Lost and Confused in a World Full of Assholes.

Right now I am really confused about what to do. A good friend of mine stood up for what she believed in. Where did that get her? Harassed by a legion of mindless 16 year fansheep and told by the main offended that he would smashed her face in for six bucks and a Dr Pepper.

All this because she dared to call out Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance on being proud to call a 16 year old girl a cunt and shit bag.

When did the world come to this? That if a group of teenage girls, see you as the hottest piece of male as on the plant you have free rein to say or do what you want to and about women. What happened to standards? What happened to holding people to those standards? That if someone criticizes you for something you say or do, you don't respond with acts or threats of violence.
When did it become Okay, for grown men to call little girls cunts? If said man is cute why is it seen as a complement?

I am not that old and I am by no means old fashion. I have called women whores, hos and sluts. It was wrong I know that and I should have used my head to find a better way of dealing with them. Sometimes it does come down to being in the moment. But then I stop and think, what would have happened had my friend been in the same room as him. Would he have smashed her face in. Would that legion of teenage girls have cheered him on. Yelling she deserved it because she question their idol.

Why has it come to this? Why isn't there someone we can report this to who would really do something about. Who would not only take Mr. Way down for doing that but explain to those girls why it was wrong what he did. That no person male or female should do that. That is is alright for you to be upset and speak up about it.

Then there is me. What should and can I do about this. Should I report him to WB and Twitter? Would they do anything if I did? Should I twitter him myself and calling him out? Once again would it help?

Part of me really wants to rip him a new one but i don't think it would help. I use to do it all the time. Even if it wasn't directly to him I know that he knew about it. Now, I just sit back an ignore it. Out of fear that saying anything will just give him the one thing he really wants. Attention. I know from experience that screaming will do nothing. It will fall on deaf ear. I boycott but there are still enough people giving him money that it doesn't really matter.

I am the one who is back against a wall, powerless to do a damn thing yet he is running his mouth off calling people names as if he is somehow the victim.

Because of my race I have to put up with racism. Because I am a woman I have to put up with sexism. It seems that in the year 2011 instead of getting better things are getting worse. When a pale emo loser can call a young woman a cunt shit bag and threaten another woman and all he gets is a pat on the back.
