Texas Graffiti Writer Gets 8 Years of Prison Without Parole

Njal says...

Well I would also be pissed if I owned a house or car and someone tagged it but if he/she would pay for the damage I wouldn't want him or her to go to jail for it.
Just ask the city for a place to do some proper graffiti (not retarded tags). In my town there are a couple of art galleries and other places where people are allowed to graffiti the whole buildings.
Find a boring tunnel and ask for permission to do something more interesting with the walls. Unless the city/county or wherever you ask for this kind of permission are retarded and don't realize that the graffiti will just end up somewhere else they will most likely give you permission.
I'm just pissed when they spend money on cleaning up tunnels and make them boring and bland again. The graffiti is back after a month so why even bother. Just make it a graffiti zone instead and get rid of problems elsewhere.

8 years for some vandalism and having a small amount of pot is inhumane.

"Why Bank Of America Fired Me"

Njal says...

I like this woman's morals

But I have a hard time understanding why people who can't afford to use credit cards get them at all, and with such high limits on the credit. (I'm not referring to the woman in this story with a $6,000 debt because I don't know the reason why she is in debt)

The only kind of card I have is a debit card because I don't live beyond my means. If I can't afford things that I want, I don't buy them. It's a simple plan to follow.
If you're using credit cards when you're in a financial crisis to pay for other bills or whatever it is that you must pay that's a really short term fix for the problem and not really a solution at all unless you know for certain that things will get much better in the very near future.

I guess I don't understand because I've never been in a situation where I've needed to go into debt just to survive (if that is what some of people with credit card debts do). Where I live there are safety nets so that won't ever happen unless you mess up really bad. If I get a serious illness public health insurance is there and I won't have to deal with medical bills. If i lose my job I won't risk being without food and a place to live.

But I hope not all credit card debt is because of irresponsible consumption and that most people with credit card debt can't find a new job or is in some kind of crisis and don't have anything to fall back on.
Maybe society is wrong for letting it happen but banks aren't helping by making the situation worse for those people. As many have already pointed out the banks aren't doing any good for themselves in the long run or the customer by kicking them when they're down so it's just bad for everyone involved.

I do have a student loan of almost $40.000 at an interest of 2.1% that made it possibly for me to study where I wanted. I took a loan so that I can pay for my student apartment. Not so that I could buy nice clothes, a new computer, a car or anything that I didn't need. Sure, I don't *need* the education either but to me it's an investment that I won't have any problem at all to pay of. Even if I wouldn't find a job for, let's say, 10 years I would have no problem with paying the interest.
It's a ridiculously low risk loan. A credit card is not.

I thought it started out with pretty lame secrets, I guess I was expecting different kind of secrets, but it got better. A lot better
Really great idea, video and site.

Props to Shepppard for sharing that secret. It must be tough.
I have some secrets that I've never told anyone but I don't dare to share them here. I'm not brave like Shepppard

Are there really people with no secrets like the first few people who say they don't have any?

What a fucking scumbag tactic. With lies and slander they will convert you to christianity?
Yeah, that's a very "christian" way of saying that you're right.. just throw shit at everything that doesn't agree with your religion.
