christ

now everyone will understand the hardships of being a maggot

was high on drugs

This sucks a lot and proves that drugs are bad(puts on D.A.R.E shirt). Every Friday night their are so many of these stoner, hot topic fuckers hanging outside it pisses me off.

Fuck kids like that, man.

**** all the kids who think doing drugs make them cool

in b4 politicians blame the murder on metal music

now this is why maggots have a bad image

in b4 politicians blame the murder on metal music

It's Columbine again. Prepare for a backlash against Slipknot and their fans.

I hate stupid retard kids like this who give a bad stereotype of Slipknot fans or metal fans in general.

Blah.

Fuck me Tipper Gore. All we need is Dee Snider and we'll be fine if this situation gets out of hand. And I can't actually belive MTV played Psychosocial on tv, that's pretty rad.

"All we need is Dee Snider and we'll be fine if this situation"

God no.

lol yes guice because cannabis makes you more violent than heavy metal


OH WAIT LOL

That's pretty f*cked up.

@Otherside. ^^^^Thats true Sandy.

Dee Snider is the man Asberg, you kidding me?This Message Edited On 08.19.08

RIP.


That's just fucked up. Does South Africa have a death penalty?

Shitty buzz.

[QUOTE=]@Otherside. ^^^^Thats true Sandy.[/QUOTE]

wat

lol i cant believe some of you are suggesting that marijuana caused this kid to kill someone

It said he was high on drugs, but didn't specify what kind of drugs.

Every Friday night their are so many of these stoner, hot topic ****ers hanging outside it pisses me off.

drugz r bad lulz

He probably realized how awful his favorite band is.

Community is already blaming metal for the incident, I saw it in a follow up article here: http://www.metalunderground.com/news/details.cfm?newsid=38469

It's so damn easy to make them the problem when in truth it's almost insignificant. The drugs, the lifestyle...everything is overlooked because metal is an easy target.
Drugged up idiots like this make me sick...I just hope the parents of that one kid are holding up ok.

in before corey taylor replies that people = shit and need to fuck off suggesting they are the cause

Well, speaking as a South African, this is totally bizarre. For what it is worth, here is Johannesburg newspaper report of the event:

http://www.mg.co.za/article/2008-08-18-krugersdorp-school-rocked-by-satanic-killing

See? You all made fun of him for listening to Slipknot. HE TOLD YOU HE WAS HARDCORE!

What I would like to know is what drugs he was using. If he was on psychedelics or worse, crack,coke,heroin, then the drugs were mostly the problem.

If he was just using weed, then there was something wrong with him in general. He was probably sick in the head. He said a voice told him to do it. He was probably schizophrenic. The fact that he was a slipknot fan is just ammo for the anti-metal pussies to to attempt to ban metal, which never works because you cant ban freedom of speech which applies to music as well. Let the extremists talk. The worse they can do is put "parental advisory" on the albums, and that has already been done.

you guys are fucking retarded. the article clearly states that the boys primary motive was "satan"

hopefully policy-makers will wake up and pass proactive legislation to regulate the influence of this "satan" on our youth.This Message Edited On 08.19.08

what I want this guy to do is stop soiling my mother tongue

No, but if you are white and stop at traffic lights with your car door unlocked that's kind of like the death penalty there ^_^

cynic

But Slipknot aren't metal...

They're just a harder synth-rock.

Whites make up 11% of the population there :confused:

Stupid kids though with their swords. This Message Edited On 08.19.08

Also. NINJAS DON'T USE KATANAS! SAMURAIS DO! Do your research, you culturally ignorant douchebags.

In a realated news story: Local Nirvana Fan Reads Forum.

Today some kid who likes Nirvana read a forum on the Internet. It is totally Nirvana's fault for this kid's... read-i-ness.

BTW, he was also on drugs.

claimed Satan had told him to kill the children.

Does South Africa have a death penalty?

