Thats right watch this video if your gothic or even if your not support us all. We are NOT freaks just because we look or act a little different than the rest.We are NOT freaks because of the music we listen to. We are NOT freaks for how we believe. You know what makes us freaks.Its the close minded people that think they are better than us when they are NOT....So listen to this song watch this video and let your voice be heard.....I AM AGAINST GOTHIC DESCRIMINATION .....True Lord Lestat
TO ALL THE HATERS
PEACE,LOVE&FREAKINESS

The above is the bulletin I'm referring to. After I reposted it a friend sent the following message to my inbox and I feel she has a very valid point.
This is what she wrote: "Akasha, While I have nothing against goths in general, I do have something against someone telling me fuck God or Christ. That is being closed minded as much as someone being close minded about the goth lifestyle. I believe like the artist in the song states at the end that we should be true to ourselves and be who we are and not try to force others to live in some conformed life that they are are not ready to live in. You are perfectly happy living a goth lifestyle today but who knows what you will want 5, 10 or 20 years from now. I certainly am not doing what I expected when I was your age. But I have learned to always listen to my friends, one of which is you, and I agree discrimination of any sort is wrong. No matter what is being discriminated against, it means someone's rights are being trampled on. Our forefather's fought for us and men and women continue to fight for us to pursue our own individual happiness and no one should take that away. So thank you for bringing this to my attention. I will certainly keep an open mind and wish you well in your goals of attaining what you want. Lori (Bluebrd)" I got to thinking and instead of sending my reply privately I decided to post here instead so everyone might take a moment to read it.
My reply: I agree. Saying "fuck God/Jesus is totally wrong. I don't believe in forcing religion/beliefs on anyone as it has never been forced on me. All my life, I have been given the opportunity and freedom to experience many different religions. Knowing all the while that no matter which I chose I would receive 100% love and support from my loved ones. As for knowing if the goth lifestyle is what I'll want in the years to come well, it's who I am. A lot of people just say they're goth to try and fit in somewhere. I however have been this way as long as I can remember. In elementary school I tried to conform to what the general population deems as being 'normal', but all I succeeded in doing is making myself miserable. I realized that my true friends would accept me no matter how I looked, talked, believed etc. Discrimination of any kind is wrong and needs to stop, but until we all learn to accept people for who and what they are it will continue to thrive. Wicca and goth lifestyle is my choice. I can promise you now though that I will never force my beliefs on anyone. I wish nothing but the brightest of blessings for all.
Peace&Love Cassie (♥Akasha♥)
