Sadly, media won’t cover the one court most used most often, and for the longest period of time;  family court. 

Misogyny thrives.  See http://www.Familylawcourts.com/badcop.html

I caution women about calling the police for help.

I have seen the results of physical abuse and what follows.  The psyche is amazing.  One minute it is telling you everything is going to be ok and the next you are fighting all the demons of memory and what that slap or punch did to your body.  I am firmly convinced that once a person has physically or emotionally abused - it will happen again.  Therapy may help, anger management is out there but it is so individual and physically abusing someone is unique and hard to control because it is "in the moment"

When you complete the sentence "I’m going to kill you" you have made a serious serious threat and it can’t be taken back.  You can say you are sorry but that threat is always there in memory.  

I think Chris Brown needs a reality check and needs jail time, but I am sure that he won’t get to see the inside of a cell.

I’m just fed up and weary of all the celebrity obsession in the media.  Hollywood has done nothing good for this country in the last 50 or more years.  Our culture is very nearly ruined and most teenagers/young people have their heads filled with useless drivel and don’t even know which party is in power in Congress at any given moment or who the Vice President is.  If anything, stories like this serve to further desensitize young people, who have all seen far too much already.  These stories have become our version of the Christians vs. the lions in the Roman forum—sick entertainment.

The best we could do would be to marginalize and dis-empower all celebrities, particularly on sites such as this that profess to care about the state of women.  Maybe then we could take a serious and sober look at the role of men in our society and how they are getting away with murder due to low or non-existent standards of behavior.  While we are all advocating for Wall St. and the banks to be held accountable, let’s begin to take concrete steps to initiate the accountability process for deadbeat dads, drop-outs, vandals, criminals, and liars in the general populace.  Come up with a creative suggestion for strategy on this front and I will be happy to vote on that one.  This "vote" is rubbish.

Let’s not put blame on Rihanna.  While I’m saddened by her apparent return to a relationship with Chris Brown, let’s save our derision for him.  He’s the disgusting individual we all saw showing no remorse and smiling for the cameras on a jet-ski last weekend.

Robin (Rhianna) is clearly exhibiting the classic reaction of an abused woman.  She is 21.  She can recover.  But she cannot be with this man-child anymore.  The precedent has been set for repeated offences.  And I suspect this was not the first time he behaved violently with her.

And I was furious watching that Coleman character on LKL last night who was saying that her affidavit was likely highly exaggerated since she stayed in the car and continued to talk on the phone to assistants and to text while the alleged beating was going on.   

I think this violent behavior was more usual than we know, given the fact that even after her head was slammed into the window, she stayed in the car. Then she was seriously bitten, and stayed in the car, texting, talking on the phone. This tells me she was USED to this.

How can any man behave this way????especially since he witnessed his own mother’s abuse by her boyfriend.  Classic case of "you live what you learn."

 I pray that she is counselled to move away from his influence in a way that she will not be in harms way. I pray that she doens’t become the next Nicole Simpson. I pray that Chris does not get away with this because he has money. I couldn’t help rolling my eyes seeing Geragos sitting beside him in court.  ’nuff said.
