ATHENS, Tenn. Two teenaged boys were just hanging around professing their love for their girlfriends in graffiti. Michael Clark and Matthew Musnicki, both 18, were dangling from a rope tied to an interstate bridge and trying to spray paint their mates' names on the concrete when they were stopped in the act.
Sheriff's Deputy Melissa Myers, who spied the odd scene from her patrol car, arrested the pair on the spot for the stunt. "It was two guys spray painting names of girls they liked," Myers told FOX News on Thursday.
"When [one] saw me, he had this look like, 'Oh my gosh, Im busted.'" The pair never got the chance to write their love for their chosen girls in graffiti. Myers immediately took one of the friends into custody, but the other tried to escape.

Well at least they weren’t professing their love for each other.
I remember the time when the Deputy would have taken their paint and given them a good talking to. Nowadays everyone needs a criminal record if at all possible, more control that way.
HAHAHA! I didn’t think of that! ;)
That’s EXACTLY what I thought when I saw the headline and then began to read the article!
Sorry, I can’t feel sorry for punks who do graffiti.

One of the perps.
Or maybe this is the girlfriend of the other perp. I'm not quite sure.
If you have to haul a bucket of paint to the top of the water tower to defend your sister’s honor.......
You might be a redneck.
