Yeah this is crazy but the headline does make you laugh. This is not a typical case of domestic violence this is attempted murder. Ironic her name is Rihanna but why was she so nonchalent about it? I am glad she is ok but it's not that hard to do a background check on a potential mate. We screen our dentists, doctors and child care providers.

Hmmm... Maybe they should start making body armor out of weave fiber instead of Klevlar. It's the more economical, and fashionable choice. ;-) Michaels last blog post..Appreciate The Woman In Your Life

You all know this is truly BS. There is more to this story. Just reading the various reports news outlets around the country (all worded differently), I can deduce that since he was firing the weapon from the back of the vehicle, the bullet lost momentum both when it crashed through the back glass and through the headrest. There have been numerous documented cases of individuals being rushed into emergency rooms and a bullet being found on the stretcher. This incident is being publicized surreptitiously to embarass black women. Weave instead of kevlar...yeah right!
