dman htahst fucked up, sorry to hear subliminiasnklsd ... they're not classifying all straight edgers as gangmebers but they're saying theres a gang called straight edgers or soemthing that go round beating peopel up who smoke or drink...and thats pretty fucking sad...
well I'm gonna start beating the shit out of people that aren't smoking and drinking. My gang will be the Roughies
Im gonna join the Roughies! lmao
Ok, I'm going to post once more in this thread and be done with it. I know TONS of straight-edgers. Like I said was one of them myself at one point in time. I never heard of a straight-edger jumping someone. Likewise I never heard of a stoner jumping someone. I'm sure both exist. People are fucked up, but to label an entire "type" of people as violent, just because some asshole is a douche is pretty fucked up.
As a side note, the no sex thing is largely based on the particular group (usually dictated by location) of straight-edgers you are dealing with. None of the straight-edge kids I knew abstained from sex. Kind of like saying a weed-head is someone who trips on shrooms. Sometimes they do, but not everyone.
Hope this clears some things up.
Sorry to hear about your friend sublimnial, also sorry to hear that your area has some fucked up straight-edge kids.
Yea, i gusse the kids in my area are just giving straight-edges a bad name but the ones in my area i hate and i want to jump them but then my pot-head side comes over and i realize Karma will work its ways.
People have their right to their own lifestyle choice, but I agree with sub, there are ppl like that at my school, they say stoners are dumbasses just cuz a few in our school have nothing on their mind but weed. So i tell them to fuck off, Im on honour roll and my grades are A's and B's so fuck em, im smarter than them and i smoke usually once a day. Just smoke on fuck what ppl think, this is your life and you do what you want like they do. Peace...SMOKE ON!

Alot of you are really being judgemental. Sometimes straight edge kids are judgemental and are completely prejudice to people that aren't. Those people are morons.
Personally, I LOVE the straight edge concept. Don't disrespect it, it's meant to keep the kids safe.
What it is:
Don't harm yourself with hard drugs, don't let soft drugs cloud your mind, don't get sick or diseases from sex, etc. And lead a healthy life in general.
Is there anything wrong with it? No. The band who started the concept (minor threat) has even said it's okay to have a beer with your friends every once in awhile, and if you break edge, just start back on the right path.
The people who are dicks about it are called hardliners, (they do it because they're elitests).
It started in the 80s when hard drugs were taking over the DC area... and alcohol was becoming popular amongst kids and young adults. Heroin, speed, and all that were available. And of course, some people came along and said "Fuck it! We don't need it! We don't need to risk our minds and bodies for stupid shit!". So they made the pledge essentially.
And about sex, you just can't have casual sex, if you really love the person, or have been with them awhile, then it's okay.
And some people have extended their belief's into veganism, etc.
But it's basically whatever you want to make it.
It's essentially, no casual sex, no drinking to stay healthy and keep your mind right, no drugs to harm you, no bud to slow you down... etc. You can start being edge after a period of alot of drugs, you can become edge again if you mess up... etc
It's a good concept, I'll never look down on it. What's wrong with wanting to be healthy? The only problem is people got shit so twisted with the concept, that they feel like they have to be edge because it's they love the hxc scene, or because they're scared or won't be accepted if they're not. Who knows.
