    So the state will assume he’s in support and jail him on assumptions? For a painting?

      Apparently? Yes. But stencil wall art is not Banksy’s exclusive art. Even of it looks like it, just assuming it’s banksy and treating the person as a criminal is dumb. Also it seems repressing free speech does the exact opposite.
