Attack of the Graffitti All-Stars x 2

Let justice roll like water and Righteousness like a mighty stream....

Alas, rain does not usually wash away graffitti. Nor does it provide bus benches.

RantWoman is very sorry to hear of the graffitti shown here which was  recently, on MLK day specifically,  deposited at StMark's Episcopal Cathedral.

RantWoman is grateful for the links here, local press and a statement from the Dean of the Cathedral.

St Marks Cathedral vandalized on MLK day

RantWoman further notes:

--Whoever did this has no business complaining about #antifa graffitti

--This "artwork" cries out to be splattered on T-Shirts. Consider options:

   --Another St Marksist for Peace Love and Tolerance

  --"Who would Jesus Spray Paint?"

  --"St Marksists Let's get woke!"

Probably RantWoman should STOP and go back to figuring out where she is going to wear the Black Lives Matter t-shirt she bought at Seattle's MLK celebration.

And in other graffitti news on the mean streets

--Is "Fell in Love" nicer graffitti than "Marxist Idiots Wake Up?" Is there such a thing as graffitti envy?

--RantWoman has been told there is graffitti on Meeting property. RantWoman is certain the world is entitled to a whole post about "activating space" as a way to limit vandalism. Stay Tuned.

--The second picture is the bus shelter nearest RantWoman's Meeting. It used to have a bench. Recently the bench was removed "due to chronic non-transit use." There is a trial period of six months. RantWoman appreciates the #accessibility complaint in Twitter comments. People who have trouble standing can much more easily ride the bus instead of paratransit if there are benches to sit on while waiting for the bus.

There. Wishing everyone joy, peace, community, and a lot less graffitti.

In Light and faithfulness.
