Just Leave The Little Emo Kids Alone!
Filed under: Wacky, Tacky & True
It seems there's a huge problem arising in Mexico, and it has nothing to do with politics or money.
Apparently, there is a wave of violence occuring against emo kids. Why the haterade???
Emo music fans are being attacked in the street by mobs. The attackers are supposedly punk, metal, and rock fans who dislike the emo kiddies for their look and attitude, it's being reported.
What's wrong with a little guyliner and mascara????
The attacks are being traced back to a rant on air by Kristoff, a TV personality on Televisa TV. Kristoff recently said emo was just "fucking bullshit", but later - after the attacks, he called for an end to the violence.
Unfortunately for Kristoff, he might take the blame for all the incidents if the Mexican government blames Televisa for all the attacks.
Earlier this month, over 800 people in Querataro, Mexico began to gang up against the emos, which resulted in several violent attacks. Just a week later in Mexico City, a similar incident took place. The emos in both Querataro and Mexico City decided to respond to the violence by marching peacefully through the center of the cities.
How emo!
Write a song about it!
And, it seems Mexico isn't the only country facing this issue. Apparently, Chile is also seeing violence against emos.
Attacks have been shown on news reports throughout the country of emos, known in Chile as "PokEMOns" being attacked.
Love your emo brothers and sisters!
Don't they have Hot Topic stores in Mexico and Chile they can all go and chill in???

HELL yea Mexico made it to appear on Perez, too bad it was for such an event. but just to clarify, Kristoff is not responsible for this as the media is trying to put it. and no, perez, we don't have cool stores like HOT TOPIC here.
Hola, yo soy de mèxico, y la vdd es que la situaciòn es terrible, lo que pasò en queretaro fuè algo muy fuerte, y todo trata de prejuicios, los niños que son "emo" son solo un estilo y un tipo de mùsica, y el problema no solo es en queretaro, en todos lados se està utilizando la frase "putea un emo" que es lo mismo que golpealo.
That's the dude from the Horrors! They aren't emo!
Re: WHO CARES –
Okay that was a VERY rude comment.
You have no right to hate on the people who work on the jobs your selfish, greedy self doesn't even want to do because you find it too low for your ego.
It's you who need us more than we do, if mexicans, or any other latins stopped visiting the US for going to Wal-mart like many of us do, your country's economy would DIE. and THAT's a fact.
Grow up and get a brain.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
that is tooooo funny.
CUT MY WRISTS AND BLACK MY EYES.
well i guess they got what they were asking for.
im chilean and i want to clarify some things…
1) emos in chile are called emos not pokemones
2)pokemones are some kids that dress like emos but listen to reaggeton. also they like to "poncear" (make out ) a lott….
3) and the so called violence against pokemones is not an issue here, bc there isnt any… maybe in mexico but not here
This isn't funny at all.. If it were gay bashing would you be laughing at it? making fun of it?
you need to bite the bullet and shut your fat pie hole.
Well I'm from Mexico and here everybody hates EMOS and reguetoneros! they really suck! We don't like them, but most of the people don't go and hit them, those people are crazy =)
a woman was beaten to death in the uk a few days because she was a goth……this is senseless it has to stop everywhere
HAHAHAHA
maybe if they weren't all such fucking pussies.
Emo kids are cool just drop the hip huggers and you will be alright!!!!!!!!
yeah, all this is happening here, in Mexico and i dont know why the violence against them, seems emo is a new style of life you know, and another "groups" hate them… let them be, then when they grow up, aren't gonna be emos anymore
nahhhh we dont have hot topics on mexicoo…the nearest thing might be adrenalina…but nope.
n the incident really began back in november when a guy a.k.a. "elanticristo2008" postd a video on youtube against the emos.
really sucks.
Trying to blame it all on one person is way more stupid than the whole movement itself.
this is about the dumbest thing i've ever read in my entire life,
you're all morons
nice stereotype by the way
get a fucking hobby
mmmmm
soy de chile
si vivieran aqui tambien quisieran matar a los pokemones (pokEMOs)
pero segun el concepto de chile no es lo mismo los pokemones que los emo
pero son mas ridiculos y estupidos que los emo jajay son solo una tribo de las numeroasas tribus urbanas de CHILE
se que no entenderan nadaa asi que adios
:D
The pokemons aren't emo thought. They dress emo but listen to reggaeton how weird is that. They deserve to get their asses kicked for being fucking retarded .
LOL its fucked up but I gotta admit I love how they call them "PokEMOns" LOL!
