Agree Or Disagree W/ Kobe Bryant On Trayvon Martin: “You sit and you listen to the facts.”

March 30, 2014 by Leave a Comment

“The Unhappy Hour” host Brian Engelman covers the recent comments from Kobe Bryant about the George Zimmerman self-defense trial:

“I won’t react to something just because I’m supposed to, because I’m an African-American,” Bryant said. “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, we’ve progressed as a society, then don’t jump to somebody’s defense just because they’re African-American. You sit and you listen to the facts just like you would in any other situation, right? So I won’t assert myself.”
