Perpetrators wrote several tasteless words and phrases along with poorly drawn male and female genitalia.  \u201cIt was pretty disgusting,\u201d said resident Jane Haugen.  \u201cI mean, they weren\u2019t even close to getting it right.  If you\u2019re going to do graffiti, understand there is some art involved.  This looked like some high school sophomores who had never taken an art class just grabbed some spray paint, closed their eyes, and painted.  I find their efforts here pretty repulsive.\u201d\n<!--more-->\nOther residents agree.  \u201cListen, you aren\u2019t in Aurora anymore,\u201d resident Brian Asbee reminded the anonymous starving artists.  \u201cIf you\u2019re going to come at Stapleton with your graffiti, it better be the best.  I don\u2019t care if it\u2019s semi-pornographic graffiti, just make it good.  The garbage they displayed on the Greenway is reprehensible.  If we\u2019re going to have graffiti in Stapleton, it better be done by <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Banksy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Banksy<\/a>.\u201d\nThe MCA and Forest City are already hard at work to clean up the waste of good spray paint.  \u201cIf we see poor graffiti, it has got to go immediately,\u201d said MCA President Liza Kampstra.  \u201cIf you leave crappy graffiti around, it sends the message that Stapleton is okay with crappy graffiti.  I don\u2019t think residents have been this upset since those kids were drawing all that \u2018art\u2019 with <a href=\"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/posts\/%E2%80%9Cchalk%E2%80%9D-of-the-town-sidewalk-graffiti-debate-dominates-airwaves\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">chalk<\/a>.\u201d\nResidents are asked to be vigilant if they see people defacing sidewalks or structures in open space.  \u201cPeople need to make sure they are keeping their eyes open when they are out and about on the open space,\u201d said Kampsta.  \u201cIf they see someone attempting to deface Stapleton property, make sure they are doing it with effort, and are creating something special.  We just can\u2019t have people half-ass spraying paint all over the place.\u201d\n]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[133],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-4435","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-issue-72","7":"entry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4435","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4435"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4435\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4435"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4435"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4435"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
