Like I said before, if you know Kobe well enough to be hurt by his death, that event isn't some breaking news. You aren't giving someone information they didn't have before. This is an emotional time for people. It isn't the time to be trying to have logical arguments on whether he did or didn't commit a crime. Nobody here wants to have that argument right now. They're not in a good frame of mind to have it. Give people some room to breathe and recover. Maybe the lesson is "don't hero worship celebrities" if Kobe's death leaves you this emotional that pointing out he settled a rape case (where he admitted that the other party didn't consent) is a "NOT NOW" moment. Like I feel for his family and especially for the loss of the 13 year old daughter, but sometimes we should reflect a bit on our priorities when the response to facts about his life is to get angry at the person giving the facts and not the facts themselves. --- TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues. <cite>TheRock1525 posted [p:933558915] in Kobe Bryan...
