Like the Jets vs. The Sharks, but better. Apparently Mexicans are attacking emokids:
A bizarre wave of mob emo-bashings is sweeping across Mexico. The movement is being generated on message boards and social networking sites by non-emo youth who highly dislike like the emo look and attitude.
The spark came first in Queretaro on March 7. An estimated 800 young people poured into the city’s Centro Historico hunting for emos to beat the crap out of. They found some. The next weekend it spread to Mexico City, where emos faced off against punks and rockabillies at the Glorieta de Insurgents, the epicenter of emo social space in the capital. There’s also been reports of anti-emo violence in Durango, Colima, and elsewhere
Man, I feel both sides. Deeply. Image by Hernan Bas.
Whattttt… Did you watch that whole video? At the end, a group of Hare Krishnas show up and somehow bring peace between the punks and the emos! Mexico is so crazy.
