Thoughts on Chris Brown...
So today my iTunes went past a Chris Brown song and it got me to thinking. I wasn't going to speak on the situation at all...clearly by my delay in writing this. But after hearing this song and remembering a comment made by a radio show host the other day, I just had to speak my peace.
In the land of second chances I find it funny that we are so quick to condemn Chris. We've forgiven people for much worse over the years but yet here we are giving Chris Brown hell. What a double standard. Are you saying that what he's done is worse than the others the media and the public has forgiven? R. Kelly is a pedophile. You all still dance to his music. You can give all the reason in the world you want (the girl didn't look young, she wanted to do it, blah blah blah) but the bottom line is..HE LIKES TO FUCK LITTLE GIRLS. But you all still make babies to his music. You have forgiven murderers, those who have witnessed murders and not spoken up, snitches...but not Chris.
Some say that, well the people we mention are not inspirations to young people. He was a role model. Well....you've forgiven Kobe and he's a rapist (I know the court acquitted him or whatever..blah blah blah...don't hit me with that shit). Last time I checked, basketball players were bigger role models to young men than R&B singers. But again, you've found reason and ways to explain away his actions.
Bottom line is Chris is a child. Yes...a child... you grown ass women lusting after a little boy. Being 18 only makes you grown in the eyes of the law. It doesn't actually mean you are grown mentally. Think about how much you have changed in the years since you turned 18. Think about all the things you've done that you wouldn't do today. Everyone makes mistakes. His mistake just happened to occur with America's current sweetheart. I think that it is only fair for the public to give him a chance just as you've done with all the other grown ass fuck ups.
This is not meant to say that what he did wasn't wrong. It was terrible, I've seen the photos. In general circumstances there is never a reason to pound on a woman. Period. I'm just saying be fair.....

"You can spend minutes, hours, days, weeks, or even months over-analyzing a situation; trying to put the pieces together, justifying what could've, would've happened... or you can just leave the pieces on the floor and move the fuck on."

Maybe I've opened your mind to a new thought or idea. Maybe you've been through similar experiences as I have and can relate to my issues, struggles and irritations. True understanding cannot begin until we start talking. I just want to give us something good to talk about.
