East London Decapitator May Be Girl-Targeting Killer-in-the-Make

Sometimes an innocent instance of "sticking it to the man" is not just sticking it to the man. It might be sticking it to women. Literally. Blood and all.

Words & Pictures takes a closer look at the activities of the East London Decapitator and observes the lauded ad-manipulator targets women five-to-one.

Considering the female half of Adrants is the Queen's Country right now, that's a ratio that literally hurts our necks.

Read the analysis, if only for the accompanying "DIE, BITCH" comic.

What do you think? Is this all in good fun, or the makings of a carte blanche psycho?

The comic is brilliant. The defacing of advertising as "subversive" as it may seem is neither original (see KAWS) nor in the case of this jack ass artistic. I only give credit to this woman hating douche because at least he's making people talk but if ran around London burning and/or defacing the Union Jack I would also be able to get people to rumble. Neither is art.

Eh, I give him punk points for style. Certainly more incendiary than the "Broken Link" ad defacement. Of course, some thought Dahmer was charmingly eccentric, too.
