      Its just a continuation of the mission. Its always been a mission, graffiti is the perfect preparation for military. If i needed a group of covert operatives to infiltrate and evade an area undetected, I'd find some real graffiti artists. They are literally pros at undecover stealth missions.

    The 'writing' that New York writers were doing and constantly practicing did not have the ego that went with taking it to a public forum with competitive peers, the 'Mike was here' phenomenon was that and just it. I saw that kind of stuff along with 'Mario loves Blanca' and that's the extent of it. There's just nothing to make of it. What New York city kids were doing was/is on a whole different universe.

      I fucking hate cnn. You have no idea what news sources i follow. I only read international news,and none of it is american. you seem Convinced you known all anout me and my views On the world,as well as how they are formed. Saying most yanks call brown people racial slurs is a form of reverse discrimination. Regardless of whether or not i Made a typo.we are commenting on youtube,not typing research papers.
      You should consider dropping your pre conceived notions as to what americans are. It's a huge country, it's very diverse. There a lot of shit heads here I can't fucking stand. There's also a lot or normal level headed people here as well. This also isn't the only country I've lived in either. You have no idea what kind of person I am,what my life has been like or for that matter my ability to critically look at a news sources. A topic I have been educated on, for the record. But I guess being an american makes me ignorant by default, right?
      You can't fight ignorance with ignorance. Doesn't work like that.
