Graffiti and What's Being Done to Prevent It?

I saw a thing on the news a while ago about the big grafitti problem in Saskatoon. They interviewed on guy who probably was a grafitti artist (of course he didn't admit it) and he said that no one will put grafitti over top of someone else's unless they can do better. That probably explains why your mural hasn't been touched, Joe. <br /> <br />In any case, I hate these guys and think that there should be stiff penalties for people who are caught! Repainting rolling stock would be nice, but there is a down side to it. If the railroads started rapainting all their old cars, we'd lose a lot of old logos from fallen flags that are still around today. The reason we still see fallen flags is because the railroads often leave cars without any repainting for 25-30+ years. I'd sooner see grafitti and fallen flags than no grafitti and no fallen flags. I do still think that some effort should be made to at least block out any offensive or dirty words.
