MTA Roller Buffed on the LA River

Not only did the large Saber roller on the LA river suffer from the rath of the graffiti buff in LA but so was the massive MTA roller. That’s how the California tax dollars are being put to use.

    All MTA has to do is go back and outline it again.
    It’s already filled in. I still don’t understand why they would spend all this money on somthing that has been ther for years. It didn’t hurt nobody then and it didn’t the day before it got buffed.! But let’s spend millions of dollars just so we can have an ugly ass Bloch of white on the river right? Wen we could use that money to get the crack heads murders child molestors and other illeagl activites off the street, but we bassicly paid the state to buff both the saber and MTA rollers. And they still don’t understand that graffiti just won’t stop, we will always be crushing the cities!! MTA and saber will be back to that river and trust me wen they r back they r gonna cone out with somthing bigger better and longer! Fuck the system!!

    Its really sad that they buffed these rollers. Sabre’s L.A river piece will alwayys be one of my fondest memories of l.a. its a good thing that I took pictures of it and got to see its massive scale in person last time i was in town. This piece is already historical. Thank you saber. ONE
