It seems that tagger krews around Anaheim have taken to tagging on sidewalks, notably, the sidewalk on Gilbert St, right in front of Magnolia Highschool’s soccer field.
It’sa rather smart move, on their part. How many people walk with their faces to the ground? Companies trying to advertise could probably learn from that.
Well, earlier in the year, the tagging got so bad, that the city or something finally decided to sandblast the pavement. It was great for a while, the sidewalk had white bloches, instead of purple and yellow squiggles or what have you.
The tagging soon returned, not much, but it looks like the taggers have no hope. Yesterday the sidewalk felt sandy and was clean once again.
I think it would be much better if a dirt road were put instead of concrete, but tagger will tag anywhere…even a chain link fence.
If you are ever in the area, there is a way to identify the several krews around here.MTK and COT are the most established, while La Colonia, I think, is a gang…they do tag all over the place, though. Since they are the big three, MTK, COT and Colonia are usually fighting each other on walls or sidewalks or trucks by crossing each other out.
COT tends to stick on the side of the street facing Magnolia field, the others are around that area, or the La Colonia area.
I’ll post various tagging sites later.
Did you know that Anaheim has a huge budget to get ride of graffitti. They remove graffitti 7 days a week and prosecute pretty harshly. Just something to add.
