The City That Law Forgot

A pretty recent opinion piece written by SF Chronicle opinion man C.W. Nevius lays out what most of us already knew: San Francisco IS a great place to get up in. Whoops.

Below, he goes on speculating as to what kind of measures need to be taken up to put a total halt on writers operating in the city. Mandatory jail time anyone? Predictable.

  1. The one guy said he’d like to take a bat to taggers, most these people reporting graffiti are nerdy ass white dudes not getting laid or old women, then you got them saying they should do like L.A and have the parents pay, the still think all taggers are 13-16 don’t they? Best part is people getting all upset and thinking graffiti is as bad as rape and murder, maybe they will realize that it’s going to be here for the long haul, along with gangs, drugs, rats and cock roaches, suck it up and drive on. there’s things people don’t like in life you just gotta deal with, crying like a bitch and over worrying about it just amuses me

  2. The #1 comparison people make against writers is the whole “it’s like dogs pissing everywhere, marking their territory.”

    News flash for Johnny lunchpail and sally housewife – we see you all as cockroaches/zombies/walking dead.

  3. Just get up in everywhere and dont think it wont be seen. jus do it ,do it, do it to satisfy , whatever it is, jus do it, do it to satisfy! dont even think about it beotch!

  4. This is bullshit. Graffiti is for no life punks.
