However hurtful it is to the families of Lizanne Crichlow and Adrian ALvin Kirton, it can never be undone that these two young lives are entangled in death and life to this misery. Adrian Alvin Kirton is going to be always remembered as the killer of Lizanne Crichlow, which is something both families have to live with. But as a society don't lose sight of the need to keep young people out of these situations. UTILIZE THIS MAN'S ATTEMPT TO CHANGE. IF SOCIETY DOES NOT INSTITUTE ENOUGH MEASURES TO STEER YOUNG PEOPLE IN A POSITIVE DIRECTION WE CAN LOSE OUT ON THE POTENTIAL OF SOME. PROBLEMS WITH ANGER IS NOT PASSED ON FROM PARENTS IN IT SELF. WE HAVE TO RECOGNIZE THAT ANGER IS A SPIRITUAL MALADY THAT SOMETIMES NEEDS TO BE DEALT WITH IN PEOPLE'S LIVES FROM CHILDHOOD INTO ADULTHOOD. This crime committed when Mr. Kirton was 17 years of age, indicates a serious childhood issue for him. Make sure that your anger as a society does not prevent you from utilizing his chance to reform. Now that he has returned to his mum. He needs to try to give of himself to the Crichlow family. I suggest that if Mr. Kirton reads this that he please set aside a portion of his proceeds from his work that sells, to set up a scholarship in the name of Lizanne Crichlow that someone who is struggling to get an education can do so in her name. That he recognize her lose to her family and society with this gesture. If there is anyway that they have forgiven him. He can for the sake of his own good, continue to be a law abiding citizen. PREVENTION IS STILL BETTER THAN CURE SO THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER SUCH TRAGEDY TO HIS NAME. LET HIM MAKE A GOOD NAME FOR HIMSELF NOW. Mr. Kirton can help change other young folks from making his mistake. Study his mistake that he can teach others. He has still a long road ahead, and can have a hand in someone's need for help. PERHAPS IF HE HAD HIS TALENT FOR ART IN HIS YOUTH IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN HIS CURE. He can do a lot now. He can teach art to young juveniles that are in rehabilitation. ART IS GOOD THERAPY IT CAN HELP A PERSON GET INTO THEIR DEEPER THOUGHTS AND SELF. Let him get this second chance to be a better citizen.

TOUGH TALKERS WITH NO COMMON SENSE
Enough of the garbage, put some humanity out here. STOP HIDING THE MEN BEHIND THE WOMEN VICTIMS. Rihanna has been in the Lion's Den since she left Barbados at age 16 without committed parents at her side or any other responsible intelligent Bajan male and female participants that would care about how she would be handled in America. The crew that Mr. Evans led her to have struggled with thug life in America and got their piece of pie while some of their players got killed in each others territories, in New York and Hollywood, which has always been a Lion's Den, namely for 2pac Shakur and Biggie Smalls. Violence is violence. Most of the disappointed individuals of all ages have not looked at this situation in totallity. I can't imagine WHAT INFORMED INTELLIGENT CONVERSATION IS MISSING FROM ALL OF THIS Rihanna Blame Game. The media DOMINATED by MEN and yesterdays feminist turned Power players SPOKESPERSONS HAVE TURNED ALL ATTENTION AWAY FROM THE ISSUE THAT WE NEED TO HELP OUR YOUNG MALES STOP THE VIOLENCE. No one THINKS CHRIS BROWN SHOULD BE A SPOKESMAN AGAINST DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, INSPITE OF THE FACT THAT HE STATED HIS SORROW AND DESIRE WITH HELP AND COUNSELLING TO EMERGE A BETTER PERSON. The men and women of the media who like his smile HAS NOT WRITTEN ONE ARTICLE TO ENCOURAGE HIM OR SUPPORT HIM IN THIS ENDEAVOR TO CHANGE. HE WOULD HAVE FAR GREATER IMPACT ON THE YOUNG MEN AND LADIES THAT LOVE HIM SO MUCH, IF HE SPOKE OUT AGAINST IT. He could better SHOW THEM THE MANLY WAY TO CHANGE without feeling like they are displeasing men who like to justify these actions as a she deserved it. Girls and women have liked Chris Brown's smile and his dancing up on them. That's true. But will they let him be a man that takes responsibility for what he has done wrong. I HOPE SO. Oprah did a show to tackle ABUSE from men who are doing the role of speaking out against abuse as former abusers. They laid down the steps needed to bring this problem to the solving table. The grandmother, the granddaughter, the Bajan psychologist, Dr. Myrna Lashley, Ms. Rhonda Taylor Schools Superindendent in Brooklyn, their comments make me wonder what kind of education they all have on this topic. THEY ALL MISSED THE MARK. Many women who left still were pursued and murdered. The abusers need help and mandated evaluations that lead to constructive 12 step programs like that for alcoholics assigned from medical and legal authors. Ms Pirro, and all of these media high paid spokespeople protect their incomes from supporters who are MALES PULLING THEIR STRINGS. Why is