No Love for Emos in Russia
Filed under: Music Minute
Being an emo kid could be illegal in Russia soon!
The government is trying to pass a laws that would heavily regulate emo websites and ban emo and goth dress style in schools and government buildings.
The new laws are apparently being driven by fears that "emo" encourages depression and suicide.
There were mass protests by Russian emo kids this past weekend.
Dmitry Gilevich of Russian emo band MAIO said at a protest, "Expressing psychological emotions is not forbidden by law."
Poor emo kids!
England and Mexico hate on you and now Russia does too.

FIRST BITCHESSS
em, naw, the English don't HATE emos . . . bloody stupid assumption.
HAHAHAHAH EMO IS =GAY
That law will never pass. Guaranteed.
A MORE IMPORTANT QUESTION/CONCERN
WHEN ARE WE BANNING GUIDOS?
That will just give them even more reason to go underground.
Brilliant!!! This should be a world law! And let's apply this to HIPSTERS too! xxx
perez sits on his fatass all day and eats greasy popcorn
he eats candy and pop and popcicles and goes to the SWEET FACTORY AND MCDOLANDS every damn day!!!!!!!!!! everytime his tub o' lard takes a step the whole house jiggles and the neighbors wake up.
his poops are very large!!!! the size of boats.
hahahahahaha
EMO=HOMOS!! I HATE HATE HATE EMO! It sux! But Goth kids are cool! Loves them, they music iz better!
.
.
.
Emo kids sould be outlawed here as well!
.
.
I will just call Emo Kids HoEmos! from now on, I can't say enough bad thingz about Emo kidz, I really do hate them w/ a passion!
emo is gay
I don't think emos, as they're portrayed, exist. It seems to be a fabrication by authorities (likely right wing) to me. I'm probably wrong though.
Emo culture is ridiculous and hilarious!
I bet when those kids grow up they will be ashamed of the way they looked those days.
Aww My Gerard Baby!
Re: TRUTH – That iz not even funny! And even if he wuz, I'd still kiss him right on his lips. People w/ HIV/AIDS are people too, and don't U forget it!
woah…one of the first…
Bloody rediculous. Isn't there more inportant things that Russia could be passing laws on, like sorting out their pathetic excuse for childrens homes. Come on, if all we had to cope with in this world was stroppy teenagers (ps Im a 26 year old MCR fan so I am NOT dissing anyone in anyway so lay off bi-atches) if that was all we had to deal with in this world then it would be a pretty fine place to be. How about govenments start passing laws over the IMPORTANT things in this world and start EARNING their rediculous pay cheques!!!!!
Bloody plebs
Stalin would be proud. I'm proud to be an American where ugly pale kids are still free to listen to shitty music and cut.
WHO CARES
EMOS ARE GETTTING OLD ANYWAYS
&
RUSSIANS ARE WEIRD.
yeah I read about this. Personally I think its rather stupid to target emos/goths especially when other kids/adults cut and commit suicide who dont follow that lifestyle. People don't cut themselves because the music told them to. Duh!!!
Normally I would say this is wrong, but after all the stupid actions that a lot of teenagers have taken, it well looks like this is what we're finally going to have to do.
Re: Perez – SUCK MY SACK BITCH!!!! QUIT POSTING THAT SHIT!!!!! OH AND EMOS ARE GROSSSSS
Re: aj – LMAO LOVESIT Emus are sooo much cuter than Emos!
Re: aj – Shut up, Shrek!
At least Russia doesn't have to deal w/ guys wearing way baggy pants. Who wants to look at skanky underwear hanging out? GROSS. That look is SO OLD and OVER and UGLY!–and they look like skirts. haha!
OMG how can u not understand that MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE is NOT EMO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
JUST CUZ THEY DRESS IN BLACK DOESN'T MAKE THEM EMO, stupid pig!!
GEE ROCKSSSSSSSSSSSS
OMG how can u not understand that MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE is NOT EMO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, at least now they've REALLY got something to be sad about.
This is ridiculous!! this law would be so discriminative its disgusting, just look what happened to Sophie Lancaster here in the UK, a law like that would just promote such negative feeling towards people who dress in an 'emo' or 'gothic' style.
First, Perez i love you, youve lost a lot of weight, im super proud of you. your amazing. and if i could i would love to one day have an interview/just talk with you. hah your too cool.
Second, these rude asses who are dissing you can screw off, pretty much..FUCK HATERS!
The emo look is HOT!! XD

