Detroit Graffiti















On flickr.com, there are alot of interesting photos of graffiti that has an important message, some are fun to look at, but others are utterly rediculous. I happen to be a big opposer of graffiti, and I happen to find some photos that support my argument. I was surprised I didn't see any gang signs or R.I.P signs. The funny thing is that I've seen the 8mile sign in person and it still does not make sense to me. What is the real point with these photos? What about the direction sign. Is that suppose to scare anybody that takes that path? I really don't understand. One of the pieces of graffiti that like was the "don't cry for us, cry for them photo" I think that's an interesting viewpoint that alot of people might agree with. Other than that, it was just pointless. my favorite is the throw away your two-faced smile piece of graffiti. I think that sends an important message, and it's a quote that many people can use. I can't wait to browse through some more graffiti photos so see more of what I'm accustomed to.
