This was found tagged on a wall in China, after the Chinese police murdered hundreds of Buddhist monks. Is this art or crime? Explain in your blog.


Depends on your definition of freedom of speech. To me it's just that, others might say it's vandalism. But if the message has something important to say then it really isn't because they're expressing their thoughts to the public eye. Getting people to think about the words written in that wall isn't their ultimate goal. Most people aren't challenged with philosophical questions. They have as much as a right as the news papers to express their message. It's sort of a hard reality, that some people won't to be exposed to.
