Subject: a new affirmation of the X

About 6 years ago I made a conscious choice to become straight edge, becuase it was symbolic to me of the ability of myself for both freedom of choice, and also of will to resist the trendy society. about 2 years ago i made the conscious decision to not be straight edge and to not be affiliated with it in any way due to the ultra-militant earth-crisis type crew. I saw Karl beat a kid up in Tallahassee Florida for smoking a cigarette at his show. Next time I saw them I made sure I had a cigarette...my protest against his infliction of his will upon another human being against his choice. straight edge had lost its meaning and had made me very sad...i had been betrayed in the name of it. a few weeks ago i was looking back and found my ebullition comp(two 12"...Monster X was the first song) so I came to reminice about hardcore in general from when i was a teenager...reading the lyrics to some of your old songs has reaffirmed me that there are people out there that do agree with what my view of what sxe is. i feel refreshed, and i owe it to the Monster
