    • We can walk and chew gum at the same time. There are other crimes also being covered here and elsewhere, but this is a serious crime worth covering. I hope besides doing time and paying a hefty fine, that these two ingrates are forced to clean up their graffiti –and maybe more.

      • Before I became a kind and loving person, I thought bending back one or more of the graffiti artists fingers until they snapped might deter them from future vandalism.

  1. Glad to see that this activity was stopped. It’s not meaningless. Who wants their property claimed and disrespected by gangs and their wannabes?
