Re: Shooting the taggers
There's a solution for taggers: snipers.
From: Jonathan Wienke <JonWienk@ix.netcom.com>
Speaking as a father and as someone who has been followed by gang members on numerous occasions after witnessing a gang assault and providing information to the police, I am in agreement with Tim May.
You agree that the solution for taggers is snipers? You agree that children who paint graffiti should be shot, perhaps killed?
I don't want my child to be corrupted or assaulted by worthless, predatory scum. There would be much less gang crime if private citizens could cane or otherwise deal with gangsters when they caught them in the act, pour encourager les autres, like.
Your own child gets a ride home with a crowd of high-spirited troublemakers, and on the way home they bash in J. Cypherpunk's mailbox with a baseball bat. JC appears on his porch and rakes the car with his AK-47, killing all on board. Is this justified?

I wouldn't go that far, but when a group of 10 punks armed with sawed-off, nail-embedded baseball bats swaggers through the neighborhood, it would be nice if the residents could disarm them and escort them to the middle of the Mojave at gunpoint without falling afoul of the LEA's ourselves.
