"Are MCR dangerous? They wear black, their music is dark: Worried parents and overjealous journalists see in My Chemical Romance a danger. They reproach the band with advising their fans to commit suicide on their new CD The Black Parade. But Singer Gerard Way get the reproach straight: "People, who claim this, haven't got anything. We want, that the people decide to live."

My Chemical Romance saving lives has become a cliche, but it is truth to some people, and the impact the band has had on those people's lives shouldn't be lessened just because it's considered a cliche now.

Stereotyping My Chemical Romance as a band that promotes self harm/suicide is incredibly offensive to us, and them. It's lazy on the part of adults and critics, who, instead of admitting that maybe they haven't been there for their kids, choose a scape goat instead. Kids don't self harm because MCR tell them too, they don't self harm because they are emo and they think that's a right thing to do. That's something parents, adults and the wider world needs to know and respect.

Wow, this is great! I admire the creator. I've been feeling that there should be a project to dispel MCR suicide accusations after reading series of articles accusing them of it. Thank you for this!
I shall write when I have the chance and time.
