Let me catch you tagging My building and you'll get an ass full of bird shot.

When the politicians hang their posters on public/private property without permission do you shoot them also?

No he didn't die. Robbo is king of graffiti in the UK and Banksy is king of street art. Banksy is hailed by the general public and Robbo by the more underground graffiti artists. http://londonist.com/2011/08/robbofundraiser.php
The war started when Banksy defaced one of Robbos paintings.

Well, let's see. It is illegal for politicians here to put advertising on public property so I guess they would have their happy ass out there removing it.

Perhaps you could post a link showing where that has happened?

It is illegal for them to put it on private property without permission so I guess their happy ass would be out there removing it.

Perhaps you could post a link showing where that has happened?

If they're putting it on My property, it is a poster which can be ripped down in a second or 2 but I'd still have their happy ass out there removing it.

Just how would you do that?

In case you havent been able to guess, tagging with spray paint is a bit different from a poster. Paint takes time, effort and money to remove.

Do you not think it cost time, effort and money to send crews around removing all of these posters?

I bought my building and personally spent tens of thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours personally rehabbing it so it can be used as office space.

So do other property owners...what is your point?


That's right boy.

Here we go with the name calling...do you really think it makes your point to call me boy?


I did every bit of the work except the electrical and HVAC.

Your point would be?

I have a proposition for ya tommy boy. Come tag it and find out.

That is the third nick you have given me ...I will stick with the one that best suits you...punk ass motherfucker.

I promise to be loaded with "Cheney shot" and not Buck.

You might want to check with your local law enforcement folks or a lawyer and find out how many years you would get for such a moronic act.

Your comparison is totally idiotic.

Only to those who refuse to see the same law applies to both acts.

One is legal advertising that is done by permission.

When did we start discussing legal advertising done by permission?

The other is vandalism and destruction of property.

Wrong it is defacing not destruction...the two words are not synomymous.

I am very conflicted by this topic. There is a part of me… the rebellious, anti-authoritarian, rebellion-for the-sake-of-rebellion… part that wholly approves of “guerilla” art. But another part of me finds the whole notion to be the self-aggrandizing and very immature. Much of it depends, I suppose, on whether or not we like the work in question. If we like it, then it is “art.” If we don’t like it, then it is “graffiti.”

In the end it all comes down to respect. If you respect others, their rights, their property, then you are not going to deface such property with bullshit “tags” that really do nothing more that proclaim “I was here” or “this is my turf.” It is the “artistic” equivalent of a four year old’s temper tantrum.

So, if all you’re going to do is spray paint vulgar language, your initials, or some repetitive “icon,” then I’d say grow up, get a life, and maybe take a shot at some “serious” art (many cities now have art center where studio space can be rented). If you are going to engage in some guerilla art then at least put some thought into it and make it something that (at least) some people will appreciate (ya can’t please everybody) and will generate serious controversy and discussion.

One of my favorite examples of what I’d call guerilla art is the late great Pink Lady of Malibu.

Here are some photos of the Pink Lady in color.

Against My better judgement, I'll address your utter idiocy.

If it was "utter idoicy" you would not respond.

There is a little thing here called a sign ordinance. Politicians can only place signs on private property with permission. Violators face fines. due to this, one phone call is all it takes to have unwanted signs removed with an apology.

Is that why the electric company and the phone company have to spend millions of dollars annually removing these postings?

Regarding protection of personal property. When you live in a small town and know the cops and judges personally, nice things happen.

Then I am sure you can post up numerous cases where folks in tenn. have shot people for tagging and not been prosecuted..

Defacing and destruction of property. Both give a property owner the right to defend and prevent it.

You might want to chat with an atorney about what you can do to defend and prevent someone from tagging your property.

Tennessee isnt California.

Last I heard it is part of the u.s.

Your statement about political signs. By definition, they are advertising. Are you being deliberately obtuse about that as usual?

How is a political advertisement placed illegally on private or public property any different than a tagger or a "street artist" placing their stuff illegally on public or private property?

Also, as usual, if you wish to take another nice vacation from the boards, keep up with the personal name calling.


If you do not like being called a punk ass motherfucker then stop acting like one by calling me names.


I'd say that by now, the mods have your posting priveleges on speed dial.

If you are so concerned why don't you ask them about how they feel about me returning the favor of your name calling?

In one of towns that I live in there two city ordinances that affect self hung signs.  One is that it's illegal to post signs on utility poles and you can be fined for doing so.  The other is in regards to political signs.  It states that signs can only be placed on property where there is consent to do so and that all signs have to be removed by a specific time frame after the election.  That also carries a fine if the city has to remove it.

Most every city of any size, has these ordinances.
can, you cite any time it has been enforced against politicians or political parties?

As for calling you "tommy lad" When you stop acting like a petulant 12-year old. I'll stop treating you llike one.

No a punk ass motherfucker like yourself seems to think that by making a personal attack you somehow enhance your argument.
All you succeed in doing is proving your status as a punk ass motherfucker.
