Nothing to worry about there. Not like it alludes to blowing up a building or anything...errr wait

'Was this here before?' I said, 'No, no, this has got to be that group called the Anarchists,'" said Papia.

Hey, at least it's an ethos.

That noted, throwing heavy bricks from rooftops onto people's heads isn't gonna help anything.

/Not just saying that because Republican skulls are so thick it takes more than a brick to dent 'em.

Once they go through the phone book and don't find someone named Dekko they're going to be stumped.

However, Tampa police said the graffiti is synonymous with anarchy and the protest group "Anonymous."

Ha, it's synonymous with Anonymous.

Ah, they found the motherload. And the pretext to crack down on whoever they want.

Who am I kidding, they don't need fake evidence to do that any more

Ha, it's synonymous with Anonymous.

No, it's a front run by a guy name Heironymous,

FTFA: "Police said crews were sent out to paint over the image."

I'm surprised budget cuts haven't given police this job yet.

I said, 'No, no, this has got to be that group called the Anarchists,'" said Papia.

That cracked me up. Not sure why, but I just found this guy's complete cluenessness funny.

Also, that the mysterious "99" somehow defied explination?

Quick Fixer		2012-08-22 01:14:25 PM

Clearly the work of Anonymous. Because Anonymous is notorious for signing their work "dekko."

"To the right was piled up these big bricks, like street bricks. I mean, they were heavy and there was maybe about 12 of them. So, he [officer] said 'Was this here before?' I said, 'No, no, this has got to be that group called the Anarchists,'" said Papia.

Because anarchists are a united group.

Good. They've marginalized, divided, and spewed hate to at least a third of Americans.

It's time to sleep in the bed they made.

I'm so very glad that building will be filled to the brim with vigilant patriots, armed to the teeth with guns & ammo. So you know nothing will go wrong. At all.

Praise allah.

Because anarchists are a united group.

They live in communes and are only robbing those storefronts at riots to give back to the community.

And just like the OWS movement, when they cause trouble and police do something about it, they'll stand up for what they believe in...

By posting videos on the internet and crying like the small misbehaved children they are.

They have a central, unifying structure though. That's why you can call "the Anarchists" simply "a group."

talkertopc		2012-08-22 01:21:47 PM

I'm thinking that the pile of bricks was there before and has nothing to do with the Guy Fawkes picture. Why would anyone stockpile projectiles and then made sure the emplacement was discovered?

Or the whole thing or part of it is a plant to give a pretext to crack down on protests.

Hyjamon		2012-08-22 01:21:57 PM

xanadian: What the fark does the "GG" stand for, anyway?

I have always understood it as "good game" but that is from seeing it when I would be playing games. Charlie Brown might argue it means Good Grief.

I wouldn't be surprised if it has other interpretations

Gordon Gekko?

A bizarre image was spray-painted on a downtown building in Tampa, just days before the Republican National Convention.
The image resembles a picture from the movie "V for Vendetta.

Jesus, it's not "bizarre", and yes, it is from V For Vendetta, are you people retarded, or did you just phone this in while getting a BJ at the bathhouse in the other story? Seriously, you're acting like this is some great mystery... It's just a farking graffiti artist, he even signed the farking thing.

THIS. THIS is what the decline of the printed newspaper is bringing us, shiat written at a second grade level, welcome to the future.

How do you join an anarchist group?

No meetings, no rules, who cares?

That's why I dislike yahoos like these who don't understand a simple dictionary definition.
