A $100k fine for that is ridiculous.  I'm no Kobe fan, but FFS he was just venting.

I'm just sick and tired of US blacks getting special treatment when it comes to "slur words" (with "nigger" being treated as a much worse slur than "faggot", "kike" or "paki") while themselves being one of the most homophobic ethnic groups living in the US.

I think American society has a pretty fucked up attitude there and refuses to call a spade a spade.

Speaking of words, I've become tired of channels bleeping 'faggot' while dropping the n-bomb. I'm looking at you Comedy Central.

Chapelle Show drops nigger at 8pm? fine.

Lisa Lampanelli's stand up at 10pm with faggot censored? Fuck you.

Would you find a fine like this ridiculous too if someone called Kobe a nigger?

If that ref called Kobe a nigger, he would not be fined - he would be fired.

And they would be right to do so.

But this is the NBA, the stars get to do whatever they like.

Faggot isn't a slur, you faggot.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Okay, fag.

Indeed.  For one thing, it's socially acceptable.

It also has non-hateful meanings.

WTF dude he got fined 100,000 dollars.  How is that special treatment?  Everybody is ripping the guy.

Nah a message needed to be sent.  Stuff like that screws with the image of the entire league.  A brand is worth millions and long after Kobe has retired.

It is Marty. The fact that such an event happened in America makes us all complicit.
