Arts You'll Laugh, You'll Cry, You'll Wonder Why So Few Other Photo Exhibits Are This Impressive

Ladies and gentlemen, the Smoking Gun's 2008 Mug Shots of the Year.
There's so much to discuss, but I want to preserve the purity of your initial viewing. Meet me in the comments later.

"Have you forgotten 9/11" was the best. I like to think of it as a question posed to himself every morning in the mirror. Though, it would be written backwards, I think, if that were the case.

It looks as if a lot of them got arrested election night and Halloween, the costumes make the photos very poignant. the rest of the perps look as if they had been there before.

While the woman in the headscarf certainly has me asking a lot of questions, I can't help but love the dude with the shiny gold teeth.

@10, I vote ironic... Election night made a few people act out in unacceptable ways and it probably depended on where they were as to how the cops treated the situation.
I like the curly handlbar mustache guy myself

um, georgia guy @8, she was arrested for punching and kicking some cops. she was probably doing more of the same in the bar she got kicked out of. i still totally want to make out with her.
i think forehead tattoo dudes were the most sobering shots, what is going on in florida? i also feel bad for the kid who got arrested for blaring lil wayne. it was on election night for crying out loud.
also, why is there no corresponding story for the collage of mug shotted obama supporters? what were they arrested for?

@16 - Duh, I see that now. I guess it would help if I read the paragraph instead of just look at the pretty pictures.

Curly moustache dude is awesome, but my money's on the father and son with "Psycho" and "Git-R-Dun" tattooed on their foreheads. I want to have them over for dinner.
