Unfortunately, most taggers don't see anything wrong with what they're doing. They view what they do as "art" and anyone who interferes with or arrests them for "creating their art" is oppressing them. This is straight from the mouths of many taggers I've talked to.

On top of that nonsense, most felony cases that are brought against taggers get stalled out by lawyers and then the judge reduces the sentences to a mere slap on the wrist.
