Popular Post BangkokReady Posted May 18, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 18, 2022 The annoying thing about this, is that although some people like "street art" and see it as being beneficial or improving the look of the area, people ignore the fact that some people don't like it and it also remains someone's property, which they might not want to be graffitied upon. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed. If he had a car I wonder if he would be pleased if someone sprayed poor graffiti all over it.

They both should be locked up for causing damage to property that is not theres! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan's Graffiti Problem - I'm Alan Partridge - BBC_Trim.mp4 Great reference. "We managed to rectify it though, it now says… by adapting it, it now says “cook” where it once said “cock”. And it says “pass” now, where it once said “<deleted>”. So it’s slightly less rude." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checked out some of his "work". Really just a lame "tag". You would think that a foreigner would think better than to just go around making the city he's being allowed to live in look worse. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adumbration Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 I once studied a very interesting legal case regarding graffiti. In central Australia there are some ancient rock paintings. A young lad fromt he local tribe sprayed his tag over several of the paintings. He was arrested and charged with malicious damage. Anthropoligical community was outraged. Barrister acting for the lad argued that it was not graffitti but merely the boys continution of the artistic endeavors of his ancestors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargeezr Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Find him, jail him then deport him. That should be the future for this jerk. graffiti and street art are like oranges and bananas, both fruit, but not the same at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
