Never tag a mental health facility
Some kid tagged the boys restroom here at work and we got this email from our clinical director. He apparently took the time to analyze the tag and it looks like he is developing a profile.
Don,
I saw the graffitti in the restroom. It's obviously a young kid, probably a latency age wanna-be gangster. I'm guessing 8-11 y.o., probably hispanic. The trident is a tag for "People's Nation" which is a more adult oriented crime gang, predominantly Hispanic. I'm not aware that kids are part of PN. The Kc tag stands for Crip Killer and is a tag usually associated with the Bloods. Also black and red are Bloods colors, so I think this is a kid who fantasizes about being a Blood. The Bloods are more of a mixed-race gang, while the Crips are predominantly African-American.
As one of my TCJC kids would say in "street" re: this graffitti: "That punk-ass fool thank he be representin'"