it NO TALK ABOUT HELPING YOUNG MEN IS FOCUSED ON. Courts can put them in jail with a venegance, they come out, go on to another woman, another victim with no help for their problem. Children in schools that live out these problems with their DAD and MOM, which does more diluting and confusing, because they want they parents to be together like RUMORS TOLD OF Chris Brown and Rihanna. They too are dying for this kind of dialog to help both parents. DAW! To the buyers that say they will never buy another Rihanna record who cares. If you were watching the videos and listened to the songs maybe you would not have bought it. She is a great talent; she has a lovely voice. She deserved better. The music industry, hollywood and the whole environment changes peoples lives. The stars have to learn to walk fast and shun a lot of people they could once make time for. Their lives are not fully their own due to the over exposure to so many people that know them that they cannot ever know. There is too much of other powerful entities controlling that success. Ms. Pirro who is a lawyer knows what contracts and breaching them can mean. Get some intelligent talkers don't just play with Rihanna's life. The comments to Rihanna's situation are heart wrenching and drenched with meanness. I have read some that showed truth and understanding. Both of these voices seems pushed aside with the downers and fair weather friends. I do wish the people of Barbados well and hope that they will look at Rihanna with love and understanding. YOU ALL ARE SHAMING YOURSELVES. Dr. Lashly should be informed not to be a mass media spokesperson of destruction with words only that have deemed Rihanna a negative poster child. And, Dr. Lashly a negative force against an abused inexperienced child trying to be a woman, with little help from the right people where ever they're at. Love and peace.

Nation News - Relationships and Violence, Domestic Violence: a global conversation
The Rihanna and Chris Brown debacle, February 8 and 9.
Reaping: "Domestic Violence: A Global Conversation," (c) 2009 Essay Course comments by Itha Alleyne, for The J.D. Home Schooling Program, Poems a La Carte, for: "Africans Abroad,"(c) 1980/2009 a work-in-progress;
The www.nationnews.com - Barbados' leading daily newspaper.
Rihanna "alone" on the Town : 3/21/2009 Rihanna "you are not alone," domestic violence is a global conversation that spans all time, it is a historical continuous problem in this world. It is a hate crime that comes from self-hatred disguised as a product of a love relationship. Both Chris Brown and Rihanna began there careers at the tender age of 16. Both exposed to adults that may have acted unprofessionally toward them, as rumors may suggest. Hopefully what the folks in Barbados will take from this is that U.S.A. is a culture that is unlike that in Barbados. The close openness of our society is vastly different than the anonymous closed door, you can do whatever you want to do, here in the states. Jealousy is a big part of someone battering a person's face. Chris Brown could also be sued because Rihanna makes her living from her face and her beauty as a Cover Girl Make-up model, from this alleged battery he has publicly stated sorrow about and hopes to emerge a better person with help and counselling. The facts concerning the legal reasons Rihanna had to return to the United States is greatly responsible for her seemingly returning to Chris Brown. She for better and/or for worse is legally contracted to the record company and the songwriting contract that Chris Brown has her tied to. He has written songs on her albums. Mr. Evan (Rogers) that is credited as the one who led her straight to The Def Jam may not have known that she is a great talent and maybe needed a different type of record label that could have made better use of her talent and her cross-over appeal. The videos of Rihanna look like she is a victim also of some form of ill. I can't imagine that she had to be marketed this way, as in the disturbia video. Hopefully these videos are not just a reflection of the way she was being treated all along and then videos feed to the public as artistic product. As in one video she is introduced by JayZ as "Little Miss Sunshine," "Ho" which then leads into this beautful voice she has. It hurts to see this kind of continued abuse of women in media in general, and especially knowing that there are young girls and boys that are trafficked as sex slaves in some parts of the world. These video and/or perssonal events in Rihanna's life is an Angel of the Lord, situation that will lead her life toward a better day. For Whatever is intended for our evil God does make for all our Good. If Chris Brown admits to the abuse and publicly shows himself working at a long term effort and speaks out to other young men and women and let them