"Share this space and respect...others" -- slapped directly on top of another poster. Interesting.

If you want to tear every poster off of every pole in the city, go ahead.

Not a good place to advertise your lost cat or war protest.

Posters are old meme, a pretty outdated and easily silenced mode of reaching the general public. Tear down a poster and the advertising is gone.

Poster wars are like bickering over who gets to use the abacus to balance their checkbook.

BTW, I saw these posters the other day and there's a date on the bottom stating 6/8. None of them I saw had covered up another poster that wasn't already outdated. Obviously they made efforts to respect the dates of other posters that were covered up and hope that others (e.g., Poster Giant) would do the same. However, I have a good source that told me they saw Poster Giant walking around Capitol Hill yesterday specifically tearing these down.

Just put art up and cover anything else. I blame music fads for all the trouble. People put to much stock in music anyway.

stoopid musicians!
