Iraqi Militia Kill Emos, Which Is Waste Of Bullets Really

Poor Iraq. If it wasn't having enough trouble, emos have made their way there being overly sensitive about everything and single-handedly holding up the black hair dye industry, listening to their awful, awful music.

For some inexplicable reason, over 50 Iraqi emos have reportedly been killed over the last few months by conservative militia.

They surely would've done it themselves if they were left to it?

BBC News reports that over 50 teenagers, 'who listen to rock music and wear alternative clothing' have been shot or beaten to death over the last few months.

These killings are apparently a response to the Iraqi interior ministry's declaration that these kids are devil worshippers. Furthermore, in Baghdad, leaflets have been doled out containing the names of young people saying that they should be punished.

In a statement on his website, Shia cleric Moqtada al-Sadr described emo youths as "crazy and fools".

"They are a plague on Muslim society, and those responsible should eliminate them through legal means."

Daft really, seeing as the worst these emo kids are likely to do is bug people with their haircuts, clog up Skyrim forums and create a hole in the ozone layer with all that hairspray.

Wait.

This isn't funny at all. Bloody hell. How awful this all is.
