well first of all I dont think anybody knows what really went down that night but then you want to make a statement on things that went down that you didnt see. for all we know all this can be a set up or somthing dont you think that we would have seen a picture of chris brown or rhianna by now.I havent seen anything but a video of him in the back of the all black truck and i dont know if thats him or not cause i didnt even see his face. I think everything that went down that night was meant to go down and anyway chris said he had been scared from seeing his mother get beat by his step father and i can really relate to that because one of my aunts ex-husbands was in this situations when he was young and seeing his mother get beat by his biological father ended up beating on her its all about the past .everybody needs a 2nd chance because i know if you were in this situation you would want another chance too.

we dont know the whole story..their is always a two sides of the story..i’ve been a big fan of chris and i’m still a fan i’m not going to judge him on his personal life, thats his private life all i care about is his music, i feel bad for rihanna too but i also heard rumors that she is cheating with chris and you dont hire private detectives to follow ur bf all around the world that is just sick one thing for sure she has her own faults its just too bad that chris brown has to pay it all

Maria, you’re entitled to your opinion, but to say no apology is good enough is dead wrong. I mean really, can you honestly say that you haven’t done anything deserving an apology? Remember, you just might find yourself in a precarious situation as a result of a lapse in good judgment.

Donna,

I totally agree with you. Some of the comments I have read here and elsewhere seem to be pointing to a scary realisation. Young women seem to have their points mixed up when it comes to what is okay and what is not okay. Men should NEVER hit a woman EVER! No matter what has happened or what the situation, men should be strong enough internally to walk away from the situation. IT IS NOT OKAY TO HIT A WOMAN!

There is no apology good enough on this earth that can come from Chris Brown that would change anything. He still did what he did and no one will forget what he is.
He hit a female. In my book any guy that hits a woman is worthless. He ruined himself. He killed himself off in the world that he once knew, as a A-List celebrity. I don’t think he’s going to make it out of this one. He’s name is ruined. Even if he doesn’t go to prison, he’ll have nothing left by the time Rihanna’s lawyers are done with him. I hope she takes every penny he’s ever had!

Angela, You’re not much better than she is. How dare you say, “I hope you are abused one day by a man.” You’re both pitiful.

noemi peterson is an idiot with bad grammar and even worse judgement. i hope that you are abused one day by a man and i hope that will make you see the light. i am embarassed that you are a fellow woman…

I feel that chris brown didnt beat the un-faithful Rhianna.she been havin ever since she was with or without chris brown with out me knowing chris brown i can tell Rhianna is mad at his sucess so I accept chris brown apology for not doin nothin 2 un faithful witch she will never find ma man like chris brown the most momma boy i ever seen so rhianna lease get another life dat u can ruin but chris brown is a sucess the best R&b singer

I think what Chris did was wrong but every story has two side and whose to say what really happen but the two that were involved. People are so quick to judge. Stop being critics and help them both sove this problem.

chris u r so um i don’t have any words how to express how i am angry u made a very big mistake. how could you hit rihanna (a girl). shame on you. u r educated person but u know u act like a fat head. never do this again and ask for apology even if she says no u have to beggggggg!!!! u have to do any thing to fix this. we were one of ur fans but now…….?

I am truly saddened by this story and feels for them both….keeping in mind that a coin does have two sides. I however think it is a crying shame that men perform such cowardly acts. But let’s face the real truth hear these people have voices that is why they are under such scrutiny now let us do the same to the other spousal abusers give them their 15 minutes of shame this is what they need. Make their photos public show public support for the women they abuse and let these women know that their is is a world out there they can lean on….Those abusers are Joe Nextdoor keep your eyes and ears open for them and get them their 15 minutes you could be the one to save a life…..

This truly is a sad situation for all parties involved and by no means do I support violence of any sort, domestic violence goes far to unrecognized in this country, not enough is done to help the victims, and the sentencings sometimes seem to light, but I have to ask because I dont have all the information, my original briefing on this situation came from the Tom Joyner Morning Show and they made comment that the incident happedened because Rihanna was believed to have given Chris an STD, this has been down played and disregarded in all furter articles. The focus is clearly on Chris and him beating Rihanna, you have to talk about what led up to the abusive situation; they seem to have been in a exclusive, monogomous relationship, was he not to be hurt,saddened, angry, furious, I do not know any man or woman who wouldnt be. And isn’t because its just reported to be STD, had it been reported that she transmitted HIV or AIDS to this young man would we take a different view of the circumstances. I dont know,I just wonder how can you condemn him of his actions, without condemning her of hers.

I agree with Gabrielle Union..I would stay unbiased too only because there are facts but there are wrong facts too and people may just go with the wrong facts versus hearing what’s true and what’s not true… and as a society, we need to understand that violence is not the way to solve anything. there are young people today thinking that violence is the way and it turns out its not. as a society we lack the understanding of how domestic violence can effect your life and the environment around you.. I don’t think chris brown realized he was doing it and he let it get to him..he shouldn’t have ever had sexual contact with rihanna in the first place and i don;t think he got to know rihanna real well and it messed him up. and he messed up but she messed up also for not telling him some things too. but yes, i agree with gabrielle union on this..

Another reason you should get your facts straight, is because if you ever find yourself before a judge in a courtroom, you’d better hope your attorney has his/her facts straight, because all it takes is for the attorney who argues the best to convince a jury as to whether or not you end up behind bars. So leave CB and Rihanna alone and let the justice system deal with it. Quit trying to force them to be examples.

For goodness sakes, when did it become wrong to apologize and seek counseling. Are you critics free of any wrongdoing? I don’t condone violence against a woman or a man, unless it is in self defenses. But, you can’t take away someone’s efforts to correct bad behavior. For you people who condemn CB for the alleged assault, I hope you seriously examine some of the wrongs you’ve committed in your lifetime, because at least he has a chance to get it right again. I’m sure he and Rihanna will come out on top, because they both seem to be good people.

Typical abuser. Beats the hell out of her, then the next says he’s sorry and gives her flowers. Right, that should make it all better. I hope she speaks out about this incident, because reading some of these comments brings to light how ill educated some women (in particular the young ones) are about domestic abuse. Get educated before it happens to you!!

It’s very unfortunate that so many take so little regard for the actions of others. to be judged by a body of your peers when accused is a part of our constitution. Think about this first. Second the actions were not kept in silence so we the people have an enate right to our opinion. To those who have never been struck in the persuit of violence quiet yourself until you’ve had the experience to the individuals who believe it is okay to strike in disagreement please believe that once you are on the other side of this unwarrent event your belief will change

she is out siooo

Lets keep our mouse till the true folds

It’s not just between Rihanna, Chris, and God. The justice system is also involved. Domestic abuse is a crime.
