Just like they did for black culture, for decades democrats have elevated, promoted, and glamorized this ugly marking up of our walls and fences and infrastructure.

These people have poor self image.

They need something to feel positive about in their lives.

Hmmmmmm…..

Swimming lessons!

Take them 100 miles out in the Pacific and have them swim back in.

The USA needs to emulate Singapore if we really want to deter feral urbans from marking their territories:

https://irblaw.com.sg/learning-centre/vandalism-graffiti-singapore/

“It is an offence under the Act to commit any act of vandalism, attempt to do any such act or cause any such act to be done. Upon conviction, the penalty is a fine not exceeding S$2,000 or imprisonment not exceeding three years, and also the corporal punishment of not less than three strokes and not more than eight strokes of the cane.

However, caning will not be imposed on a first conviction if the activities carried out falls within section 2(a)(i) and “the writing, drawing, mark or inscription is done with pencil, crayon, chalk or other delible substance or thing and not with paint, tar or other indelible substance or thing”, or within sections 2(a)(ii) or (iii).”

Spokane, WA is on its way to being completely covered in graffiti. When we moved to the inland NW six years ago, it was very rare to see any graffiti anywhere except the downtown area of Spokane. Now the freeways, signs, bridge abutments, guardrails, sound walls and buildings are COVERED with it. The city keeps painting over it, but, just as in Portland, it’s a losing war.

The worst thing is it is headed east toward Idaho and, as near as can tell, Coeur d’Alene is totally unprepared for it. I’ve reported the occasional graffiti I’ve found around Coeur d’Alene to the city council and they have dealt with it immediately. In fact, one time I reported graffiti at a downtown park to the City Council around 7 pm and by 6 am it was gone.

It’s way past time we took despoiling our civic areas seriously. It’s an assault on all citizens. Long prison sentences are called for. I wouldn’t be unhappy seeing some hands lopped off the worst of them.

Graffiti is obviously not a victimless crime since the taxpayers are the victim in that they have to pay to get it cleaned up.

OK

Those ‘Artists’ are using spray paint cans.

They emit Climate Heating gasses when used.

Go after them for Global Warming.

I’ll wait and see . . . .

I was in Portland 2 weeks ago and was shocked at how much it had gone downhill in 7 years.

Graffiti is the symptom, not the problem. Be grateful for the warning signs they paint all over their nests.
