Amy Winehouse has been arrested and charged with assault in relation to an incident at a bar in central London. It is alleged that the singer attacked two men punching one and headbutting the other.
This comes on the back of Amy's ongoing erratic behaviour and substance abuse problems. Prior to the assault she was heard to be yelling, "I am a fucking legend..." as she proceeded to smash up the bar in what some witnesses described as the actions of a "violent lunatic".
Winehouse's husband is currently in hospital and Amy has previously admitted to bashing Blake when drunk.
Amy has been previously quoted as saying the following, "I'm not a fighter, but if I am backed against the wall I'll kick the s**t out of anyone. I don't think your ability to fight has anything to do with how big you are. It's to do with how much anger is in you."
So here we go ago folks yes its true, "women can do anything" and Amy Winehouse is proof of that. I really enjoy Amy's music and might even agree that yes indeed she is a legend, but despite that violence is not acceptable regardless of how much talent you have.

Without in anyway wanting to take away from the terrible abuse some women suffer at the hands of extremely violent men I am completely on board with the idea that the issue of domestic violence can and does work both ways between the genders.
I am a firm believer that EVERYONE has a right to defend him or herself if they are being attacked. I teach this to both my son and daughter this. The problem is that the law only looks at the sex of the two people fighting in a DV situation, and arrests him, even if he was only striking back after being struck. This is the view that needs to change. People should be taught not to hit, but if they do hit, then they should expect to be hit back (especially if the person is bigger than them). I also teach this to my children.
Don't hit if you don't want to be hit. And if you are hit, then hit back and defend yourself. The right to security of one's self is a basic human rights.
