Honestly though, if somebody calls a white ref the n word i would laugh, because you're so frustrated you're belligerent. I get sexist/racist all types of prejudice when i'm mad, don't really mean it, but i'm just furious. This is just being human, but different rules apply to the famous.

According to Sixers guard Allen Iverson, a spectator in Indianapolis called him a ___ during a game on Jan. 28. He responded by calling the man a (same word Kobe used). Iverson was fined $5,000 by the National Basketball Association after NBC cameras caught him saying the word. Link
Very consistent, huh

you know damn well they don't

these herbs will always find a way to twist it and make it seem like what was said was no big deal or incomparable to the n word being used in a similar situation

a derogatory statement is a derogatory statement is a derogatory statement no matter what. can't have it just one way when something said only hurts your feelings then turn around and say "oh it's no big deal" when a member of another group is being offended.

That was 10 years ago...and it's not like the NBA hasn't tried to fix it's image since then.  I totally believe Kobe in the sense that he wasn't saying it to offend anyone who is gay.  However, the words he said are VERY offensive to many people.  If he wasn't caught on camera, this probably goes unnoticed and slides.  It was just a really poor choice of words to use in a public venue.

Used in the same way kobe did, where it's not actually directed at someone gay, just the person currently getting on your nerves is kinda funny.  Reminds of that louis ck barista bit.

does it remind you of Kramer?
who is also a comedian?

I'm not taking a stand "for" gays or "against" blacks, (or otherwise)

I just think people say regrettable things in the heat of passion and I hate when people get upset and make it an issue

edit:

can you imagine a white player saying the N word to a black ref?

hope you'd guys would be just as understanding

This is a case of entrapment, yeah thats right, ENTRAPMENT. The camera stayed on Kobe while he walked to the bench, and while he sat on it. Why? Because they knew he was pissed and barking at the ref. Then they got what they wanted and fined him. It's +%+!$!**. They are ruining the game. What happens between the lines, should stay between the lines, no matter what the camera catches. Get the damn camera away from the bench.

If the players union don't appeal this they are a terrible union.
