| | | Before I clicked on the link, I thought you had made up that headline.
"Only after her death would they discover how she had secretly chatted online to emo followers all over the world, talking about death and of the "black parade" — a place where emos believe they go after they die."
:| Have the Mail finally given up on even trying to make their stories seem plausible? |

| | | We can always count on the daily mail for blaming societys problems on youths and youth culture. all of the daily mails stories have 4 categories:
1. Diana is still dead
2. Maddie McCann is still missing
3. The world is ending (due asylum seekers or single mothers or single mothers seeking asylum)
4. ban this sick filth
This story fits with number 4. |

| | That article is beyond Brass Eye, really. I did hear something on the radio news when I was waking up about a girl's death being something to do with 'emo' and wasn't sure if I dreamed it or not, it must have been this story. Quote:

Her parents are probably blaming the emo sub-culture because its easier than blaming themselves for what ever they did to royal fuck their daughter up or for not helping her with her problems. No one who is perfectly happy will just decide to kill themselves based on listening to some music.
I'm suprised that they didn't try to pin all those teen suicides in Bridgend, and the disproportionatly high suicide rate among teens in general living in Wales on some form of rock music. |

| | | I hate to play devil's advocate - well, I don't, but let's pretend I do - but has anyone considered the possibility that she was influenced by the subculture? I'm talking less here about the music and more about the general culture of fuckwittedness surrounding MySpace et al.
I'm wondering if it at the very least contributes to people taking the "life is pain, what's the point?" self-pitying route away from their problems, rather than learning to deal with them. The last thing any teenager needs when they're mad at the world is a bunch of people agreeing with them about it. God knows how I would've turned out if I'd grown up ten years later. |

| | | 'cult or sect' lol
I don't know much or care much about emo, but perhaps it is attractive to those poor lost souls who are already 'depressed' or whatever before hand. |

| | | At the risk of sounding disingenuous, what true MCR fan would top themselves, knowing a live album is to be released next month?: I mean, really, would YOU kill yourself when you have five fabby death masks to look forward to?? goff:

| | | Gawd, the Daily Mail really is the pits. Every article has to include the phrase OUR CHILDREN in block capitals and generally preceeded by "Housing crisis/Immigrants/Food additives threaten". I think purchasing the Daily Mail should automatically bar you from having a vote because you are clearly an idiot. |

On the night of her death, Hannah had spent the evening at a friend's house — also an emo and one who had also cut himself, telling his mother: "We're emos, we all do it."
Hannah had wanted to sleep over and was upset at having to leave.
When they got home, Mrs Bond told Hannah to go to bed, adding that they would discuss the matter in the morning.
The teenager turned to her and said: "I feel like killing myself."
Breaking down in tears, Mrs Bond told the inquest: "I think I said: 'Don't be so silly — we'll talk about it in the morning.'"
