Terri's attacker had legitimate reason to attack...she said, “I wasn’t cool with Simon Cowell choking Paula Abdul on the show last week and with her crying-out ‘help’ as he did so. Nobody said anything about that so I wanted to confront him about it because that is not appropriate behavior, is it? She was taking some photographs with her camera and I knew she was his girlfriend so I went up to her to tell her how I felt. We started arguing and then I put my hands around her neck and started choking her just like Simon had done with Paula. “Then I walked away and I was tackled by the police but I don’t regret what I did because of what Simon did to Paula, nobody seemed to care about that.”

OMG. I LOVE the justification. "Well...Simon choked Paula last week, so I'll choke Simon's ex-girlfriend this week." It's like the old pot commercials..."I learned it from watching you Dad!"
