i do it because i enjoy the thought of people looking at it and thinkin "man, who are the people who do this? when do they do it? i never see them but theres always graffiti!!!"

graffiti is expressive, it can be beautiful, political, both or neither, it is whatever you want it to be and theres nothing else like it in the world.

most definately "fuck the government, theyll never stop graffiti. ever."

I just noticed the statement "it makes the community look dirty and horrible".

This is an entirely subjective opinion. Graffiti done well looks fantastic and I've spoken to many people, both old and young, including people over sixty and they agree.

You may not like it, but I don't like all the billboards advertising the latest crappy American comedy, or telling me how I should wear whatever new cheap-ass fragrance from Lynx.

Advertising makes the community look dirty and horrible.
