America Is So Selfish


We all know that Rihanna was allegedly beaten by boyfriend, Chris Brown. We also know that she recently went back to Brown and now she's getting more criticism than he for her decision.

Did America forget that she is still the victim? Everyone is so disappointed and angry that Rihanna went back into an abusive relationship. I've heard comments about her sending bad messages to young girls but my response is "seriously?".

This young woman is victim of a violent crime and all people can talk about is how she's sending the wrong message by going back to her alleged abuser. Has anyone stopped to wonder is she is truly okay? Does she need anything, does she want to be helped? Is anyone supporting her and keeping her grounded?

This kind of situation is already frightening but then for it become national news is even worse.

I choose not to judge Rihanna for her choice to continue her relationship with Brown. It's none of my business and she needs all the support she can get.

Stop thinking about yourself America and think of the people who need our support. :))
