		<description>I agree with My Poetry completely.  No one who has been accused of such horrible things would be that warm &#38; cuddly with their accusers, even if they were family &#38; he forgave them. The deal went down. A egotistical pedophile got gamed by his own game. Not the kind of justice we were looking to see, but poetic all the same. He'll be paying them for life.
As for some of the comments on this site... I would say Either the pedo is thick as thieves with the owner or his threats are pretty scary.</description>

		<description>MyPoetry,

Chris didn't have the time nor circumstance(s) that the daughter you mentioned had/have. 

Chris did a complete 180* turn in a week; not years. This wasn't Chris' mom (who is a really sweet lady, by the way--not going to even get started on how I know this)  it's his cousins.</description>

		<description>^^^ Our points exactly Mypoetry

If you are as intelligent as you seem to be, you would read into that (video)....I know you did, but being that you have defended Chris Stokes all this time, you took the easy way out like Sandra and simply used this video as a victory, but you and Sandra are not that stupid by a long shot.

oh yeah and this statement:

"( No Homo, double Pause)"

its really not a good look folk, it reads.....I'm a man who has to verify my heterosexual lifestyle as if someone on the internet cares. Just my opinion (no offense, double pause)

Anyhoo, in response to this comment:

"Can we all agree that Raz-B going on youtube to accuse Chris Stokes of molesting him at the same time working on his reality show was a bad idea? Can your pride at least give us that? Huh?"

Can we agree that These are kids groing up in the face of Hollywood who go about things in a different way than the average person (Britney Spears) Youtube hate it or not is the most effective way of communication and exposure now.....sh*t drama has gon' digital in generation X! How else would Soulja Boy get his record deal in less than 2 years (off subject i know, but you get my point). Bottom line RaZ B and Ricky are set for now, and yes financially they are at peace but there is no doubt in my mind mentally they are unstable. Just like Bsoul said being molested as a child brings those type of demons out of you. However that does not change the truth of the matter, regardless of what you think Chris Stokes is disgusting and so are his supporters! Yes SANDRA YOU TOO! Oh yea and i forgot, Incase you were wondering about those comments going around the net stating the sh*t was about to hit the fan........trust me it is..........Raz B, and Ricky already know there are others coming forward....Chris doesn't have enough money to pay them ALL off!</description>

		<description>There are a lot of things people can say because they're mad at you. Accusing your cousin of molestation, there is no room for recovery from that. Chris Stokes should be suing the both of them. Dinner? 

Chris needs to change his name to Father Stokes.</description>

		<description>HERE'S WHAT I SAW ON THENEWURBAN.BLOGSPOT.COM &#38; IT MAKES SENSE TO ME....

Well, kids, I was expecting this, but hoped it wouldn't go down. Last night Chris Stokes, Raz B and Ricky Romance had a nice, quiet, family style dinner, at, notorious, paparazzi swarmed hotspot Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills's agency district. Photo op, much?

Two days ago TNU reported exclusively that the Chris Stokes camp had opted not to take legal action against Raz B and his brother Ricky Romance for their molestation allegations. Why? Maybe it's because you can only claim defamation, when someone's said something that isn't true? Or perhaps because any litigation would have led to all kinds of skeletons getting yanked out of the TUG closet?

As we reported, this matter will be played out entirely in the court of public perception. 

****EXCLUSIVE INFORMATION****

I'm on the phone with my dear friend and top Hollywood publicist, who is probably as close to this situation as one can get without being in the family. She says that Stokes and the Thornton brothers have decided to reach a financial agreement. An agreement that will include "project deals" for both brothers. 

According to her sources Stokes has been physically ill since the allegations of molestation were weighed against him. In fact, several business deals, including a film were jeopardized as a result. "Everyone was coming out of the woodworks, making claims against Chris, and it just wasn't good for business. The reason DeMario and Ricky spoke out in the first place is because Chris had been dissing them for years. He made a lot of promises that he didn't keep, and they brought the ghosts of the past out."

This is a sad, tawdry situation, y'all. No real winners. It seems like both sides decided to take the path of least resistance. For Raz and Ricky pursuing a criminal case against Stokes with only circumstantial evidence (if that), would have been an expensive, uphill battle. And for Stokes, perhaps continuing to pay for silence was the easiest option? It's typical for abuse victims to become "users" when they get older and realize the power behind what they know.

And I guess that's the Hollywood game, kids. Use and get used just the same....

I know what I smell. What do you think? 

Stay tuned... Stay urban...</description>

		<description>Looks like a good ole case of BLACKMAIL 2 me. All Raz &#38; his brother (whatever his name is) had to do was buy Chris a rose from the Rose Man outside to sweeten the deal. LOL! Raz &#38; his brother didn't seem sorry to me, they seemed happy. (Can  u say REDEMPTION!) Why was Chris so nervous &#38; scared to come outside? Cuz he felt like an A**! Now why would anybody take 2 ppl to dinner that "Falsely" accused you of molestation. I mean that's not something you can take lightly &#38; it was around the world. I ain't mad at Raz-B. Whether he went back on  it or not he told it. Once the accusation is out it will always be &#38; when everyone sees Chris we have to think about it.

   That man paid them point blank! I'd be happy as hell too if I just left a "Fuck you pay me 2 keep my mouth shut meeting." For Chris how can he go from, "Oh my lawyer is on this b/c this is serious to "Oh hey hun let's do dinner, Smooches!" Please. Michael Jackson didn't say hey forget the case i'll just take them to dinner &#38; forget my reputation. I don't recall R. Kelly taking Sparkle &#38; her niece to dinner. Chris was the only one looking nervous like he was hiding something. Well...I guess he "Allegedly" fucked some dudes in the past &#38; they indefinately fucked him in the future! 

   Another thing, why was Romeo up there hiding behind the Rose Man??? LMAO...N***a we see u. What the hell was he hiding for, I mean u know u r a celebrity &#38; u know if u meet up wit these dudes then it's bound to be caught on tape or film. Come on now! What u look like on film behind a man's back that's holding roses?? Exactly!</description>

		<description>So where on this video does RazB EVER say he wasn't molested? I'm waiting.....Ricky got the meeting (and money) he asked for and Stokes made sure they were seen together so this video didn't look like the "apology' video. 
This one had to be more authentic. The grin on Stokes' face is transparent. Im amazed that Sandra who normally is on the money can't see this</description>

		<description>Bsoul:

I once heard a story where a  mother was selling her  young daughter's body as a way to cop drugs for their addiction...And after years of hating her mother for this, she finally forgave her. So if she can forgive her mother for letting her get raped over and over again to support her habit, I could fathom forgiving my cousin for falsely accusing me..People makes mistakes, and you're right if we were not family I would tell you to go to hell...But I would forgive you...Not today, not tomorrow, but one day.</description>

		<description>MyPoetry, I would still love my family member(s)---but, from a distance---if they were accused or caught doing something of this nature, but I would NOT stand behind them. Nor, would I let my children be in their presence. No, no , no , no!

Oh, I put your money in the mail. ;^D</description>
