I decided against writing a vengeance porn thread during the Grammys, but like a gift from heaven, it ended up writing itself.

Oh well. Looks fake.

That doesn't mean we still can't have some revenge porn.

Its pretty sickening how quickly people have forgiven Chris Brown. Hopefully this will p*ss him right off. Bad things couldn't happen to a more deserving chap.
I have plenty of more important things to do, if only I could bring myself to do them....

I suppose I'm a bit confused as to the point of this thread. I have opendns filtering set to keep the kids out of trouble … and consequently the site linked to is blocked for me. So what's the issue?

He supposedly discussed a gay encounter over twitter, but it turns out it's fake.

Were this true, it'd no doubt have some interesting reprecussions on his career, especially considering his record of dealing with things maturely.

OIC. Well there's an odd phenomenon in African-American celebrity circles. Eventually everybody who is anybody will face rumors of A) s/he is gay, and B) s/he has died. When one of these occurs it's a tell-tale sign that you've made it. Sounds like this fits the description.

PS: As for his career, Chris Brown will continue to do just fine if he will but learn to accept the fact that there will always be those who will never get past the Rihanna incident. There's no point getting upset about it. There's no point going back and forth over Twitter with those who have something to say. Responding in that fashion only plays into the narrative they are espousing about him. The best thing he can do is to ignore the criticism and just focus on his career and keeping his nose clean. Which shouldn't be all that difficult since that's precisely what he was known for beforehand.

Meh. I don't think anyone doubts that Chris Brown will end up beating her in some form again in the future its just a matter of who believes it is a serious issue. I'd blame her for putting herself in that situation but given that she had an absentee father with a series of bastard children (shocker i know) spread across North America I think its obvious how she got the issues that led her here.

I don't even think that the majority of the public has gotten past his criminal behavior. However I do think that the people who would buy or listen to his music have been disproportionally influenced by the culture the bred both of them and perpetuated their fame. The same culture that seems to think that domestic violence is not a big deal.

If those people want to shrug it off and say everyone should forgive Brown and put it in the past then I hope they aren't disappointed when their daughter gets passed around like a joint by a bunch of thugs because she's been brought up to think its a normal part of life.

On the bright side, everyone still hates Michael Vick for kicking a puppy.
