MTA blocks in L.A. River BUFFED

[TheSchaedelspalter]

fuck that!!!! stole a piece of LA

fucking haters

[GreasyHair237]

One word: " HATERS!!!!"

[RENOCAKRUE]

Wowwww causee peoplee only go outt to la and peep the graff that's bs we take the time they take it away

[MicBain81]

Great idea! Because everyone would rather look at grey concrete along the river... fucking idiots. They should encourage writers and other artists to turn it into the biggest outdoor art gallery on the planet. It makes me sick spending all that money to paint over harmless works of art. Then again, maybe they want to use the space for advertising, art which is just as offensive, but OK because it generates lots of money, and hey - that's what it's all about right? (pfffffftt!)

[saltyshoelace]

3.7 million dollars spent on buffing when kids in schools don't even have text books from this century. Damn.

[guycats]

biggest waste of money haha, theyre painting white over white for fuck sake! total idiots

[RedRumHTV]

[SkateText]

[stardocker]

I say they the artist all get together and buys tons of paint and just do mutiple ones that big one night one hit wonder. And please use the paint that cant becovered very well this time. Pretty sure that the tags down there arent harming any one. Hell get people to get permants and let them cover it. they could use it to show off and show off art pieces. Yes I know weird location but hell Id go If there was a shit ton of people.

[METAMAN360]

[BlazinOnPurp]

Way to blow tax payers money, i would be pissed if i lived in cali.

And i think it's fair to assume that this is very un-popular among graff heads and the average cali citizen alike, what a waste of money.

[mississippiredneck84]

MTA's tag may have been gone over,but MTA will never die

[CyniacuL]

[pineapplepootytang]

3.7 million dollars of tax payer funds will be used to make the LA river look even shittier than it did before.

[Bertintremors]

[DilemmaHipHop]

they spent millions of dollars in this economy we have today just to cover up some damn paint on the concrete, its not even like its vulgar or offensive imagery. wow

[iamsteinar]

[MajorFailTV]

IF ITS COSTING SOO MUCH MONEY WHY DONT YOU STOP WASTING MONEY ON TAKING "GRAFFITI" DOWN. WHO THE FUCK IS GETTING HURT?!

[thebadcrue822]

[Callmeslim11]

Thanx a lot u guys just ruined one of the greatest rollers in the world..

[speedneeded2]

if it costs all these people so much money then why go to the hassle of painting over it then? surely its an improvement to just concrete...? its not like graffiti hurts anyone is it? aslong as there's taggers and graff artists they will just keep making "canvas'" look sick! graff wont die!

[dedpossum66]

If they are so fuckin pissed about being "green" then don't paint over that and put more paint in it... That's an artists land mark!! Think of the money they could have made.

[ArmaniAttack]

Why spend money to cover it up? Thats stupid. 

[Janzzki]

[Welljusthi]

[clownbreaker]

they spend 10 million? wtf it doesnt harm anyone and it looks alot better than a fuckn big ass white blob!

[Ostblockkanackenrap]

i hate you :(

[MrJesusjuice1990]

so they'd rather waste their money on buffing a landmark instead of using that money to buy books for students or help with other IMPORTANT things. but instead create a new canvas for others to fight and kill themselves over....America, you are the weakest link, goodbye!

[crayz745]

waste of my money

[Peta659]

waste of fucking money! seriously fuck these douche bag bitches!

[mattplasse88]

That's right let's get every non violent offernder we can behind bars.

[playahatincrew]

All I got to say is, 'RETARDS"!

[Nitemare54231]

what a waste of money, that was a landmark, history, etc.

[Bugeddd]

FYI it said "3.7 million will be taken from tax payers to buff over 100 miles of canals.......etc etc"

This piece itself didn't cost $3.7million to buff.

FUCK THE BUFF

[Bugeddd]

FYI it said "3.7 million will be taken from tax payers to buff over 100 miles of canals.......etc etc"

This piece itself didn't cost $3.7million to buff.

FUCK THE BUFF

[TheSKULL594]

taggers are the shitt!!!! fuck cops!! dat would've been funny if MTA did the same roller over the buff that same night..

[SuicideXBombers]

the money that was left over was taken by the greedy officials

[7376ah]

they would of saved money if they just painted only the black outline with the same color from the filling then it would of been a white square .. unstead being all grey ahahahahaa dumbasses

[plebedeanaidd]

MTA is the most known graffiti in the river and for them to buff it out that's a bitch thay should do it over again

[thezwrk035]

is that a fucking river?

[stickaboy100]

Well to save some money , dont clean up amazing things like that! thumbs up '

[MrTanman94]

its a fucking river/canal who cares if theres graf in there..its not like its on some business building..but that woul dbe dope too :) haha

[elunicocri]

I think thats bullshit! I don't think Saber and the foos from MTA spent over $4,000 dollars in paint (including all of Saber's color paint) so it is incredible to me that they had to spend $4,000,000 to remove it with cheap white paint they buy in large quantities.

Our city is filled with money hungry liars.

[Neser273k]

To Paint Every City TPEC ---•NESER Loks

[nojus552]

[AkesDIS]

[graffitiman54]

that took alot of paint

[SaypheZonE]

removing grafitti is fuking retarded.  It's 2011 people. Grafitti is urban art. Stop trying to make LA some white picket fence suburb and let the city speak for itself

[zezetoze]

[sambo619trane]

[thepurplevelvet]

they should make the l.a river a legal graff zone and make it a landmark the l.a river is fucking ugly anyway talking about bringing money to l.a than wasting it and talk about tourism to paint there it would be like phucking disneyland for graffiti artist

[toasty303]

$3.7 million... only 1/5th of whats being spent on removing graff.

thats just in southern california. imagine how much money is wasted every year around the country on removing graffiti that they could just leave there.

and big ups to MTA for that monster piece

[Reack94]

[carloisgod]

[BombersParadise]

If They Would Only Realize How Much Money LA Would Save If They Just Gave Writers The Damn River Already! Like Wtf Common Already And Then Ur Guna Complain About Not Having Books For School Kids!! Shit Dont Make Sense! Im Positive That If They Gave Us The River There Would Be Less In The Streets! All Were Doing Is Painting! In A River That Nobodys Even Allowed Into For What? Being So Ugly And Dirty? Shit If Anything Charge $5 For Entrance And Buy These Kids Some New Books And Computers Already!!

[KLANTMK]

these guys are fuck stupid, they spend so much money in cleaning up graff when people are gonna just come back and do it again, if they wanna get rid of graff they need to spend money at schools and in slums unstead of cleaning things that are just gonna get dirty again, plus now the river looks like shit cos theres randomwhite patches all through it, ucking retards

[MrLank1]

why spend that kind of money to destroy such an amazing achievement?

It wont stop the crime rate? People dont go oh there isgraffiti here lets commit a crime?

[MegaAnu1]
