Graffiti debates

Graffiti debates

Is Graffiti art or messy  Vandalism?  Graffiti is both art and messy and I am going to tell you why it's both. Think about graffiti as art or messy Vandalism in my opinion I would say both,  and here are some of my reasons why.

Graffiti is against the law, Graffiti is ugly and bad, and people should not encourage it because children will look at it and start drawing all over walls and get into trouble. When you don't have permission to vandalize someone's property then you should NOT touch it and if you do you should rethink your actions because no matter how pretty it is, it's a crime.

It also depends on where it is and what it is Graffiti itself is a form of art, and can be beautiful to look at when in the city. However, graffiti on trains, train stations, buildings, and old architecture is a complete pain for whoever has to pay to remove it, and can be a sign of a lower income part of town.

Think of what the towns and cities would be like if there is no graffiti or street art, cities and public areas would be boring without the bright colours and imagination spread across the walls that we call graffiti. I understand that some graffiti works are rubbish, I mean the ones that are just scribbles and swear words and somebody's name written on walls without meaning or purpose, THAT IS VANDALISM.

To conclude  my statement Graffiti isn't bad if it isn't ruining anyone's property, it's a form of art where people can express their feelings and opinions without having anyone know who did it. All the colours and designs sometimes mean something too. If you think about it, graffiti is like a hidden message done by someone who wants to be heard in the world, but doesn't have the courage so they express it in art.

What I found hard was trying to hook the reader in to make them think.
What I found easy was drawing my graffiti art.
