Now this is how you throw down some paint

how did they do it... like why would it be stopped so long with the doors closed... and how did they not get arrested.

sweet team effort. and i thought it was going to be a whack tag but it looks good.
 
that was sick, i gotta try that one day... that musta taken a shit load of painti wonder how they got the train to stop...
 
thats cool that got talent like that but i dont agree with screwing around andruining some elses property
 
Dude, your tax dollars don't go to repainting that. You look like you are all of about 15 years old. You live in uniontown, PA which proves my point even further for two reasons. One, there's only about one reason you would live in PA if you like to ski and thats because you live with your parents or where your parents want you to live because of school and because they are supporting you. Which in turn means yet again that it isn't your tax dollars it's your parents.

Furthermore, it isn't even your parent's tax dollars anyway. That would be a municipally funded clean up crew or maybe even possibly a private company dependant upon who owns that particular transit system. Also, it doesn't even look like that train is in north america.

And lastly, those fruit tooters that tagged up the inside of that bus in San Fran are chachis. That shit is so amateur.
 
If they're such artists, why dont they make some real art.

The truth is they were writing on canvas that they didnt own. The city at large owns those busses and trains and if it were the will of the people to have nonsense written all over them then their actions would be acceptable. As it is not the consnsus of the people its becomes clear that the actions of those few holligans are nothing more than defamation and a pathetic attempt at notriety.

Assholes.
 
one of them has a wierd ass mop, with the extended head. i only saw it in one shot. but anyways, i had something to say but i havent slept in 38 hours now, so, i forgot.
 
im not gonna lie to you, i fucking hate kids who do that. What artistic value does a fucking half-assed signature or a bunch of letters in black ink have? Other than ruining a window. Those kids need a beating. That subway was sick stuff, actual art, that I don't mind seeing because it is eye pleasing, but that shit is simply ridiculously lame and not gangster.
 
Wrong. It's unsactioned defamation of public property. If said 'graffiti artists' asked the city for permission or did their work on things that THEY owned then it would almost be art..
 
1. i am 18, glad your such a great judge of age

2. what the fuck does where i live have to do with anything, tagging is a problem all around the country.

3.MUNICIPALLY FUNDED CLEAN UP CREW. who funds the municipality. exactly, taxpayers

 
haha yea i love that subway one i saw it a few weeks ago and tha bus one is fucking great. the bus driver didnt even see them hahah and yea graffiti is an art

Art

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For other uses, see Art (disambiguation).

The Bath, a painting by Mary Cassatt (1891-1892).By its original and broadest definition, art (from the Latin ars, meaning "skill" or "craft") is the product or process of the effective application of a body of knowledge, most often using a set of skills; this meaning is preserved in such phrases as "liberal arts" and "martial arts". However, in the modern use of the word, which rose to prominence after 1750, “art” is commonly understood to be skill used to produce an aesthetic result (Hatcher, 1999). Britannica Online defines it as "the use of skill and imagination in the creation of aesthetic objects, environments, or experiences that can be shared with others"[1]. By any of these definitions of the word, artistic works have existed for almost as long as humankind, from early pre-historic art to contemporary art.

oh snap, i forgot that the MUNICIPALITY funds itself with bakesales and lemonade stands. and i also forgot that private companies providing public service like to clean things up like that for free....

im down with grafiti that is tasteful and actually improves the look of whatever it's painted on. but spray painting and coloring BTS all over the inside of a bus is just fuckin retarded, not to mention immature as shit.
 
urban dictionary style

GRAFFITI 210 up, 95 down

An element of the Hip Hop culture misinterpreted and misrepresented by the mainstream media, and most especially hated by affluent (usually white) businessmen who don't understand the roots or meaning of the writing on the walls.

Contrary to popular belief, Graff is NOT any of the following: writing on houses of worship, people's houses in general, other writer's names, or tombstones. The aforementioned need not be identified with bus, train, subway and wall burners. That's REAL graffiti, the visual aspect of Hip Hop accompanied by the physical (breakdance), verbal (emceeing), and rhythmic (turntablism).

Since Graffiti is an element in Hip Hop just as important as DJing, MCing and Breaking, any assault on Graffiti (i.e., calling it "vandalism", "not art", etc.) should be viewed as an assault on Hip Hop altogether.

From the beginning, the powers that be have sought afte the destruction of our culture, from transit authorities chasing after writers, to housing police harassing people at block parties, to lawsuits being filed against DJs for sampling ("copyrighted" material). Now it may seem like everything is okay since Rap has hit the mainstream, but the major corporations threaten its existence every day. Remember the last Rap video you saw on TV. Did you see any tags, any DJs working the wheels of steel, any B-Boys tearing up the floor, any MCs really rocking the party? Or was it just images of scantily clad females, guys flashing their "bling", and "gangstas" shooting their guns off? Chances are it was the latter, the money-making gimmick that corporations such as MTV make money off of today.

