Macaulay mural defaced.

From The Olympian:

A Rhode Island highway mural created by a renowned children's author and illustrator as part of a program to reduce vandalism has been defaced by graffiti.

The mural along Interstate 95 in Providence was designed by David Macaulay and was completed in June. It's one of two highway murals designed by Macaulay, who attended the Rhode Island School of Design.

You know, I believe very strongly that graffiti is an art form. It can provide commentary on politics and culture and it can be clever and thought-provoking; people use it as a way to reclaim space or memorialize people and events.

But this? Is is exactly the sort of thing that gives it a bad name.

In other words, BOOOOOOOOOOO.
