Call me radical, I think we should legalize both all drugs and all graffiti. To be honest, I don't think this should be a big deal. We should teach the cycles that civilizations have gone through, we should teach all we know about former civilizations, but I don't think we should treat their old stones as sacred. I think we should build new, ontop of the old. You can't build something new without destroying the old, sometimes.

Should we stop sweeping streets or picking up trash too? Might as well shut down the sewer system, who needs it.

  Now who's being radical? I was proposing to legalize something that only hurts the person doing the drug, or in the case of graffiti hurts no one if only people could look beyond the cover of things. The drug debate is for a different forum but the graffiti argument is that people are judging things based on the cover. Anyone who goes into the German subway system and thinks "this is a terrible train and I might die if I ride in it" because someone sprayed some paint on the cart, or the walls, does not have their priorities right in my opinion. Same goes for any building. It's a matter of tolerance and priorities. Can we learn to tolerate some color on gray walls, and can we prioritize important things in society over children playing with paint?

Sure. Looking forward to putting some Nazi symbols on Jewish graves for the fun of it and spaying "Osama was here" at Ground Zero. Nothing is sacred, right? Could torch the museum, no point in spending money on old junk, especially if it might actually teach something to the visitors.

Do you want to legalize damage to all property or just property older than some number of years? How does a thousand sound? That way your new bong and Xbox should be covered.

  What damage is graffiti doing? It seems to me, that most of the time graffiti is mostly damaging peoples minds. Because people perceive something as dirty when it has paint on it. I have neither of those things.
