Don't you know?  It's just artistic expression and enhances the vibe in the neighborhood.....at least that's the BS we hear to justify graffiti vandalism on public property.

[Dog Walker]

I knew I would get a rise out of you, Stephen!   

Actually I do not advocate those things as punishment.  I would prefer the removal of thumbs.   

[icarus]

Not the thumbs .. the index fingers .. that way its harder to use spray paint .. ;-)

I wouldnt be surprised to find out that this is a new advertising logo.  Its actually pretty catchy.

Already taken, unfortunately.

"Death to False Pizza" is a Portland thing.

Sizzle Pie is the name of the chain that uses it as their marketing slogan.

So, is it real? Or advertising?  Or a mislabeled photo to begin with?

Can we call this tagger "Sizzle Pies Ghost"?

DEATH TO THE FALSE PIZZA!
CHEESE FOR THE CHEESE GOD!
CRUST FOR THE CRUST THRONE!

This is how it starts. Soon we shall set the galaxy aflame on an immortal crusade to crush the false pizza. Gluten? Oh yes... there will be gluten.

and now its on there permanently.  omg.  how will mellow mushroom recover?

you should be ashamed of yourself, dogwalker.  please stop conflating the practice of 'tagging' with graffitti art.  You know the difference, its been explained several times for you.

Can you explain the difference? Because the VERY definition of graffiti is that it is unlawful:
https://www.google.com/search?q=define+graffiti

writing or drawings scribbled, scratched, or sprayed illicitly on a wall or other surface in a public place.

I just don't get how you can defend the stupidity of the criminals in multiple threads. Would you like it if they made your car in to an "art project?" omg, now you can go to the body shop, how will you ever recover??? 

[coredumped]

really?  wow.

I guess its because Im for anarchy, doom and the criminals, right?

If you arent for burning all of the old women to death as witches, then you must be for Satan, right?

Again, other than being your sarcastic self, can you answer the question on why you're OK with this type of criminal activity when it clearly hurts/costs business owners? No, this isn't murder, but the criminals that do this are pretty low on the human evolutionary scale.

[coredumped]

Other than being offensive, can you explain why you think its ok to say that I support criminality?

Who am I being offensive to? Criminals? And to answer your question from this thread:

and now its on there permanently.  omg.  how will mellow mushroom recover?

I'm too lazy to look up your quotes in other threads, but when it comes to this topic you always seem to be of the attitude "oh big deal, so they have to paint over it."

Why do you think these criminals should not be punished for their crimes? What do you suggest instead? A hug? I'm not saying a public shooting is in order, but certainly a fine and definitely jail time for repeat offenders.

[coredumped]

to me, which relieves me of the burden of having to respond to you at all, thank you.

Well, that's one way of avoiding a question that was asked 4 times on a discussion forum:)

All kidding aside, I am sorry if I offended you, that was never my intention. I don't know where I did, but again, sorry.

Thinking out loud: There are crimes of passion (murder of a hated person); of greed (like Madoff); survival (robbery for money to live on); etc. In what category could we put graffiti vandalism? The six or so who were arrested months ago were all old enough to be past whatever motivates juveniles; they were showing off to one another. But juvenile or adult, they all know that they are harming someone else's property and for no reason other than some twisted idea of self-gratification.

We're too damn permissive these days. Lock up some of these folks for a few months and the example it sets will probably bring this kind of vandalism to a screeching halt. Behave, dammit or bear the consequences! It's a life lesson.
