While the humor on the pics is funny, I rather find it sad why you would use the picture that shows such a low moment in the life of this man as an avatar. Think twice and pay them man a little bit more respect.

Oh come on. James has been abusing women for decades. With that qualifier, his life is a history of "low moments". It's not as if this is something new, and I don't think he deserves any respect for it. If it was just a bad photo, then I'd say yeah, don't use it, but if it's his fault, I see no problem with disrespecting him.

How has Mr Brown been disrespecting women all his life? He mainly chose women to be with him who were willing to play his game. His last wife Adrienne even was abusing him in their marriage. Before that, he has used women to satisfy his pleasures, and women used him for his fame, power and money. While Tommy Rae, his current wife, is a cool chick, she is definetely in for the money and fame.

If you have "no problem disrespecting him", then you dont know what he has done for black people in America and what he has done for integration and friendship between black and white. And I`m not even mentioning his musical impact. It`s rather sad that today he is just a shadow of his true self, but his image does not deserve to be abused as an avatar like that.

What ARE you talking about? James has been beating women for most of his life, from Tammi Terrell in the '60s to the majority of his wives. He is KNOWN for that. It's like a badge of honour or something. I suppose it makes it OK somehow if "they're using him for money and fame"?

And I am not making fun of his musical achievements or whatever racial harmony he might have created. I am making fun of what he is NOW. I don't believe that we must respect someone for all eternity simply because they accomplished something good in their life. Otherwise, humour would not exist, and most US presidents would still be exalted as gods.

Frightening thought.

Just because he is known for it that doesnt make it reality. Michael Jackson is known for being a child molestor, but he should remain innocent until proven guilty. Nobody really knows what truly happened with Tammi Terrell, and we can`t ask her, cuz she is dead. And that`s not James Brown`s fault.
All I am saying is: If you stay with a man who beats you, dont complain. If you do complain (which I`d understand), leave him. None of these women ever wanted to leave him, Lyn Collins included (who was never beaten by him).


And I am not making fun of his musical achievements or whatever racial harmony he might have created. I am making fun of what he is NOW.

As I have said above, I had a good laugh about the altered Brown images above. But using his face (in this situation) as an avatar that might be posted hundreds of times goes too far. Leave the man some dignity, he is not evil. He is troubled.
