however, in the instance that a woman/man does give a man/woman an incurable disease on top of that cheating on him, i can most definitely understand why he'd/she'd lay hands on her/him. how would YOU react if your man gave you HIV from a partner ourside of your relationship? would you just cry and keep it pushing or would you lose control in the heat of the moment?

i honestly hope your daughter gets beat black and blue someday for being dumb enough to hurt some black man in some kind of way (by cheating on him, giving him herpes, something stupid that doesnt warrant a beatdown) so that you an see just how stupid it is to even remotely defend this shit.

the best thing about domestic violence happening in the public arena is that its nice to find out who's really a jackass in real life. its good to find out who supports a woman getting a beatdown under any circumstances at all. its good to find out whose daughter might some day get a beatdown/whose son might chris brown it out just because their mummy/daddy raised them to see domestic violence as tolerable under certain conditions.

good to know the douchebags among us can come clean.

If you would have gone to the link I posted and taken the time to view the memorial, you would clearly understand that domestic violence does not discriminate! I would also like to take this opportunity to let you know that while most domestic violence incidents are reported by poor and working class women, the victims who are LEAST likely to report domestic violence are middle and upper class women. They do not report it because of their status and/or social standing...it is embarrassing to them...so, they do not report it...that is fact! Class, race, education-or lack of, socioeconomic status, and religion has nothing to do with who will and will not become a victim. I usually refrain from getting on my soapbox, but your comment was very judgemental. What you seem to be saying is that black people are poor, ignorant, and uneducated and, therefore, domestic violence is natural. So natural, in fact, that you argue that even if someone becomes successful they cannot escape their natural violent tendencies. Your statement is harsh, prejudicial, and...if I might add...ignorant.

It doesn't matter how much money a person has, if they still have the same values that is what they are going to hold dear and near to them. And not to sound old-fashioned, but if Chris Brown knew he was sexually active with Rhianna and they were having unprotected sex, did he not know what the possible consequences could have been? That goes back to ignorance. I am not suggesting that he has and STD or not, but if that is the case he must have missed that lesson in health class.

Seriously, it takes two to tango and he should have had her tested b4 bumpin and grindin in the dark...who's fault is it that HE got an STD from consentual sex? That is if the rumors are true and that it's really Rihanna that he hit. And being a man that hit a woman out of anger is a sad, sad pathos thing. He should have been scared of hitting her in the first place...that is if he valued living....

I choose 1. for men and women.
