Morally wrong

Okay, I was in a bathroom stall, and on one wall it said KKK, and on the other wall it said NYFD (as in New York Fire Department) is #1 with a picture of a Twin Towers above it. Then somone tried to scratch out the KKK thing. So, I know that legally they will all get the same punishment, but morally, who should get the most punishment, the KKK person, the one who scratched it out, or the Twin Towers person? Who should have the least?

Sorry, but I see this example as a freedom of speech issue. Barring punishment for vandalism of public property via the graffiti, I don't see a crime being commited morally or otherwise.

This is why i firmly believe that muzak should be deafiningly blasted through public washrooms. Crapping is too condusive to thinking, and some people really shouldn't think very much.

Legally... they deserve the same punishment. All that hatred will return to kick the racist in the ___... sooner, I hope, than later.

I think you make a very valid comment. The only crime is the graffiti. Oooooooh why must people like you talk such sense ?:biglaugh:

Every once is awhile I get tired of goofing off on RF and have to say at least ONE mature sentence.

Sorry Maxist........onward! :)

Presuming none of the bathroom artwork was commissioned:D, I think the person who scratched out KKK deserves the least. After all, that guy was trying to 'undo' the vandalism.

As for the KKK artist, for all we know, that could have been some wise-acre kid trying to get a rise out of people. Maybe he's heard of the klan but never donned a white sheet.:jiggy:

As for the NYPD/Twin Towers effort...even it was well drawn, a bathroom stall is not the appropriate place for such a tribute.
btw...I didn't think anyone actually read the graffiti anyway. :biglaugh:

I'm content to wait for Bill O'Reilly to give me the definative answer on this one.

how long must we wait for one? :rolleyes:

i think graffiti is a form of demonstration, but tact is key for it to be both influential and recognisable.

I think if the grafitti is sexually or hatefull/violent orientated, it's ok. But seeing things like "N****** BURN IN HELL!" or "I have a big penis for your wife," is tastless and should be punished.
