He actually repeated something alot of people say already in that black folks blindly following the Democratic party under some idea that "Democrats love us, Republicans hate us" is stupid. That's not caping for Kobe that's simple common sense. Removing Kobe from the situation we can't act like some folks don't get ostracized for not having what's supposed to be the universal black view point on certain things.

Your acting just like Stephen A. you are conflating two issues.. No one is saying he or anyone else doesn't have right to their own opinion.. on any kind of issue.. No matter how coonish that opinion is. The real issue is Tobe hating on Lebron,D-Wade & other blacks folks.. for standing up for Trayvon implying that ? only did because Trayvon was black.. Tobe also implied that that ? who standing up for Trayvon didnt have all the facts or didn't care enough to go out get all of the facts about the case.. The problem in that logic which Tobe can't seem to comprehend is the fact.. that maybe ? were riding for Trayvon.. for reasons more then him just being black.. Like the fact they could relate to walking somewhere & doing nothing wrong.. yet some bitchmade person feels some type of negative way towards you because your wearing a hoodie or because of how your walking or maybe that person just fees like you don't belong in their neighborhood.. Maybe ? supported Trayvon cause didn't like fact that grown ass could ? a teenager in cold blood and be out of jail that night.. or Maybe ? rode for Trayvon cause they didn't like the fact he was the victim yet from the moment.. That he was killed he was treated like a suspect who deserved to die.. But none of those things went through Tobe's mind.. He just assumed ? just supported Trayvon cause he was black.. and that was that.. And Tobe unlike rest of the black folks need to wait and get his "facts"... -
how this Rosenburg dude can get on urban radio and say the ? he said in this video and not be challenged is sick.
all that ? he said was ? . -

Miss me with that. Nobody says anything when ; the ? Community blindly vote democract ,when the latino community majority vote democract. when The majority of middle class America vote democract. or When women vote democract.
But noooo let'S get on black folks.
They all have one thing in common, the republican party shuns them , and talks down on them, while democracts Attempt to pander to their issues.
its wolf and foxx with both. but on the surface Level, how are you to Support something, that ? even pretend to support you?
But No let's get on The black folks. -

It's already been established Kobe used a ? example to try and illustrate his point. It's also been established that the quote is just a part of a larger interview. Notice the quote doesn't actually mention the Miami Heat, just the headline to the quote. No this ain't a defense of Kobe so don't even go that route. I just prefer to read the entire interview and see if anything else was said before or after the quote before launching a full on "Kobe's a ? " campaign. If the rest of the interview carries that same tone then he should be forced to apologize face to face to Trayvon Martin's family for using their son's death to illustrate a point it had no connection to and face any public shame that comes with it. I just know that anything can be used to manipulate an opinion. Hell I just saw someone pull this pic from Kobe's instagram last year after Zimmerman's trial in defense of him and this quote. Anything can be manipulated when not in full context.. -

He wasn't raised like me, he not from where I'm from, so I wouldn't expect him to understand what real brothas already know...smdh
More than one way to be a lost ? ...
black awareness about racism has nothing to do with region
black people world wide face (esp in Europe)
even Africans in their on country face racism and unequality
no excuses this ? is just wrong
Copper I hear you, but awareness alone is not enough, to expect a ? like KOBE, to relate to the strife and struggles of a real brotha (in any country). That’s like asking the ? to understand why racism is wrong. Yea, the ? is aware of racism, but they can’t relate to it because they don’t experience the negative effects of it.
So, it’s reasonable to understand why a ? like KOBE is lost. His whole perspective is out of whack because he came up in an environment that didn’t produce the types of harsh experiences that most BLACK MEN can relate too.
So, when a ? like KOBE see’s racism against minorities, he a cause and effect type ? , what they do to cause this result. Whereas you or I may see the ? for what it really is….
you dont have to have personal experience to empathize
Ive never been poor, never went to bed hungry but I dont blame the poor and hungry for being poor and hungry -
Nah, let me rephrase this for the modern times of 2014.
Is Stephen A. Smith really trying to tell black people that the Republican party of 2014 is the same Republican party of the mid 1960's?
Really?
The Republican party of 2014, that's been constantly attacking people's basic right to vote since 2011? The same Republican party that gutted the voting rights act in the supreme court last summer of 2013?
Really?
The Republican party of 2014 is still the party of civil rights?
All these former confederate, secession, southern states are now the land of liberals according to Stephen A. Smith?

