"The writers you speak of were mostly from a crew called OFA and it was in the bay area (oakland/berkely) that this sting happened i was unaware that it made cops but they had hidden cameras all over the place and it was a big story on the evening news with extensive footage they defimitly would have had enough to splice some action for the kops. The sting was found to be unethical but some still had to face charges for previous crimes."

This happened in San Jose in 1994 it was atually a fucked up situation, alot of good "taggers" got fucked on this one, actually TIEONE before he was TIE got fucked with his mentor Berp on that shit, it was all bad from the start, I had cleanup with all the ofa fools who got caught for that and all of them had like 300 hours of graffiti clean up even the fools who actually never got down but just to fuck them over. If this was already mentioned sorry I havent finnished reading the post.

TIE and Berp was never caught in that operation and they never rolled with OFA they were down wit BCS ol school crew that shoulda never died.
actually Im pretty much positive that TIE got caught in that sceme before he was TIE, before sesk reds, he got caught in that shit, berp didnt get hemmed but Jaba(aspen) did and I didnt mention anything about them and OFA kicking it, I sayed OFA heads(bogas, The twins, and a gang of other fools from OFA) got 300 hours each of paint over which TIE was also in at the time when he was Sesk Reds. TIE and Berp and my homeys DATE, CHIP rolled to that sting shit together and Date and TIE got caught up. I know this. WE all used to kill TA lines and with thier own name and BCS used to roll all the time.
Originally posted by SOCCERMOM 1 there was also an episode where the cops rolled up to a suspected writer's crib. on the way over there, the police give a brief explanation of the kid's plight...he's been arrested before for "tagging", they know what he 'spray paints' and he's also been ratted. they never tell you what he writes(it's very non-glamorizing). when they arrive at his spot, its a semi-suburban home with flowers in the garden and preteens on tricycles. they knock on the door, go inside and arrest the kid, a very quiet black teen, in front of his mom and his little brothers and sisters. the peculiar thing is, is that everyone's so quiet. there's absolutely no ill drama, but rather, a peaceful "end of the road" feel, like when they play 'ooh-ooh child' in the movie 'boyz in the hood'. the surrounding scene and architecture look rather west-coastish. i seen this around 97 so it was probably actually filmed in 95-96, my detail may or may not be as precise as it appears....but close enough. the moral of the story here kids is to make mommy
proud enough that if and when you get caught someday(knock on wood) she won't flip out on you but rather she'll understand the notion that you're probably learning another lesson in the book of life
JESUS man you should write books or movie scripts.... this paragraph had me at "hello"

JOE HATES COPS
ARE, oh shit man I totally forgot about that fool, I havent seen or even thought about him in years straight years. Yeah man I used to wreck TA back in the day, then we tried to bring it back but just didnt have the same feel as when we used to be about the bus system, I feel you on how alot of us shouldnt have stopped, last time I was in the bay I met up with bernt and blazed and he was the same as always, sibl, eidr, myself are still in it to win it, date I havent talked to that fool in like 6 years, he called me randomly from AZ and my mom took the message never heard from him again, I wish that lump of chump change was a cool mutherfucker.. Stay G'ed up playboy
i saw this episode where some kids got caught in san fran like 2 years back and they were caught with stickers and the cops were all dumb they were like these are what we call tags and they pointed the camera and they were searching the guys for stickers cuz some old lady had called the cops and they had cans and stickers on them... the cops let them go cuz they weren't the ones but they took them in to call their parents.... cops hardly know anything but that kinda figures.... they always use the proper terminology for it... the kids look all paranoid and they were some young heads i had a laugh...
Originally posted by modesto I remember this one episode from San Francisco when they stopped these kids who fit the profile or "looked like" graffiti vandals according to the cops.
That's right! "LOOKED LIKE" hahaha!!!
These nerds were high flossin' tags and stickers all over their shit. Jackets and sacks. Sure enough, they had cans, magnums, and blackbooks.
The cops proceeded to try and match up tags from their peicebooks to see if they had hit anything near where they were stopped. So as to have a real reason for stopping them.
NOT A DAMN TAG MATCHED!! These kids did'nt even get up.
FUCKING AMATEURS for gettin' made by the po' without even layin' it down!
you fucking toy! do you even know who they had stop? you must not know what goes on in sf. you should stay in modesto where you belong before you get ran off the block fool.

Originally posted by Clever Name I saw an episode where these 3 writers were up on a billboard and the cops rolled up and shined the spotlight on em. One jumped down to a rooftop just below the billboard and the other 2 tried to climb down. The rooftop guy got away and while the 2 climbers were on their way down, the cops let a dog loose so when they hit the pavement they'd get chewed up. Both of em climbed back up, jumped on the rooftop, and proceeded to jump across a couple of more rooftops looking for their boy who had made it farther. One of them fell and broke his leg -- of course he got caught -- and the other 2 ran out down a fire escape into the streets and got caught up in a big crowd. They managed to get away and the cops were heated! It was great!
Cops setup a sting operation. They put out massive flyers and shit all around town. They advertised a film being filmed intown and wanted "graffiti people" to show up and get paid for doing a peice and some taggs in the background of an alley that was going to be in the movie. So like 18 guys show up..the "producers" tell them do do all there stuff on these walls to see which shit they would like to see in the background. Bam after they all do throw ups and shit cops bust in and handcuff them all...compare styles and pictures with the shit the people put up. And arrested like 16 of em...other 2 were like local tatoo artists or some bs graphic drawers. I saw that like 4 years ago....I dont remember specifically any of the names...and I dont even remember the location."
All those writers would have to have been aquitted on all charges...for the fact of entrapment....even if they did match the bombs....how could they prove it was them?...they have no pictures....i assume...but whatever.
oh.....fuck da police...
this gives me an idea for a thread....hehehe.
on one show called brooklyn homicyde they always pass decks shit an you see various names, but this one time the where saying hom the homicide ratye was increaseing an that there were somany murals for murderd people an they showed like 4-5 graff murals,it was sick
when ever i watch cops i get really pissed off, so to avoid getting ulcers and high blood pressure i stopped watching it...i did see the one with the two kids in SF and one wrote LOG...
