Spray cans to be removed from public display

GRAFFITI

Perhaps this subject has been covered by someone else. It is important.

The commonest type of graffiti are performed by persons using spray cans.

One assumes that these persons have not paid for their spray cans, but have stolen them. Such is the nature of graffiti writers, one would assume.

My submission is that legislation be introduced making it compulsory for sellers of spray cans to remove the cans from public display, and require persons who want to buy them to provide identification particulars which are recorded for future reference.

I acknowledge that there are many other ways to create graffiti, but this would inhibit a major and common means.
