Radio Station Throwing Bash to Destroy Chris Brown CDs and Posters

Rihanna fans are angry over the singer's beating by boyfriend Chris Brown. Lots of people are angry about the way ex-lovers have treated them. And single people are either sad or bummed out about having to endure yet another Valentine's Day of seeing happy luvvy-duvvy couples parading around.

Now Long Island radio station WBLI is channeling those strong emotions into a "Shred Your Ex" bash to destroy Chris Brown CDs and parties.

A notice on WBLI's Web site (see link above) says it expects "thousands" of people to attend the pre-Valentine's event Friday, February 13th at the station's headquarters in West Babylon, Long Island.

"Join Rihanna's Side Or If You're Unlucky In Love! Then Shred Your Ex Right Before Valentine's Day In Nationwide Protest!!!," the notice reads in part. WBLI says it has invited members of Rihanna's fan club and other supporters of the singer to show their allegiance to Rihanna, their displeasure with Brown, or just their disgust with an ex or exes. WBLI says it "wants to bring America together for a common cause."

Did I mention that all this is taking place on Friday the 13th? Man, this could get real ugly...

Rihanna support bash

If the disco record bonfire is the one I think you're talking about, it was at Chicago's Comiskey Park... Disco Demolition Night... a stunt by the famous showman and White Sox owner Bill Veeck. Between the fire and the near-riots that took place, the White Sox had to forfeit the game.

If he really did beat her up the way it seems he did, that's pretty shameful behavior.

If it's bigger than the Death to Disco bonfire, impressive

I think anyone who was older than 5 during the late 70's can remember the giant Death to Disco bonfire (Shea Stadium, wasn't it?). I'm sure Chris Brown is well known to many, but my first reaction to when the story broke was "Chris who?". The only one I know with that name is the rookie running back for the Tennessee Titans and I don't believe he is a music artist on the side. Guys that feel the need to beat up women to feel powerful need to spend some time in prison being Bubba's girlfriend and tossing some salads to learn what it feels like. If this incident with Rihanna increases awareness of that form of abuse, I'm all for it. JOIN XOMBA NOW--DON'T WASTE ANOTHER MINUTE!
