Additional Comments: For what he said to Todd on Friday. I'm a little behind on my viewing, which is the reason for the late post. But I loved his retort to Todd about beating up kids. It's what everyone has been saying on this board, but no one in Llanview has said - until now. So, from the bottom of my heart, Cris, thank you for saying it.

I think it is about time that Dorian evicted Todd from La Brule!

Absolutely. You know, years ago one of my friends got pregnant and the boy went to my friends dad and told him. The man was angry and hurt, but he didn't lay a hand on the kid. Todd went around beating not only Cole, but Marco and the girl as well. Just not right and no way to act. Don't forget, his daughter was involved too. He chooses to see it unrealistically as rape, which it was not! Todd has quite a few screws loose to do and say what he did/does, IMO!

He never beat Langston. Pushed her aside maybe.

Bear, would you settle for manhandling Langston? Because that's what he did. And just because he didn't hit her, it doesn't make his treatment of her right. Wanda

Well, it was better than beating her. She was in his way.

I was mistaken when I said he also beat Langston but I know he just pushed her, HOWEVER, it was still force and he should not have done it. The fact that she 'was in his way' as you put it, means nothing. Poor Todd, every time someone gets in his way he has the right to 'push' them?? Maybe it's me, but the way that I was brought up, that is still being abusive! ///Valerie

Totally agree, Valerie. Wanda

Maybe next time they'll learn not to mess with Todd. I have seen much worse in television than an adult roughing up teenagers.

Miss.Bear, I applaud your defense of Todd, but I still think it's wrong, very wrong. Wanda

What does Chris know? He doesn't have any kids. I'm sure he would do the same thing if he caught his teen daughter in bed with her boyfriend. I could picture that.

Punch the guy once, yeah, I can see Cris doing that. But he wouldn't beat the living cr@p out of a kid like Todd did. Wanda

Plus he but up Marco and roughed up Langston a bit too. Todd had a right to be angry, yes, but he is waaayy over the top and on his way to abusive with underage kids. It's not right under any circumstances, unless Cole was strangling Starr, it was unnecessary roughness! ///Laura

You don't have to have kids to know that some things are just not right - on any planet - even in looney-Todd-land. /eom
