Good for Nothin’

Graffiti isn’t the problem, it is the symptom. I saw the first deposit of this on Saturday, and by Sunday afternoon, the second deposit had been made.

I’m now special friends with graffiti abatement (626-744-7622) but I guess they don’t work on weekends. Well, that’s what the Pasadena police said yesterday when I called their non-emergency number. (Non emergency calls for police response: 626-744-4241)

How many kids get to walk by this on their way to school this morning? And if we’re really serious about the gang issue, why can’t this be removed over the weekend?

You may be settling back in your chair right now, thinking that you don’t live in  Northwest Pasadena, so this isn’t your issue. But look what I saw the other day on the restaurant-formerly-known-as-Monty’s:

Graffiti on Monty’s

Notice anything?

  1. (bottom pic) Is this the phone number to call to give a critique on the gang graffiti?

    (top pic) The crown graphic shows some promise but the rest of it is so unimaginative. Bo-ring. YAWN.

    Its time taggers realized that the competition is steep around here.

  2. Jail them all. They are home grown terrorists, the tagging is meant both to intimidate and to mark off territory that is stolen as I doubt the scribes have to title to any of it. This is one situation where my Law and order side overwhelms my civil libertarian side. If you want to mark up the walls start at the home of your parents.

  3. This is so stupid. Why do they paint their tags in sanscript?

    Retards. There’s always graffiti on the market and the curb of the street by my house that says “AOD”. Some Armenian gang. Put down the spray cans and go back to selling stolen cell phones.

  4. Oh and in the top photo I can see “PLK”. Pasadena Latin Kings. Yes, apparently gangs are running out of inventive names and instead pretending like they’re in West Side Story.

    Can’t wait for their gang war with the Jets and the Greasers.

  5. Ah, thank you for the picture, I moved away from that neighborhood along time ago and it’s nice to see that things are still runing like before.

  7. I hope Mr. Kanser is NOT a product of the PUSD. I am all for artistic expression, but touch my property with a drop of paint and see what happens.
