well that's a lame ass stereotype.

Mutt · 12-25-2003, 02:01 PM

they are expressing themselves not vandalizing - art of the people.

some of us weren't born into families where we got 64 packs of Crayolas, paints canvas and easels.

Why don't competing gang members vandalize each other's cars with non-removable grafitti?

That would be fun to see.

I think it's more of an income issue than a race issue. Ever seen the highway walls or cliffs outside little hick whitebread towns? They're usually covered with years and years of paint scrawls.

the sad but true fact is that most, i'd say the grand majority of graffiti writers are white.

i'm an active writer in montreal. in other words, i do graffiti. and i am not a minority.
i know a good majority of the writers in my city, and very few are minorities. for example, i only know two black writers in my city.

perhaps you're confusing graffiti with gang vandalism. there are significant and important differences.

this is art. and it's all done with spraypaint.

pornguy · 12-25-2003, 02:18 PM

You should see tha wall here in Gainesville that the students paint.

The city gave up trying to stop them, and now allow it as long as the area is kept clean and they are not painting hate material of any kind. Every not and then you will see prats that have been painted over in white paint. A place where some asshole decided to put something that is illegal...

It may be "writing" when you do it on your own property, it's vandalism when you do it on someone elses.

what exactly does that have to do with the topic at hand?
we're discussing whether or not the majority of vandals are minorities

thanks for participating.

Why don't they express themselves on their own walls. Some graffiti is really great looking, and a lot of these kids have talent. But they should practice their shit on their own walls, and actually start getting paid for it. There's a few graff artists here that get paid big bucks to do walls for businesses and such.

Scootermuze · 12-25-2003, 07:33 PM

The sad part is.. many of these kids could make big bucks with their talent if they put it to use in the right places...
