If you have enough money and power you make “mistakes” without consequences.

If you are the average citizen you do hard time for “crimes”.

When am I going to see enough neurotic fawning over this fkn ball-bouncing rapist? Anyone know the names of any of the other victims that died? Anyone know the name of his rape victim?

Americans are becoming sentimental star-suckling morons. Practically a national holiday over this ridiculous PIECE OF FK.

Absolutely right.

The media has shown us how nice a guy Kobe was, but hasn’t said a word about him being a practicing Christian.

This is what I mean - comparing "Kobe" to biblical Saints and kings. And you're SERIOUS.

Please do not ping me anymore. The stupid hurts.

“We all live chekered lives.”

Some a lot more checkered than others.

Unlike this writer, I’m not judging Bryant.

YES, in regards to a person’s LIFE, it is right to compare him to Biblical saints or, as the Bible calls it HUMAN BEINGS, all SINNERS.

Heck, I can even compare YOU and ME to these saints as well. Who are we all but helpless sinners in need of redemption from our sins?

You need to explain to me why it is stupid. we are not comparing moral or national achievements here, we are comparing FALLEN human beings in need of God’s mercy and grace.

Him also but Yeshua came from the lineage of David and what he had done as king would warrant someone else but God chose wisely as always.
