[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Somehow, I have not been able to understand the Black experience in this country because I am not Black and I am an immigrant. I have observed though that it dampens the criticism that Black community extends to a Black celebrity over any wrong doing because how the entire race will be percieved by non-Blacks and because they feel that the world wants to bring down the Black man. I first saw it with OJ Simpson, then Cosby, now Kobe. This cannot be healthy. .[/quote] If Kobe were a white guy and died the way he did, his rape case would’ve been dismissed by everyone and it would’ve not even been mentioned. That’s how it is in America. If you’re black and you do one thing, even if you’re not convicted, you die guilty as a bad person, no matter what. White people will claim it has nothing to do with race, when it reality it has everything to do with race. [/quote] It is being dismissed by 99% of the human race because he didn't rape anyone. Of course there are hateful people, trolls, SJW types, etc, who will try to get some attention out of it and make themselves feel good. [/quote] Pretty much. Bored beckys who have nothing else going in their life and spend their free time hating on a dead man while totally being ok with creeps like Harvey Weinstein and Stephen Collins (7th heaven dad who molested several girls up until 1995) who are roaming the world free. For those men, it’s “just a mistake” but for Kobe, he should go down as a rapist based even though it’s unconvicted. [/quote] Show me one person who thinks Harvey Weinstein or Stephen Collins should go free. Just one. [/quote] They ARE free. That’s the issue. Stephen Collins literally went on ABC in an interview and that was the end of it. 7th heaven still airs currently. Meanwhile, Cosby is locked up and they have taken Cosby off syndication. That tells you a lot. If you think race isn’t a factor, you’re being obtusely ignorant. [/quote] I think you've lost the plot a bit here. Kobe also was walking around free. I wholeheartedly agree that black men are always held to a higher standard than white men. But to state that Weinstein, Epstein or even Polanski or Woody Allen have wholly escaped consequences for their deplorable behavior is untrue.[/quote] Kobe wasn’t convicted. They settled and she walked away with money. He never went on to commit anything like that again. In fact he stayed out of the papers. Woody Allen is walking around like he did nothing. No charges. Still making movies. How long did it take to finally bring down the others? How many women had to be hurt before the others were even mentioned? [/quote] So they both got off scott-free, because they are rich and famous. Isn’t that the problem?[/quote] +1 Rich and focus get away with abusing women. This has to stop. #kobebryantrapist[/quote]
