I wish people would STOP calling graffiti taggers "artists"!! THEY ARE NOT DOING ART!!

Saturday, I bore witness to a shocking level of tagging that had occurred on some M-2s that were laid up in East Bridgeport Yard, 2 large burners on the sides of a pair that was seen being brought into Stamford Yard to be cleaned. I did not look at it as art, I thought it was despicable!! There was nothing artistic about indecipherable crap being scrawled on the sides of passenger trains!!

If it is to be regarded as art, do a mural for the community, get a canvas and submit it to a gallery, do something constructive. Get proper recognition in an art book, art magazine or a world renowned museum, not deface private, city or state property!!
