yeah. not sending their kids into a job that trains them to be killing would sound a little bit on the hypocritical side.

Ever since the Bush administration came into the White House, the quality of life has been going through the peehole faster than racehorse piss at the Kentucky Derby.

YOUR COMPLAINING? YOUR LUCKY! YOU DONT HAVE LITTLE MOTHERFUCKING BITCHES SITTING IN THE CORNER CRYING AND LISTENING TO THE ALL TIME GAY - GREEN FUCKING DAY!

Im serious, atleast when you listen to rock(which I dont like) they have talent, and you can headbang! and when you listen to Hip-hop/Rap/Black Music (I like) You can breakdance, robot dance etc!

The only stupid things Emos/Punks do is cry and making boys wearing gay fingernails! Fuck Emo's Fuck Punks, and fuck GreenFuckingDay.

And Have A Nice Day. :)

I dont think that they have to go to drill camp to learn to use a gun. (A Drill team is ok since the guns dont fire anyways) Martial arts, fine.

What your sugjesting is that if you learn how to hurt people, you will use that to hurt innocent people. But that is very very false, even though there is no definate study, it's just common observation that somomone with knowledge in police or military arts, (fighting) has a much higher esteem, and dicipline, and would be less likly to attack somone then a person who knew nothing about fighting. This excludes most public and private school made physed groups because they're to leaniant on the evil teenage angsthormoneinfested brats.

To the topic creator.

Alright man, this is what ya do. First off, this is against the Civil Rights Act (no racist discrimination based on one's color, religion, and CREED), the creed being punks around your school as you all share an equal belief in punk. Bring this up with the princaple, and discuss it. If he's a reasonable chap, he should get the message and convey it to the PTA bastards. If he is a prick, call up the President of the PTA or Super Attendent of your school district and threaten legal action as it goes again the Civil Rights Act and your first article freedom (freedom of speech, as speech can be related to thought which relates to belief, it is all intertwined). Hopefully, then they should back off, but if they don't, sue those fuckers into the ground.

Keep the Old Skool Punk Spirt Alive man.

OH DEAR GOD!!!
You're telling me that you can't listen to your music in school, were you should be learning and paying attention...HOW AWFUL! For god knows you don't have anything else that isn't that kind of music. It's only what...part of the day, when you should be learning, that you can't listen to your music. Jeez, get a life, i'm sure you have better things to do, like oh maybe...learn something so you can actually make something out of yourself when you get a job.

Some of you have no clue at all.

Emo (a genre name I disagree with) is a branch of hardcore, which is a branch of punk rock, which is a branch of rock in general, which is really just the blues.

How can you say 'punk' is dead? Is this because the Sex Pistols broke up? The Sex Pistols are the epitome of corporate trash; they were created to sell fashion, and Johnny Rotten is a fucking asshole.

You're denying the idea of influence, and you're completely ignoring other bands who formed at the same time and played the same style of music. What about Social Distortion, the Misfits, and the Exploited?

Green Day was a punk band at one point, and although the members might still have the same attitude, their sound has changed. Does that mean they're any less punk? I guess if punk is a sound, which it is yet isn't, then yes. They have also become mainstream, starting in 1994-1995, which seems to go against being 'punk'.

Oh, what's my point...?

Punk is an idea. Whether that idea makes you dress a certain way or hold certain other beliefs, I suppose that is up to the individual. I listen to punk music, and I wear cargo pants and band t-shirts, but does that make me a punk? Not necessarily...

There's no point. Really.

Hey, guess what! Christianity is dead. Islam is dead. Buddhism is dead. Taoism is dead... all of these things are dead. Why? Because 'the Sex Pistols' 'broke up'--Jesus and Paul are dead, Muhammad is dead, Buddha is dead, and I don't know anything about Taoism, so I'm just assuming that person is dead also.

Ideas can't survive. Once the person is dead, the ideas s/he had cease to exist.

Punk is a genera of music, not a state of wellness

the school board HAD too debate over wether too ban "anarchist" music

you mean songs with anarchist-themed lyrics? I don’t hear drums trying to take out Bush. But then again, maybe I’m misinterpreting the percussionist’s interpretation of the song.

(and yes green day too....THAT MEANS NO MORE OF THE SONG "going to pasalacqua"!..one of the greatest road trip songs ever.).

That song blows and you know it. The best is "America, Fuck Yeah"

really the mom that did this is one of those over zealous like an anus moms that think punk is devil music.W.....T.....F....

I fail to see how a butt can be motivated, but whatever

really why would someone ban punk?

They should ban pop music. Oh, wait, that's what you're really talking about.

what do they have too fear?