There sure are some fucked up people in this world.

Where the fuck does it say he was high on weed on not something like cocaine or heroin?

Slipknot aren't metal though! They're synth music with a few growls.

what the hell?!!! people like this give everyone a bad name....

neat

thats fucked up

Fuck! Slipknot sucks by the way.

Do u support it?

I think it's one of the most satanic things that ever existed in this wonderful world.

Slipknot a'int real.

but "satan made him do it" hahahaha

I would not be suprised if it was mushrooms or something like that. I've seen people do some weird shit while on that crap.

Thats awful. I'd doubt the "drug" was weed or a pshycedelic such as LSD or Mushrooms. Could have been PCP, I dunno. Still, if your an idiot before using a substance, you'll be an idiot afterwards as well, seems like the case here. Some substances can be useful for self exploration, but there are morons like this who obviously have no idea what they are doing when they use them, and that only causes problems.

This is insane. He probably thought he was really really super cool when he did this. Loser.

Yeah.This Message Edited On 08.19.08

lol, I remember this one time the DARE teacher said "Marijuana could cause incredibly deadly cancer just from a few puffs".

This couldn't of been from weed, i've used many different kinds often and i've never had any murderous feelings and neither have my friends this person had to have some types of mental issues. Or he was on shrooms or lsd, though I've never had problems with those everybody has a different experience.
Not sure what crack and the other superbad drugs do to you...

uhhmm.. combustion07...
I should probably contact the FBI now.
lol

major style points for sword

lol

Yeah the sword is fucking metal. A bit too metal for a Slipknot fan if you ask me.This Message Edited On 08.19.08

This couldn't be from weed. Or maybe you're just joking.

horrible place to be joking around

To RNR not you btw

I'm glad..
I got scared of you when I saw that 40% of your musical taste is Death Metal lol

lol

...and when u said you've tried lsd and mushrooms.
I recommend a therapy dude, you don't wanna be like him

I only did them once.

This is the most ignorant thread I have ever seen in my entire life.

I also recommend Elliott Smith, maybe it helps avoiding your violent thoughts lol
OK I got too far now haha

Theres nothing wrong with doing drugs, if you know how to control yourself and do them in the right amount
this person was probably retarded and decided "I'm gonna do too much acid and dress as Joey Jordison" and whatnot
its not the drugs fault
its also he mental stability when he took them
and because he was a slipknot fan

south africa needs sword restriction laws

this is what happens when you listen to shitty bands

If we were in the medieval era, he would be wearing chainmail

Where was his parents? Work or some BS like that?

Idon'tbuyit



Really a shame though

pathetic.

I'm glad I don't listen to metal lol

Funny... when I do drugs and listen to Slipknot, the only thing Satan tells me to do is build sandcastles.

Sucks that it looks like every member of slipknot is capable of doing such a thing because of their Wes Craven-esque image.

expect a serious protest against slipknot. how can you make music like that, and not expect some crazed fan to do drugs and talk to satan?

lmfao

Pretty messed up stuff. He was on drugs so I think solely drugs should get the blame. And yes, Dee Snider is the man.

the kid obviously has some psychological problems, anyone who becomes so immersed in something as simple and tactless as slipknot to begin with has a few screws loose.

this is crazy

Big lol @ the stupidity of the comments regarding drugs here.

lol dude liek drugs r bad liek sum1 i no did shrooms n marijana n went crzy

he was most likely on acid

[quote=jpat]this person was probably retarded and decided "I'm gonna do too much acid and dress as Joey Jordison" and whatnot

its not the drugs fault[/quote]
Yeah I guess the "too much acid" part is irrelevant. And everyone saying that there is no way weed can do this is obviously disregarding the fact that marijuana is often laced with other drugs and hallucinogens, and I doubt South Africa is a good source of pure weed.

If the guy was trippin' balls, and thought that Satan was speaking to him but he was really phoning random numbers then maybe. Just maybe drugs are the blame.

