it’s not over. now the Russian goverment is against MCR.

(( I’m sorry guys for not keeping this blog up. I’ll be honest: summer has arrived, and i wanted to leave everything in a corner, to take it back in september (oh and by the way, I didn’t fail the year for now, but i’ve got a super-important maths exam in september, if i don’t pass it, i’ll have to repeat my 3rd year of high school).  Plus, I thought it was over, I mean the MCR-push-kids-to-suicide story. Obviously I didn’t think they (I mean THE WORLD) learnt the lesson, I just thought it was an old story, and the newspapers focused their attention on something else, you know how it works. ))

So, now that i’ve finished the story of my boring school career, I will tell you guys why I’m writing this right now. Here’s the news from the lovely unleash the basts community (thanks to thanku4thevenom @ LJ):
                                                                                      

“The Russian government is in the process of drafting a law to make emo and goth music illegal….The newspaper subsequently reported that, among other things, the draft bill dubbed the musical movements a “dangerous teen trend” and called for emo and goth websites to be regulated and young people dressing like emos or goths to be banned from entering schools and government buildings.”
MCR is being included. Hell, they’re the poster boys. This has gone too far.

Yeah, that’s it, “EMO” music is going to be illegal in Russia, maybe.
What can I say guys? Is like the second chapter of the Hannah Bond story.

They just don’t get that the “emo culture” has been created by the kids, not by the bands.
And, let me say this, those kids who hide their face behind a long fringe, cut themselves for fashion and say they’re “emo” just because they don’t have the balls to be just themselves without any label, they’re not emos. The scientific term is “dickhead“.

Yes, we still have to fight.
Spread the petition! My friend Laura, the girl who made the petitiononline account is in London until the next week, so I’ll try by myself to see if there’s a way to edit the text, because I want to add information about the Russian government thing, and meanwhile I’m trying to get in touch with the Russian MCRmy.
Come on guys, make music ILLEGAL? Everyone’s free to listen to whatever they want.

You know guys, the problem’s not the fact that Russian fans won’t listen to rock music anymore, I mean, they still have the internet. If they can’t purchase the cd (even online), they can always download them.
The problem IS Mychem and many other rock bands (think about it, if they think MCR is emo/goth, they could probably think Simple Plan is death grindcore metal) WILL NEVER play in Russia again!
I mean, what if this happened to you? To Europe, to America?
MCRmy is a big, worldwide family, the band itself considers the whole MCRmy like a family. We share the same passion, the same love for music. And that’s because we have to help each other.

Many people think the law won’t be passed. Well, that’s what we all hope, but that doesn’t mean we don’t have to take action. This time they really crossed the line, I mean why the hell don’t we all get together and stop this MCR-blamig shit?!

(just in case you were wondering, yes, I AM pissed off).

keep the faith,
danielle.

• friday, july 25th edit: so, I just managed to contact a Russian fansite. As I can’t read the language, I need you Russian friends to help me, and link me your national fansites, so that I can get in touch with everyone. Also, me and other fans thought about something…you know, a worldwide protest. Something like all the MCRmys protesting in front of a big national newspaper’s editorial building at the same time, so that even the smallest communities will do something (you know, the worldwide thing is impressing, maybe we could achieve something). We know that after the Daily Mail you may be reluctant, but think about it for a minute. MCR banned in a country. Do you think they deserve it? Do you think the fans deserve it?
  I’m not talking about it now, because first I want to know if you would join. Please, comment this post and tell me what you think.
• WE MUST TAKE ACTION BEFORE THE LAW PASSES. because, you know, it’s almost impossible to call off a law. Or, if you think the law will never be passed, we should hurry and do something anyways, so that the news is still “fresh” and we can get attention by the newspapers.

Bruno’s story

Please, don’t get mad with me for the errors, this is not my native language…

He was there. Alone, as he always been. This time, his wish was bigger then it never has been. A morbid wish, a wish of blood, carnage, death, his own death, and from the other people too. All he wanted was revenge; he wanted to avenge himself from everybody who did this to him. But, he didn’t know how to avenge himself… He used to live alone; he locked himself in his own world, a world that was created by him. There, inside his glass shade, he was safe from the danger that this cruel world used to bring. A fragile glass, which would break apart at the simple touch of a stranger’s hand.

 Few were the people who could enter that shade. Few, but, fortunately, good people. How pity they weren’t good enough to make he open himself, tell them what he was feeling. No, they weren’t so good like this…

 All that wanted was death. From all the people who brought suffering to him, who humiliated him, treated him like scum. And he wanted hid own death, too.

 He intended to have peace, in accordance with him, only when he dies, they would know who he was.

 But, he weren’t alone. He had someone to look for him. His (few) friends, well, they were okay… But, they didn’t understand. Nor his family, the family who wished him so well (some of them, because his father was always completely drunk to think on his son…), they didn’t know. He couldn’t tell his darkest secrets to anyone. They couldn’t heal his wounds. God, yes, this boy trusts Him, but he was afraid of some thoughts that He had.

 How lucky, in this world, there is always someone in a situation that is worse than our situation. Sometimes, it isn’t worse, but is so similar that it brings liveliness, will-power, to live, to say: “You cannot destroy me!” Five angels came to this boy, bringing good news, the news that they all would be punished, that he would have his sweet revenge! Yes, they will know who I am… Without the necessity of death!

Ashley’s story

Hello my name is Ashley. I live in Port Neches Texas USA. I discoverd My Chemical Romance from my brother when they first came out. He got me the demos and I instantly fell in love. In that time period I was going through many tough challenges. I was only in 6th grade.. I still was kinda chubby, couldn’t seem to fit in with anyone, and spent most of my days alone, when I should be mingaling, making friends, whatever. I listened and listened and listened to My Chemical Romance everyday more and more. Finally I started understanding. I can be myself. Fuck what people say and live life however you want to. Well my grades starting slipping, I wasn’t sure what was going on. One night I decided to end it, nothing seemed to go right. But God, for one I didn’t have the guts, and two I wasn’t ready to hurt anyone. So I just put life on the murder scene on and watched it all the way through. That’s when it hit me. I was here, I’m not afraid, and I’m ready to face the world. And to this day, MCR will always be my anti drug<33
