All those that came to his defense looks like fools! This is why we say “let’s wait for the whole story to come out.” Having all the facts matters.

“Allegedly”

Such a whimpy lightweight bum

Boiled-down:

The whole story doesn’t make sense he is obviously faking everything.

Disgusted by this guy. Me, Me, Me. He has set back genuine hate crime reporting for decades.

What to know is the right will use this one faked crime to excuse the thousands of other confirmed cases.

He’s guilty. All you need to know lol

Wsj loves to write more articles about 1 fake hate crime than the 10,000 real ones. Wonder why it sure is a puzzler

Nobody wants to know....

If he just admitted it from the start, it would have already blown over. Taking accountability is almost always going to be the better route.
