[QueaZyFunK]

This reminds me of this video my buddy gave me called "Busted!" I think it's for those liberal type parents to show to their children.

The first half is showing how to not get booked for smoking weed in the car, and the second shows you how not to get booked for sitting at the busstop with cans in your backpack.

that shits funny, i got off the hook right after a cop illegally searched me a while ago cause i told him he couldn't search me and he did...then when his boss came up and talked to me and my friend we both pointed it out, so they had to let us go......fuckin pigs

[!@#$%]

it'll never be a jury trial. there will never be any episode of law&order: graffiti vandal

but i had a trial, yeah.
it sucks.

the system fucked itself in my case, they flubbed up the case bad.
.. but it was only after about four fucking trips to court that it finally played out.
i got 500 hours of community service in the end.
and the judge got to berate me publicly.


i had the last laugh though, that was years ago and i still get over.
i got away with not doing my community service
i was kinda lucky, it didn't happen in my home city.

but the shit has come up again and i have had lots of loose ends to tie up trying to get my record straightened out because it was all wrong..it's a bunch of very long stories..

basically, don't get caught.
sjhit sucks.

but it you do, don't admit to anything.
i went through hell, but i never admitted to anything, even in the face of overwhelming evidence, and i eventually slipped through the cracks of the system.

[CACashRefund]

i went to trial they gave me the death penalty but i escaped death row

sorry tookie there was only room for one of us

[isor357]

blame it on sprite. thats what im plannin to do. SPRITE MADE YOU DO IT. remember that their constant bombardment of urban hip hop marketing led you to believe that graffiti is not only right but respectible

[MAGS156]

#1 is dont talk to a bunch of strangers about it on a public internet forum, anything you say is admissible in court , don't talk to reporters eather . #2 is get a lawyer thats there job , THE LAW

[CACashRefund]

how about ecko?

people say GTA made them kill cops

you can say getting up made you do the gRaFFiNg dOOd

[!@#$%]

i pled insanity

They work a bit extra or save up then go on little trips away. Is it really that hard to work out?

[realitymax]

been there. cops didn't show up. got off. moved on.

[YourSistersAssCookie]

I though there was no discussing court cases on 12.
I guess its all in who you blow not who you know.
just tell the judge you love the cock and cant help it.

[Gunm]

set the courthouse on fire


that always works for me

[CACashRefund]

have somebody call in a bomb threat, that could buy you some time to flee the country

[YourSistersAssCookie]

Peer Pressure.
tell them you have a drinking problem and that you were molested by your art teacher in grade school

[Sero_332]

ive got court in 3 days, and another date in like 2 weeks or so, for the same shit. ill tell you how it goes.

i got caught when i was much younger doin sum brasse tags in the daytime, i admitted because i was scared of the police's authoritative nature.

i would like to add that i was/am stupid

[Bed.]

If they dont got a proof, they dont got shit.

[religion]

I went to trial... in Canada mind you, where you probably WONT go to jail for writing. One of my old friends had a loose mouth... thats why hes no longer a friend. Cops made up a statement even though I "remaied silent". Homie gave 'em a hard time being a smart ass, so he got a few months com service. My case was dismissed. Not the first time.

Its hard to find smart people to bomb with.

Just shut up and be polite... usually you'll be OK.

[_nightcrawler]

Be smart about it and you will not even get a fine if you get busted

[rattleytins]

graffiti is bad

[FuzZy]

I thought we werent supposed to discuss court cases on the 12oz

curious to why it hasnt been closed????

[Smart]

the rule is 'Don't discuss OTHER PEOPLES' court cases'... if you want to talk about your own bad luck then that's up to you.

[Meth_bomb]

they will too take u to trial. Lead me right to fucking felonies and prob jail time comming up, Buffalo NY is a fucking joke and the erie county juducal system is fucked. They had more plublicity on my case than they have had on any murder or rape case in the last 5 years. how is that straight???????

[Flavicon]

Yup, and i held a b-boy stance the whole time.

[bokals..]

every kid/person in the room had some sort of company... i didn't...:sadcrying:

[viperface]

hhahaha b-boy stance

[delonemonkey]

oh my god i hate trials...and that flex your rights thing, wow. When i got caught everything was going cool till my airsoft gun fell out of my shirt and they searched me and found a baton and 8 cans

[tango 24]

anyone know australian search laws coz i searched but yeah well you know.......

its a little hazy actually
ive been told that you can refuse a personal search, but in practice it didnt work
i said i didnt consent to it, so they threw me about a bit and then searched me
meh...

[BUFFAkilla]

if you havnt bombed the fuck out of your city and caused thousands of dollars damage its not really worth spending money of shmancey lawers try not to say anything orget caught
