No because graffiti almost always looks like shit and it’s illegal. I’ve been to Brazil, where graffiti is everywhere and Jesus Christ is it ugly. Graffiti always ruins beautiful streets in cities. The only places where I don’t mind graffiti are favelas, they actually look pretty good, and the housing there is illegal anyways
@@Chadius_Thundercock This isn't a topic of whether it looks good or not, graffiti is a matter of expression. It's illegal in most places because the spray is difficult to get off. I think there should be areas in which graffiti is legalized so people can express themselves in a way that isn't breaking any laws
@@angel79nunn I think you misunderstood what I said... That's the exact reason I think it should be legal in some places. so you /aren't/ breaking the law and you /aren't/ painting on someone else's property. If there are areas designated for graffiti, no one is breaking any laws, and no one's property is to be damaged. Some people just don't have the ability to paint at home. I'd assume you would mean that you'd just do it in the backyard, but what if you don't have a backyard? Or the neighbors don't like the smell? There's just a lot of problems that could occur from spray painting at home, and you also said 'or something'. Areas where graffiti is legal would be that 'something' because it's not on someone's property. In my comment I was not saying that you should be able to tag or spray paint everywhere and get away with it because of 'expression', I was instead just telling someone how the looks of art doesn't matter given what they mean, regardless of where it is. At home, or wherever you can paint without consequences. Please, do not do graffiti where it is not okay.
Same! Random people spraying graffiti on my house walls is annoying but graffiti can look good sometimes so a dedicated area gor graffiti would be pretty awesome.
I’m my town we have “bubblegum alley” to stop people from sticking gum in walls and tables, it doesn’t work as well as this but it definitely stops it a bit Edit: ok to clear things up, I don’t want to give my location away cause I don’t feel comfortable doing that, but I do not live in Seattle
I think that allowing graffiti on certain buildings is a great idea. However when someone does a huge mural or gets protective over their work it could cause more tension. So maybe if they set it up where you are expected to basically collaborate on a huge ever changing piece of art instead of just a wall to put your individual art on.
That would never work. Graffiti has rules, if you’re not gonna make something better then don’t go over what’s already on the wall, if you do - you’re a «toy». It goes something like this: Tag-Throwup-Peice-Mural I don’t exactly remember if there is something between there because I haven’t done graffiti in 5 years, but you get the point. Having a couple of really talented artists bunched up with a load of kids that don’t know what they are doing is not going to make a good mural, and murals are planned out and a lot of work is put into them by proffessionals. You’re living in fairytale land if you think this could be pulled off.
Yeah where I live in the US there’s a few places where the business owner allows anyone to spray paint a wall outside. For a while some guy kept ruining the paintings by covering them with solid black or wieners.
This type of thing happened in our local pub basically everyone was literally throwing bottles everywhere, so they made a wall that was specifically there to be thrown bottles at, and surprisingly it worked.
Other city’s HAVE “tried this method”. Melbourne Australia has several of these legal spray painting locations and I’m sure there are many other cities that do too.
Here buisnesses just pay the graffiti artists to paint the sides of their buildings every so often. Was a shame when the realtors painted over the beautiful mural that looked like a famous Roman painting in a museum.

Graffiti is the plural form of the Italian word ‘graffito’, meaning little scratch. It goes back to ancient times, when vandals would carve words or drawings into walls or onto furniture. It was only after the advent of the spray can that graffiti took of a broader meaning, referring to any kind of vandalism by scribing or coloring a mark upon a structure. Those shitheads that scratch words onto gas station pump with their keys are keeping an ancient tradition of lowlives scratching their mark onto a public structure. It’s the original graffiti.

Yeah I see adding to things like factories as adding to the historical “we were here” of it, but I see old architecture as covering up someone else’s art.
Legalize it to keep em under control. Here's question. Could you name any other "crime" that can be controlled by "legalizing" it? Many crimes are just behaviors deemed destructive to society by a few people making all the decisions. Not talking about clear true acts of crime ofc lmao

They made this
Method in our town but instead of it being graffiti it was one big chalk alley for people to draw on. Now people can’t do much graffiti in that historic alley way that had super old and even dead graffiti artist in it. It’s sad to see it.
In here at Thai land I think there is also on near my local golf course and some days they even have graffiti competition (btw I don’t know how they compete so don’t ask me)
Didn’t we cancel Ellen? Why is she making TH-cam shorts? I’m very confused guys
Graffiti isn't illegal but painting on other's property is
I think grafiti ia not illegal in first place
drawing grafiti on a surface of property you don't own or you don't have permission to is illegal
It doesn't matter if you're an art prodigy and draw a realism paintings on a public facility which you don't have permission to draw on it, it's illegal
Legalize something and people wont get the adrenaline rush of breaking the law. Makes something just another thing. I'm in.
How about they put these punks in jail for vandalism? Oh wait, you’re not allowed to do that nowadays, it might hurt their feelings.
We actually did this in Canada with drugs- a lot of people were excited that it was legalized but then they just kind of stopped 🤣 not really so that way they could do it in an alleyway but we legalized it then bam people stop doing it as much
You might get a reduction too if you quit playing around and calling it art. Call it what it is, vandalism, property damage, an eyesore.
i have a graffiti alley in my city, not sure if it’s legal but i’ve never seen anyone get in trouble for painting there, and there’s not much graffiti in the rest of the city except a few tags downtown and some cool ones on river bridges
The weirdest thing is that I live there but I didn't know that because-
🌌lazy🌌
same with parents not allowing to for example
eat candy. once the kid can buy candy themselves they'll eat as much as they can
They should have power lines, so people can throw their shoes around the line. This way they don't do it around town. They could have their own special place where they can throw a pair of shoes to the power line
They need a whole neighborhood for this in Philadelphia. It’s everywhere you go!
Thanks for the info Ellen..
The people rest of the people in my beloved latin america: haha, that won't stop me because I can't read
Maybe they should just have greater punishments for doing grafitti
I doubt that would work here in the states. A lot of the time the whole point of graffiti is to disrespect the thing getting tagged.
That's nice and all but the only thing illegal here is your microphone breathing.
Now we legalize drugs and crime disappears
in belgium only the trains are interesting to paint
They do a similar thing in Vancouver Canada and it leads to amazing art and a very clean city.
That looks so cool! Talented people! :D
This guys makes nice videos. He also looks like Ellen Degeneres.
The graffiti is actually why Berlin is one of my fav cities
You look like elen DeGeneres
Ok bois r/place is now in real life
But now theres no room left to paint there so out doing illegaly again
But the thing is that graffiti is very bad for the ozone hole
he looks like ellen degeneres as a boy
I thought you were Ellen DeGeneres in the thumbnail
Am I the only one that finds the art really cool??-
Modesto, California be like : hey.
