When they tried to get on a bus, the bus driver said, "No Dogs allowed".

If they don't like it, they shouldn't call attention onto themselves. The comments come with the looks, get over it.

"I got a bit angry and called him a fascist pig."

Typical comment from that group.

As much as I think they are stupid, that does not change the situation. The bus driver had no right to refuse them transportation, which is what this is about. It's discrimination.

Don't walk your soon-to-be wife on a leash might be the moral of this story.

I don't understand your topic title in the slightest.

lol, goths. Everyone should be accepted, blah blah blah. Anyone who says that crap is a total tool. They dress and act out of the norm, and so they shall be treated. Although in the case of refusing business on how they look...that shouldn't be allowed, as Tural said...it's discrimination.

That's their choice, as weird as it is, and unless there is harm coming to the woman, I see nothing really wrong with it.

As for my opinion on the matter, I agree with Tural.

I knew someone was going to say "lol goths"

No, you're right, he didn't need to do that. But, it doesn't change the fact that they need to expect something like that to happen sometimes.

Twofold:

1) Comment on the article.
2) Find a picture in your collection that contrasts a typical goth against a completely normal background

No, they do not. They should not have to expect being discriminated against.

But that doesn't change the fact that they will be discriminated against. It's human.

ICH BIN DER REITER, DU BIST DAS ROSS!

I agree with Kirk, that guy is a badass, holy shit. If I saw him on the street I'd high five him and then do a sexy dance.
"I got a bit angry and called him a fascist pig."
OMG, HE IS. I missed that the first time but yeah, total badass. Hawt shit.

Stupid bus driver...I could've understood the comment, if I heard it, I would probably laugh, but not letting them get on? Stupid.

They are two entirely different things.

Emo:
