As some of the other commenters have alluded, it's difficult to define what makes some graffiti good and some not. I think it's a combination of location, content, and artistic-ness. The Brookland-CUA station has some interesting stuff - there is a Michael Jackson tribute, and some cartoon cats that I like. But the giant "F*CK THE POLICE" tag that appeared on a warehouse near Fort Totten (I think) a few months ago - not so much. I also get upset when I see graffiti covering public murals - I mean, have some respect. Seriously.

Anyway, I am inclined to agree with Doug - some graffiti is ugly and offensive, but overall, I think the cops and the city have much better things to do.
