Vandalism for CHALK! I live in Virginia and it's been raining virtually nonstop for a month. This crosswalk would have been washed off in a couple days, max. This is obviously butthurt local officials on a power trip
officers were unable to determine whether his improvised crosswalk had been created with permanent paint. Officials determined the crosswalk could not be removed, so city workers covered it with black paint.
Apparently it was very tricky.
He sent them a fucking email:
"It’s chalk[,] not paint[.] Please replace it with a real one.”
Police subsequently called Cox and accused him of committing vandalism. He soon surrendered and was booked with intentional destruction of property, which carries up to a year in jail as well as a maximum fine of $2,500
What was that pavement made of, to be destroyed by chalk?!
I suppose they have to arrest all those kids RUINING property with their coloured chalks on their sidewalks.
Good thing they have those night vision goggles and automatic rifles, you just can't trust a kid armed with chalk these days.
Somewhere, a Karen is smiling while reading this, thinking about those brats down the street...
THEY WENT OUT WITH A CREW AND PAINT AND STILL DIDNT MAKE A CROSSWALK
Their pettiness knows no bounds.
Authorities responded by covering Cox’s handiwork with black paint
