Tila Tequila choked by football star

I'm not a fan of Tila Tequila (actual name: Tila Nguyen) or her MTV programs A Shot At Love With Tila Tequila or its sequel, but that doesn't mean I want her to get hurt. Sadly, it looks like she was allegedly restrained and choked by Shawne Merriman, a linebacker with the San Diego Chargers. Charges have already been pressed.Since she did call and press charges, I'm going to assume this isn't one of those cases of erotic asphyxiation gone wrong and assume Mr. Merriman was (allegedly) trying to prove his manhood somehow. In which case he's a cad and a beast and there are more promising men out there. In fact, since Ms. Nguyen is allegedly bisexual (she claimed to be on her show, but I've always had my doubts about that) she has an even bigger batch of better options to choose from.
Is this going to be another case of Rihanna and Chris Brown? I certainly hope not.
Tila Tequila leaves TV, wants to do "meaningful stuff"

Reality television can breathe a sigh of either relief or disappointment, as Tila Tequila will no longer be amongst their ranks. The star of A Shot At Love With Tila Tequila has decided to move on to "meaningful stuff". Obviously, the nude modeling, the fashion business ventures, the television dating show and the acting and singing wasn't enough.Her exact quote: "I wanna do meaningful stuff. After a while you reach your goals and then what? You just prance around like Paris Hilton all day long and feel like you have to find the next scandal to stay big. This lifestyle is fun and I worked hard for it, but I think in the long run, it's a lot. I just wanna be in love for the rest of my life and move to an island and have kids."
The question is, if she moves to an island and has kids, who would her kids play with? Would the island have schools? What about plumbing facilities? Will the island even have them? It seems to me that Tila Tequila hasn't thought this decision through.
