Wow. All of you idiots know nothing about graffiti. What Dro and ACC did is not "tagging". It's called graffiti, show some damn respect for their skills. I can't believe they posted a pic of a quick-filled throwie. It was probably the only thing that stupid-ass cameraman could read LOL!

All You See

I hope they throw the book at the entire crew. Tagging is not art, its destruction to other peoples property.

Newsday reports that Mendez was actually arrested by the police last June, when he was trying to break into a store. Because, when you're a prolific tagger, there's nothing like tempting fate - and the law. This is a surprise? Taggers aren't geniuses. Look at the idiot kid who got himself run over by a train, comments about him being a "computer wiz" (probably coming from friends and relatives who can barely operate a mouse) notwithstanding. They tag because they have no other way to make an impression on the world. None of their skills are marketable, especially their paltry "art" skills.

"The ACC has been around since the early 1990s" And how old are these geezers to be still doing this? It's really sad when you're in your mid 40's and living in a homeless shelter to be still "tagging."

that photo above is of vandalism. pure and simple. calling it "street art" is putting too nice of a sheen on it.
