“Tourists Face 10 Years In Jail & $30K Fine For Graffitiing Ancient Gate in Thailand...”
...and weekly public caning for the entirety of the 10 year prison sentence.

I don’t know the number of times I’ve paused under a full moon and recited “Late Lament”.

“Give them ten years of cleaning public facilities.”
Father of girl: “Is there any chance of a promotion?”
Shabby suiter: “In another year I get a brush!”

Breathe deep the gathering gloom,
Watch lights fade from every room;
Bedsitter people sit back and lament
Another day's useless energy spent.
Impassioned lovers wrestle as one,
Lonely man cries for love and has none,
New mother picks up and suckles her son,
Senior citizens with they were young.
Cold-hearted orb that rules the night,
Removes the colors from our sight:
Red is grey and yellow white,
But we decide which is right
And which is an illusion.

To: Simon Green
Ten years would be a bit over the top, wasteful in terms of money (incarceration) and their lives - they’re still young and stupid. That said, they’re idiots to think this wouldn’t have significant consequences - it’s not the U.K.
...which also says something about the U.K. - many just aren’t scared of the law...and one wonders why there’s Islamic rape gangs.

No, nobody I know here would even hit that with a 2x4.
This had to be a premeditated crime too, they obviously went and got paint somewhere.

The Moody Blues have always been and still are my favorite rock 'n roll band.
Their greatest hits CD is stuck in my pickup's CD player and I can't get it out.
I've played the CD so much, I know every word to every song before it even starts.
Greatest band ever.

Food should be with held unless their families provide it. Not an uncommon condition of imprisonment in third world countries.
It gives families a strong incentive to raise there kids to not be criminals.
Imaging how different urban youth would be if mama's welfare payments were docked the amount it costs to feed them in juvie...

To: Mustangman
But, 10 years is way way too high a pice to pay for that crime. Nope. Their treasured historical artifact, their rules.
What would be a good penalty for going to the Smithsonian and spray painting the tatters of Old Glory?

WHAT were they doing with cans of spray paint as the innocently toured the country. Seems like premeditation to me. DOUBLE THE FINE AND THE PRISON STAY.
To: null and void
While I will say I’ve never met Laz in person before, I’m fairly confident that even his standards exceed what this thing is capable of lol.

That would be protected speech; especially if committed at an NFL pre-game ceremony.

The Moody Blues were such a great band.
The best.....We sure grew up with great music didn't we?

Hotel $250 a night
According to her mother, she enjoys traveling and was there alone. She was also staying in a Hostel........So the kid she was with was just somebody she met there.
