To be honest, I hate this "us against them" attitude. I think that if we all (drivers and bikers alike) became more sympathetic of the others, we wouldn't have to brand lamp posts like immature 15 year olds.
It's things like this that make many drivers hate cyclists.

Either way, graffitti is stupid and solves nothing. What if someone spray painted "Hummers own the street" there? It would be equally stupid.
Besides, it looks like construction owns that street to me.

This would be better posted in the SS/FG forum, as that bike has no derailleur and is painted rattlecan black.

How about graffiti that reads:
"WE SHARE THE STREET"
I know it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside.

As a dad, its a fairly standard response for me. As a husband, its an all-too-damn common one.
