Perhaps I am being rather cynical though, when I say what happened may encourage MORE graffiti and risk taking.
I see his so called friends are already posting shrines all over the place in 'honour' or their dead vandal criminal friends.
Whenever I am about anywhere I absolutely hate graffiti with a vengeance. All it does is deface our towns and cities, and guess who pays for the cleaning up of a lot of this abomination Twink?
WE DO!
All we can do is hope that some families will discourage their children from taking such risks.
Sadly Britain has become so PC that people are afraid to stop the creation of shrines.....
but it should be stopped!
I know people want to remember their lost ones , but often the laying of flowers where somebody has died causes problems, because they distract people's attention from staying safe! I remember an elderly couple having a nasty fall in town, where a mother laid flowers, every day, in memory of her son....but never cleared them up! I think a grave is where you should lay floral tributes, not the high street! The couple were taken , by ambulance, to A&E.
Unfortunately, everyone wants their own way these days, and nobody, in charge, has the guts to say "No" so the public will always have to pay one way or another
