This great abstraction remains unblemished, unfortunately some people in The Mission and other neighborhoods are taking to the awfully distasteful, horrible habit of tagging street art that an artist has probably spent hours, days or weeks working on. Ah, the price you pay if you post your work out in the open. I know, right? Still, you’d like to believe we could live in a world where whoever needs to vent their anger, frustration, creativity or any other mood that strikes he or she upon pulling out the spray paint, would find somewhere else to do it and not destroy somebody else’s work. Or, not do it at all since, well, it’s illegal. Graffiti on graffiti? Somewhat oxymoron-ish, isn’t it? Suppose city supervisors and lawyers would have trouble trying to fashion a law protecting street art. So we leave it to neighbors and other local residents to LEAVE THE STREET ART ALONE!
