Just saw Chris Brown winning a VMA. I am disgusted beyond every recognition that someone who beated the crap out of his girlfriend still gets to be celebrated, win awards and what not, without even spending one second in jail for what he has done. This is another example of how many males easily can get away with abuse when they have a certain amount of money/fame, a good reputation etc
Frankly, I think the biggest problem with identifying and bringing to justice the predators, rapists, abusers and all other kind of douches that use someone for sex, abuse, rape etc., is that most of the people like to believe they’re always the scary unknown person… In their minds it’s never a member of our family, a friend, an acquaintance, a partner, your spouse, that nice and friendly person we know, our friendly boss.. or heck any other kind of person we somehow (are supposed to) cherish and trust.
What do you think?
