I'm serious. I don't understand why the strong should be handicapped by their strength; it's part of that whole Christian worship of weakness I don't understand.

I've been learning about this in my sociology class, "defining the situation"
While it may seem like horrendous event when viewed outside of that social structure(especially from a news outlet intent on villainizing Reese) to the people in the video and locals of that area, it was probably commonplace. Both Reese and the girl seemed comfortable with using violence, and if the video is the only indicator, the girl did strike first. To me,the post-fight stomping of her body seemed especially cruel, however, to the people in the video it almost went unnoticed, people are still texting on their phone and didn't seem particularly intent on doing anything about it. What I'm trying to reiterate is this is common place in certain neighborhoods, with the locals not viewing it in the same context as us. Is it wrong? Probably.Did rhianna take chris brown back after he beat the **** out of her? Yes |

Everyone has their own set of commandments or rules how they want to be treated. From the video you can tell his was 1. Don't disrespect me with a nasty attitude. 2. Don't touch me. And how does he react when those rules are broken? He starts punching and kicking her - and not just one or two punches but really he gives her a beating - like a lunatic. What he did to her is disproportionate to the slap on the face he received from her. You can take from the video he thinks along the lines "you can't do this to me, but I can do anything I want to you" it shows a double standard for how he wants to be treated and how he treats others. You really can't say "that whole Christian worship of weakness " that is a misunderstanding of Christianity. If a person is strong he should not behave in a selfish manner and use his strength or injure or destroy another person with malicious intent - that has nothing to do with strength/weakness but personal responsibility to act like a decent human being. To quote Stan Lee "With great power there must also come ... great responsibility!" |
