I live in Corpus and graffiti is a major problem and as Barney Fife said, "Nip it! Nip it! Nip it!"! BTW, my neighbor's new BMW was spraypainted the other night as was every house on the block two streets over.marksiwel wrote:http://www.kiiitv.com/news/local/79310347.html
8 years in jail for graffiti charges?! without Parole!
How is this helping the community by turning this kid into a Career Criminal?
We should lock up the people we are afraid of, not the people we are MAD at.
What a waste of a judge, she's a democrat too (what do you expect?)
Tagging is so much a problem that the city has a full-time graffiti removal crew riding around every day in a high dollar paint removal truck funded by taxpayers...while the owner of private property has only a few days to remove the graffiti before being cited by the city and fined.
I'm 100% in support of this particular judge as she WILL take action as opposed to others here in town that let taggers go with a $150.00 fine. Enough is enough I say.
