Had an argument today with a guy at work who thinks the hate Chris Brown got was mostly racially motivated. I said no it's because he's a **** who beat up his girlfriend, is completelty unrepentant and made millions of dollars off it.

He thinks white people who commit similar crimes like Paul Gascoigne and John Lennon get away lightly and are largely revered to this day. I said it's because Brown had pictures of exactly what he did splashed all over the internet and thus it sticking in people's minds over what an enormous **** he really is.

Anyways, what say you guys?

edit: thanks ****

If Chris Brown had struck her with whips and chains, would that have been ok, seeing as though Rihanna is on record as saying they 'excite her'?

Nah, I know who he is. Had 'Forever' in my iPod for longer than I'd like to admit.

Just wanted to find out what he got sentenced to after punching Rihanna.

Precious prick's deleted his Twatter account, hasn't he?

Must admit I never even vaguely thought it was racism. If anything it's "worthless piece of ****ism".

As a serious point, I don't think we can compare wife-beaters from the pre-digital age with those from the post.

I reckon if Gazza's or Lennon's respective other-halves had posted pics of themselves after they just had the seventh bell of schisse smacked out of them on Twatter the blogosphere would've rounded on them too.

Well I suppose Gazza was revered for what he was capable of before going into complete meltdown (of which the wife beating was a sad, sad low in a pityfull disintergration)


Chris Brown, well, I'd heard the name, I'd avoided the music anyway, so I don't particularly hold fond memories of the man he was.

I've always considered violence against women to be as low as you can get, violence against small children apart, and indeed I still do, but I have had to have a bit of a rethink after some of the behaviour of the most recent Mrs Fertang - I have a very long fuse, and there's absolutely no question but that I wouldn't stoop so low as to give her a sharp right hook under any circumstances, but **** me I can't help but think sometimes it would be richly deserved

Tangy and his failed marriages. Would be an addition to War and Peace. :laugh:

Chris Brown is an arse for what he did and should have received a much sterner punishment
