Dozens of Iraqi teenagers stoned to death for ‘emo’ haircuts

Iraqi activists sounded the bell over the killing of dozens of teenagers by religious police for having “emo” haircuts.

Activists told the Cairo-based al-Akhbar daily that at least 90 Iraqi teenagers with “emo” appearances have been stoned to death by the Moral Police in the country in the past month. The violent crackdown against “emo” Iraqi teenagers came after the Iraqi interior ministry declared them as “devil worshippers.”

“The ‘Emo phenomenon’ or devil worshiping is being probed by the Moral Police who have the approval to eliminate it as soon as possible since it’s detrimentally affecting the society and becoming a danger,” a statement by the Interior Ministry said.

How horrible.

Do you think these murders will be prosecuted, or swept under the rug? Do you think there is any connection to international forces leaving Iraq?

i found a picture.
it was split, one side was a happy smiling LIVING young man with a dumb haircut, looked like one of the freaking Jonas brothers... and on the other side was him lying dead in the back of a truck with his head covered in blood.


its really REALLY not funny at all.

at least not if your older than him, i guess. i just wanted to cry.

At least these Emos actually have something to emo about.

Not because Tokio Hotel broke up.
