It's Illegal For Kids To Buy Certain Art Supplies In London, Ontario.

Selling spray paint to anyone under 18 is against the law in London, Ontario?

I guess they'll just have to drive to Westminster, Srathroy or Ingersol to buy spray paint or get their parents to do it.

Who thinks up this sh*t?

Whoever they are, they'd be far better off putting a ban on driving boombox cars you can hear approaching from 16 blocks away.

I guess graphitti is more socially unacceptable than having your ears bombarded with noise at volume levels loud enough to crack concrete.

This is like banning the sale of tobacco products to kids. Yet, when we drive by some highschools at break times, all we can see are stupid little fools with fire in their faces.

So Deak. Are you suggesting that we don't place any limits on minors? Would you prefer that they have unfettered access to smokes, booze and broads? Of course there will always be some that find a way to get restricted products but I applaud stopping their use where ever we can. Kids + spray paint = trouble so why not just eliminate one of the variables in the equation (they wouldn't like us to eliminate the kids).

Where on Earth have I suggested anything so stupid? I simply stated the facts how they are.

When one of my teenager daughters came home and said that she's smoking now, we have put a stop to it pretty damn fast and now, at 48 she's thankful. Our kids always knew that if we catch them doing something criminal, or get involved with drugs, we won't "stand behind them" but will be the first to march them to the copshop.

So please wake up !
