interesting way to retaliate

I guess by painting over billboards, now matter how illegal they are, is an act of vandalism or another form of illegal advertising. Nice vid, however :)

Yes, 2 wrongs don't make it right??

the only difference is that NPA pays rent to the landlords and they own the premises.. what will you guys do when NPA forces their landlords to sue.

It's a fine line... They got arrested because NPA Outdoors called the cops on them. What the white washers/artists did is no more or less illegal than what NPA Outdoors does. No landlords fought the case in court, so 2 arrests were completely let off the hook and the other 2 were acquitted.

False. "cool ads" < actual art. Next.