That law will never pass. A government cant pass a law on a someones personal feelings or dress sense but it is russia after all so who knows . . That said, I do agree that "emo" encourages depression and suicide. I have known a lot of people who have acted depressed and even cut just to fit into that circle.
Fuck off, you can hardly say england dont like them just cause of the daily mail!
I dont personally like many emos tbh, cause they look all greasy and dirty most of the time.
But one of my good friends is an emo, and he is always so happy, you always hear him laughing at work, even if hes 20 checkouts down!
Im as far from emo as youre gonna get in england, but we do not hate emo's in this country knobhead!
Come to one of the colleges in this country and you will soon see that!

hahaha those damn emo kids… thats what they get for being so full of sh*t!!
First there was grunge, then there was goth…now we have emo…..the pants just get tighter from there.
Emos are an embarassment to themselves, but the good thing is that when they grow up and get real, grown up problems, they will realise just how ridiculous they were.
guidos do more harm than emos. what with all of their hairspray and shit.
lol, this is bull
:o! You can put X's over anyones face, but not Gerard! He is fricking amazing!
like banning emo sites/stuff is going to reduce the amount of suicides…
its a trend ppl..
hhahaha 'emo' people are just posers
My Chemical Romance
they are NOT EMOS….
well..!!I thinkk..??:O
Wow. I guess freedom of expression means nothing anymore.
WHAT THE FUCK?!!?!?
You can't tell somebody how to dress or how to feel. what the fuck kind of law is that????
They might as well ban preps, also.
Emo's aren't always "depressed" and suicidal. I have lots of emo friends, and generally, they are happy people. i myself being considered emo, am happy lots of the time. I don't think about killing myself 24/7.
and we absolutly don't encourage suicide.
thats complete bullshit.
and MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE is ANTI-SUICIDE.
they inspired me not to kill myself. and because of them i lead a much better life.
by the way, that is a very sexy picture of gerard =]
That's terrible. I think finding a group to hang out with makes you less depressed, regardless of dress style and attitude. I was just a loner in school, though, so who knows? Maybe some groups can be hazardous to hang with….but still, to be blacklisted? That's a little harsh (and stupid).
poor emos….
NOOOOOOOOT
It is not that the government hate Emos, Perez, you confuse everything, people is just trying to prevent kids to kill themselves, Perez, if you are going to write about something serious like this matter, you better learn more about the subject, nobody hates Emos, that is not the feeling here is just that no one wants more kids to kill themselves.
thats one of the stupidest things i have ever read!
people should have the freedom to express themselves!
Re: Mur – lol. sadly, teenagers have turned it into a trend. that's the problem.
awww that is so sad for the emo kids. i used to loooove emo music back in my highschool days. i still enjoy the sounds of such bands like By A Thread (are they even around anymore??). give the emo kids a break!
Re: Perez – HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
It's about time!! Emo's suck !!!!!
Lets make Russians and Mexicans illegal in America!
Perhaps living in Russia encourages depression and suicide
honestly, what is defined as 'emo' anymore? everything seems to be 'emo' lately. so what if i defined an outfit to be emo and someone didn't? all of russia is going to be running around nude soon. uncalled for law. honestly, it's not going to stop anything anyway.
Emos cause depression? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Consuming vodka in HUGE quantities and winter that lasts 9 months also gets you down. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
let people deal with things the way they need to deal with them… if choosing to listen to emo and cut themselves…then so be it…and for all the people that take time out of their day to post comments about how much they hate perez… why waste your time…no one cares except you…and yet you find your way to this website to see what he is posting…
:)
That's so freaking ridiculous!
.
What happened to freedom of expression? I'm glad I live in the US.
"Expressing psychological emotions is not forbidden by law."
No it is not… but doing so while wearing eye makeup and having an assymetrical haircut could very well be.
ha ha ha ha ha they are already depressed, now they won't have a country? !!! HARSH!!!
emos are sexy !!!
bullshit!
this is like 'you're not allowed to be black in russia'.
emo kids are FUCKING AWESOME
and i know it.
that only shows how desperate for an excuse to rule over the world law by law the governaments are these days.I mean,I'm an emo,I loove MCR,simple plan,Panic at the disco,the whole bunch,and i don't feel exactly like hanging myself,to end the pain of my soul.that's stupid,and those parens just don't wanna admit that their daughter was mentally ill.it's the music,not their crazy daughter.
Lets make Russians and Mexicans illegal in America!

