Chris Brown Will Serve Hard Labor
The sentencing of Chris Brown happened today. Rihanna was prepared to testify against Chris Brown if called upon, but his guilty plea sealed the deal. It was unsure if he would but because he did it seems that he will not have to serve any time in prison.
Chris Brown heads into courtroom - June 22, 2009
The verdict as deemed by the judge was 180 days of hard labor, travel restrictions, restraining no contact orders, and all the other perks associated with becoming a felon. Like not being allowed to own a gun, subject to searches without a warrant, etc…
In a popular poll from TMZ.com is seems that the majority of people believed that the verdict was fair. Personally I would have rather served the jail time. Yeah the food is bad but maybe I’d be able to catch up on some reading. Instead, Chris Brown will have to spend 180 – 8 hour days washing fire trucks, pulling weeds and picking up trash in city parks. Community service probably is the way to go though. Cleaning up the town is better for everyone rather than having him eat up tax payers money in prison.

I was always told that verbal abuse was just as bad as physical abuse because bruises heal but mental bruises can last forever. It is in no way right to physically abuse a woman… but, is it ok for a woman to verbally abuse a man. Not every man has the patience, intelligence or personality to look past what a woman says in the heat of an argument. You cannot speak to a man like a man and not expect him to treat you like a man. Again, putting your hands on anyone is wrong, but in the same light verbally abusing anyone is just as wrong.
