Salisbury City Police Are On The Ball

These four Officers in Uniform were on foot patrol throughtout the City yesterday. Determined to catch these thugs, Officers were just waiting for the right moment in time when these graffiti artists would make that fatal mistake and get caught. Thank You!

They're Back!

Just when things started slowing down, they came back again in a big way. The Southern States Dealer by the Draw Bridge next to Rt. 50 was nailed with large slak tags again. There were so many new pieces of graffiti, Blogger wouldn't allow me to post all of them in one post, so I chose what I thought might impact everyone most. No Division seems to be back in a very big way but what makes him so interesting is, the City Police arrested him long ago and he cleaned up everything he had done in the past.

That being said, why on God's Green Earth would he come out of retirement and start slamming the City again with his version of Graffiti? So there may be a copycat graffiti artist out there? Nevertheless, these guys are going "POSTAL."

No Division is using labels from the USPS, (United States Postal Service) and SLAK is marking up Mail Boxes. Are we talking Federal Offense now?

Let's Talk About Vacant Buildings

It's my understanding this building has been sitting empty for more than 3 years on the Plaza. I can see no real advertising to rent it? I see no For Sale sign on it? That being said, how is the Plaza supposed to bounce back if much of what is there is just sitting stagnant? I heard the owner of this building paid $310,000.00 and now wants $750,000.00 for the property, (down from $850,000.00). Pretty nice mark up and look how fast it's selling! What does the City Code say about these buildings just sitting around the City doing nothing? Should they come down like the old mall? Should we have a say in what happens to other people's investments?

I Dare You To Start Blaming Me Barrie!

Notice how you really can't tell the difference between the two photos above? The difference between the two pictures actually is, one was taken more than 3 months ago, it was posted on my Blog and although I asked when Barrie was going to have it cleaned up, obviously nothing has been done about it.

The City of Salisbury serves the property owners a notice to have "all" graffiti removed as quickly as possible yet they sit on their bums ignoring their own property and this would include many railroad overpasses and other areas of graffiti the City refuses to remove.

Fortunately I have documented most of the City and can go back to pictures taken a year ago and show that they never removed it, even though it was on Justice For All's Site as well as mine. Do as I say, not as I do.

So Barrie, don't go blaming the Blogs for all this nasty graffiti exposure because you've ignored it for at least a year now and if there's any blame for someone not taking care of it by getting rid of it, that blame is on you.

Red Net Alert!

Terry Cohen & Linda Kent will be on the Bill Reddish Show at 7:40 a.m. Monday morning. Bill, I want to know if "BOTH" of them are wearing hats when they arrive? Ladies & Gentlemen, all I can tell you is, Monday will be a huge day for the City of Salisbury.

Station 7 In Pittsville Was Slammin Last Night

Even good old Peter Richardson was out pounding a bit of grub last night testing the waters in Station 7. The "Red Nights" Fire Department Biker Group filled the upstairs enjoying the food and atmosphere. If you haven't been yet, they're closed on Sunday's and everyone agrees, GET THE STEAKS!

Pete, "You've Been Blogged!"

Channel 47 News Building Gets Tagged

You may have caught in on the 11:00 Channel 47 News last night where their own building became a victim of Taggers/Graffiti as well? These criminals kicked open a gate in an alley way beside their building and painted the above graffiti on the walls. There was also a broken pipe where you could see someone was trying to shimmy up the wall to get up to the roof.

It Looks Like No Division Is Back!

Plastered mainly in the Downtown Plaza area were the signs of the old "No Division" tagger. Most of his work was done at the Old Mall but now that it has been blocked off it looks like they're concentrating on the Plaza area now.

This wanna be tagger uses shipping labels that he sticks to the back of signs and so forth where most people can't see them anyway, LOL, Idiot! More than likely the other Taggers are laughing their a**es off at this guy because he's so afraid of getting caught.

Well, IMO, he should be afraid because since the Police have stepped it up several notches Downtown, none of this is going to continue much longer. Game Over!

Allow Me To Clarify A Couple Of Things Here

The name "TREE" stands for pot, weed, or marijuana. The Name "SLACK" stands for cocaine. These are NOT names of people, gangs or other wise.

Before & After

Looks like the Graffiti Artists are OUT OF BUSINESS from here on out!

The Salisbury Skate Park

Notice the middle picture shows this skater "waxing" the wall where they jump up and slide along the wall. On weekends and most evenings you'll see these skaters all over Downtown. I'd say, rather than a "Bike Route" through Salisbury, perhaps a Skate Park is in order? We need to keep these kids busy enjoying a Skate Park and perhaps not using their art talent on walls of buildings?

Oh, I'm sure someone is going to slam me for calling this young man a skater rather than a roller blader but that's what they call them these days.

Big Brother Has Stepped Downtown Up A Notch.

Smile, You're now on candid camera!

The Salisbury Police Department Are All Over The Place This Weekend

Officers were just steps behind the graffiti artists this weekend as they stepped up patrols in the hopes of nailing these guys. It's only a matter of time.
