First off, check out my blogs; They tell a lot about me. Go ahead and subscribe.I'm a Reformed (no more drugs including alcohol) Old School Punk.When I first joined MySpace May 04 I only had a tiny Straight Edge blurb but as my addiction grew so did my profile. It's not just me; I have come across all sorts on this thing: old lovers and friends, people I have admired, many new people. MySpace is an unprecedented phenomenon – sooner or later everyone’s on it. If it wasn’t so valuable – I’d be against it.**************TRUE PUNK************** I am a Punk. I am politically INcorrect. I despise PC – it’s got nothing to do with respect and everything to do with control. It’s a half-step from censorship and a skip away from tyranny. PC is really SOCIAL REGULATION – it’s my ENEMY. Give me political incorrectness or give me death. People need to be offended any damn way, I abhor your sensibilities; it’s my job to piss on them when you think they apply to me. Everyone is wrong about everything. And your self-righteousness makes it hilarious. What really cracks me up are these so-called Punks who are more like hippies with piercings. Hey whatever there needlitz. How did politics and Punk Rock become so enmeshed? The answer is simple - conformity. People are afraid to be truly different so they puss out and sing the same tune as those around them - Punk or no-Punk. Go get some more tattoos and piercings – you’ll fit right in; now you’re as cool as everyone else. A prime reason why I’m a Punk is because people are assholes (yes, you) - not for any bullshit political reason. You think your politics and Punk are the same? – PC is the sing-song of the MAINSTREAM left, anarchy (anarchism) is a pipe dream and your socialist/communist views are as common as sand. Ask yourself this question: if you’re crying out for the same thing as a mainstream element – just how Punk are you? ****************WAR*************** I am a long-time card-carrying member of the Libertarian party. I have both leftist and rightist views - I’m a centrist. Though the official policy of the party is against the war – I am for it. Surprised? I didn’t like George Bush UNTIL 9/12/01. What I like best about him is his incredible ablity to piss people off - he's my hero!! Isn’t it so funny how so many hipsters, rockers and Punks hate Bush?? Why? The simple answer, the most common one is because they think it’s the cool thing. After all – all their friends think like that right? And they all know how evil da white man is right? I support the Jihad War and it’s Iraqi campaign. If I were the president I would not have invaded Iraq – I would not give up the life of one single American soldier for Iraqi democracy. However, I choose to support the foreign policy so that the country can be strong. So that we’ll win the war – this can only be done with unity. Bush has implemented The Project for the New American Century’s strategy. Well, he had the perfect motivation for it – 9/11. An American can support this or not. I know our Iraqi invasion was aggressive. This is acceptable to me. Best defense is a strong offense. Though it wasn’t this simple of course; I considered the pros and cons and changed my stance a few times before I settled on supporting the policy. Dissent is a great thing; one of the greatest things – slander is not. It’s the tool of the weak. Only the fearful tell lies. The amount of ignominious viciousness in public discourse (or lack of it) during the election was only surpassed by it’s entertainment value. If you don’t support the nation’s policy in the Middle East – OK, but THINK for YOURSELF and TELL THE TRUTH – that’s something I can respect. That being said; If I had my way I would return every American serviceman from every country, and withdraw from the internal matters of all other nations. But that’s me – my Libertarian view is far from government policy. And until people stop voting for Republicans or Democrats – this will always be. The way I would like things and reality are two different things. ***********US MILITARY******** Many people put the military down. To them I say; I don't know if it's your arrogance or ignorance - it's too close to call. Or maybe it’s just a lack of gratitude. If it wasn’t for the US military – you would not have freedom. I became a hardcore Punk when I was in the 82nd Airborne Division back in 1985/86 along with other paratroopers. So many Punks can’t even fathom this - they’re so oblivious. I ran with a crew in Raleigh, NC called The Rats. If you tried to tell us that America sucked or how the military were a bunch of witless pawns we’d have given you a lesson. And we loved The Exploited’s “Fuck the USA†– if you can understand that; then you can begin to understand me. But don’t cry how fucked up the government is and it’s enforcers when you yourself are fucked up as well. Be the change – don’t whine about it. Capitalism is proven time and time again to be far better than any other system. It’s the only one that allows freedom and for opportunity to be seized. All others are much more suppressive. I am proud of nothing - but my American citizenship via legal genealogical immigration and my national service. ***********STRAIGHT-EDGE************* I'm not really SxEx but I pity all you fucks that take drugs to change reality. You go out with your friends, get wasted and have such a great time – that’s not real. Who knows the pollution level in your brain? If it wasn't for alcohol you wouldn't even get laid. All the bars are sanctuaries from the real world; if God were vengeful He’d blow them all up - with you in it. Me? I sleep and jerk off way too much; it’s easier than dealing with reality. *************PUNK UNITY********** I guess they’ve talked about this since the beginning. But back then it was mostly just Punks and Skins. Now you got a shitload of different sub-genres that have sprung from Punk. If ever there was a time to have unity – it’s now. Can you imagine the strength? How awesome the Scene would be? When I got back into the Scene in Jan 02 I never even heard of “crustyâ€. Emo? – I heard the term a few times in the 80’s. Now these things are well known. I could go on about these things but this is not the place. The point is that if we can TOLERATE each other, have a degree of respect for each other - great things will happen. The same for politics: if you think you’re better than someone else because of your politics - it’s only a testament to how much of an asshole you are. All politics will ever be - is opinion. I will say this about tolerance; I see so many people talking shit about other music and people who are into it: Well, the people who CREATED and PERPETUATED alternative music and it’s scenes – could easily and in their case with CREDIBILITY – talk shit about you. ++++++
