Here at Mammakaze, there are two things we simply cannot abide…people who hurt children and guys who beat up women. ZERO TOLERANCE. I don’t even want to tell you what we think should happen to those folks because this is a family friendly blog (generally, anyway)… suffice it to say – Hammurabi would approve

So you have to know how “relieved” we were to hear that CHRIS BROWN finally got his punishment for BEATING THE CRAP out of girlfriend RIHANNA in February. (CLICK HERE to see our previous post on the subject).

Oh yeah. They showed him. Five Years Probation! FIVE YEARS! Oh and some community service and classes in anger management and a partridge in a pear tree! Wow! Now that’s justice, right?

NOT! Probation for beating a woman within an inch of her life?! Are you freakin’ kidding me? Anger management classes he’s gonna sit through wearing his iPod that’s playing some song with lyrics like “Shut your mouth, bitch or I’ll shut it for you” while he texts his friends to see if they want to spend the weekend in Ibiza jet skiing? SCREW THAT!

Just the other day on the Showtime show PENN AND TELLER: BULLSHIT! I saw an OLD GUY who went to jail because he couldn’t afford to maintain his yard in compliance with the CC&R’s of his Homeowner’s Association! This Elderly Guy who is behind on his mortgage which is why he can’t afford lawn care gets jail time and Chris Brown gets NO TIME for nearly strangling a woman to death? For punching her in the face repeatedly with his fist that had a huge ring on it which cut her up?  

Oh wait. The Old Guy was in Florida. We obviously have different ideas about what constitutes a crime here in Los Angeles.

Cases in point: OJ, Robert Blake

Let’s face it. If you’re a celebrity, there’s a different standard of judgment. And you can’t convince me otherwise.

You know what I take solace in? The fact that there’s no way he’s gonna tow the line. Guys like this are animals. That kind of vicious rage isn’t a one time outburst. Five years is a long time to hold it in. Somewhere, sometime it’s gonna come out (unfortunately for his victim, whom we hope lives). At which point, he’ll go to jail. Well, unless the RECORD EXECUTIVES who spoke to the judge on his behalf because they could make money off him because he’s such a basically good guy, come to his defense or orchestrate a cover-up.

Nah. They wouldn’t do that, would they?
