While numerous black celebs have come out AGAINST Clippers' owner Donald Sterling,Jumping The Broom star Laz Alonso has stepped on the frontline to defend the embattled businessman....sorta.   See Laz's statement inside....

The Twitterverse attacked actor Laz Alonso after he posted a few tweets that some fans thought amounted to a defense of Donald Sterling's racist comments.  Laz tweeted,

“Why r they makin such a big deal about #DonaldSterling?” Laz tweeted. “He was arguing with his girl who was clearly baiting him 2 say those things @clippers … In arguments of passion & despair people say horrible things they dont truly feel @clippers @ESPNLosAngeles #DonaldSterling … Making racial comments when either #roadraging or #arguing with a lover does not count!!! #Relax #emotions #passion @NBA @ESPNLosAngeles … Everybody acts holier than thou until u do the same. Dude was feeling insecure. End of story.”

After fans began attacking him on his timeline, Laz offered a few follow up tweets that revealed he WAS NOT defending Donald, but wanted to offer a different perspective (in 140 characters or less) about intimate conversations between two adults.  

He tweeted, 

Lets take 4 example all the people calling names & being rude when I'm trying 2 hav a discussion. Do ur words right now define who u are?

He added, 

Have u ever said something in an argument w ur lover & apologized afterwards? Emotions r high when ur in love. That distinction was my point

 

As Laz's conversation with his Twitter followers, do you agree that it is NOT wise to form an opinion about someone based on one conversation/discussion.  

 

SPEAK ON IT?
