It seems the Illinois State Police are now searching for the vandals who spray painted the outside of their Collinsville headquarters. I'm glad to learn they want to find these guys, but I wish they would put more effort into finding the spray painters who use highway walls and overpasses etc, as their easel as well.
There are all kinds of places on the Illinois side of the river along interstates which have been spray painted. Highway walls, box cars, railroad walls and on and on. How these things can be done without anyone noticing is beyond me. It is also beyond me how they are physically able to do many of these things up high and in narrow places. Yesterday when we drove over to St. Louis we noticed along a stretch of road in East St. Louis more graffiti and this was on a stone wall only 4 feet or so from the interstate roadway. The wall was fairly high. How could this have been done without not one car or state trouper noticing.
It had to have been also very dangerous. So, good on the Illinois State Police for wanting to catch their own vandals, but how about stopping more of the rest.
