I think that random people should be allowed to tattoo whatever inane things they want all over the tagger’s body. Wherever they want. Forehead. Nose. Hands. Wherever. And whatever.

… if there was another thread attacking graffiti.

Tagging is stupid, true. Fine them, make them clean it up. If they fuck up again… then it’s the bloody scourge and fasting for them…

Oh, and not all of us that defend legitimate graffiti art are not pot-smoking, goatee-growing, latte-drinking 20 somethings. Some of it can be very beautiful. Refer to the Great Debate on graffiti for more.
