graffiti

Hate groups are on the rise in Montana, and recently they have been targeting Bozeman.

Got a picture of interesting train graffiti art you've spotted in Montana? We'd love to see them.

Can you read this graffiti? I don't have a clue. Could be gang stuff? Could be the main ingredient in great BBQ sauce. None of the dozen people I showed this to knew what it said.

Check out what someone painted on the parking garage across the street from us. We didn't do it, I swear.

Bozeman seems to be revamping every available square inch within the downtown area. New hotels, restored homes and offices along with plans for more are in the works. Which begs the question:

Bozeman is my home and it's important to me that I feel safe. Bob Marley stenciled graffiti does not make me uneasy. Poorly scribbled pseudo gang symbols made by Bozeman kids with nothing better to do DOES make me uneasy.

The Bozeman Police Department released a statement today stating that 18 year old Van Prebilsky had been cited for several graffiti tags around town. Full Press Release here:

As if my out of state friends needed another reason to send me snarky emails about "what the hell" is going on in Montana. -Michelle
