War on graffiti: Who should pay for the cost of graffiti clean-up?

[rattailfilmvideos]

How can you make a property owner who commissions an art work on his/her property. How can you make a property owner pay for the illegal act of another who has defaced the owner of the property. There is many places in Toronto area that have commissioned art work by the city on the side of the buildings.If anyone has been given permission and commissioned to create an art work on their property no one has the right to make the owner remove it. This isn't graffiti,it's commissioned work of art

by the way i have a lot of respect for this cop he actually understands graffiti unlike many.

dont get me wrong im a graff lover but you gotta look at it from an entire city's perspective because thats the way the city will look at it.

making store owners pay is wrong i disagree with that %100 but the change must come from the people to help these store owners. unfortunately in our society us as people dont have the upperhand in every situation.

@zenoneprod it was recently in the news that their buffing artists murals. Ford has no respect for any form of art. Believe me like many other artists if Ford buffed my mural best believe many would take it to the streets and vandalize everything in their way. He's just pissing a bunch of people off. Instead of cleaning toronto graffiti it just blinds people by the fact that our lake ontario, air quality and garbage is what truly needs to be cleaned. Glad to see Ford is doing something useless.

@mikesdjftr no one except the city should pay for it. if its the city that has a problem with it they should deal with it

[mikesdjftr]

@zenoneprod not if you get store owners permission. If the store owner likes it and you like it then let it be. I'm sick of seeing fucking advertisements everywhere i go where psychologists are hired to deliberately make you feel inadequate to buy their product. And i'm sick of seeing anti graffiti ads everywhere feeding lies to the public that graffiti artists are some sort of criminal.

graffiti doesnt need to be eradicated however TAGS will never be considered art. especially when you get youngins goin out and ruining it for people with talent, by going around and literally vandalizing things. stick to the books before writing your slop everywhere.
