Sooo, I need to ask... Anybody in the Bristol area on these message boards?.

Based on the fact that I was in work today and I heard some girls mentioning the protest, and INO[ all positive comments btw.]. I was busy working so I didn't have time to stop and talk to them.
ALSO, in other news, I worked last summer, for the News Of The World, and Beat Bullying... I have suggested they come down as take some pictures. Thoughts?
Honestly you guys this is huge.....
I'm excited for the 31st and I'm pretty proud to call myself an MCR fan.

This is so amazing, I can't believe how big this protest has gotten, and how quickly! Though, I gotta say, that second video was fuckedd up. =/ If they're serious, then that's really, really bad.

I'll be with you guys in spirit; keep the faith!

Same - I just saw those right now, and they're so obviously fake.
They should be reported to youtube or something...

For some reason it feels like the protest is taking place tomorrow, but there's still over a week left.

Those Videos are FUCKED up, thats exactally what we are trying tpo show we're not, and Gee would be pissed, he is already not fond of the idea of the protest, these people who made the videos are fucked in the head, dont know what the music is really saying, or dont care about the music or the band, these people have pissed me off, even if it is a joke.

This is my reply to the people on kerrang when their website stops being so fucking spaztic:

I think we should all act like emos. Whenever the government is screwing us over or there's something happening in the world that is unjust we should all moan and whine and bitch and complain about it. Right now there are people being massacred in Darfur and many other places, oil prices are skyrocketing, the US is stuck in a war that was waged purely for political gain, jobs are being outsourced, and education (at least in the US) is laughable. Yet people are just sitting on their asses and not speaking out against any of it.

But a girl, a teenage girl, has emasculated all of us by having the balls to organize a protest because she was pissed at her favorite band being unfairly scapegoated by the media. With the right to protest being sacred in the UK (and other democracies) there is nothing holding people back but their own self-doubt and laziness. The true pansies aren't the MCR fans but those who are telling them to "grow up."

i know that it already says this on the protest site, but all you guys who are going to the protest,
please please PLEASE dont dress "emo" on purpose.
i am so sick of the headlines saying "emo's protest".
sure i dont think you should change yourselves because of what someone else says,
im just so tired of the fandom always being stereotyped as "emo".

oh and why are people talking about gerard not liking the idea of protesting?
proof please.
im sure they've caught wind of whats happening, with the amount of media coverage this has gotten, and i believe they'd be proud of us standing up for something we believe in. they'd thank us for not taking anyones shit.
