i agree everyone needs to back off. no one knows what happen. instead of being judge mental, why not suggest something to help these young people. thank goodness they are young, maybe they can learn from this, and strive to do better

in the absence of the truth coming from both of them, the media wll continue to run the story and speculate on what happened.

I don't think the public is going to back off this story. It's too big. Let's see what happens in court. Innocent until proven guilty, right?

Wrong in this world we are guilty until proven innocent. Because radio stations and other outlets that Chris Brown makes his money from would not pull out of working with him. The stories that are going around most of them are not true.We should support both parties, two wrongs don't make it right. They assulted and did domestic violence on each other.Physically and verbally it is simple as that but we only blame one party.

For Real: Will and Jade you do not speak for all black people their come a time when celebrity voice should not be heard.Celebrities always get off with stupid mess assault incident on a female. Look at Wesley on Halle Berry, Kobe Bryant mess,Chris Brown yeah right I'm saddened, um sorry, I'm human, mistakes happen it will never happen again. A assault is a assault I don't care who the person is. This boy has a problem let the truth be none. A non celebrity man would have the book of Law thrown at him. Who or you guys urging us the back off. You spoke we heard you but Hell No we or not backing off now write a book about that surly you will get paid and female will still be assaulted by a celebrity.

Violence in general can not be acceptable behavior. I agree that this is a personal matter that unless witnessed, should be handled between the law and the two of them. No one wants to believe that this has happened but it should remain private between the two. If Chris did wrong, then he will pay the consequences. If not, they will both learn from the experience. Those who care for both should continue to support the two and pray things will work out for the best. Whatever is meant to will. I'm a firm believer of that. God Bless.