Fear itself. We all know that. Don't be a smart-ass

there kids listening too things that express their own angst and other emotions?

Angst? Yes. Other emotions? What emotions, you're secondary school kids. You have angst and the desire to bang your hot English teacher and possibly your best friends 13-year-old sister.

wow good for your school
if a bunch of sheep goth kids cant listen to their punk anymore how will they ever be individuals!! oh boo hoo
ive got n idea
go to class, get an education, maybe even go to university
there was nothin worse in high school than seeing all those "individuals" dressing the same and acting the same and listening to a bunch of inaudible crap
please... i know nobody actually enjoys slipnot, its just for the image... it is human nature to dislike loud abrupt noises that sound like a hundred chainsaws going off in your ear at once
seriously, how is your school being communists by taking away punk
kid, that shows how little you know, take a world history course and learn what communism is really about
try learning the violin, or piano, or some sort of instrument where u can truly learn music so u can better enjoy it

Let's see now. You say Punk is to be considered "rebellious" by your school board (By the way, if it's a private school, civil rights have no place in there, so all you morons may shove the "OMG ILLEGAL" arguments up your asses).

Why?

Let's do this. Let's compare, I don't know, "Beat on the brat", by The Ramones, with, I don't know, "Boulevard of Broken Dreams", by Greenday.

Ramones:

Beat on the brat
Beat on the brat
Beat on the brat with a baseball bat
Oh yeah, oh yeah, uh-oh.

Greenday:

I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone

Back in the day, Punk music had balls. Now, it doesn't. Simple. Case closed. End.

I listen to punk, I go to university, and I'm not a goth.

Punks and goths are not the same 'thing'. Slipknot is not punk; Slipknot is some kind of metal-grindcore hybrid.

It's comments like this that might drive people away from classical music. You're reinforcing the idea that it's an elitist genre by suggesting that everything else can't 'really' be enjoyed.

Your words are just as stereotypical as your image of these 'punk-goths'. D:

don't compare ramones with green day, we all know who wins(ramones) instead look for PUNK bands not POP PUNK BANDs. if I said left over crack was punk would they make me eat shit and kill me?...hope not.

but EMO and punk are alike, because emo came from the arse of punk. for you see in the early....uummm....(2000-2010...even though its only 05') odds. emo was born. it took over some actual punk bands, like yellow card. I know its hard too believe that yellowcard was onces a punk rock band who wasn't in the mainstream but( buy their album "where we stand" and you will see. trust me.)actually had some good music. I guess it was an arcatect(don't know how to spell that word) of your own demise type of situation.

RATM has such an absolute lack of balls that the whole thing reverses into RATM having huge balls of anti-matter, which implode at contact with the atmosphere and create a crater of about 15,000 square miles.

Come on. RATM is (was?) barely more than pseudo-rebellious, pseudo commie antics. Other than making Che Guevara popular outside the audience of Latin-American college students, they really can't be credited with shit.
I'd still listen to them before Greenday (if I had to chose at gunpoint, that is), if that makes you feel better.

Anyways. I guess all bands have their flaws, and I'm certainly not going to go running around saying that the bands I like are perfect, but this really has nothing to do with what the topic started was talking about.

While you people are inside a private school, you're subjected to its rules, as stupid as they may be. Simple as that. Also, in a side note, I believe that all punk music nowadays is totally overrated as a "rebellious" thing. In my opinion, punk died in the early 80's, get over with it.

That would be it.

Great point. You’re paying the money for the oppression, bitches! Hopefully, this isn’t the case.

Back in the day, Punk music had balls. Now, it doesn't. Simple. Case closed. End.

Okay, clearly showing pop-rock and shitty punk rock as the deciding factor. Yeah, okay.

You make the point about rebellion, but comparing the Ramones (one of the worst punk bands, in my opinion, let alone the worst musicians ever assembled) and Green Day. At one point, you could of said that they were punk, being they had punk roots (and I hate to be cliché about it, but they were influenced by the Stiff Little Fingers and the Clash). However, their lyrics are thought out and meaningful, so they couldn’t possibly be anything like the blind emotions of punk rock.

If you compared it to one of today’s “punk” bands (e.g. Anti-Flag), you’d be closer to making any point at all.

It’s bogus with every argument because you don’t need to prove your rebellious nature by the way you dress or what bands you listen to. It’s the way you think and act, ignoring the influence of others that might change how you feel.

That was great, but we aren’t talking about Rage.

Despite how much everyone flamed about what real music is, there isn’t much on rights of children in a grossly conservative state when it comes to their music.
