I think this might be the same person who did this last time, it's very close to where I saw the last one. Which the city dealt with in a matter of days from when I saw it, so maybe this particular canvas of street art will also get cleaned/painted over.

(I'm not against street art - I'm rather fond of some of the prettier examples of it as an art form, and tagging is an interesting form of self expression - I just said that in that I'm curious how long it will take the city to do something about this tag, since the previous one I found on City property also caused it and nearby graffiti to be quickly cleaned when previously ignored, and graffiti on a trash receptacle is the ultimate "not worth cleaning".)

so you and other anti graffiti people in this thread type on here all day about wanting a revolution, taking breaks inbetween to scratch your ass and then not wash your hands before putting them back on the keyboard, but cant handle something as innocuous as street art from someone who is probably a teenager? seriously, how are you going to do anything meaningful in the overthrow of capitalism if this gets you riled enough to post about it?

if you knew anything about the history of street art you would understand why people do it. im not a street artist but i am inclined to defend them because i belong to the marginalized groups that started it

    I'm not trying to be anti graffiti here! I don't always understand it, but I do think it can be interesting to see, and to see what gets left alone and what gets "dealt with". I'm mostly just curious what'll happen next in the saga, and keeping you bears updated because you liked the last post.