know that it is not a favor that they do for anyone when they do not commit violence. But, that it is an opportunity they give to themselves to live a happy and trouble free life out of a jail, then he will be a better person. If Rihanna can continue to be the loving Woman that she is, that has survived the abuse and that can love them that dispitefully use you and pray for them that abuse you. She will be a better person. She has done what is the reality of women who have gone through what she has gone through. Rihanna needed her father or mother to have come with her to the United States when she was 16 and stick with her throughout all her dealings with the power brokers that make their living making these stars. She deserved better than what has happened to her and her family. She needed her Dad to be there for her. Beyonce whom is the predecessor to that "Good Girl Gone Bad," scenario has her father and her mother in her life, managing with the managers. Rihanna's career as a young girl was shaped with the junk they couldn't put into Beyonce's career. The videos represent an image of dressing up edgey which is not as serious by itself, but coupled with the idea that the video is just what has happened is serious. Rihanna is our Ambassador of Good Will. She represents our country, our culture and our strong Christian practices. Stand by her, support her, call her home to her royal duty, uplift her from this hurt that she, Robin Rihanna Fenty has gone through. She came to the U.S.A. a little girl who likes fashion, dress-up and music. She could not have known that she was entering into a business that would only want to present her in a manner that reflects what is sometimes done to innocent individuals on cameras, behind closed doors and other people's influence of fantasy. For future reference Barbados get your own music industry together who have a successful international group known as the Merry Men utilize all of your natural resources, and remember we are all Barbadians that are born Barbadian. Come together and move forward. Don't turn your talented children over to an industry and people who you do not know or understand what their business is about. Children must be treated like pearls that are cast in a world that does have swine in it. Though we cannot prevent everything bad that may happen to children in this world, we can at least make the best effort to help those that need good people to come to their aid. Help Rihanna find her higher calling from this event. Our politicians need to recognize the value of her star power and lend her a hand and stand up against the neglect of young men and women, teens who need guidance and the right understanding about the use of violence in any domestic form.

IGNORANCE IS BLISS : 3/24/2009 When you are laughing the whole world laughs with you, when you are crying no one wants to cry with you. The shame will be on Barbados as the dialog is against this child of Barbados and her mistakes, rather than on proactive measures against violence, which some others in Barbados maybe living with and have no place to run from home to. If Chris Brown hadn't publicly been caught in this alleged abuse of Rihanna, or Ri, Ri as affectionately known, the few outspoken Sad Bajan folks didn't care to know about whether that child Rihanna was seeing good or bad as long as we; the world could be ignorant about these terrible things. You celebrated her 2008 Feb 20 birthday with "Rihanna Day." You all were proud to have produced such a beauty with such a great intellect and talent. You didn't care about how long she stood at school. You enjoyed the status her success brought Barbados just as much as you think she has. It is better to be in the house of mourning than the house of Joy. Especially when your joy maybe derived from the evil that is done to someone behind closed doors. The shame will be that all the critics that want to act like educated Barbadians have never heard of or experienced such terror is just showing foolish pride. Pride cometh before the great fall. Put away this False pride game and get down to the business of dealing with this issue as a global as well as an urgent societial ill that crosses all educational, social and economic levels in most of the civilized world. Chris Brown Came to Barbados, he saw that Rihanna has a people that loved her and backed her and maybe got very jealous. The shame on The the few outspoken Sad Bajans is that their care too late. These Sad Bajans sound like fair weather folk that will eat the dainties of the devil's table as long as none of the crumbs drop on their floor, to make a mess in the house. Wipe your mouths of the remains of the dainties and see if you all can clean up your houses together. Put down your stones and start polishing your glass houses. Remember to Smile, God Loves You.
