Ok...I just found this out like a nanosecond ago. I didn’t know that emos and punk rockers are actually gangs....or against each other. That is awkward. I mean, I have lots of friends that are in either side. I am 50/50 of both. This is even more awkward than skiiers against snowboarders and rebels against devils.

Mexico concerned about clashes between rival gangs of "emos" and "punks"
Mexico, March (EFE) .- Authorities in the Mexican capital are concerned about the recent fights out by gangs of "punks" and "darks" against so-called "emos", which will not allow concentrations of antagonistic groups, said today Efe sources of capital police.
Two weeks ago at the Plaza de Armas in the city of Queretaro, 211 kilometers northwest of the Mexican capital, about two hundred youths gathered in response to a call over the Internet for expelling blows instead of the "emos", which was resulted in some injuries and some thirty detainees.
These facts were repeated last Saturday in Glorieta Insurgentes during a "pink zone ’of the Mexican capital, where several hundred" emos "gathered there and attacked a group of" punks ".
However, the presence of police averted a monumental fight between the sides, which were launched objects and bottles and some of its members were armed with sticks and pipes.
The Ministry of Public Security of the Federal District (SSP-DF) announced that when you learn that one of these groups is to focus somewhere in the city, the unit will issue alerts on websites that use related to these adolescents "clans" to prevent groups are antagonistic.
Police sources explained to capital Efe that some agents reviewed regularly Internet portals to prepare operational security when it detects a concentration.
The authorities give "priority" to the first group to make a formal request or notice to be collecting somewhere in the city.
"The rest we will dissuade, we will not allow reach the same place," the same sources indicated.
Even the authorities are willing to "allocate an area for them to carry out their event, even their access to electricity, services," as if it were any other of the hundreds of public demonstrations taking place every week in the Mexican capital.
"Emos" are a type of urban tribe which is characterized by an apology from the emotions and sensitivity. Its members are distinguished by use of tight-fitting clothes sizes small and dark colors combined with white and pink, and carried her hair dyed black with flequillo cover half of the face.
These young people face a growing rejection by groups who accuse them of being homosexual and of copying the style and ideology of the "darks", "punks" and "Gothic".
In this regard, the police chief of Mexico City, Joel Ortega, yesterday called "the groups punketos and all these other groups to tolerance" and criticized the fact that they want to attack people who are trying to conducting "a concentration calm and peaceful."
The capital’s authorities claim that they are not restricting the freedom of association and expression of its citizens, but avoiding the occurrence of events such as those of last weekend.
In his view, these are groups that are copying, via the Internet, styles confrontation outside the country, who are not religious or political.
Without giving figures, the authorities claim that there are more "punks" and "darks" "emos", among other things because they are older groups. EFE
