1. I think their intentions are good but it won't make a damn bit of difference. People who are as steadfast in their ignorance as the MCR nay-sayers are are too closed minded to see any other way but their own opinions. Similar deaths have happened so many times before, and where did anything done to protest it get us? Nowhere. Now we have labels on music to warn people that it might be offensive, which is crap. Shit, don't even get me started. The protest though - I am concerned that too many of the people there will just prove the nay-sayers' point. Which makes me sad because it doesn't represent the entire fandom.

2. While I understand her desire to be thought of as her own independent person, not just an offshoot of her husband, the simple fact is she had to have known this was coming. Like someone above me said, if she were the hugely popular one and Gee was less well known, the press and what not would refer to him the same way. I don't, however, think it's fair to assume that she's simply riding on his coattails. If that makes sense.

3. I think it's a cool collectible for some people, but I can't afford it and as much as I love MCR, what the hell would I do with that stuff?

4. After reading the comments herein, I do now. And it scares me. lmao

5. Haha I wish I did. But I'm loving reading the ones here.
