Graffiti

Graffiti is a serious problem in modern cities. Most people think
that it is a crime because young people leave their ‘mark’ on public and
private buildings. Because of graffiti many of our city center’s look dirty and
dangerous. People are afraid to use the subway. To stop the social ‘disease’,
many towns have organised graffiti walls — special places where graffiti
artists can practice their art legally

Graffiti walls bring teenagers together and help them to be
creative. They show street artists how to use their art and express themselves
in a good way. But the greatest advantage is that they help stay graffiti on
buildings. Graffiti artists can display their talents legal. As a result,
cities with graffiti walls have less vandalism. On other hand, there are people
who think that graffiti walls do nothing’ to solve the problem. They argue that
graffiti walls can make problem worse, because they make the crime seem OK.

So there are both advantages and disadvantages to organise
graffiti walls. Most people think that advantages are much great. They are an
excellent way to help with the problem of the graffiti in many of our cities.
