Check out the latest Juxtapoz for some excellent graffiti and street artist interviews, especially the one on Eine. I say if it's good, and folks don't mind it, keep it. If it's crap, why bother writing? Still, this is a touchy, subjective issue. very nice work here btw!
I'm pretty torn on the subject. I don't want somebody painting my personal property but I can appreciate the art and the motivation behind it. I am also fascinated by reverse graffiti and the stuff done by "The Graffiti Research lab"
I think good graffiti has a place in our cities...the problem is, who gets to decide whether something is an eyesore or not and needs to be removed. Those turf signatures can be a bit ugly...just go to suburban Rome and have a look, I didn't see any graffiti worth keeping on a recent trip there.

I think it has a place in society, some I love like Banksy, Dface. The kind I like less is the tagging style.
