L.A. Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant appeared to use a homophobic slur while cursing out an NBA ref last night, and a gay rights group is justifiably livid.

Clearly upset, he appeared to call Bennie Adams a “F**king f**got.” The Lakers say they can’t confirm what was said, but it looks obvious. An announcer even said, “You might wanna take the cameras off of him” … Kobe Bryant Curses at Ref In the wake of this incident, the Human Rights Campaign called it “a disgrace for Kobe Bryant to use such horribly offensive and distasteful language.” Even worse, the group said in condemning Kobe – “a person with such fame and influence” – was that he did this with millions of people watching: “Such language not only offends millions of LGBT [lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender] people around the world, but also perpetuates a culture of discrimination and hate that all of us, most notably Mr. Bryant, should be working to eradicate.”

Iran says foreign countries should not make the case of a woman sentenced to death by stoning for adultery into a human rights issue. Foreign Ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast said Tuesday that if releasing murderers is a human rights issue, then those nations should release all of their murderers from jail.
