Apparently he was going against the grain after Trayvon was shot down - saying that he was not required to react a certain way to the news just because he's Black. He felt as if no one should jump to Trayvon's "defense" just because he was Black.

Quote"I won't react to something just because I'm supposed to, because I'm an African-American. That argument doesn't make any sense to me. So we want to advance as a society and a culture, but, say, if something happens to an African-American, we immediately come to his defense? Yet you want to talk about how far we've progressed as a society? Well, then don't jump to somebody's defense just because they're African-American."

The gorls are digging in a bit into his mess because of people going after Gayle.

QuoteWhen I ran into Bryant before the Los Angeles Lakers' game against the Phoenix Suns Sunday night, he said that the quote in question does not reflect his thoughts on the Martin case specifically, but in a general sense.

?

Well he's right

it is a bit much but...if he felt that no one deserves "defense" simply cuz they were/are Black...I'm done tugging at Gayle's lopsided wig about this mess on him.

sffsffsfsff

cuz I'm def not a basketball fan and couldn't  list one of his stats if someone quizzed me  :omf:

fhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh  it IS a bit...... ironic


reekz

No he was basically saying to not jump to conclusions because he is black. Wasn't enough information to go by at the time he said this.

He was entitled to feel that way....but it's just a bit of a kii because so many Black people, many of whom couldn't tell you jack squat about his career highlights and stats, are coming to his defense after his death solely because he's a Black man who was famous.

I damn sure was delicately twirling my fingers thru Gayle's wig a bit after that interview she did. But why tho? What he said does have some reason and logic to it. Maybe I should apply it to him as well and just mind my business on this rape question mess. Let Gayle ask her questions as she sees fit, and such.

Not half of Bsource catching a stray wtf man  :plzstop:
