Jussie Smollett found guilty of five felony charges in staging hate crime against himself…

I wonder what this will mean in terms of how he’s sentenced. No question it was a really stupid thing to do, considering that actual hate crimes still occur.

Well, it was stupid. That there's no arguing with. But I have to wonder what's happening inside a man already craving the attention of stage lights and still compelled to play the victim front and center for the world. That typically speaks to an imbalance somewhere in the mind.

That doesn't excuse his actions or protect him from penalty, but understanding him and helping him understand himself might go a long way in making sure this happens less frequently in the future.
