looks like a bunch of naked hand puppets. Seriously, how silly would it be if you had Al Capone making hand gestures like these?
Al Capone didn't bother with hand signals. His hand signal was pushing the trigger to his gun. lol

Umm... No. It's the difference between an underground economy that is functioning smoothly and one where people are killing each other. Legalize the black market goods and the problems do largely go away. You seen any beer distributor graffiti recently?

Why dont the taggers get together and make a beautiful mural which would be a creative outlet for tagging and they can make something really fabulous.. Why hasn't that been encouraged.

Where is the line drawn? At weed? Would heroin, crack, meth, etc. be legalized also? Prostitution?

I'm curious about the practical ramifications.