These very same corporations, usually headed by conservative individuals who "care" about their buildings, are the organisations which lobby for tighter anti-graffiti laws. So it may seem that "Hip Hop" is all well with mainstream America, but they're actually destroying us from within, in more than one way.

Long live Graffiti!

 
1) Oh no, I was off by 3 years. At any rate, your wage is probably about the size of my pinky finger and I would be willing to hedge a bet that you haven't paid a single tax dollar in your life.

2) Where you live has everything to do with your point of "glad my tax dollars go to pay for the cleanup", because like I said, it would be the municipality that cleaned that train up...not the federal government. And since you don't live where that train was tagged, not a red cent of your tax dollars would even go towards the clean up of it anyway.

3) Taxpayers who live in the particular municipality, make money within that municipality and own Real property in that municipality pay for that clean up crew. Not 18 year old pecker heads who live in union town with mommy and daddy.

While there is no arguement that eventually it does come down to someone paying for that clean up. It certainly isn't you, so my point of rebuttal is that you can shut the fuck up now.
 
i was just making a generalization that bullshit tags like that ARE costing money to the taxpayers. not directly impyling that I paid for that train to be cleaned up.

sorry, im just fed up of complete nonsense that usually doesn't look good anyways. but your right on alot of points
 
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah no 1 gives a fuck dude and ya that train isnt in the U.S. but if it was yes 9 outa 10 times his parents would in someway maybe contribute a penny to that clean up if that but it would be their money going towards it. Municipally funded eh? did the new paint or paint removle shit just fall out of the fuckin sky or maybe they brew it up themselves at their municipal graffiti removle center.
 
Again, let me stress that my point was not that the municipality funds itself...but it was that the kid who pissed and moaned about "glad my tax dollars go to clean that up" can piss and moan in his own mouth and all over his stupid face. No matter what the scenario...even if he did turn a profit working at burger king over the summer and was paying tax...it wasn't the type of tax that would go to the crew that may or may not have had to clean that up. Municipal government is funded by local company income and wage tax, property tax, automobile tax, and a myriad of other possiblities dependant upon the particular locale. Moral of the story is, sally susanne up there trying to act like "Mr Big Shot Taxpayer" really couldn't have possibly contributed anything useful at all. We don't even know where that train is...but it doesn't look like it's in union town to me.

And to your last point...if you would read my post. You will see that I referred to those fag tags that were markering up that bus as amateurs and I am in no way condoning their idiocy.
 
whatever man i could really give a fuck but im sure he wasnt saying like "oh my fuckin god wow im going to go kill those people im so serious right now they are making me waste my tax money omg where the fuck are those kids omg im so pissed omg" i think he just said that as a general statement as its going to come out of someones pocket and if it was in america it would come out of an americans pocket and maybe even someone on this board if it happened in their town.
 
Furthermore, not ALL public transit in this or any country is governmentally provided. There are train systems and other forms of public transit which are privately held companies whom don't see much in the way of tax funding. They fund themselves and at most see possibly a tax break on their earnings dependant upon their deal with that particular areas government. So when I say that it could have been a private clean up, I do not mean a private company funded by tax dollars. I mean a private company that would absorb the cleanup into their bottomline and therefore not soak out one single tax paying penny. At most if in the worste case scenario it became such a problem that it was putting a major dent into the profit of that transportation company's accounts, their may be a fare hike which would fall upon the tax paying economy. But for now a third time, none of this is my point. My point is that kid in PA isn't contributing shit. And neither are you for that matter.
 
dude why keep ranting about what i said after i apoligized and said you were right on alot of points. your right i didnt technically pay for that train to be fixed, which i guess i implied that i did.

but graffiti cleanup is a percentage of where local taxes go to. which was my point that bullshit tags like this are a waste of money.

and i think you can agree with that
 
did you see me say i was contributing anything? dont fuckin call me out like i said shit. but that looked a lot like a city transportation system to me but your prolly a rich suberb kid and you have never seen one of those things!
 
Hahahaha ok sugar tits. You may be right, I may be rich and I may live in the suburbs...but my money came from me, myself and I. I made my ski career and I spun my ski career and my income from that off into a business career which grew exponentially. But I think you were thinking more along the lines of my mommy and daddy? Haha thats funny, I've made more money than my "mommy and daddy" probably ever will, ever.

BTW, since we are on the topic of rich kids living in the suburbs off of mommy and daddy like it's a bad thing. Who paid for that EVO in your profile?
 
i went to school in downton seattle for 4 years home boy! ya i got money so what, but i been in the city for years.
