That is quite different: by drinking and street racing, they were risking
others, whereas the graffiti artists weren't endangering anyone's life.

Graffiti artists (sic) have proven track records (no pun) of covering
speed restriction signs, signals, OPO CCTV or mirrors and train
head/tail-lights, cut holes in depot fencing which could allow access
for small children, all of which could impact on safety. And if we
really need contrasting door and body colours on UK trains under DiPTAC
(which I do doubt) then are even causing difficulties for the partially
sighted too.

These two are no loss to society and it's just a pity so many
passengers are staff were inconvenienced last night and today. Good
riddance though I expect they're already being hailed as martyrs on
taggers' message boards.
