Emo Outlawed in Russia?

Wow, I guess it’s illegal to be an emo in Russia. At least it’s better than a full on extermination (yikes). As much as these ridonkulous kids annoy me, I think it’s a bit stupid for Russia to try to pass laws as lame as this one. The new laws are apparently being driven by fears that these “dangerous teen trends” encourage depression and suicide. For fuck’s sakes, that’s just as bad as blaming violence and juvenile delinquency on the media. Ever think maybe parent’s with these troubled kids are the ones to blame?
