Speaking of graffiti, have you seen the home with "drug dealer" graffiti written across the side? This is getting out of hand.  I really enjoy jogging with my dogs but, with all this stuff going on I don't know anymore. Is there still a block watch? If so does anyone have info on becoming a member? Where is our HOA? By the way...when are the meetings anyway?  The calendar is not updated.

Go to castlegateblockwatch@gmail.com and ask Sandi to add you to the E-mail list. Don't know what happened to the HOA.

By reading some post here I can see some peoples mind set. It isn't those sweet little kids fault but how dare that mean old man park his truck where he did.

Look people see what this is, it is called vandalizing this is not something that can be washed off with soap and water this is spray paint, not finger paint. He has to have his truck completely painted over again plus is business lettering done all over again, And I am sure this is not something he budget for. So what if he parks there once in while to get free advertising is that a reason to vandalize it? So to the person this truck belongs to I am sorry this happen to you I hope they catch these little creeps and make them pay. Who ever did this just show everyone who saw the truck how small mined these creep's really are. I have one other question where are the parents?   

I believe you can get that off with a pressure washer (although I am not 100% sure on that), and he COULD pain it himself, it may not look pretty but it can be done.  But seriously I have a 6 1/2 year old who is learning to read so he's reading all the signs and what not on the side of the road, we drive past that thing and he's sounding out ass and bitch and drug addict and then asking me why that's on the truck, yeah GREAT thing for my 6 1/2 year old to be learning to read huh??  I understand and agree that the guy should be able to drum up some business no qualms there, I don't think it should have been tagged and I don't think it was his fault at all, but I DO think he needs to be responsible and keep the thing out of public view until the graffiti is gone and find a way to drum up business by other means that don't involve letting small children (or adults who are offended) read "drug addict" "ass" and "bitch" on the side of a truck in public view, and I have to get home, there's no other way to go so I have no choice but to drive by the thing.  To be quite honest, I had written down his number in case we ever needed him and I promptly threw it away when I saw his lack of regard for other people.  Again I don't think it was his fault it got tagged, I do think whoever did it should have to pay to fix it, but I also think he should be responsible and not continue to put it out there until it has been washed off, painted over, or covered up in some way shape or form.
