om...

like i say... you think of it like that but it isn't nothing like
that. no graffiti writer would think of throwing a 'bucket of paint'
over someones property (house, car etc). get the facts right before
trying to look smug.


I see. 99% (or more) of the population think that it looks crap and an
eyesore (aside from it being vandalism of someone elses property). You and
your handful of retards think that it is beautiful and therefore you are
right and everyone else is wrong. So you choose to force your viewpoint (and
your scruffy artwork) on the silent majority. That all sounds rather
reminiscent of a Mr. A. Hitler of Austria in the 1930s to me. Perhaps it is
time that we, the silent majority, rose up and castrated these little
scrotes.

Incidentally, the truth and the intention behind your lies is obvious from
your e-mail address ("much_damage*hotmail.com"). Pathetic.

In the past my cousin was arrested in Bristol for being a graffiti artist.
Instead of just dishing out punishment he was allocated a wall of his own to
paint. This type of approach was very successful.

Maybe London Underground could allocate trains to the talented artists. One
other train could be markd out so the taggers could have a portion each for
thier signature.

Graffitti artist are very protective of thier work and would punish anyone
who dared to touch it.

How about they buy some canvas or board and paint on that and leave other
people's property alone?

Underground trains are someone's property, stations and bulidings and
bridges are also someone's property. Signals and OLE masts are someone's
property. When I am on a train I do not want to see it.

I do not like any of the ideas put forward for the forth plinth in Trafalgar
Square. Does that mean Ken should abandon the idea. If the owners of the
train would like it painted it is thier choice.
If you are so adamant to get rid of this nuisance what do you suggest.

None of the graffiti you see on London Underground trains involves any
kind of talent, so I don't think they'd have any talented artists to
allocate trains to.

Why on earth should LUL do this? This would cost money which could be
far better spent on making the system work properly.

Having just returned from Hong Kong where all the rail / mass transit
lines are spotlessly clean despite carrying millions of people of day I
could not help but notice the difference at Acton Town this morning
where I saw loads of graffiti daubed all over the walls and then of
course we have the lovely scratched train windows.

Give me Hong Kong standards of maintenance, upkeep and reliability
please. No delays at all, everything in good order, very frequent and
reliable services - whether bus, tram, MTR or Kowloon Canton Railway.

Graffitti artist are very protective of thier work and would punish anyone
who dared to touch it.


That's nice - perhaps they could all be locked in a big room and spend
their time punishing each other. They would then hopefully finish each
other off thus reducing the risk of further graffiti and saving the
criminal justice system some time and money.
