You know, Pen...in a strange way, you are carrying the same attitude that perhaps that young man is.

Think about it.

You learn to switch from "grumping about getting screwed" to not getting screwed in the first place. The best way to do this is to trust very few people and have faith in even fewer.

Most of the time the "emo" scene isn't about depression but just another way to 'look cool'. The idea is look like a transsexual by wearing clothes too small for you and always keep at least one eye covered by hair that looks like it got caught in a lawn mower.

If that is true, at least I'm carrying the attitude without looking like a fucking pansy-ass freak. Also, I don't expect I'll be committing any gruesome crimes in my lifetime.

A may be a passing "cool thing" to do for most of them, but I suspect the kid in the pic is too far gone for that.

Remember this Pen: Looks ain't everything.

And besides that, you have no way of knowing what, if any, crimes that person will commit. And I have to wonder, if folk that do commit crimes were not written off by mainstream society in the first place, maybe you would find far less criminals at all.

Your suspicions of that person have made you afraid, have made you exclude him, have made you hate him...

Pity such fear as that which you live with.

OhDear
Maybe mainstream society would be less apt to write them off if they wouldn't exhibit such fucked-up behavior in the first place.
