Trespassing is cool?

Defaming the property of others is cool?

Why are cars not cool, but trucks are cool?

This is NOT COOL. This is vandalism and trespassing.
And its COOL, not KOOL. I know its a street slang, but please why can't people use proper grammar?

These are crimes that should be punished by fines and jail.

It's hard to think like a goody goody.

It's the adrenaline. But whatever. I seen tags on trains passing by my neighborhood in L.A., often times I forget to bring my camera. I remember finding some amazing pieces in Chicago when I stopped by a train yard. I took my car down by the harbor where there was train cars and took pictures of some amazing pieces.

This is the internet dude, not school or work. P30p1e c@n sP3ll h0w3v3r th3 w@y th3y w@nt. So get used to it or never use the internet again. As for graffiti, i dont really give a **** about it. If people wanna risk fines or jail time just to paint a few letters on a side of a truck then go right ahead.

You wouldn't be saying the same thing if it was your truck or van.
This is why quality of life crimes are important. If you let these things slide you end up with the breakdown of society. See late 1960s, early 1970s NYC for an example.

There's an unwritten rule that private property is crossing the line.

I would have loved to see NYC in the 70's and 80's. Watchin a graffiti covered train must have been an amazing site. The origin of hip hop, breakdancing, the turn table, MC'ing.
