To the apologists:
The fact of the matter is that he IS getting off easy and that he did NOT take responsibility for his actions. Are any of you apologists aware of the fact that the had the gall to plead “NOT GUILTY” to the charges before they offfered him a plea bargin?! Taking responsibility my tuchas! He denied even committing the act until they offered him an easy way out.

180 days of community service with no jailtime and five years of probation?! For domestic abuse that leaves the victim looking the way Rhianna did?! The vast majority of domestic abusers get jailtime for less than that!

And that Larry King interview is full of baloney. Boo-hoo,. he grew up in a household full of domestic abuse, but that’s not who he is as a person! He was shocked at his own actions! Wait… so why even bring your mother with you to speak about how she was beaten by her husband as well? Isn’t that like saying “It’s not my fault, it’s my upbringing’s fault!”… onliy it isn’t because that’s not who he is as a person?

He even claims that he and Rhianna were like Romeo & Juliette and that it was the media who drove them apart. No, idiot, it was YOU. if it took the media to make Rhianna realize Brown is a dirtbag, then go the media! When you lay a hand on your partner, especially to that extent, you shouldn’t get a second chance!

He also claims that the night is a blur to him. A convenient excuse. So, to sum it all up, he is not taking responsibility for his actions at all! He paid for an expensive lawyer and held out for a good plea bargin (no jailtime) before pleadng guilty (he had the audacity to plea NOT guilty initially) and then goes on Larry King trying to excuse his own behavior with the help of his own mother (she should be APPALLED at his actions as a former victim of domestic abuse, not supporting him!) while paying lip service to the idiots by “apologizing”.

That wasn’t apologizing! Actual apologies aren’t accompanied by floods of justifications for one’s own CRIMINAL behaviour and pinning of the blame on the media!

ITA with Lady G. Sometimes enough is enough. It trips me out that people who had nothing to do with the situation feel they should have such a strong opinion on it. I guess we have forgot the many other “Hip Hop” artist who have beat woment in the past and nothing was said of it..i.e.,, Jay Z, Dr. Dre and the list goes on. Of course, because the people they beat on were “nobody’s” we only criticize Chris Brown. Last time I checked this is America, the land of so called second chances but I guess that only applies to a few, in case your name is Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, or Nicole Richie.

@Lady G — When Chris Brown completes all aspects of his punishment, then he can begin to be off the hook in my book. And in regards to “covering all the aspects” that you would like me to cover … I can’t write about everything. I will not write about everything. I write about the things and people that interest me most, my blog cannot and will not be all things to everyone. If the coverage doesn’t suit you then I don’t know what to say. I do what I do … and that’s all I can do.

@Trent – that’s perfectly fine that you don’t feel the need to warrant a response. Everything else aside, all I want to know is what YOU (as the obvious moral authority here) would like for Chris Brown to do to show remorse. I mean you seem to be making quite the point that he is wrong (and he is) but someone is not forever known as wrong after they make a mistake, even if that mistake is a crime. Like @Sarah said, he’s serving his time, he’s been convicted, what more do you want? And if it is that big a deal to you, just stop covering him at all.

@Anita (& @Trent) – I suppose I used the wrong choice of words. However, all I know is that most of the time when I visit this blog, there is not any equal news devoted to celebrities of color. As a Hispanic female, I would like to see a variety of celeb news not just the same White celebrities. There is daily news that covers every aspect of the industry and I think it’s unfortunate that a blog that is well written and entertaining (PITNB) doesn’t cover all the aspects. I’m sure I’m not the only one that hates to have to bookmark many different types of blogs to get “Black” celebrity news, “Hip-Hop” News, “Latina” news, etc. All I’m saying is since the world is diverse, it would be nice if the good blogs were as well. And its unfortunate that Trent, you as a minority fail to realize this.

No i don’t agree with his actions obviously. I grew up in a home full of domestic violence. But, the punishment he is serving is no different than what your next door neighbor would serve. Your neighbor would probably serve less time actually. Are you upset more because it was a celebrity he battered? While i feel what he did was disgusting, again we all make mistakes and deserve a second chance. In my opinion if he serves his time he has done what was asked of him.

Okay this is so effed up. This major douche (yes people he is still a douche even tho Kanye been all in the news of late). thinks its OKAY to act all cool and wicked whilst doing this crap because of breaking the law. He is such a loser its not funny.
—
walking round thinking he is top sh*t & all. and he is allowed a bodyguard. i’m sorry, well im not really, but he should lose all rights as a citizen when doing his community labour. all rights should be lost except for rights to breathe, drink water & eat. NOT MCDONALDS. No bodyguard. That smile on his face needs to wiped clean! The way he takes his shirt off the douche of a show-off – the cops should make him work harder than what he seems to be doing in this video. Ahh his time will come and this is only the beginning. I just REALLY hope his album & singles bomb,i doubt they will too much, but they really NEED to. His life needs to be ruined.

Trent I love your blog, I loved Chris Brown, I still like him, he made a horrible horrible decision, probably multiple horrible decisions and he is paying retribution for them and only time will tell if he will change to be a better person and if his career will be saved. I know you keep saying you don’t have a personal vendetta against him but you are truly devoting more time to your blog now than ever to this “scum of the earth” as you call him. And not to rain on your parade but doesn’t the saying go “There’s no such thing as bad publicity”. So for the love of Pink stop with the daily Chris postings, I actually live in Richmond, VA and am getting more than enough of Chris locally. If you keep this up your blog is going to turn into a personal police blotter for Brown. Enough is enough, get over it and move on.

To me, the thing about this is that I see a person who did a terrible thing and that is showing regret and responsibility, at least at some degree. A LOT of other celebrities just do 20 minutes in jail and that’s it, right back to the same… and that celebrities are people that you (Trent) don’t show the same dislike that you show here. I now that is really a matter of personal opinion, and to me, even though what he did is something that is very hard to forget, at least he is showing the intention of redeem himself… and that something.
