Taggers have trashed our city with Graffiti. Taggers go on to become gang members who later commit more serious crimes. Painting over grafitti keeps us busy and does not solve the problem. Taggers can be easily identified by the monickers they leave which are practically their signatures. The City Council should call for the establishment of a permanent Police Tagging Investigation Task Force, stiffer fines and penalties, and all illegal alien taggers, convicted or not, should be promptly turned over to the INS for deportation.
