What happened to the 64 punks in Indonesia was inhuman. It is also reminder of what of part of what the scene is about. These kids went to a show looking to belong to something real and express what is inside of them. Just because they are born in an oppressive environment they were assaulted and arrested. Not because they were doing anything to hurt anyone else. Well now we have a lot of punks and bands coming together to try and help our brothers and sisters. To my friend Mike and the comp his band and many other great bands are putting together to raise funds to help. I hope your endeavor goes well. To our fellow punks in Moscow who have taken it upon themselves fight back the best way they know how. Then I commend you. To all my brothers and sisters who have forgotten what it means to be a punk….Just wake up and remember your family walks the streets of many countries and when they hurt and bleed then our scene hurts and bleeds also. Buy a comp, donate a dollar, spread the word, or pick up a brick…Just remember our scene isn’t dead…just because some of you have taken to sitting on the fence, or fell completely the right of way doesn’t mean you can’t come back. For the very least…This Punk’s fist is still raised in the air!!!!
