i'll tell you what to not do - knock her the fuck out

nobody asked that you just stand there - thats absurd. but you certainly dont knock her face into the car. thats not self defence anymore.

could you please explain to me how she 'got what she deserved'?

well supposedly she took off her stilettos and began beating him in the head while he was driving, i don't know about you but i wouldn't let any female hit me with that shit. she started it so she got what she needed.

first she 'got what she deserved', now your saying she 'got what she needed'.

could you explain the difference between a want and a need? and how did she 'need' a beating? and how did this beating help rihanna?

made her more than a 1 hit wonder. She's been catapulted up to Whitney Houston fame now.

Not that I'm a big fan of Rihanna but she had several hits other then Umbrella. Just saying.

As for the "she got what she deserved" conversation. I was attacked by a crazy theatre chick once with a nalgene bottle full of water. She smacked me as hard as she could in the temple with it. I went down and she hit me again. I stopped her the third time, took the bottle, and said "hope that was fun".

She got fired. I got respect.

No matter the situation it's just classy to keep yourself in check. Chris Brown fucked up, that's it; pretty simple. His career is over, he made the choice.

If I have a bad temper and have been in some fights in my life thats one thing

I have never hit a woman, I have never threatened a woman with violence, I feel that is next to impossible that I ever would.

I freely admit that I have done things in my life that I could have been in trouble for, but that is NOT the same thing as some criminal hooligan beating up a 120 lbs girl. Brown should be seeing some grey days for what he has done... I think about 3 to 5 of them.
