I apologise for the delay but I feel I've already more than covered this

Anyway on Friday (16/8/13) a Los Angeles Court heard the latest round of
Chris Brown's probation hearings. I've not seen the papers but I gather
that the Court ruled that there was significant reason to believe that
Chris Brown had not completed the roughly 180 days of community service
that he was sentenced to after pleading guilty to the 2009 assault of
Rihanna. However crucially the Court stopped short of ruling that Brown
had committed multiple criminal offences of perverting the course of
justice, fraud and bribing public officials in the course of failing to
complete his sentence. As a result the Court merely sentenced Brown to a
further 1000 hours of community service to be served within California
rather than West Virginia. This would represent an opportunity to
complete his original sentence but unfortunately the Court failed to
reinstate the restraining order keeping Brown away from Rihanna.
Therefore this was Brown's handlers continuing to protect him for the
reasons I explained in my previous post on the subject. The figure of
1000 hours of community to service was chosen because it sounds like a
really big number that makes it look like the Court was being really
tough on Brown although I seem to remember 15+ years in prison adding up
to slightly more than 1000 hours.
Of course Brown's handlers currently seem unable to admit they've made a
terrible mistake. However when they do I suggest that the US Attorney
General's office take on the case to prosecute Brown for the multiple
felonies he has committed across state lines. After all I would hate for
Brown's team to argue that all legal routes have been exhausted.
As for Rihanna she is still in New York on the other side of the US. On
Saturday (17/8/13) she flew down to Miami, US to attend the wrap party
for Jay-Z and Justin Timberlake's ill conceived "Legends of the Summer"
tour. This was of course a long planned stunt intended to show that the
'community containment' of Chris Brown is working although I have to say
that the effort it is taking to make sure that Rihanna can't sleep in
her own bed rather proves that the community is completely failing to
protect Rihanna from Brown.
However for years to come I'm sure that the handlers will claim that it
was all a clever trick to help calm down the situation in Egypt. You see
although I've always been a big fan of a Burn Notice globally Miami is
probably most famous for the US TV Show "CSI:Miami" the theme tune of
which is "Won't Get Fooled Again" by UK band "The Who." With a chorus
talking of "Tipping a hat to the new constitution" and "Taking a file
for the new revolution" you would think that this song perfectly sums up
the Egyptian people's attitude to the government of Morsi's Muslim
Brotherhood. The first verse which talks about "Fighting in the street
with the children at our feet" and "The men who spurred us on sit in
judgement of our wrongs decided the shotgun sounds the song" sounds like
a particular effort to discourage women from joining in with the
anti-government protests. However I think the general tone of the song
is to cynical to be of much use in Egypt. Good job it's only the
handlers bullsh*tting then.
I'm not stoned(!)
