Well, you're correct about that, but yet you seem to have completely misinterpreted them none the less.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StreetScooby 5 #29 August 3, 2012 Quote What was the point of the original post? What is the intersection between art, social commentary, legitimate protest, and mindless vandalism? Hmmm.

In that case you can safely ignore every post made by me from this point forward (with the exception of official dz.com business) and I expect to never see another response from you about one of my postings again...

matthewcline 0 #34 August 3, 2012 In this case, I believe, it is vandalism. I think one could try and argue a Gov Owned Building being Vandalized is protected by free speech, but, I think it it would still be vandalism. MattAn Instructors first concern is student safety.

quade 4 #35 August 3, 2012 Yeah, I think it's an interesting question about where the line is. I specifically used the word wall rather than building because I'm fairly certain you'd get dinged for any mark you make on some government buildings, but I think there's a big grey area when it comes to others, IF the person is making a political statement as opposed to simply marking it. So let's say across the street from this restaurant was a public wall separating the neighborhood from a freeway... I dunno.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matthewcline 0 #36 August 3, 2012 Maybe we legalize it with a permit and they can protest on walls? Buy a permit write your protest out, it can stay for a set period of time, and then a new permit holder can protest over it! MattAn Instructors first concern is student safety.

quade 4 #37 August 4, 2012 Well as long as the permit doesn't cost anything, 'cause like, you know... free speech. quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

quade 4 #39 August 4, 2012 Chick-Fil-A had a crew repainting it this morning before noon. I don't think it was Banksy himself, but it also wasn't just the average tagger either. If you look at the cow part of it, you can see they made use of stenciling in a manner that's sort of Banksy-ish...quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jgoose71 0 #46 August 5, 2012 Quote ....... but in either case, his last line is correct. Are you talking about this last line? Quote At the end of the day, said Castro, "It's paint on a wall. It got removed in less than an hour. It's not that much of a crime -- it's a protest." In case you missed it, this was Streetscooby's problem earlier. The liberal tolerance to damaging property. It's not OK, no matter how you spin it. Keying your car can be easily fixed in a day, I guess it's not much of a crime-- it's a protest. Have fun with the rest of the OWS protesters smashing in Obama's campaign office in Oakland. Windows can be replaced in a day also. it's not much of a crime -- It's a protest. And the list of "Protests" go on and on and on......"There is an art, it says, or, rather, a knack to flying. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss."

jgoose71 0 #48 August 5, 2012 QuoteOn the grand scale of things, I'll take a little damage you can literally white-wash over to denying people's rights any day. Ends justify the means.... Got it. So who draws the line at how much damage is acceptable? Do the liberals get to inflict more damage than the conservatives? Are you going to come up with a formula that says "so much injustice allows for so much damage to a persons property?" How far down this road to you want to go?
