- EricaBZ, on 07/20/2008, -3/+90Hilarious! These snails are truly inner city.
- Elliuotatar, on 07/20/2008, -2/+80"Who would do such a thing!?"
"Tiny vandals." - phyx726, on 07/20/2008, -2/+76does that mean slugs are homeless?
- agreenall, on 07/20/2008, -1/+49"don't be too surprised to see a brightly-coloured snail making its way down a street near you."
I'm sure the birds that normally eat them will have no trouble spotting John... - Branbot, on 07/20/2008, -1/+45Oh the art is just a distraction! The artist is packing every snail with C4 in their shells. These so called "Inner City Snails" will be the end of London.
- dhughes, on 07/20/2008, -0/+24 It's all fun and games until someone covers over a tag and gets gunned down in a drive by.
- andsalvatierra, on 07/20/2008, -2/+24Direct Link to the artist's project page: http://innercitysnail.blogspot.com/
- Stevo23, on 07/20/2008, -0/+21That would be one slow-ass driveby.
- Millsee, on 07/20/2008, -0/+20What's the point in doing graffiti on the French snails?
People would just eat them. - seantubridy, on 07/20/2008, -1/+20There goes the neighborhood.
- arevolutionof1, on 07/20/2008, -0/+19It's Pimp My Shell for snails. Somebody call MTV.

- andy101, on 07/20/2008, -0/+15By inner city, I think he means they're not gonna last a day without being accidentally stepped on.
- TehProphet, on 07/20/2008, -0/+15...
- carnivalofmmo, on 07/20/2008, -1/+15Don't drink and digg.
- Paulish, on 07/20/2008, -0/+14Yeah, for the latter you should probably see a doctor.
- scabbers, on 07/20/2008, -1/+151.Countdown until Banksy makes one with a little plastic policeman hitting the shell that has drawn-on cracks. Or a bag lady snail pushing a tiny shopping cart full of junk.
And no, you can't copy my idea. - AwsmGy, on 07/20/2008, -0/+13Shhh, don't tell PETA.
- blooksllc, on 07/20/2008, -7/+17Starting now, a worldwide campaign - painted snails in every city by the start of the olympics. Olympic painted snails! Tell your artist friends. But don't tell everyone, I don't want asseholes with no tallent getting drunk and harrasing snails with a magic market.

- Supernova36, on 07/20/2008, -1/+11Does France still have a graffiti problem?
(Before you digg me down, there is a difference between Graffiti Art, and spraying ***** on everything.) - hoodieninja, on 07/20/2008, -1/+10if i see "the" spelled "teh" one more time....

- inotocracy, on 07/20/2008, -1/+93 down, a few billion to go..
- mrloci, on 07/20/2008, -0/+8I have a feeling thousands of snails are in for some abuse today.

- wrathofg0d, on 07/20/2008, -0/+5These are just going to end up being picked up by people who want to sell their shells.
- MoClippa, on 07/20/2008, -1/+6That sounds like a wonderful place, I'll be sure to visit it after my stay at the Sorcerer's Inn.
- MadOgre, on 07/20/2008, -0/+5Turtles are doomed too.
And crabs. - Alphabet, on 07/20/2008, -0/+5Those snails won't last long. Predators will easily spot them and eat them.
- xs11ax, on 07/20/2008, -1/+5snail wars
- zip000, on 07/20/2008, -0/+4I wonder if the bright colors make them more (or less) interesting to predators.
