43. I think being contrary and righteous is their schtick

They wanted to get a rise out of people and I'm in such a crappy mood I bit. Life is fleeting.. Kobe brought me joy over the years in that I am a die hard Lakers fan. He has done a lot for the LA community and worldwide. He was headed to greater things in post NBA life. We mourn what the future would have given us too..

The haters have nothing but their own self loathing when they do stuff like that. pathetic.