I think this is FANTASTIC! If only they'd do it everywhere, then maybe the emo infestation would be cleared out.
mmmm the horrors frontman… and peaches
c'mon… for the first time i was agree in soemthing.. EMO is just a bullshit.. 4 sure… non logical reason to wear as a fake wannabe of punk-dark or whatever they want… & blame kristoff hahaha.. i didnt know he still be on tv wow..
wtf.. emo ppl go out & cry… cso they dont know what they want.. ..
alright i have to admit i didnt even read most of this cuz it was boring but SERIOUSLY leave the emo kids alone… i wear alot of black and listen to "emo" bands so therefore i am labeled as emo…. emo is short for emothional… oooh dont you feel big picking on the emotional kid?
mature guys very mature…
I aman emo and everyone I know knows about it and accept my emo choices. Just a week ago I went 2 mexico and saw other emos. Just as I left to the airport some punkers and rockers through tomatos at my car. I got out and then they started to try and grab a roc and smash it at me. I then got rapidily in my and left. This attac must stop. What have we emos done to the comunity 2 deserve this. we are just being ourselves
You're all disgusting pieces of racist shit. I'm a white girl from Jersey living in Mexico City and you must know that the emo population is much different here than it is in the US. I just moved here a few months ago so I'm completely familiar with both versions. The emos aren't about the music here. They're sick and sad and suicidal. Of course violence is never the answer and no one deserves to ridiculed as they might have been according to this artice - never seen anything like that myself.
perez me encantas pero antes de hablar informate… en chile no es lo mismo emos que pokemones… la violencia contra ellos no es tema… el tema es la promiscuidad que hay…
I live in Mexico and no , there is no Hot Topic … and I personally dislike emos at least the posers , they are very pathetic and stupid . Really stupid . But you are right ? If you give more attention to the problem is that you care , so I don't participate in those things , the only way to erradicate emos is stop giving them attention . Yeah , something like that.
WHY DOESNT EVERYONE JUST GO FUCK THEMSELVES?? WHO CARES ABOUT EMOS AND PUNKS AND RAPPERS…..JESUS! JUST GO MASTURBATE OR SOMETHING
WTFs with the picture of Faris? He's English and far from emo you moron
what the fuckkk lol thats ridiculous we are living in 2008 and ppl are getting fucking jumped because their clothes are too small for them and their hair is short and they are like unisex ish buts its allg ood they r still humans
AMERICA ROCKSS
I'm sorry, but I would like to beat the shit out of a poser if I had a chance. They're like little piñatas.
Re: mmaff – YOU SPEAK YOUR MIND, DON'T HOLD BACK…..LIKE I GIVE A SHIT.
the problem in chile with POKEMONES are that they are a copy of everything that comes from other countries such as ..style, music , clothes even they dance the cwalk…they should be unique and themselves not trying to copy something they are not …maybe that's why they are getting their ass whip …i was in chile and i saw them they looked very ridiculos
mm the true is horrible..
i live in qro.
and the other day!
a group of " chakos" wanted to hurt me
sorry.. but is QUERETARO… with e

Re: tierney – thank god for us… stupid gringo… i prefer this kind of violence than the murder in iraq.. fucking retards!
Re: wetbacks are animals – no, but i sure would want to kill myself if i was YOU. The only animal here is you, for having that kind of mentality. Funny, how Americans are so hateful towards Mexicans, but here in Europe, and everywhere else for that matter, people hate Americans. maybe it's because you are so superficial and narrow-minded, and think you are the best in the world when you are not. I bet you also believe that there are really weapons of mass destruction in iraq. sure you may see other races killing people on tv and what not, but when it comes to serial killers the profile is that of a white male under 34. also, since when do Americans have culture? it's all based around disney. hollywood, and mcdonalds. i'm absolutely sure that not all Americans are like this, but it's the few idiots like yourself, that give your country a bad name. grow up and get a different mentality other than the one you have which is even worse than that of a five year old. i may not have perfect english but i'm pretty sure you know no other language other than your own. it must be a sad life you live, to be so ignorant.
heii
yeah
im from mexico
ensenada
and i know about it
all
allot of friend of mine r joining these groups, i think by saturday, theres gonna be something in Tijuana against emo kids
and its all over the news
televisa
tv azteca
everywhere
fer realz if you wanna knoe a little more about it perez you can just e-mail me
HAHAHAHA and no we dont have hot topic's here in mexico
i think
naah we dont..!
and some guys wanna hit ME, im not emo but i use tigth pants haha!
soo.. whataver
so what you hate lauren conrad and miley cyrus and stuff, but you love emos. okayyy………… you are an idiot. emos are fucking idiots
emo kids suck!! they all are stupid, though im not happy of all the violence against the but its really funny hahaha. Kisses perezito!
