Chris Brown. The world's luckiest Cunt.


Now I am no feminist by any stretch of the imagination, I think people should just play the hand they are dealt and get on with their life. But the other day I was reminded of something, Chris Brown, who had an apparently “Awesome VMA Performance” is still famous! The Phrase “What the fuck” has never been more apt. It literally boggles my mind that a man who beat his then girlfriend (Rihanna) is still allowed on TV without a disclaimer, informing viewers of his prior actions and how his views are likely to offend your ear drums. 


 If anyone, from his mainly female fan base are now reading this thinking “Poor Chris. His life wasn’t easy” or “We're all human we all make mistakes”.  I can happily inform you this wasn’t a one off; remember his This Morning America interview, when after being asked about his restraining order against Rihanna, he trashed his dressing room, smashed a window with a chair, ripped his top off and exited the building! And we can be fairly sure there have been other incidents of this nature that have been kept under wraps.




Obviously Chris Brown himself angers me but what pisses me off to a similar extent is how the general public and celebrities are acting as if none of this has happened, blindly forgiving a man who clearly has severe issues. With the exception of Jay Z (who refused to clap or smile) everyone in the VMA crowd was going wild for Brown’s performance. How has our society reached a point where a man can beat his girlfriend and have stories/pictures publicly released about it and then receive basically no punishment, I’m all for forgiveness but not when the person doesn’t change. I guess my point is, it scares me to think that Chris Brown is now back in the celebrity forefront and being idolised by so many teenagers, when there is clearly something fundimentally wrong with the man.

So the only advice I can offer you is this. Next time you hear or see someone listening to,  playing or purchasing anything Chris Brown, just punch them in the face (whether they're male or female)because apparently no one gives a shit.

He may have Fucked of for Fame and Fortune! But he's still got a point...

Russell Brand recently wrote and article for the Guardian about the Riots in London. It says what I and hopefully many others are thinking.
I to share a similar opinion to that of Mr Brand, I belive that the destruction and devistation caused by members of our Nation is intolerable and in every way wrong but the damage to property is no longer the problem. Although punishment for those involved is neccessary it is now vital we look beyond the destruction caused, and ask, why have people done this? How have we not noticed the varying morality of people within our own country. Some see it as fine to burn people houses, shops and livelehoods to the ground, whilst others selflessly unite to clean up the mess. How can people who are supposidly brought up with the same national education and within the same country hold such different opinions on what is and isn't acceptable. This is the pressing issue and something I don't have the answers to;  but it is something that needs to be considered.
