WITH BANDITO
4/20/2012

XZ -- A real prince of our people right here, what's up Bandito?

DTO -- Just kickin' it, what you got right here in that folder, some homework or something? You look like you on your way to school...LOL!

XZ -- Why are you taken off on me like you're, George Lopez, laundry bag chewin' ass...LOL

DTO -- State soap chewin' ass... LOL. Gotta get off first around here...With your Richard Pryor, mustache havin ass!

XZ -- Let the people know where you was raised.

DTO -- Lynnwood California, Mexico is the home of my family, but as far as being raised, it was, Lynnwood California.

XZ -- Let me get at you with this routine question because the answers compared with othrs is haunting. So, how old were you when you got arrested for whatever
landed you onto deathrow?

DTO -- 22 years old. Awh yeah, that's crazy, huh? all of us are young huh?

XZ -- It's like they execute people when they get like in they're 50's and 60's. feel me? But the reality is they are giving the young generation the death penalty, from the jump.

DTO -- That's cold huh? Because I won't even be done with appeals when I turn 35 in the future.

XZ -- Not even close! Trip, is deathrow anything like you thought it was, before you got here?

DTO -- You know, to be honest I never really thought about it before, because I thought this place was foir fools that rape and killed like 18 females and cases like that. I didn't know, how you say, "Street Level" things, Like a shoot out in the hood could do this, They don't even put us on the same yard with those people that be eating victims and crazy shit.

XZ -- You're firing on all cylinder right now, because it's like our generation thas up gere, got "Street Level" crimes, We were accused of things compared to how the 70's & 80's got down, with zero "Street Level" shit. We are here with individuals that were eating people, Boy, what the hell? LOL.

DTO -- So what happen? They just started; Oh yeah they added that new list of special circumstances? I seen some of them. Now justr saying you're from a gang can be used as a special circumstance.

XZ -- To qualify to get put up here, exactly. Man it's all about money and power or some demon ic sick shit. Whatever it is, foul. They cam legally kill me if I admot I'm a member of a gang. I wonder how many of our next generation even knows this?

DTO -- Thats some sick and twisted shit vbecause they say don't kill, but they want to kill legally. Like killing is only legal for thm and unlegal or not legal for other people. That don't make sense.

XZ -- I mean I neer said it like that but you're right. i wonder if you can explain sick and twisted in your art work because I've seen some your art work, can you say that with art?

DTO - And you mean like tell a story but not with words? It's funny you say that because I just did a drawing and I put sick and twisted on it. I mean everybody gota way to explain the death penalty, but Ijust think of it in that way, so that's why I say it's sick and twisted. Tell Piankhi I'll shoot it, so people can check it out in the zine.

XZ-- umber one, thank you,number two how long have you been drawing?

DTO -- I'd say in elementary school was when I started.

XZ -- Man I can't draw to save my life, but I'm noticing alot of our new generation can get off,so before I challenge you with an idea, lets open some history.
