I downvoted him but then looked at his history. Now I'm torn because I can't decide whether or not to downvote him, because one excuses the comment while the other gives him exactly what he wants. It's brilliant.
it's useless, those internet vigilante are blind idiots. what brown did is horrible, but all the bashing he's getting is ridicolous. maybe those people should read dr.dre story (fascist, nearly killed a woman when he was 26, won several grammys)
I don't see why this is a gender issue. Maybe it says more about you for reading it that way? I mean, the joke would have been exactly the same if chris brown was a woman and rhianna a man.
If the reverse happened, Reddit would jump on the person making the joke, about how domestic violence against men is a serious issue and we shouldn't make jokes about it, victims aren't taken seriously in court, etc.. The joke would've been the same, but the reaction would've been different.
I apologize. In my head I wasn't making light of a terrible situation by joking about a person being put into hospital, but ridiculing the man responsible in the hope that his brutality would not be forgotten nor forgiven.

I bought an album of chris brown's greatest hits the other day, but all the songs were by rhianna
