STOP • Banksy Drone Stop Sign , by robo on Dec 23, 2023 18:47:42 GMT 1, Just for future reference. Would you mind giving us your definition of "genocide"?
A good definition is what Hamas describe they want to do, started to actually do, and say they will repeat doing until stopped.

I mean- it is a bit difficult to figure it out myself because you are collecting and fawning over Banky's work but don't support his cause? Is it a money thing? I don't get it. I don't want to get it. I am not interested in discussions with those who ignore the destruction of Palestine.

If I was the judge, I would castrate them with the bolt cutters and shove a drone up their jacksie (it’s why I’m not a judge!).

STOP • Banksy Drone Stop Sign , by mojo on Dec 23, 2023 19:52:00 GMT 1, Although I can understand why Peckham council want to keep it what if it was put there by Banksy to be found and taken? Doesn't seem fair to punish someone for being tempted, it's not everyday you see something like that on the street. I'm generally into leaving street art where it is but it always gets taken anyway so what's so different about this one?

Why would Banksy take the time and trouble to make and install an artwork...and then *want* someone to steal it? That doesn't make any sense. |

No, they are routinely 'taken' what's the difference this time? So you are basically saying it is ok to commit a crime when you were tempted? Anyway, I hope the moron gets the punishment he deserves for this. No not really I'm just trying to add some nuance and perspective and question why it's ok for other works to be 'taken'. Also tis the night before the night of Christmas and I genuinely believe he may have just thought his luck was in, an innocent opportunist that now finds themselves in custody. Ironically graffiti is a crime too so it's all a bit of an odd one, meanwhile tens of thousands of innocent Palestinians are being killed. I appreciate others have other views. I'm off out now, Merry Christmas. |

Mr B knew exactly what was going to happen. And now, not just the piece is being talked about, but the theft, further amplifying the reach of the message. He aint no dummy.

STOP • Banksy Drone Stop Sign , by Minecrafter on Dec 24, 2023 0:12:14 GMT 1, Maybe it's a social experiment, rich white guy defaces road sign in a majority multicultural neighbourhood with documented low income area and high crime and a black guy foolishly steals it. Now you have John Brandler claiming it's worth half a million. So will this poor guy be charged with that sort of value theft ? And will the rich guy get off with defacing road signs ?
To be honest, in my opinion the whole thing is staged, charges will be dropped and the piece will be auctioned for Palestine.

I don’t think it was an accident that the Stop sign chosen was alongside the Commercial Way sign, given the subject matter a clear reference to the arms trade and also perhaps the likely ultimate outcome that the sign would be swiftly stolen for commercial gain.

Not sure about all the pearl clutching, clearly Banksy knew it was going to get nicked in like 10 minutes, which was the point, it obviously creates a far bigger story.
