    An organization called Do Something made a re-enactment video of the Chris Brown/Rihanna dispute. While I appreciate what they are trying to accomplish with this video, I have some issues with it.

    1) The video is based on actual police notes of the conflict. Does Rihanna not deserve any privacy in this matter? I know she is a celebrity and everything they do is televised, blogged about, printed, and discussed, I feel that this is a personal situation that maybe she doesn't want to relive. Over and over and over.

    2) Since this video is based on this specific case... Why did they change the color of the actors? I mean I believe in color blindness to the fullest, but they are basing this on a specific case. It just seems like a no brainer to me. Maybe I'm wrong. (And I'm sure you will tell me your opinion, haha.)

    Watch it here, tell me what you think...
