia law and be just fine.

It's frowned upon, to use your own words, and can subject you to capital punishment, if caught in a Islamic Sharia law state.

Close enough AFAIC, to possibly trigger a violent rejection of a homosexual advance.

To be fair, an unwanted h0mo sexual advance to most straight men would trigger a violent reaction, I doubt them being of Nigerian decent has anything to do with it. At least violent enough to get a small cut under their eye. But then again, does anyone really believe he was really attacked? my guess is that he faked the whole thing for attention. I think he cut himself, poured bleach on himself and put the noose on himself all for attention.
