You media people need to stop treating tagging like it's funny. Taggers, or their backups in the shadows, have killed people. Cops in California can tell you that.

How we stop treating Artists like criminals.
Taggers have killed people?!?! So have doctors, lawyers, presidents, Mothers, and small children. In general a "tagger" is marking gang territory. I somehow doubt our CASH friendly stencil friend was going commit murder.

Well youve got this all twisted.. theres gang graffiti and graffiti writers... theres a big difference... graff writers do it for the art and fun and fame... gang members put up the names of their streets, certain alphanumerical combinations always in an ugly non artistic manner... give graffiti a break.. is changing the surface of smomething really such a big crime i mean who did he hurt? i think he made more people happy than sad... I happen to like alot of graffiti pieces.. go stare at a blank wall in your ugly modern homes if you dont enjoy graffiti.. its not for you its for the rest of us who enjoy it and im pretty sure we out number you..we the soft spoken.......
