that is f*cked up. really.
am i the only person who thinks this guy's a tremendous asshole? riding around in your parents mercedez suv and beating up a gallery owner? there's over 2 million people in jail, this vice-yuppie jerkoff is really low on my list of people to care about.
i have to say I agree... maybe he got too much jail time... maybe. There are far greater injustices in this country to get amped up about right now... this dude will get out and I am sure he will be back to the same old, same old as soon as possible.
As someone who steals art when I feel like I want to... this story was fucking scary as shit. made me think twice about some milk carton easy lifting.
shit always ends up getting bad fast if its going to get bad at all, and the car thing just seemed like a really bad really fast situation.
as far as hating someone for riding around in someones mothers car... I could give a fuck about that, and it seemed like someone ended up hanging on the hood for a ride like some bootleg die hard for a fucking photo isnt just some poor defenseless gallery owner. I bet everyone was railed on coke, and thinking things through really clearly.
but seriously, scary fucking story.
hey anonymous. can you make up a name for yourself so i can tell anonymous commenters apart? please comment away, just distinguish a little.
ok now its more seperate.
I said it was fucking scary.
thanks thieving.
forgot to add the "other 2 cents" from wooster.

although, if i can be a snarky (antlered's middle name) reviewer for a second. mr. "2 cents" totally loses the point halfway through his letter and just starts ranting about graf beef and not being a rich kid. . . they should have edited that half out and posted an "abridged" version.
amazing how this one just goes off like a firecracker for peeps.
