We're not saying that people aret entitled to their stuff, call it culture, call it a way of life, style, whatever. I'm all for people escaping from the GAP generation bubble( oh no, people are going to find that really offensive, oh well, I figure the GAP stands for all conformity in the world) But it again goes to where do we draw the line? We live in a world where trench coats are suddenly a sign of evil, murder, and HS terrorism, and these students are questioned and the cops are called, etc ( it happened to a friend of mine just for him wearing his trench coat, nothing else) In this world it seems that your sense of style defines you in the eyes of the public, and maybe this isnt right... but the point is, as Ben put it very well, some groups are persecuted for what they wear, why arent others? Ben brought up some very good points, where do we draw the line when a "sub-culture" promotes messages that are against the grain, and not in the best interest for a peaceful society? I know this goes very extreme, but if no one steps in when something wrong is promoted by a group and it soon has a large following, and still no one steps in.. do we end up with movements like of the Nazis? It's an interesting(tho extreme I'll admit) thought.. not to mention, look at some of the 'rap stars' they arent exactly the most law abiding citizens are they?
*sigh* congrats everyone, I think we have the most contriversial thread going on here. Whateva....
