Bitch Be Crazy (And Other Things)

I was browsing a forum earlier, when another member (and a friend of mine) brought it to our attention that Rihanna is apparently taking Chris Brown back. Bitch be crazy.

Now I'm not much for keeping up with celebrities and such. I figure, hey, I've got enough drama in my own life - I'm not going to waste my money on rag magazines that will only expose me to more drama. But I digress. This story just infuriates me though because people have kept making up excuses for Chris Brown about how he "learned" to be abusive from his father. Yes, it's sad that he grew up watching his father beat the shit out of his mother. BUT HE'S NINETEEN YEARS OLD. He's not a little boy anymore, he should know right from wrong, he has the ability to make conscious decisions, and he made one by choosing to beat Rihanna. I don't care if I don't really like her music, no one deserves that.

I do understand anger management issues though, as I can honestly say I have a few of those myself. I've never beaten someone to a pulp though, let alone beaten them so badly that they had to be admitted to the hospital. And I certainly could never find it in me to beat someone that I "love." (Admittedly, I am female so probably wouldn't stand much of a chance trying to beat up a male, but in that last sentence, I am speaking generally - family, friends, a lover, etc.)

What I can't understand is why she's going back to him. OK, maybe she does love him, and that's cool. But if he did it once, what's to say he might not do it again? It's cliche but it's true - they say they won't do it again, and yet they do.

Chris Brown says he's sorry. Is he really sorry, or just sorry that he got caught?

Huge difference people.
