    Rape and assault are not acceptable in ANY form, in ANY community. Read the link below, and join us in informing our community to stand against this.

    If someone on your street was a known rapist, but threw the biggest parties, would you still pay to go to them? In the same way that your answer should be "no" to this question, you shouldn't support a band by going to their shows and buying their merch when a member has been known to not only force himself on any woman, but specifically those who are underage.

    Read this article, and obviously make your own decisions. If you're interested in spreading the word to keep this vermin out of our community, come back here and check out some of the ideas we have (and please feel free to add your own!).

    Also, if you have personal experience with this, feel free to check out this info here:

    "The number of women who are starting to come out with their stories of Jorge is growing daily. If you would like to contribute any part of your interactions with him in a follow up blog or possible website, anonymously, please feel free to email JorgeAssaultedMe@gmail.com and thank you again for reading this and sharing the story with your friends in bands."

    Never liked 'em anyway. If that's the kind of thing you're into, I recommend G.B.H.

    In order to boycott them I'd have to start listening to their overrated crap. As above, they're a cheap GBH imitation at best.

    Well, fuck. I've been to a Casualties show and I had a great time, and another one is coming up in a few weeks, and I wanted to go to that too.

    But now, it looks like I'm going to need to grow up and make a bit of a choice here.

    Moral of the story: Ignorance is bliss, but more so weakness.

    It would also be worth boycotting/contacting the bands who continue to play with said band from New York.

    Millions of dead cops, Wartorn, AcXDC, Negative approach, and Krum Bums are all still ready to play with the casualties despite this recent call-out.

    AcXdc defends their decision on their facebook page by stating that there is "reason for doubt"

    This is rape culture

    The MDC website says that you can contact Dave from MDC at this email address: mdcops AT hotmail.com

    AcXDc has a big online presence; I'm sure you could accost them on facebook or tumblr although Sergio can be pretty thick headed in situations like this

    I'm not sure how to contact the other bands but will post info if I can find any

    So refreshing to see that no shitheads have been coming in with "it's not proven" and "why didn't she bring this up 10 years ago?" like in some other places. I love punx. :)

    These bastards get what they deserve. Seeing the success this facebook page had, we should start something similar against The Exploited :)

    The Casualties are lame poser fashion punk. They're just a poor man's Exploited, and The Exploited (aside from Big John Duncan) are bunch of fencewalkers (hell they kicked out the afformentioned Big John Duncan for being gay).
