More appropriate title would be “Ashvegas Vandalism.”
Not sure what sense of entitlement gives the trustafarians the notion that it’s OK to deface someone else’s property. And, yes, I’ve seen the WLOS stories over the years, read the Mtn Xpress article a year or so back, etc., with interviews from the “taggers.” None of it comes close to making sense. We’re not talking civil disobedience in the name of civil rights or some other noble cause. Heck, this isn’t even to the level of a Critical Mass bike clog-up (with which I also disagree, but understand the rationale behind). This is just some punk kids or adults damaging property.
Dr. Huxtable, off of Clingman, like down under the I-240 bridge? Of which church do you speak? I’ll check it out.
EM: yes, there’s a future there! no worries.
Chelsea: we do try to be hip, though we’re a few years behind y’all up there in the big city.
Oh, look! Graffiti like in nyc! Only in North Carolina! That’s so sweet!
Wait, the top photo looks familiar. Oh yeah, my preschooler painted something similar on our front porch last week. Think he has a future as a graffiti artiste?
If you’re looking for some great tags, check up off of Clingman, outside the river district, kinda next to downtown. There’s a lot behind a church there, that’s the hotspot.
