If you guys think it's art gimme then your address so I can come over and put my art on the front of YOUR house. What? you don't want me to spraypaint your house? Neither did the guy who owns the wall that this CRAP is painted on.

I'm not real keen on real art so I'm not impressed with shit that anybody can paint illegally on a wall.

Bullshit.
My brother lives in a bad neiborhood and theres shit spraypainted all over everything. Houses, walls, dumbsters,street signs, you name it some punk has pointed a spraycan at it. Taggers are human garbage.

If it's legal, fine. No problem there. Most of it's not though. I've never seen any graffiti that I liked. It's all an eyesore to me.

thats bcuz alot of gangs use paint to designate their areas with shitty tags that have no skill or style at all. real artists dont fuck around like that. i agree tho there is alot of bullshit tagging that makes stuff look like shit, but i respect the good street art that i see.

there's no use in beating you like a dead horse, so if you don't like the art, don't say shit, nobody cares that you live in a piece of shit place that looks like crap. freaken chill and smoke a dube then yell at some hulligans.

sux he got busted, sux even worse he got busted by a relative.. that in itself is just terrible. down with snitching! that is some sick work, very unique.

i used to tag alot when i was a teen... it was fun, more than just vandalizing. about making a statement, an impact on things in a world where making an impact without using violence is increasingly difficult. it was also about doing something and getting away with it... these days anything that keeps guns and crack out of a kids hands shouldnt be viewed as a terrible crime with jail time, its a rediculous waste of resources for the state justice system, court costs, housing an inmate... for what? some spray paint? lets get real. kids will be kids and at some point in there kid careers, they will all get into trouble in some way or another and putting a creative kid in the system in jail is just gonna set him back in life more ways than im willing to type about. i think his punishment should be to clean the walls he painted, perhaps it will teach him the value of hard work and maybe deter him from having more run ins with the law in the future...

as i get older however i can see how vandalism is a problem... i mean im far from rich, closer to poor, and because of my tax status im in a pretty high bracket, and it sickens me enough to see the problems that exist in this country from misuse of public funds, and i dont really want my 1/3 of my income that gets donated to the gov every week to be spent on scrubbing walls a buncha kids have painted up to get there kicks. on the other hand, anyone with a basic knowledge of artistic technique can see that this kid is an artist in the making, his technique and use of color to blend styles together shows a real potential, and with a little proper training who knows? maybe he can get a succesful job as a graphic designer or something.... kids need encouragment to be something, not slapped down by society everytime they make a mistakebongsmilie

Didn't say i lived in a bad place. Said my bro does. It's ugly. It's a crime. Talk about beating a dead horse. Jesus. So if you think it looks cool it's ok to destroy other peoples property. Irresponsible and criminal but i understand your viewpoint. I'm done with this useless thread.

4 1/2 is way to much that probly what a drugdealer would get..it also depends how much damage he did cus i got caught once but i denied everything cus they didnt catch me in the act and the judge threw out the case becuase lack of evidence haha
 
I say tag any and all buildings...people get over that shit...jail is not necessary "hey man, buy some paint and wash that graffiti off" <wow could the punishment be that simple? Just like execution, makes no fucking since. "You murdered somebody! So in order to punish you for murder is murder!" "Weed does what? It makes people happy? Fuck that throw them bitches in jail!" I believe he is getting 4 years. The justice in this country is fucked.

Lol :twisted::twisted::twisted:
 
Artists use canvas or get permission from an owner of whatever they are painting. If you are defacing someone elses property you should go directly to Jail. Do not pass go.
Screw you dude if you think artist use just canvas. Part of why its so beautiful is because it has to be done discretly.

all these people comparing graf to writing inside someones home or car.. its completely different, most graf is done on ugly walls no one gives a shit about owned by the state. Its unbelievable people would even consider jailing someone for 4 and a half years for this and it shows how controlled our society is.
Even if you use the anology of drawing on someones car, if you cauht someone drawing on your car you wouldnt lock them in a cage for 4 and a half years? no. so why should the state. rapists get less than that.

Grafiti is art that cant be drawn on canvas, the whole idea of it is its on some public space leaving your mark as an individual, just like it was when the ancient egyptians did it. so saying 'i love grafitti but you should only do it on your own property' is like sayin i love tattoos drawn on rugs. I guess either you get it or you dont but theres no way he should be put in jail for it, at the very worst make him go round and paint over it, but 4 and a half years jail? come on..
