Leave Chris Brown alone!

People do make mistakes, and yes the media wouldnt be the media if they werent playing it up ya know. However it's never warranted to hit or strike back at a woman for any reason, the michael jackson theme should be in play there be a lover not a fighter, even if he felt he was provoked in any way. As it is said that violence is never the answer. It is quite okay to get and be anger its a natural emotion but one must know how to manage that anger and redirect.

I'm sorry but for whatever reason, one person should never ever hit another person. It doesnt matter if you've just lost your cool or if you were drunk or if it was just one slap across the face, violence is still violence no matter what the case may be. also being a 19-year-old is not an excuse. he's an adult. he knew what he was doing and I believe he deserves every single thing coming to him. we can always always choose to do the right thing. just because you were provoked doesnt mean you automatically have the right to hit back. you can be the bigger person, you could have been more patient or better yet you could have reported that person and she would have been the one to go to jail instead of you. yes, we get provoked and we get angry. but violence is always a choice. there are many things he could have done instead. and just for that he deserves every single harsh word that comes his way. we may not know what really happened or if the stories were exagerated, but the bottomline is, he hit rhianna. whether it was just one slap on the face or if he wringed her neck to the point of unconsciousness, it really doesnt matter. violence is still violence, no matter what the form. so no, Chris Brown should not be left alone.

did you see the pics of her face? he didn't just split her lip. I don't care what the arguement was about, and the first person to hit was the first person to be wrong. but for the second person to hit back is not a whole lot more wrong. if someone hits you call the cops or at least get away from the situation. They are young people and people make mistakes if he goes for counselling they might yet save their relationship. She should go for counselling too. Hopefull they can work it out before this kind of thing happens again.

i agree... i dont liek what he did at all... but i think that we shouldnt judge because we have no idea what really happened. the media always hypes things up to be more than what it really is...

i doubt if any one of us can comment on this issue as nobody would ever hear what had actually happened.. Both sides would present exaggerated versions of their side of the story and truth would be lost amidst all that. It maybe plausible(as u mentioned) that he might have been provoked.. It is a sad thing that law always upholds the women rights over the men's, but it is a situation created by men themselves. i guess we should all stay low and let law take its own course..

Rhianna should leave Chris Brown alone. Chris Brown is a celebrity, so he has to deal with the focus of the media - both positive and negative. Yes, he is only 19 but he should know by now that he does not have the right to put his hands on anyone. It doesn't matter what the details of the fight were. He had no right to hit her, and she had no right to hit him. If she hit him first, he should have walked away, reported her to the police and left her alone for good. She should leave him alone for good - now! But she is sick too. Domestic violence is a brutal sickness that is very hard to cure. It escalates in cycles until the abuser kills his victim or is jailed. The abuser and the victim feed on this sickness and the cycle of abuse. Counseling rarely helps.

No real man ever hits a woman no matter what she may have done. He should have left the situation. If He want's to be left alone then he needs to get out of the entertainment business. When One gets famous then the put themselves under the public microscope. It is his and her choice and they seem to like it. It's like Paris Hilton. Getting a lot of attention.

Well I do believe that if a man can't hit a woman, then a woman shouldn't hit a man! But on that note... I do believe in most cases a man is a lot stronger & should just walk away... If someone hits you... walk away... if your bring attacked, then heck, if you need to knock someone off of you, then morre power to you... But, Chris Brown messed this girls face up... he didn't just knock her one good time, more like several times & I'm sorry, I don't care if she came up behind him & knocked him good... he should of walked away & been the bigger person... No, I don't know the full story, but I have seen the pictures... that tells enough... Just shows how much of a big strong man Chris really is... so strong hitting on a woman two times smaller then him!

they should leave him alone. you never know the whole story and what really happend. and she shouldnt of put herself in the position that would make him have to defend his self

Sourceseeker, In the first place, CB should have remembered that he is a role model and that there is an important performing engagement to fulfill with his lover. I do not feel a single bit of unfair here, like everyone of the guys here he had a choice at that time and he chose otherwise. You may say that he is being provoked but 2 wrongs just does not make 1 right and violence here is simply unthinkable and unbecoming here. If you look at the photos of the extensive injuries, I think you will agree that it is a far cry from your ex-wife's cut lip. So do you still think he deserves any lighter or preferential treatment or benefit of doubt there? And, may I remind you that though he is no saint, he is not a nobody but a highly respected celebrity. If we were to even bat an eyelid here, I do not think it will do any justice to the seriously wounded victim, his celebrity status, morality and reputation. I just cannot condone to a highly regarded celebrity who can totally disregard his self control in the presence of the general public and forget his performance engagement. In all fairness, he nearly wrecked the occasion with his disregard and spur of the moment, so what less do you think he deserves? I think you need to be a little objective here as whatever had happened to you may not be similar here. Besides, if you had read much CB has had a history of violent outbreaks and this is not his first. Everyone is human, and I am sure if that victim is your daughter then, I am sure you will have a different reaction and prerogative. And, if I may add a little further, even to the extent that your daughter might have provoked it, your stance will be different from the one here. IMO, the media is really necessary, had there been a cover up here then I am sure he will just escape Scott free and probably be hitting another weak girl. I feel that the media, sometimes may do a better good here. No offense. Have a nice day.

I agree with you that the media needs to back off him. No one really knows what happened between Chris and Rhianna except those two and God. I am glad Chris is getting some counseling from his pastor and it looks like Rhianna has forgiven him since it is reported they reunited. It may have been the case that she did to something make him angry. Like everyone else, he is human and I hope it all works out for the better.

no mercy, rihanna will rue the day she let this bad seed into her life. He is the ike turner of this generation and weak for hitting a women. I do not care if she hit him first, spit on his face, slept with his best friend. This guy is scum and deserves all the negative attnetion and i hope this stays with him like a black scarlett letter forver.
