Graffiti in Butler?

ALL OF THESE PHOTOS WAS TAKEN BY BATES COUNTY LIVE AND THEY ARE ALL IN THE CITY LIMITS OF BUTLER 

When you think about Graffiti you normally think about Big Cities and gangs. However there is Grafitti right here in your back yard. Maybe on a Bridge or a old building or on a pinic table at the park but most of the Grafitti around here is done by 12-15 year old kids who have nothing better to do then to spray paint a bridge or carve something into a park bench. I'm sure some people will not think that it's that big of a deal but What they need to understand is people don't wanna see that around here it becomes a eye sore for most around here. If you are a artist and you want your work to be seen do your "Art Work" on paper. We can all just hope that this don't become a major problem or a costly one for the TAX PAYERS
