Queen Latifah’s unfortunate choice of words on Chris Brown: “We can’t keep beating him up”

This is the Queen Latifah I know, love, and grew up with:

This is not [on Chris Brown]:

The guy is a young guy and he made a big mistake and he needs to bounce back from that. And he needs an opportunity for a second chance…We can’t condemn that kid. He’s a kid and he needs to correct the mistake for the future, not live in the past…He needs to be forgiven. Enough already. We can’t keep beating him up.

So much for unity, huh? What happened to putting “his ass in handcuffs” and a “man don’t really love you if he hits you”?
