So now you can spray paint something on someone else's property and sue the property's owner if they erase it?

Unbelievable.

Scratch that, totally believable but unconscionable.

When you are looking for something absolutely stark raving mad, look for a federal judge. I think insanity may be a job requirement.

Anyone have the judge's address? I have some idle paint cans and I'm feeling artistic.

This isn't SCOTUS, but I'm reminded of what I still think is the worst decision in the history of that court -- affirming the ability of municipalities to use eminent domain to force the sale of private property so that another private entity can convert the land to a use that generates more property tax revenue.

On the news earlier, it was reported that the owner had originally invited the decoration by the artists, FWIW...

IMO, shouldn't change a thing - owner still owns the building, stupid laws or not.
