If you don't cry for Kobe you are a nazi. Oh boy. Sad. More sad his daughter didn't get to live out a full life. But you can be sad and not have some huge attachment to these people and whine and cry in your cereal. I think this would apply more to musicians and actors who you would more likely form an attachment through rewatching their work. How many people sit around rewatching Laker games from 10 years ago or whatever.
JFK? You're comparing an accident to an assassination? Try to keep things in perspective...
so true
Kobe and the rest of the people on that chopper that died is terrible. Its a tragedy. Just like the thousands that die in a earthquake prematurely.. I'm not a NBA fan or a Kobe fan so thats why i can tie the two together. But for the fans of the NBA and Kobe I do see why you would be upset. Hopefully that clears it up for you .. We don't have to feel the same with every tragedy..

"I am in shock over the tragic news of Kobe's and Gianna's passing. Words can't describe the pain I'm feeling. I loved Kobe – he was like a little brother to me. We used to talk often and I will miss those conversations very much. He was a fierce competitor, one of the greats of the game and a creative force. Kobe was also an amazing dad who loved his family deeply – and took great pride in his daughter's love for the game of basketball. Yvette joins me in sending my deepest condolences to Vanessa, the Lakers organization and basketball fans around the world."

the magnitude of this Its trying to think if there ever has been an incident this big or a person who has impacted so many people....I mean it’s up there with the challenger exploding, princess Dianna was pretty big, this is as big of a tragedy to an individual today. This dude wasnt hiding you know it’s not like he was even really retired. I don’t think we’ve ever seen an athlete with the potential he had post athletic career. Just the impact.
