“UncouthYouth: What do you think of the jail sentences being handed out for graffiti these days? Im pretty sure you turned up at the Courts of Justice last valentines didn’t you?

Drax: Yes I was there. I thought it disgusting that a young man should die in prison over “graff offences”. How can the powes that be in this country pontificate over “pios zealotism” in Iran, Afghanistan, North Korea etc and imprison its youth for what amounts to no more than an over exuberant sense of self expression? I’d truly love to see the sons (Or grand sons) of the judges that give prison sentences for graff end up in prison themselves for such an offence then watch the hypocrites whine and protest or more likely use their “old boys” network to get them released. It disgusts me. Society has the right to protect itself but it does not have the right to destroy people that dont play by its rules… House arrest. Community service. Cleaning trains in a “Im a graffiti twat pink suit”. Fines etc. It has the tools. Imprisonment for such offences is the weapon of a vindictive state and a state that lacks compassion for its own people is doomed to fail. . . . Nonces, drunk drivers, wife beaters and tax evaders get an easier ride than graffiti writers. That will not be forgotten and when the oppurtunity arrises the sinned against, angry, dissenfranchised, miss treated and discarded practioners of this sub culture will happily and prejudicially DESTROY THE SYSTEM”
