I thought I was the lone voice in the wilderness - but I too think this
obsession with graffiti is pointless. In fact - I've even seen some
graffiti I've rather liked. I guess some see it as a slippery slope; I see
it as a fine line. I do agree that the defacement of every flat surfaced
object in public is a nuisance, but I would rather spend my "civic duty"
energy on education, feeding the hungry etc. But hey, whatever .
