Anyone know anything about gang graffiti?

Found this on the neighbor's garage door this morning:



We're going to remove it this evening, and then it looks like the time-lapse VCR will be put back in service again.

SUR 13 is reported to be a "sister group" to the MS 13 gang.
Your local PD would be the best source of info on the local thugs and their tags.

Good Lord, I'm glad I live in the country. I think if someone spray painted anything on my property I'd have to stake out the place from outside and really hurt somebody.

Heck someone did that in my town they would first be shot on site. Either that or laughed out of town for their childesh crap. Kind of sad kids do stuff like that to get attention.

Just one. I don't think it has anything to do with him, per se. He just happens to have a garage door that's two feet from the street, which makes it a large, tempting, blank white canvas. Our garage doors face the same street, but they're about 20 feet back and up high, so they don't seem to be as inviting a target.

Ahhhh.....let me translate.

See the "3"?? That means your friend is about to experience 3 years prosperity followed by 3 years of famine. If he is wise, he will spend the next three years storing up on things like food, water, money, fuel and batteries. The following three years there will be a severe famine in his household and he will need to use the items he has stored up in order to survive.

It's just like in the Old Testament.

Yes, you can call me Daniel.

I agree

Put up a time lapse camera, or even put a small hole in the garage, and wait for him, when he comes, nice spray of mace, or pepper spray (or whatever you have handy at the time). Bet that would get him to think twice (yes I'm being nice so far).

Be like back in the day, you hang them from your tree in the front yard. Let anybody know if they mess with you, dead man. People are so stupid these days.

They had something similar up in Mass I think, guy robbed a store (after hours) a fire broke out and he couldn't get out the front cause they had the gates all closed. The family sued the store owner?? Well what the heck he was the one doing the wrong, the store owner was trying to keep the guy out, not in.
