We're still debating whether this will inspire the next generation of stencil artists or new young bucks into law enforcement. We do know that street art graffiti will never quietly go away regardless of whether local governments declare war against all artists other than Banksy (which we have no issue with its not Banksy fault) this is a lifestyle...
