Kobe is a snitch

Counter Argument and Rubettal to Kobe is a Snitch

The counter argument to Kobe being a snitch is that he is not a snitch. Some people may argue that Kobe did not tell on Shaq because he did not specifically say what Shaq did. Kobe just stated that he should have did the same thing. Some may also argue that Kobe was not trying to tell on Shaq but was just saying this kind of stuff happens all the time. So when he was talking to the media he did not actually tell what happen, he was putting it in a way to make it seem like he wasn’t telling on Shaq.

While I understand where others see Kobe not as a snitch, I still argue that he is. First, he did not need to say what Shaq really did because Kobe was being interviewed by the media about the accusation of sexual assault. When he said he should have done what Shaq did, he was already giving to much information that could get Shaq in trouble. Next, I would argue that Kobe did bring up Shaq on purpose. Kobe wanted all the attention off himself, so he felt the need to put Shaq in the spot light. Kobe wanted to point out that since Shaq paid to keep people quiet and he should have done it to. Since Kobe used Shaq’s name and an example he is a snitch. He did not have to use Shaq’s name if he was trying to argue that this kind of stuff happens all the time. Kobe is a snitch because he did not have to bring Shaq’s name in the interview if he wasn’t asked about it, but instead he did it on purpose. Kobe wanted all the weight off his shoulders and that is what it means to be a snitch.
