The comments on the tagging arrests story are turned off. I guess this morning that some people had a difficult time being decent. 

It's obvious the subject matter has touched a nerve.

So if you'd like to comment, send them to me at larry.altman@dailybreeze.com or feel free to comment here on the blog.

A few comments are posted on this entry if you'd like to read them.

Here's another from Rick:

Hi Larry,
   Great Story! Glad you got front page. Please follow up on this because if you don't the "bleeding hearts" will step in and these "cockroaches" will probably end up with very little punishment. I can only imagine what the bill has been for the cleanup. We tax payers just write a check at tax time. Are there any parents? Or were they also part of the tag crew. Bet they will swear up and down they did not know a thing about it. I hope they also get busted! Great job on the apprehensions too.
 
Rick

And here's one from Omaha, Nebraska:

Mr. Altman: 
I'm glad the taggers were apprehended. However, as far as restitution  
goes, the city(s) can't get what these thoughtless taggers don't  
have.  It's a sad commentary.  They essentially have nothing to  
lose.  Now maybe in another distant country, they could possibly lose  
a hand, or even worse.
