Pratt by name, prat by nature

Steve Pratt, Liberal nutter, is one of the dull grey people who insist on keeping Canberra tied down to its humdrum past with their sad notions of what is "proper" and "good". Pratt's decided to "clean up" Canberra by personally removing any bit of graffiti he can find, whether it's a commissioned piece of community art or not! And the piece he found so offensive he had to remove? A picture of people playing frisbee in the park the art was placed in. Frisbee people!!!! What next? Won't someone please think of the children!

Far as I'm concerned, graffiti is great and does wonders for the endless expanses of grey concrete that Canberra was created from. I love it when some kid with nothing better to do really puts their heart and soul into a piece.

What bothers me most about Pratt though - what makes a man so irate about something so inconsequential that he would spend 5 hours of his day scrubbing a wall? Is he perhaps a little unhinged? Isn't there something useful he could be doing?

RiotACT has suggested he take to a little sledgehammering work instead: http://the-riotact.com/?p=4708.
