I was in Prague in 1991 and saw it transforming from communism to capitalism over a summer. I saw the Soviet soldiers patrolling the train coming in from Berlin, and I saw them leave the country a month later. I saw new shops and bars start popping up, and failing just as quickly. But mostly I remember the most beautiful, historic gem of a city I had ever seen.

Recently, I was looking at Google Street view images of the Prague I remember. The entire city is covered in graffiti. The medieval stone wall around the castle, known as the "Hunger Wall," which was one of the first things I saw in the city as I had arrived in the dark of night, is now covered with territorial pissings. It makes me absolutely sick.