But theres also the physical/verbal racism aka bigotry.
Which blacks every where face,
Kobe went throught it In the media 1st hand, 10 years ago.
They out here having mock lynches of Obama and he's not fully black.
But Kobe black ass can't relate ?
Billonaire oprah getting it 1st hand, Yet Kobe can't relate? Kobe is just a ? . The higher up you Go As a ? , the more racist ? gets.
Who get stop more , a ? in a nice car ,or a ? in a Hoopty?
Last time I checked, Trayvon Was shOt in a middle class neighborhood. They said He didn't belong There.
So Kobe upbringing ain't Got ? to do with anything. Balotelli is getting bannanas thrown. And he's born and raised in Italy.
Did I forget to mention, plays 4 them 2.
Floyd is rich as ? , but He understands reality, Kobe is a delusional as ? ,

Kobe is A naïve ? , who’s speak half-truths. If anything, blacks don’t support each other enough.
Kobe just wanted to ? on blacks. What Kobe did is like, solely bringing up black on black crime, and failing to acknowledge that white on white crime is 86% out of 250 + milli , do the math. if you wanna say something, say the whole thing, don’t say half the ? .
When other races’ support their own, it’s not a problem. When blacks do it, it’s a problem.
When Joe Lieberman was running for office, all the Jews supported him, nobody said ? .
When Christine Quinn ran for the primaries in NYC, all the ? supported her nobody said anything.
When Jeremy Linn was hot for 2weeks, and Asians who didn’t know a lick bout basketball, but supported him cause he was one of their own, nobody said nothing.
When Kobe was going through his ? case, for “? that damsel in distress” them krackers had his jail suit and cell ready, before the facts.
? came out in droves to support him. Kobe didn’t deny our support, he aint tell us to not support him, because we don’t have the facts. He gladly accepted our support.
The main reason he ? on Shaq was because, he felt shaq didn’t support him enough. He ain’t ask Shaq to wait for
the facts . -
The blind obstinacy in this thread is astounding

when it comes to black crime.....most likely no one else cares about facts...thats why so many black men are found guilty even when the facts support innocence.but black people should wait for the facts?and dont everyone else put race first before asking for facts? i have not seen one case where a black man is presumed innocent until proven guilty.....that for everyone else except black people...we are guilty an have to prove our innocence.
or is it some of yall got a little money an dont have to live in the real world
first off....black people need to stick together.
as far as destroying the master house....actually you can destroy his house with his tools as long as you learn to use his tools against him. the person who wont use the tools to even try is the house ? ..cuz ? done gave him a job an money...so what is does rich blacks do? seperate themselves because they feel excepted like the house ? .
the rest of what your saying is just stupid. an i dont feel like shredding it to pieces right now. -
Did somebody already say Coonbe Bryant? If so ignore this.

Just like Tiger. ? wanna act like he bigger than this whole petty race thang...........until his black ass get in muhfuckin trouble.

Well this is some RNS -
I still see crab in the bucket mentality

Kobe painted blk people as a monolith, a lynch mob who has no regard for the facts or tolerance for individuality in an attempt to articulate his own contempt with the way he felt blk people expected him to think, act because he was blk... smh lol
His comments were ignorant and hold no merit
The argument that blk people blindly support democrats is bs as well. True we tend to support democrats moreso than republicans but that is an issue of policy and how the republican party continues to use racially coded language to rally their supporters ...the voter id laws arent helping either. Nothing blind about that. But I guess for the kobe's, stephen a.'s of the world it would be easier for them to believe that they are the most enlightened ? in the room when they talk that post race ? . Sure it makes it easier for them to look in the mirror everyday
