Yes, you could win, of course.

But, let's see. Here's a time frame:

February 28th, you get arrested.

Your first appearance is in the end of March

Your pretrial is end of May

Then, your plea is entered the end of July.

Then, your trial is the beginning of September.

So that's 7 months until it's over with. That's 7 months YOU ARE IN JAIL for, only to be found innocent.

How do I know? It happened to me.

You make it sound like no one has the right to criticize any behaviour they've ever engaged in themselves. This isn't right. I've done a lot of things in my life that I now realize were wrong and regret, including stealing, vandalizing, lying, cheating and all that stuff. Fortunately, my ethics are little more highly developed now then they were when I was a teenager.

THis is why your Ninj and im Dijital.


im just not going to hide my ethics. im not proud or ashamed of how I conduct myself within the ruins.

I just do whatever I want I guess. Funny thing, for as wild as I have conducted myself. the only thing I ever got caught, and in trouble for was the one Law everyone agrees is ok to break

Trespassing


Ironic, don't you think.

same here, the only thing I do is Tresspass. I also drink a half cup of straight-up vinegar before every exploration. Just a ritual. People are not supposed to go in these locations, thats why the people leave all their stuff behind. Stealing is Stealing no matter what form you do it.

EDIT- And smoking inside a drain? Very bad Idea. Hell, same with buildings. If your going to use tabacco, do what I do. Chew some Copenhagen. I dont smoke...

Vinegar? Any reason how that came to be?
Also, dip some grizzly wintergreen. 3 bucks a tin and it's stronger than Cope.
Oh yeah, and leaves your breath minty fresh.

Considering that you think ethics is about "not getting caught", yes, it is indeed pretty ironic that you're trying to tell other people they're wrong.

What about dumpster diving? I mean thats close to thieft as well, and it makes it so they get locks on them if you make a mess. I think it really should be up to the situation and not blanket statements like theift is good or bad. Just be smart if ethics are to be bent. Hell if there weren't any tagging in drains would they be as fun? Come on relax a little, but don't be stupid about in your explorations. Meh...

Tourism, human circulation considered as consumption is fundamentally nothing more than the leisure of going to see what has become banal.

Dumpster diving is not part of UE. I doubt you visit dumpsters to satisfy your intellectual curiosity or to take cool pictures of them. I mean, there is no other goal to dumpster diving than to find and bring home items - unless you're the kind of diver who just likes to see cool trash and leaves it there. I'm not familiar enough with dumpster diving to know if such people exist.

A lot of people would argue that ethics is about duties, and that duties do not depend on the situation. There is a multitude of opinions on the matter. Trust me, I study and teach ethics for a living.

Yes. I really don't see why you believe "no" to be so self-evident.

You can probably argue this for boring concrete tubes, but you have to realize that not all drains are like this.

If someone tagged any of the surprisingly many spectacular drains in the Twin Cities, I would have to hunt them down and force feed them raw sewage. Probably the nice yeasty-stuff from near Stahlmann's, too.

Dumpster diving is diving into dumpsters and finding stuff to take. Popular places for DD are electronic stores, clothing stores, second hand / thrift stores, and depending on what you're looking for, medical supply facilities and labrotories.
This is done mostly for person profit. I doubt too many people do this to look at stuff alone... if you can't find anything decent to take, that's a diffrent story. This was really popular in New York int he mid - late 80s and was somewhat popular on the Hamilton west mountain when I lived there.
Just because you've never heard of a genre or whatever doesn't mean that they don't exist.

Thank you NVKahos for the history and meaning behind dumpster diving. We all benefit from your wisdom.

LoX0red. This thread is officially retarded.
