Chris Brown is reportedly paranoid in the wake of credible death threats and has become obsessed with his security, according to a report published in the Chicago Sun-Times. He's beefed up his bodyguard detail to include uniformed and plainclothes guards surrounding him at all times, thanks in part to threats from a group that refers to itself as the Woman's Protection Action League.
If you've seen the movie 'I Shot Andy Warhol,' a scenario like this might ring a bell. The good people at Jezebel were quick to identify this purported group as a new version of S.C.U.M. (Society for Cutting Up Men), after a manifesto written by would-be Warhol assassin Valerie Solanas. (You can pick up a copy for yourself for just $11.25!)
I won't tacitly endorse vigilante justice -- I'm not the Mayor of Philadelphia or Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey -- but Chris Brown's PR team didn't do wonders to rehabilitate his image beyond the initial press release. Since then he's been cavalier about the ordeal on the Internet, and hasn't been a stranger to the social circuit, meeting up with buddies for the NBA playoffs. It's not so shocking then that this form of militance might scare him a little bit. He's used the threats to justify the recently alleged assault on a paparazzo who photographed him playing basketball. It might be a good idea to lay low for a while.
Vigilantism would rob us of a far greater spectacle. I mean, who doesn't want to see Chris squirm while facing Rihanna's steely gaze from the witness stand?
