102 Old Man Fined By Oakland For Not Cleaning Up Graffiti Left On His Fence….

Instead of pursuing the perps behind the vandalism, progs instead target tax paying citizens. Progressivism is a mental disease.
102-year-old Oakland man ordered to clean up graffiti on fence or pay thousands:
Wheelchair user, Oakland-born, 102-year-old, Victor Silva, Sr. often finds graffiti painted onto the back fence of his Oakland home. He has lived here and paid taxes for 80 years.
In his younger years before the wheelchair, he often painted over the graffiti himself.
Earlier this month, he got a violation citation from the City of Oakland to remove it by Tuesday the 19th or face an $1100 fine, plus an additional $1277 for each failed re-inspection.
Runaway graffiti, sometimes called urban art, has often been cited as a major sign of urban decay and disrespect for private and public property. While there are rules against graffiti, enforcing it sometimes causes more trouble than it might be worth.
In fact, like enforcing any printed law, it takes judgment and discernment to know how and when.
"It was so absurd, it's like a joke. If you drive around the city and see the graffiti everywhere, it's just I don't know what to say," said daughter-in-law Elena Silva.

Stop breaking the law a-hole

City probably pays the hood rats that tagged his property to clean it up, with funds they take from the old man

Anarcho-tyranny
Real criminals run wild while the good people of society are punished. Liberals absolutely love this

Oakland should be fined for the mess it is.

Even their NFL and MLB teams fled that hellhole. Ghettos and biker gangs are the tourist attractions now. At least people like Seth Curry are protected in their gated community as figures like him virtue signal that we need MORE democrat policy.

If I was dumb enough to live in today's California I'd take a day trip to go clean it myself.

Deed the fence to the city retroactively and then bill the city for 80 years of upkeep and maintenance!
