Tags are not street art, and in the context SIPS is certainly a vandal and utterly tactless. That's not what Gothamist has to say in this post. In any context, damaging or defacing property that does not belong to you is vandalism, plain and simple.

"Graffiti vandal?" What happened to Gothamist's favorite euphemism "street artist?"

If SIPS used a fire extinguisher to paint his tag, Gothamist would be running that story as an ambiguous thought piece. "Hmmm, on the one hand, he painted over a 9/11 memorial, but on the other hand, his technique is so innovative! And he did have that corner before the memorial went up. What say you, readers?"

Ehhh. I use plastic grocery bags as garbage bags. If I didn't have them, I'll end up buying garbage bags. Same amount of waste. =/
