MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE FANS TO MARCH IN PROTEST OF UNFAIR DEPICTION OF MEDIA



The march, to be held on May 31, will begin at Hyde Park's West Pond and end outside the offices of The Daily Mail.



The newspaper has recently dubbed MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE as a 'suicide cult' band in its coverage of the suicide of 13-year-old emo Hannah Bond. (See link:

Three hundred fans are so far confirmed to march against the British press, of which the organisers from the MCR Buzznet Community in a statement claim The Daily Mail is the 'worst offender'.


Since 2006, the newspaper widely criticised emo and MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE and has recently run general pieces about the dangers of the 'cult'.



Fo Shizzle!



The Beatles influenced the hippies. Marilyn Manson caused high school massacres. Eminem caused gun fights.



And now, My Chemical Romance caused suicides?!?



As quoted, "Some time before her death, Hannah's parents, who live in Kent, noticed scarring on the inside of her wrists.
When they questioned her about it, honest and open as ever, she told them she'd inflicted the wounds herself and that it was part of an emo "initiation ceremony".

Only after her death would they discover how she had secretly chatted online to emo followers all over the world, talking about death and of the "black parade" a place where emos believe they go after they die."


Only after her death? When she told them she inflicted the wounds herself, there are no alarm bells ringing in her parent's head?



She could have gotten therapy. But they blamed it on the music.



Why do everyone have to point their fingers at somebody else whenever there is a problem? Pop culture is inevitable. It is up to the parents, and teachers to educate, or maybe kids nowadays should learn how to be smarter.


But i guess it is just a growing up phase. I still remember locking myself up in the room and blasting Linkin Park to the maximum volume.


To me, music is a form of expression. It influences, but it is up to the individual to percieve it as what it is.



Be smart, dont be a retard. =)



I dont support the march though. Its like doing something stupid to protest against something stupid. But who knows, maybe it does work! Lol..




Thoughts?!?
