When I wrote this post, I was thinking of Donald Trump and how he puts his name on buildings, such as the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. Which, he announced yesterday or today, is going to be closed for renovations he wants to make.

I don't like Graffiti on buildings either but I loved how Pembroke in Canada, my local town to shop, handled the problem. They hired real artists to come and paint local scenes from past days. like when the would send the Logs down river or early faming and or shops!. Much nicer to look at.

Wow, I understand it on bridges, etc. Not on local business buildings. Misspent youth with a lack of direction. Back to the golden rule. If everyone knew, or had family, who had their own business. They would have more respect. They think that just because you have a business, you are fair game. Basically, the grass is greener on the other side. Actually, it is brown on the ridges. LOL

Yes! They call it art. I call it vandalism. One of the mysteries of graffiti is how they perform their "spray art" on bridges and other locations that only Spiderman can get to.
