After receiving a technical foul during Tuesday's game, Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant stormed back to the bench and appeared to direct a homophobic slur toward referee Bennie Adams.
Bryant's reaction was caught on camera on TNT's national telecast of the key Western Conference battle with the San Antonio Spurs. He hit his seat before sitting down, threw a towel and then yelled, "Bennie," toward the court. Bryant then leaned back and muttered what appeared to be a gay slur.
TNT announcer Steve Kerr picked up on Bryant's outburst and said: "You might wanna take the cameras off of him right now, for the children watching from home."
"The video from Tuesday's game is under review by the NBA," league spokesman Tim Frank said to ESPNLosAngeles.com via email.

They'll forgive him because he's black.

I remember the day news came out he raped that woman... I was saying no way... Now who cares.. Kobe is a spoiled brat.

I watched the video and they blurred out his damn mouth. What the hell did he say? :lmao:

What the hell are they afraid of? that some lip reader might get offended?
Jesus, what a nation of pussies we have devolved into...

We are supposed to look the other way on issues such as Soetoro's hemorrhagic spending or the massive flood of illegals invading our border too like it isn't happening and dare not say a discouraging word.
I personally don't give a flying squirrel about political correctness. I interpret P.C. to mean "Protected Class". Affirmative Action comes to mind. Special people with special rules that don't apply to them but they damn sure apply to you.
So what if he called a fag a fag. If the hamster fits...
If the fairies don't like then too freakin' bad. Boo hoo.

He called the ref's name, "Bennie", and then apparently used Ghey term of endearment, faggot, right? What if he merely said "**** it", meaning that it wasn't worth it?
-
And he was fined $100,000 by the NBA. :whatever:

so now that has me wondering.......if he went up to one of his friends on tape and said "whassup my nigga" would he be penalized? Would he be penalized if he called the ref a "cracker"?
