I think you got to be pretty simple to see any art or beauty in graffiti.

Paint a black square over it so other taggers don't see it and think its ok to do it.

Take a wire brush and some rubbing alcohol and rub it off. It will take a little work. If you don't some other wacko
will came and tag over it. I have had to clean trees off myself.

Real artists paint on canvases that they actually own

At least your truck is not up on "blocks" and didn't get trashed, set up a couple of "game" camera's to catch the fools and hand it over to your wildlife game wardens, they have more passion about public lands than local PD. Plus if they do trash some ones ride or camp you have a better chance to bust'm. Be safe and happy hunting! Doug

Rather than painting or rubbing it off the tree , id just smear some mud over it! itll eventually go away! maybe the wacoenviromentalist will get the point! probly some jerk from the CFG trying to "bait" you into harming/defaceing the tree!

I must be missing something here. It's a tree with squiggly grafitti. What's up? Seems to me we are getting slim on metal detecting subjects.

NOIS may be Catalan( for boys or buddies?) and there is a nois graffiti.
No, tagging trees, natural objects and property is defacing. With permission on walls ect. I have no problem with it.

No, tagging trees and natural objects is not nice.

don't know, but do care, want no part of the beastie boys, when i was in Sonoma County lived on a dead end street, i had no probs, but a really nice neighbor living on the corner lot, bet he got tagged, least once a month, spend a day repainting the fence, just sad, hey enjoy the picture show :-)
