Don't get me wrong, I appreciate a good grafiti artist. But I think there's a special place down below for taggers. Call me evil but I can't wait to hear the news story about the gang banger who fell to his death while tagging a billboard or a highway sign. And while the local gang task force police like to make it sound like Salt Lake is turning into East L.A. (I think they are just trying to make themselves feel tough by talking about how hard their jobs are), the gangs in this town kinda make me laugh. They try really hard to be cool and tough. But listening to gangsta rap doth not a gangsta make ya.
So for the life of me I can't figure out why it's so important to tag an obscure column in front of the stock brokerage. Maybe Junior was feeling pretty cool with his big, green Sharpie, and wanted to mark his territory. Or maybe he thinks that stock brokers are 'the man', and Junior is just trying to get back at 'the man' for keeping him down. Do you think the mini magic marker tagging got Junior made? Maybe he's now the Don of Rose Park.
