Art has always been an extremely important part of society, whether on a canvas or a wall. It's a excellent way to express your point of view freely without passing through any "system". Your narrow-minded way of thinking clearly shows that you are chained to those systems and that because someone tells you (e.g. your authority) graffiti is bad, you don't ask yourself any questions as to why? If you paint on a concrete wall, you might be changing the appearance of the wall but you're not destroying it. And anyway, the wall destroyed something else in the first place (e.g. nature, another wall). Hope you get to think a bit more about what "property" and "destruction" means.

Whether it's written in moss or in paint, graffiti is still only a self-important message from someone marking territory that isn't theirs alone.

I wish we had this in my area, though I think the temps here would kill the moss pretty quick. Very cool.

There are taggers who aren't interested in beautifying the landscape, but many are artists. Like Lindley mentions, Banksy is an excellent example of a graffiti artist who adds value rather than detracting from the landscape. I agree.