[quote=me]laced with other drugs and hallucinogens[/quote]
way to totally ignore the most important point of that post

and this is why i don't do drugs in a nutshell, because i'd get caught up with retarded people like this.

It's Columbine again. Prepare for a backlash against Slipknot and their fans.

^
let's not forget that during Columbine, they tried to accuse Rammstein of being the main influence of the shooters, just because one of them had a Rammstein bumper sticker.
Honestly, why the hell did the kid dress up like Joey Jordison? I mean, it's bad enough that he killed someone, but now there's going to be a lot of unnecessary controversy and backlash against Slipknot

and this is why i don't do drugs in a nutshell, because i'd get caught up with retarded people like this.

lol i like murderdolls and marilyn manson, so i must have murderous tendencies!!!1 FUCK YEAH KILL MISS AMERICA... and everyone else [/sarcasm]

lots of people are killed every day without the influence of Slipknot and drugs. those are just fun coincidences
although he did have a sword

i wonder how many people have gone on killing sprees wearing an ABBA shirt, or KC and the Sunshine Band shirt? I bet its none

Im sure people have killed people with a Beatles shirt, or any really popular band, mainly because their are lots of them. Beatles are the cause of murder!

He probably realized how awful his favorite band is.

The drugs are probably what caused the vision or hearing of Satan, but he'd have to be a devil worshipper to bother listening, the slipknot shirt or whatever was probably a coincidence, either that or he didnt have a upside down pentagram shirt so simply put on the next satanic looking thing he could find.
Drugs can do bad things but usually music and drugs are the things that STOP people from going crazy, because they can't live without it.

R.I.P.

However, the news article is very vague....I highly doubt this kid did the unfortunate things he did due to the music he was listening to....in fact nowhere in the article does it state that the music was involved at all: only that he was wearing a Joey Jordison costume. For all you know he bought the costume randomly. If he had walked into a costume store and randomly bought a Freddie Kreuger costume would we blame the Nightmare On Elm St. films? I just hope that the music industry doesn't recieve unnecessary, unfounded backlash for this horrible incident. In defense of another love of my life, they NEVER specify Marijuana to be the drug he was on when he did this. That's like saying he was "listening to music"...so we'll blame instrumental jazz for the killing, because hey, it's music. For all you know he was yayed out and popping LSD but A) Slipknot and metal in general and B) Marijuana deserve NO direct criticism or blame for this whatsoever....

um holy shit

dont know what exactly to say

It's easy to blame metal for this, since you have people to sue money from...

gayest thread ever. where are the elitists to post some good comments when you need them.

I doubt cannabis is the cause. I know a hell of a lot of people who listen to heavy metal and get stoned all the time, they've never had anything like that happen (obviously). I'm not comparing Slipknot to heavy metal, btw.
Cannabis is too mild to cause those kind of effects, I think. LSD, maybe, probably a combination of drugs. Really, I think this guy must have been nuts in the first place.

R.I.PThis Message Edited On 08.20.08

Just for the record, the kid wasn't high on drugs although his friends did say that he looked as if he "lost his mind" just before the incident.

He was involved with satanism but was otherwise a generally "normal" kid.

Guess looks can be deceiving

O yeah and he did listen to Slipknot music and was a fan of the bands "look". He made the mask himself.
However, to blame the band for the murder is stupid according to me

O yeah and he did listen to Slipknot music and was a fan of the bands "look". He made the mask himself.

If the boy was only wearing a Jordison mask, this could very easily be unrelated to Slipknot.
A fact I think everyone in the world needs to face: Some people are just flat-out fucking crazy. If you're really so desperate for something to blame, look for the snapping point, which in this situation could be hallucinatory drugs, but you still can't put all the blame on one thing...

He was involved with satanism but was otherwise a generally "normal" kid.

We're missing a pretty important point here. Where the fuck did he get a sword?