i think that simply being russian predisposes you to depression
Ha. Good!
this is the most rediculous thing ive ever read!
i think emo and gothic people are suicidal, and should just vanish ( :
emo is a fucking genre of music.
the word is derived from the words; "emotive hardcore."
it's not fucking short for "emotional."
emo kids don't exist.
that´s stupid and…gerard way is not emo!!!
Wouldn't banning emo make the emo kids more depressed and likely to kill themselves because it's illegal to express themselves?
Glad to hear someone has the balls to try and stop the ridiculous trend
Maybe this will make them off themselves in one fell swoop. yay!

well. maybe if they didn't act all "sad and depressed" as they walk out of huge homes and have parents who drive mini-vans and have younger/older siblings that play sports…people could stand you. but guess what emo twat, nobody cares that your "life sucks" because it doesnt. enjoy your mom's chicken dinner with all the fixins while you listen to good charlotte in your room. loser.
Emos are weird. Who the Hell chooses depression as a lifestyle??
really hating emo kids…. no, i'm from mexico and let me tell you that the things that happened wih emo kids here are really from the past and now you can be an emo kid living normally here…. some people like me are not happy with that movement but now we can live ok with each other…. the thing in russia is really awful but i just want to defend my country by saying that things now are ok with emos.
My Chemical Romance isn't even an "emo" band Perez.
REAL emo music has died, and it never had anything to do with the shitty fashion.
Russia has had one of the highest suicide rates in the world for quite a while now. I don't think being EMO has anything to do with it. More like rampant corruption, ailing economy and the dreary winters. Most emos are just going through a phase and only a few actually cut themselves let alone commit suicide… I've known 4 people that commited suicide and 3 of them were metal heads and 1 was an average guy. EMO music isn't even dark at all either. Not my style but to my ears it's very POP style music to me.
Another thought…teenagers (or anyone for that matter) don't need a certain style of clothes or music to feel depressed and want to kill themselves. it happens, it's a chemical imbalance which is hereditary.
My Chemical Romance is NOT FUCKIN' EMO! They even say it THEMSELVES! Good God!
about fucking time!
Also, Gerard is hot!
Also, Gerard is HOT! xD
What really sucks is that the word emo was turned into something connoting depression and darkness. Before that, depression and darkness was known as Goth. I'm sure there was another term for it before that. Early emo music from 2000 wasn't necessarily about depression, just extreme, raw emotion coupled with slowed down punk chords. Appleseed Cast, Pedro the Lion, and early Jimmy Eat World were what emo was at first.
Re: Emo –
9 months? hmm I love it! maybe you should come out of you closet ddaaaahlin. I love how ignorant americans tend to be. very sad though. as far as the law goes I say go for it. check the statistics people, before you descide to drop your 2 cents. but then again your intellect won't let you go beyond writing crap on this site. Regarding someone saying it's depressing to live there….HAH. oh wait the bearss will get you! look around people, read some books watch some news maybe you won't be as ignorant as you are. dun dun duuunnnn
thats ridiculous!
Re: puto – burrito, I'm sure times are tough, trying to make it as an illegal immigrant in America. don't project your weirdo words on me cause I don't care and you smell like wet.
i just have to react., I was listening to MCR then I found this post, strange.. Anywho, MCR is not emo, they think is garbage though being emo and all. The Government should do something like a rehab for emo people here in the Philippines. Being Emo is so exaggerated.
for fuck sakes mcr are not emo. leave it alone.
we should do that here in the states too, I get sick of looking at those freaks
These countries have better taste than americans in music, emo=sucks.
