I know everyone likes a hero versus villain story, but no one wants to question that incredibly biased story that ignored the fact that the "hero" actually attacked first for no reason and the "villain" tried to leave and only retaliated after said "hero" made a jab at my dead brother? No? George makes a (huge) mistake but that's all anyone cares about? Cool.

So, do you remember last week when you asked me if I'd tell you if I was pregnant again and I didn't answer the question?[Private: Patrick Brindley]

Are you proud of yourself?

	So you decide to trash me based on a situation you weren't involved in? You're as bad as the media if you're going to talk about shit from a one-sided perspective. I already talked to your brother. He's a big boy and can deal with his own problems. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You'll notice that's exactly what I didn't do if you actually read what I wrote, all I said was what actually happened. If I got something wrong then set me straight, but don't tell me I said shit I didn't say. Cool, now you're talking to someone who doesn't want to see his life ruined because of something you did.

Oh? Were you there? I didn't make a 'jab' at your dead brother. I brought him up, true, but I have also already apologized for doing so.

I can't control what the media does, especially Heidi. That much should be abundantly clear. What I do know is that you have no room to talk about any of this. All of your information is biased and second-hand at best. Besides, I doubt you're here for a civil conversation about the morality of what happened between your brother and I. So if all you have to tell me is that I'm the "villain" of this story, you can take it somewhere else. I already know.

Fine. Jab was the wrong word. The point was you pushed the ONE BUTTON he has and he's been made out to be an animal because that's all they focused on. None of that changes that the whole thing wouldn't have happened if you hadn't hit him first.

You don't control the media, but by refusing to call them out, you're silently agreeing that their version is accurate. If my biased, second-hand information is wrong, set me and everyone else straight. Don't come in here and tell me I don't know what I'm talking about just because it makes you look bad. At this point, I've heard only two versions and I didn't even need to hear the second before I knew the first was a load of shit.

I'm not trying to make you the villain. I'm trying to keep my brother from being seen as a monster.

What makes you think I wasn't planning to? Instead of yelling about it over the journals, I've already told Heidi what actually happened and I contacted my PR agent about doing a press release so that the statement of what happened was official, but I guess that's a moot point now. I know what I did and I know it wasn't right, but you have no place to call me out. If your brother had done so, I would understand. You have no right to pull this shit.

You've chosen to put a story out there that you can't be completely sure is accurate. You should have come to me first. I would have told you what my plans were. Your input is not helpful or appreciated and, in the long run, you have made things worse.

So, congratulations, I guess.
