This is so retarded. First off, I don't know how people made the leap from Emo (short for emotive, not emotional) to the all black-wearing, androgynous creatures that seem to be labeled as such these days. My personal opinion about this 'witch hunt' is that it's all just a conquest for self worth. What better way to gain self worth than to hunt down someone who views them self as worthless and as such won't fight back? Of course they would never go after metal heads, because we would fight back--and win.

I think that this Emo-Hunt is simply scandalous. I'm not an emo fan myself... But like Selken said, its not our right to hurt them nor criticise their music taste or lifestyle. What does it really do to us anyways ? I say listen to your stuff, do your stuff and if you don't like what the other's backyard looks like... just don't look at it !! Sincerely I don't much like my French Teacher's hair-style (Really its horrific) doesn't mean Ima go punch her face -_-

everyone hates people who are different. they don't like things they can't understand. some people just take it to extremes.
Exactly. These attacks/murders from "anti-emos" are really no different to bigots who use violence against people of different races, sexuality, religion, etc. I also think in some cases, it's borne out of the attacker's own insecurities. In any case, attacking anyone who isnt doing any harm, just because you dont like their "lifestyle" is moronic and mindless in the extreme. Intolerance usually goes hand in hand with lack of intelligence.

Agreed. The vast majority of people are like that. Even if most wouldnt actually kill someone for that, the prejudice is still there.

Thanx.
He was awesome! I got his name from one of my fave movies, Gremlins. xD Ive got another cat now who is beautiful. Gizmo will always have an extra special place in my heart though, cos he was my first kitty, and he was there for me through some very rough times. <3

Agreed. This just about sums everything up for me. It comforts me when I look at threads like this and see that I'm definitely not the only person with some sense in this world

What does everyone think of this? http://www.classicrockmagazine.com/news/sophie-lancaster-campaign-gets-police-support/ I suppose it's not only for emos but relates to the original topic of violence due to intolerance just because someone has a darker sense of fashion and taste in music.
I'm glad to see that it means society is becoming more tolerant of those who identify with alternative subcultures but comparing attacks against them to "hate crime" seems a bit too ultraliberal for my liking...

Hate crime are basically motivated by intolerance toward someone's identity, origin or social group.*
I'd say that fits.
*Yes, I narrowed it down to 3 from social groups including (but not limited to): gender, race, national or ethnic origin, language, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, mental or physical disability. I'm sure there are more.