I live in Puebla, Mexico and the emo kids protested here, too.
I think maybe part of the reason some people are violent towards them is homophobia….pretty much anything a guy does that is "different" is considered "gay" and negative. Gay marriage may have been approved in Mexico City, but people are still very slow to accept gay and lesbian lifestyles in general.
oh my god, it's like a weird twist on the los angeles zoot suit riots of june, 1943. check 'em out, you'll be glad you did.
that guy hit me over the head!!!! he beats up people at his gigs!!! who is the beater now>>??
FERRIS ROTTER IS AN ASSHOLE
Thank god emo kids are fucking retarded!! beat them allL!!
yeah, its a terrible situation here in mexico !, an emo kid was really bit up by a bunch of idiots
p.s. im not emo but i wish there was hot topic stores here in mexico !!
What's an EMO? Someone please tell me……so confused…
no we dont have hot topic stores here in mexico city
THANK GOD!!
wtf?? Why? Their just another trend along with punk, rocker, gothic, hardcore, rockabillies…ALL music is emo…emo=emotional! In all actuality, it's a lifestyle, not a trend…but now days teenagers have made into a trend
that's faris from the horrors! he's no emo…!
hello.
www.ydzonline.com
The horrors arnt emo, their garage punk rock.
they have a totally unique sound, nothing like the shit music that every band is coming out with these days.
faris badwan ain't emo dickwad!
A friend of mine got stabbed to death for being "emo". When he never considered himself that in the first place. It sickens me so much.
WE DONT HAVE HOT TOPICS LOL
BTW KRISTOFF IS PART OF OUR NON-BRAINED TV PERSONALITIES
Lo pongo en español, porque es mi país… No se si leas el comment, pero no toda la gente de Mexico opinamos igual que la gente que ha provocado este tipo. Yo creo que la nueva tribu urbana como son los emos son gente que tiene el derecho a la libertad de expresion, como tu y yo… Su musica no es mi favorita, a lo mejor su ropa tampoco, pero los respeto, porque son seres humanos.
PEREZ YOU ARE CONFUSED, IT SEEMS YOU ARE THINKING GOTH INSTEAD OF EMO. YOU ARE A MAINSTREAM POP FAN AND SHOULD NOT BE COMMENTING ON THINGS YOU DONT UNDERSTAND DOUCHE
WE ARE THE ANGRY MOB!
er… no, there's no Hot Topic at Mexico. Instead, unknown people opened independent and awkward stores that have no relation at all for kids who like emo, punk, and rock, all together!
how happy is that……………? still, they are getting kicked in the ass
Awh that's not cool :[
Poor kids, I feel for them.
i just wanted to point out that in chile it isn't a conflict of the people vs. emos, it's emo girls vs. blondies, and it's been going on for years. I'm not on the blondies' side, just wanted to point out that the emo girls aren't completely innocent themselves.

no there aren't any hot topics in mexicoo
i dont get why people hate emo i cant walk down the street with out people shouting emos scum at me
i may have passed the emo phase… but dont hurt em please.
emo is the new mod.
emo didn't just spring out of no where. and its not all as my chemical romance crap.
morrisey?bright eyes?taking back sunday? even city and colour who 'the duffs' went to see are ”emo”.
does this mean lots of mexicans are going to be running across the borders to hunt hilary duff & her sister down for attending a gig with emo roots?
fools
Happens All The Time In The Uk
I thought Pokemons were those who party to much?
what the fuck? and i reading the onion? hahahahahaha
I live in England and there's just been an incident in the North where a goth girl was kicked to dead by a bunch of chavs. The group first started beating up the girl's boyfriend until he was unconcious and then they started on her when she stepped in to protect him.
She fell into a coma and never woke up.

Eh, why the picture of Faris from The Horrors? They're like, one of the least emo bands I can think of…. He's a hottie!
Awww aint Faris cute?
why are you guys hating on the emo kids ?
dude ; they didnt do anything to you , so leave them alone ,
they have enough sadness in their life , doesn't mean you have to go
barging in on them , making their lives even worse .
and if you really don't know what emo means ,
then dont look it up, because you'll try it for no reason .
Hahahahaa YES!!!! It's about time someone gives emo kids something to actually cry about. Hahaa Emily's post was funny on the 1st page….."I hate how people get picked on for their style" Emo is def. not a style it's a bunch of kids that need to get beat up.
Damn! I hate those stupid emo kids… Everytime I see them at the mall I just wanna kick them to give them something to be emo about…
You're all between 12 and 17!! How bad could life be! I don't wanna be anywhere near em when they reach adulthood and actually have to face a REAL issue.
