I thought this was interesting. If you go www.deadname.com you can find out your Goth name. My name was Bloody Angel. Yep, that's about right. Anyway, while in physical therapy yesterday I was watching a newscast about the school shooting in Cleveland yesterday. There was a bulleted list describing the shooter. The first bullet point was "Goth." So the list looked something like this:
• Goth
• Slapped mother
• Attempted suicide
• Bad student
There were a couple others but like ALL the other bullet points made sense. The fact that he was classified as a "goth" is what bothered me because I went to school with like 95% Goth kids but they were the nicest most talented people you could meet. So it pissed me off that on the news they were classifying a goth kid in the same category as someone who would hit his mother and open fire at a school. It could be any kid but now they are all "look out for those scary kids in black." In any case, his mother probably deserved it.
Peace out,
Bloody Angel
P.S. I was NOT goth in high school; I was the weird one.
