A group of 10 individuals from the Metro Transit Assassins (MTA) tagging crew may soon face a civil injunction thanks to several Los Angeles prosecutors.
The Los Angeles Times reports that if the injunction is granted members of the MTA will no longer be able to communicate with one another, a strict curfew will be given, and members will not be permitted to possess any graffiti tools.
On top of the restrictions just mentioned, the court order also asks for $250,000 in civil penalties and $3.7 million in damages for graffiti done by the MTA tagging crew.
The MTA is responsible for a number of tags across the city, but the most prominent tag was one that ran along the Los Angeles River. The tag was removed last year, but cost the city a great deal of time and money to remove.
The civil suit is scheduled to take place on August 31.

Mainly music, but that doesn’t mean they can’t cover some of the other Hip Hop elements as well.

Man, I’m kind of happy to hear this, I get the whole grafitti orgin and all of that, but for every true graffiti artist, there are 100 little wanna be’s making everything look ugly. You gotta look at that side of it too. What’s up with this f**k the police, f**k this and that. I mean what does the police have to do with anything? These are your neighberhoods that look like shit because of bullshit 12 year olds writing bullshit on the walls all over your cities.

I feel what ur saying about these kids that got no skills and fuck up our communities with their ugly ass shit, but MTA is a crew of real artists and they’re graffiti legends in Cali. This is fucked up…
