Intelligent man...

Published:

akers All-Star Kobe Bryant offered his view regarding the Trayvon Martin case and proved he was truly color-blind.

In an interview with the New Yorker, Bryant said he does not believe in defending someone just because they are black. He commented:

I won't react to something just because I'm supposed to, because I'm an African-American. That argument doesn't make any sense to me.

Bryant continued:

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."

He has common sense, most low-info people don't have any, they just have their hand stuck out. Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson are the first ones on the scene with their hand stuck out, whenever an incident happens.

I agree! He has both common sense and intelligence without any bias tendencies.

He is neither Black or White. He speaks, like other people should listen. Common sense and a good set of core values.
