No one is thinking one-dimensional…….people are just stating their anger and sadness…..peeps are actully mournful that Saber’s 12yr run on this paticular piece has come to a end. It will forever live onthe internet and in the Guninnes Book of world records andof course in our minds and hearts. The graf piece was of a symbol of thinking outside the box…then just a wall w/ some pretty colored paint. L.A has pieces all over the place in ( and on )the types of places mosesone named & more. The main concern here are these “hare-brained bureaucrats” as dsuker beautifully put it.. that are more like morons then a public service leaders… when it comes to implementing funds & resources into our city to supposedly make it better and “heathier for living”, not to mention the lack of common sence when it comes to graf clean up & the buffing of walls or anything for that matter, that doesn’t seem to bother anyone but the morons that call the shots FOR a city… IN a city… far far AWAY from the one in which they DON’T LIVE!
Our schools need help or libraries need help…even our freakin roads need help BUT our walls do not need help. Why is it ok to do the same piece on a public school gym wall but not ok on a river wall where the only place you can actully get a clear visual is from the freeway or a freakin satalite! The buffing is not going to “box” the thinking of our artists, they will continue the thrive and create on any surface, in anyplace and continue to out do the next.

Yo, cats gotta stop thinking one-dimensional and shit….

none of the graf on the trains in nyc is still around. and once the trains were being buffed on the regular, niggas started hitting the streets more and more, overpasses, storegates, highways….move on, because when you take away one thing you create something new.
