Hey I saw one of my friends reading this thread and I just wanted to chime in on this subject. A lot of writers do very positive and incredible work. Take for example banksy who painted this on the wall between Israel and Palestine. Many writers have a vision of a more beautiful city and surroundings by expressing themselves on public property. Murals under bridges, in the parks, etc. It’s against the law yes, but there is a bold statement being made there and it isn’t hurting anyone. Especially if it’s a newly created masterpiece replacing a gray wall.
Obviously, this writer doesn’t understand the difference between public and private property, and is immature and highly disrespectful. The only problem comes in when you make a snap judgement on all writers, and suggest that they be reported to the authorities. But not anywhere near all writers would vandalize someone’s private property, and you may be hating on or turning in a writer who is very aware and respectful of the line between expression and disrespect. And there can be some serious penalties for these types of things.
Just hope that everyone here understands that like many groups in life, the assholes and n00bs among them give them a bad name, and there’s two sides to the story.
