\u00a0I emailed the following to Answer@AnswerSF.org today:<\/p>\n
I spoke with a volunteer today at about 23rd and Valencia in SF wheat-pasting flyers for the October 27th Fin del la guerra ahora march.<\/p>\n
He had wheat-pasted 22″x17″ fliers onto a garbage can and other items. Please do not have your volunteers use wheat-paste on public property for events; wheat-pasted flyers remain up long after the event is forgotten. As the posters degrade over the course of a few years, they make our beautiful city look ugly.<\/p>\n
Use tape, use staples, use nails, post on billboards, post where billboards are welcome, post in laundromats, post in community centers. Do not wheat-paste my city.<\/p>\n
The volunteer told me in response to my critisism, “the city has a program to take down flyers like these.” No, it is not the city’s responsibility to remove your garbage. It is -your- responsibility. Take responsibility.<\/p>\n
San Francisco -does- have a program to deal with graffiti. Call 311. First time, offenders are usually reprimanded. After further offenses fines are levied.<\/p>\n
I have no problem at all with the march. I’ve marched in events myself. I have a problem with how you are promoting it.<\/p>\n
If your volunteers committed to removing the posters after the event, you would gain much local support.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
