R&B stars Chris Brown and Rihanna are allegedly back together now, but on Grammy night 2009, Chris brown choked Rihanna until she was almost
unconscious and attempted to push her out of a moving car.
Since then, Brown has struggled to remake his image by appearing contrite, but he has also, on at least one occasion, burst into a fit of anger when questioned about the incident.
Brown says he can’t seem to live the 2009 incident down, and he may be right, since white students are now dressing in black face to parody the abusive incident.
Three white students at Waverly High School in Waverly, New York allegedly wore blackface as they reenacted the domestic violence incident between Chris Brown and Rihanna at a pep rally, according to a CNN iReport.
Some observers of the parody say it was racist, but is it racist to re-enact a real-life event? Is it racist? Sexist? Or just in bad taste?
The question parents should be asking is what does a 2009 domestic violence incident have to do with educating their children? It would seem that the students at this high school would have more important things to do than re-enact moments of domestic violence. And was this nonsense approved by the teachers or any other adults at the school?
Domestic violence isn’t something that should be taken lightly. It isn’t a joke. But neither is the value of a good education. Looking at these images, it’s no surprise that students in other countries are running circles around America’s children in science and math.

wtf?! i am througly disgusted by what Chris Brown did to Rhianna that night. but I seriously think this parody is irrelevant. i am certain that these students could give a rat’s a*s about Rhianna’s welfare. they just wanted to employ the racist tactic of ‘blackface’. and they wanted any excuse to do so.

These Young fools under 30 Minds are all twisted up like Pretzel,this is not a Joke you let some Crazy MF jump on you like a Matress & see if it’s funny after That! Whites always want to cross the line with People of Color! Some of these people are like an ole loyal Hound Dog to Crackers! Just look around Work or Anywhere! Asians eat out PeckerWoods a***s Hispanics as well,I met a Mexican Guy who told me he was not an Indio “Indian” but a Spaniard because he said that the Indians were Ugly? Stop tearing yourself up & judging from White Standards of Beauty! His people were Conquered by the Spaniards you Dipshit! A BraindeadNegro still talking about Prophet Isa(Jesus) was a Jew & a Cracker,when he called these so-called Jews Devils! He was not one of them! The Jews Killed a lot of Prophets & Jesus was sent to them,The Rebellious House of Israel not you Negro! When you see what they did to Our Brother Prophet Isa(Jesus) we should know without a Doubt who he was He was of the Lineage of David Solomon Yusef(Josef) Jesus there’s your family tree of Prophet! Jesus of Nazareth was the Last Prophet to the White Race! Prophet Muhammad died of a Broken Heart because he could not Convert his own Whites to Islam! They are that Beast in Revelations in Human form but are not Human He is the Devil! His history bears witness to who he is & always was 666 they only a little of 6,000 years old ! The Blackman’s number is on 6 as well because it’s been 66 Trillion years we knew who Allah was & could take our problems to him Directly! The Original man became disrespectful so Allah hid himself to keep from Destroying all of Humanity

Domestic violence is no JOKE. But we cant have it one way, if black actors, comedians, praise dancers etc. can paint their faces. Chris and Rhianna will always be a target until they are happily married in their 90′s or one is dead and the other in jail in their 20′s.

THE REASON WHY IT IS RACIST IS BECAUSE WHITE RACIST NEVER WANT TO BE
ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR MISHAPS IN THEIR OWN RACE.FOR AN EXAMPLE
WHEN CHARLIE SHEEN TRIED TO CHOKE THE h**l OUT OF HIS WIFE,AND
WHILE DOING DRUGS AND A WHOLE BUNCH OF OTHER STUFF HE GOT AWAY
WITH,AND THE WHITE FEMALE WOMEN IN THE MEDIA COULD NOT BELIVE
HOW HE WAS GETTING AWAY WITH IT AND HIS RATEINGS BECAME SO
HIGH BECAUSE THEM WHITEBOYS SUPPORTED HIM THROUGH RATEINGS,
T.V.AND SOCIALLLY NO MATTER WHAT HE DID TO A WOMAN,SO ALL YOU
BLACK RACIST ON THIS FORUM,CAN YOU SEE THE RACIST HYPOCRITAL
STAND THAT THE WHITES HAVE WITH CHARLIE SHEEN(WHITE MALE{ AND
CHRIS BROWN.ONE OF THE REAL PROBLEMS I BELIEVE IS THAT WHITES FELT
THAT RHIANNA BELONGED TO THEM,AS IF SHE WAS A WHITE GIRL AND THEY
ARE RETALIATEING THIS WAY TO DISCOURAGE CHRIS BROWN SALES WHICH
IS ALMOST TOTALLY SUPPORTED BY BLACKWOMEN IN WHICH THEY DONT
REALIZE.SO F…. THE BLACK RACIST,AND F…. THE WHITE RACIST.

Look everywhere around you and you will find that everyone is insane to some degree and on different subjects. Most people will not admit that they have some serious problems about one thing or another, some are simply oblivious to their negative psychological status and many are in complete denial!
Our mental problems show up in the strangest ways, and some people use alcohol, drugs, smoking, food, and forms of accumulation and hoarding, etc, to self medicate for the psychological problems they don’t realize or understand exist.
As for Rihanna. When two otherwise loving people resort to verbal and physical abuse, they are showing their minute signs of dementia. When students in a school resort to portraying others negatively and in racist tones they are showing bits of their dementia.
Everyone is crazy..We only need to pinpoint what levels and forms these mental problems present themselves.

When will Chris mature or does he enjoy the role of being a thug?He definitely has talent,kids look up to him and want to emulate him but the thug role is the wrong role.

Of course it is in poor taste, possibly racist and sexist as well. On the other hand, what can one expect when one places personal relationships on public display? It seems that these days the only role models the media portray of Black people are entertainers, young, hip-hop, rapping puppets of the mainstream media.
And granted, this has nothing to do with the education of White students, except to perpetuate the racist culture that is endemic to this society. That said, we can create better models of behavior than to showcase the neurotic behavior of two young, unfortunately, unaware people. Tragic but not at all surprising.
