Rihanna is still trusting that this man will or has changed....for her sake I hope so...I so hope she does not become another statistic. |
Yes I knew that about you from your prior posts, and I look up to you bc of that. What you say is exactly how I feel. She could have been a great advocate for domestic abuse, but sadly, she isn't. Only time will tell if she was right, or we were.

However just this week he was in trouble once again saying a paparazzi made him get in a car crash, or something like that. Then he's in a fight with whoever this Frank Ocean guy is...tsk tsk. |
Actually I didn't watch, and I don't have TV at home, but Yahoo makes it inevitable for me to avoid it. Same with when he got in the fight with Frank Ocean. Don't know his music but just heard on the news radio and Yahoo that he's a singer. Saw on Yahoo that he won a Grammy and Chris Brown did not give a standing O like everyone else did. He got in a fight with him over a parking spot at a recording studio. I think if FO did not come out as being gay or bi that CR would not have fought him.
Point being, if you are on FORMAL probation (meaning you have to check in with your probation officer bc of a felony, not like informal probation like having a DUI misdomeanor--looking at you LiLo
you had your chance), if you are an regular person and get in a fight or have an issue that is a violation, you go to jail, period! Why is CB not back in jail? Marc Garagos again?
Wish we were all that rich huh?
