DISCUSSION
I don't quite get the snark about Chris Brown. So, he's publicly acknowledging he's finished the course, he's proud of that, and he feels like he's learned something.
I mean, isn't that why we court-order such courses? Because we believe people will learn from them? We think they will actually teach people how to manage their anger and not respond with violence?
Of course, we don't know if it's worked, but... I just don't think he needs to defend being proud of trying to get on the right track.
That's something to be encouraged, which can be done while still recognizing the pain he caused.
