Would Ashanti Call Cops on Abuser? -- "I Dunno"

16. This whole culture needs a complete rewrite. Russell Simmons and hip hop prison life glorification in song and dress has gone to too many of this Culture and Races heads...It is never right for any man, any color to hit or strike or abuse a woman.

Period. Sing of it, Write of it, Dress of it, but please pull yourselves out of the 90's and early 2000's OK to be abusive to women..B and H words and N words and the rest of the nonsense.

Black men, go home and hit a punching bag but dont kick the dog or beat the wife? PETA and the PO-leese will come for you if you do.

17. I say everyone needs to use madea's way to handle a man who is actin crazy...get yourself a good pot of boilin grits thats step one...if that dont work step 2 get a big old iron fryin pan and just think of the possibilities that these two therapies would work just fine to rehabiliate a man.

19. This is the same bitch that did a video of herself killing her boyfriend because he was cheating..she obviously has no respect for the subject of domestic violence.
she still hasn't she learned when just not to talk..like answering that question..you should of kept your mouth shut hunny go back to being irrelevant! PLUS Rihanna wasn't even the one who called the cops!

20. R&B and black celebrities have alot of secrets. There is some kind of a code. The only reason they will get on RIhanna bandwagon is because the public seems to be generally against chris brown. Ashanti isn't anybody anyways who cares.

23. Women need to unite and stop putting up with such crap! She doesn't know if she would call the cops? WTF? You have got to be kidding! Ashanti or whatever the hell her name is as ZERO RESPECT for her self. Pathetic.

24. Irresonsible Media- No one comes out the womb an abuser. Chris Brown saw his step dad beat his mom bloody (words from his own mouth) hence the repeated pattern. What did Rhianna grow up with that led her to be abusive to her brother (if thats even true) and make her stay with a guy who beat her? She learned the pattern somewhere. REGARDLESS IT IS NEVER OK TO HIT!!! Not a man hitting a woman or vice versa. As far as the story being one sided? Sure she may have started the fight, she may have called him every name in the book but IT DOESNT MATTER! A REAL MAN would walk away. Only total cowards beat people be it women or children.

25. I don't want to sound racist but seriously, I have noticed all these celebrities on TMZ that get asked about this situation are black and yet they don't take stand against the violence. They're just like "Well, that's too bad". What??? A woman was assaulted yet all these black people don't really say anything about it. I guess they're the reason the "no snitching" policy is still in effect in their neigborhoods.

26. 15. I personally wouldn't call the cops on a dude that put his hands on me....The 1st call I'd make is to one of my 6 brothers. They could do more damage than the law can. I'd get them 2 beat the balls off dude. Alot of ppl wouldn't agree with what I've just posted, but I'm saying what I would do in that situation!!!

----------------------------

So you now your brothers go to jail instead of your man? Interesting.

27. That was a very stupid comment by ashanti . I'm glad Rihanna had enough sense to press charges I don't care if a woman or man get injuries or not from a domestic violence situation the person who inflicted those injuries should go to jail. Rihanna did the right thing by pressing charges and I knew this wasn't the first time this has happened between those two. It starts off ALWAYS with little warning signs you just don't flip out suddenly that brutally and say this was the first time. Chris Brown hasn't released a statement or anything I can imagine how's she is feeling because I experienced the same thing when I was 17 I know Rihanna will come back much stronger and I'm praying for her and her family as well. you would think someone who wrote a song about domestic violence (ASHANTI) would have said something that actually made sense to the many countless victims who names and faces are unknown who made be reading this.

28. I just want to say that domestic violence affects women of all races and income levels. It's not justy black women!!! And MOST women do NOT call the cops. Borading your thinking people.

30. FUNNY HOW PEOPLE CAN QUESTION THE VAILIDITY OF RIHANNA HITTING HER BROTHER IN THE HEAD WITH A BOTLE BUT WILL NOT TAKE THE TIME TO "INVESTIGATE" WHAT IS BENG SAID ABOUT CHRIS BROWN, I.E. THE FACEBOOK STORY IS A LIE, AN IMPOSTER CREATED THAT NEW PAGE. YOU CAN CHECK RIHANNA'S INTERVIEW WITH COMPLEX MAGAZINE. I NORMALLY DON'T BLOG ABOUT THESE THINGS BUT I'M REALLY TIRED OF THE BIASED STORIES AND INACCURATE COMENTARY...
