According to the newspaper La Crónica de Hoy more than 1000 “alternative” rock fans, skaters and heavy metal kiddies joined forces to attack a group of emos in Querétaro, Mexico last Friday (March 7th). One of them was nearly lynched as you can see in the video below (Julian posted a translated transcript of the video report in the comment). Three other people were injured and 28 arrested. The police traced the beginnings of the conflict to a campaign in some blogs where emos are portrayed as gay and giving a “bad image” to tourists.  Think of emos whatever you want but I hope one of these homophobic dumbasses got a nice fist into his face. And if your an emo in Mexico who is actually gay… take an advise from Kirk Read: Fight back and beat the shit out of their heads!

Wir brauchen mehr Bilder von homosexuellen jungen Leuten, die den Menschen den Mist aus ihren Köpfen rausprügeln! Schluss mit verdrießlichen, depressiven Vorbildern! Wenn wir der Jugend wirklich etwas Sinnvolles mitgeben wollen, dann wie man ordentlich zuschlägt. - Kirk Read
