No, it would be considered a crime, and they would be arrested for hooliganism. Then, probably fined big time, and released.

Of course, some people will consider that art. They will even invite you to see their beautiful art collection in Lubianka.

It was time for a little vacation. It was nice to get away for a little while. And I have to say, it seems a lot more civilized here, since I have returned. I hope it remains this way for a spell.

Daria saw the link too...and jojo did also...we are all in agreement...art is a very subjective thing...and although that style isn't what I am into...I will give the person credit. Did you watch them all? There were a couple that actually were OK. BUt yes the ones you mentioned...I didn't like either. We have places here though where I live that I think people would appreciate it...but too the area I live in is like...well in one way like Laguna Beach...if you know anything about that place Last edited by surfguy on Mon Aug 13, 2007 11:25 am; edited 1 time in total
