Iraqis killed for emo style

http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/03/10/us-iraq-emo-killings-idUSBRE8290CY20120310

Apparently wearing emo clothes calls for being crushed to death with rocks.

What's surprising to me from the article is how the Iraqi government denies that such killing have occured and refers to emo dress as "satanism".

Religion makes people do the strangest things.

Seems a bit extreme. Maybe just a beating or some prison time would have sufficed to stop emo kids.

That would be the Christian thing to do.

Definintly excessive.

It's crazy what cultural traditions, religious influences, loose government regulation and law enforcement, and mob mentality lead to.

The most disturbing part to me is it actually looks like the government tacitly approves.

Yea I read about this yesterday. Very sad indeed.

We warn you, if you do not get back to sanity and the right path, you will be killedArticle

Well I admit emos are not sane people or on the right path but I fail to see how stoning people is any more right...

They aren't just killed for the while 'emo' thing, but anyone of any difference - homosexuality, bi-sexual, trans-gender and other differences that don't conform to the backwards demands of a religion where narrow minded males, since they are the ones in control there and mostly in religious circles, have a say over the lives of it's people - are being killed as well.

I guess many countries like the UK and US have much in common with Iraq, they're all populated with close minded fools who are incapable of getting over themselves and accepting that difference simply happens.

Bizarre and sad. I thought the whole emo thing was over? Maybe just in the states.Elraptor

What thread is this? Link please.

If it was a result of the thread I think it was, it was like a 12 page thread with AP and MissL just ripping each other apart. Lots of name calling and accusations. If it wasn't on the internet, clothes would have been ripped off.

I was probably playing ME3. FML.
