I have been shocked by people's honestly raw reaction to the Chrihanna smackdown. What's more hurtful is that people can look for any type of justification for the actions of Chris Brown. These antiquated views from this generation worries me.
There are alot of people who are very sympathic to him, and they are on both sides of fence.
The younger the females; the more closeminded they sound. And men, well men just plainly relate to the situation. Each of my male friends that I talked to about it have been pushed to that limit where you pray for the strength to not hit her. Or the opportunity to walk away before it escalates... What's most scary is that more often than not people's natural reaction is a reach to say she "must've done something." As one female remarked to me: "She popped it off."
This is not to negate her responsibility either. But we are talking about a very immature 20 year old, who is really not as sophisicated as she looks. And he is 19 years old, no matter what transpired that night the fact remains that Chris Breezy is sitting somewhere thinking about how much grief he could have spared himself if he had just walked away. I can guarantee you that.
Not walking away is going to cost him millions of dollars. I don't care about his fans. I don't care about his image. It is going to cost him time & energy to try and repair all of those other things. Just like T.I. & his gun charges or Michael Vick and his kennel club. People have moments of incredibly bad judgement. Period. Stop trying to make excuses for it.

Toure says if you're sympathetic to Chris and blaming Rihanna, I don't overstand you. An "wait for the full story" sounds like "Rihanna, prove you didn't deserve it." 5:29pm - Comment - LikeUnlike - Show Feedback (51)Hide Feedback (51)
As much as I agree with him. He is the minority.
This incident is proving that some people, are still believing that sometimes "assaults" or "violence" or "fighting" women is understandable. I find those people troubling. Shit, I bet you Chris Brown would tell you it's never okay to hit a woman. I bet if we ran down incidents, scenarios & examples of when it's okay, we couldn't get him to budge on it. He understands this now.
If you as a man has ever found yourself in that situation, where you are suddenly trying to explain your (weak) actions to let's say a police officer or detective, you'd agree with Chris too. I mean if there are justifiable reasons to hit a woman, why on Earth did he run away from the scene?? He should have stayed his narrow ass there and explained his justifiable reasons why what he did was okay and everything would be A-ok. The police would have said, "Mr. Brown-you're absolutely right; we understand-Goodnight". But unfortunately for all involved that didn't happen.
Is it hard to walk around in life and not want to attack people that we feel violate us, disrespect us or wrong us? Yes it is. But the overall point is it's never okay to use violence. And that goes for Rihanna too. If he was cheating and you busted him or felt disrespected than you are the damn dummy who should've walked away in that scenario.
Domestic Violence is real. And it's happening all around you to woman of all ages & walks of life. If you think you can justify a "random occurance of extreme brutality" what are you saying to young women??
Most victims of DV could tell you that this was probably not their first experience (Chris & Rihanna), it was more than likely the one that couldn't go ignored.
I listened to a radio show the other night we're young women called and ragged Ri-ri ass out. One woman claimed: "She wasn't no ride or die chick! Calling the cops on him like that...:[."
I guess it's better to be a Riding dead bitch, huh? *shakes head*
Young women with opinions like that need to value themselves alittle bit more. I'm just saying...
