Chris Brown Starts Community Service [Video]
Brown gets "punished."
Mr. Chris Brown is finally putting in his dues. Sort of. The 20 year-old R&B singer was photographed and filmed while chopping weeds and hauling metal the other day, all as part of his community service after assaulting his former girlfriend, Rihanna.
Brown is working up a sweat under the Richmond, Virginia, sun, where he is just getting started on the 180 days worth of community service he must complete. Other than labor, Brown was placed on five year's probation and must not go anywhere near Rihanna. He also has to attend domestic abuse counseling.
Extra security has been enforced because of Brown's star status, which means more man-hours used to keep papparazzi and fans from interfering. But don't worry, this won't be part of our tax bill. A spokesman for the Richmond Police Dept. said all costs are being kept track of and Brown will have to pay the entire bill.
So what do you think? Is this good enough punishment for threatening to kill hid girlfriend? Sure, he looks like he's getting in some good work, but is that a Mickey D's bag he's munching out of?
Let's just hope the kid learns his lesson and doesn't try to beat up anymore women. We wouldn't want to make him have to rake leaves again.
