[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by Big_Boy_4005</i> <br /><br />I get so tired of all of the holier than thou attitudes here. I actually happen to like graffiti on railroad cars. It makes them more visually interesting. I think it shows real class to deliberately NOT cover reporting marks. It does not impare the functioning of the cars, and may help to prevent rust. <br /> <br />Trying to stop it is like pissing into the wind, so why waste the limited police resources. Police time is much better spent catching people who break into containers and steal merchandise. <br /> <br />Railroad graffiti is not necessarily gang related, though it can be. Gang graffiti is more closely associated with stationary objects, and railroad cars move. Yes, gang members will hit cars when stopped on their turf. Personally, I can't think of too many classy neighborhoods with railroad tracks in them. <br /> <br />Yeah, it's a crime, but it is highly impersonal when done on trains. Perhaps you would rather they be painting your car or your house. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br /> <br />HOLY CHRIST, LOOK! It's another one! One of only a few! One of only a few who's not old, spiteful, lacking imagination, and angry at the world! By gollyballs! <br /> <br />Wow, am I hearing this correctly? I must concur with your words a bit. While I may not be the biggest fan of graffiti, I am a friend of logic and wisdom...
