Perhaps a logical response to the Reddit photo we shared last night:
k_hack: http://twitpic.com/9p190 – Only on Capitol Hill… I love this neighborhood! Anti-gentrification graffiti with a twist
The colorful message can be found in the lot east of the Capitol Hill light rail station construction area on 10th Ave.
Meanwhile, the Slog’s Dominic Holden weighs in:
Graffiti only makes people want to kick your juvenile, gay asses out of the neighborhood more.
Look at that horrid paint job!
funny how things go full circle. fifty years ago people who lived in white neighborhoods put graffiti up that made new community members (often african americans) feel unwelcome. now african americans are against civil rights (gay marriage), and capitol hill is covered in graffiti that demonizes “the other”, which in this case, is apparently straight people. brilliant!