I'm not saying what's happening is right. But I do think the whole emo thing is stupid.
I'm sorry, I was LMAO while reading this.
1. It is spelled Querétaro.
2. This is happening all over the world. Chile, Perú, Brazil, UK and USA too.
3. I love how the punk, metal, and rock fans are united against something as stupid as this. But you know emos were calling for it, like desperately. At least now they have a real reason to cry about, they love the drama.
4. Anyway, I don't think we have that many 'real emos' in México. All this hate is against -posers- and btw Peaches Geldof isn't really emo and neither is Faris Rotter.
5. Kristoff is full of shit. He's so hypocritical, he even had a segment on his show ridiculizing emos.. but I don't think he's the one to blame. They blew things way out of proportion.
6. This whole thing began in youtube and metroflog, people in Querétaro PLANNED that atack for some time.
7. Why don't you add that some Hare Krishnas stopped the fight in México City? You make us look like all mexicans are violent. And most of us, think emos are really annoying and as much as we would love to punch them in the face or just cut off their silly hair, WE DON'T.
PS: You could dig up some fucked up shit about Kristoff… in 2002 he was (legally) involved in the death of some guy DURING ANOTHER SHOW OF HIM called 'No te equivoques'. People seem to forget, but I don't
I always remember that when I see his face.

Re: Paul – Ke pndjo eres!!.. Seguro ni cultura tienes!

not querataro
Re: Taco breathe –
u are an ignorant inbred redneck! Shows how much you know I am Mexican and no honey I dont clean ,landscape etc. I make damn good money so if you will excuse me I have to get in my BMW and go to Gucci for some things. Oh and dont worry I'll drop some used clothes for you at Goodwill.
The emos must be stopped.
This is stupid and quite sad if you wana look at what this stupid hate does to people look over here in england. Kids are gettting beaten to death cos they like different music or dress differently! cant we all just get along………..
LMFAO! Lol, this is just too funny!
Emo kids used to get ragged on here too all the time but now its like fashion to be emo fuckin posers every 12 year old thinks there "emo" when they dont even know what emotional rock is
I honestly laughed when I read this… but then I read it was in Queretaro Mexico… I lived there for 10 years… and then I realized it was some of my friends going against the "emos".
It's really sad. But seriousely they need a myspace to blog their anger or something…
It is time for the emos to die. Try a new trend already dumbasses
This is so stupid! people in Mexico have more important things to complain about. Intolerance makes me sad, and there's nothing EMO about that
The hate or dislike now evolving into physical altercations against emos shouldn't rest solely on Kristofs shoulders. Yes he's said several times on air that emo's are lame or dumb bull but you can't tell me that every single one of the punkers and metal heads out there were watching and said 'hey, Kristoff is right! Let's kill 'em!". Also the latest clash was at a mall and included FRESAS or preppies. Trust me, Kristoff has NO sway on fresas because if there is anyone he loves to talk shit about its fresas. In fact, Kristoff does nothing more than talk shit on his shows. Thats what he gets paid for. He has a couple shows, one with a doctor and they give all sorts of advise and information about sex and sexuality but he just sits there and talks shit most of the time. He gets all sorts of hate e-mails and he even reads them on air, he's a shit talker and thats his deal. He relishes in any sort of attention…sort of like Perezito!
If I were you I'd crawl up into my mothers dirty cunt and die.
I bet you live in the US. Instead of talking shit about another countries fucked up corrupt government, why don't you take a look at your own fucked up corrupt government and practice what you preach, asshole.
suck it!
Re: JennBunney –
"emo" doesn't always mean "emotional" as in sad/upset/depressed. If you listen to what is labled as "emo" music (no, not good charlotte or whatever…the real indie/emo underground bands that are: Brandtson, OnelineDrawing, Dashboard Confessional, Denison Whitmer, Lovedrug, etc, you'll see that it's not all sad. It's a way of truly being able to being yourself and letting all your emotions come out whether they are happy/sad/mad. Besides, who says the rich suburban kids aren't allowed to be sad? Remember, money doesn't always solve happiness. It's usually just a filler.
:)
But I won't lie and say some off them go too far with the look & attitude. You just need to look at it from a whole. I'm not the typical looking "emo" kid, but you better believe that that's the music I listen to.
Re: KILL ALL EMO KIDS! –
They aren't posers. They aren't even punk rock. Go read something about them and read their influences. It's not all punk rock bands. K thanks.
This is just sick! I dont listen to emo music but i have friends and know people who do and they are perfectly fine!!!! i mean , how can you judge a person by her's or his music taste?! and how can you beat some one becauce it?! how sick is the world?!
if only they did that in the u.s…
