tagging air force one?

Post by mxmendo »

More graffiti activism, but it's hard to believe they could just jump the fence and access the most secure plane in the world.<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://stillfree.com/">stillfree.com/</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--> <p></p><i></i>

<!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>Tagging Air Force One<br>Status: Fake</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--><br>A video on stillfree.com shows a guy (Mark Ecko) spraying graffiti on Air Force One. This involves him avoiding armed guards, climbing over fences, and then sprinting across the tarmac to write "Still Free" on the plane's engine. The video is well done, but fake. As a disclaimer on the site reads: <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>"You, the viewer of the preceeding are hereby advised that <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>the video does not depict a real event.</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> It is intended for the sole, limited and express purpose of entertainment and to induce you, the viewer of the video, to think critically about freedom of expression and speech and the government's responses to the same."</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.museumofhoaxes.com/hoax/weblog/permalink/tagging_air_force_one/">www.museumofhoaxes.com/ho...force_one/</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--> <p></p><i></i>
