Mike Heath writes at the Maine Family Policy Council: "First, graffiti symbolizes lawlessness and disorder. From the outset, the method in which graffiti is produced is illicit and unlawful. Its techniques are anarchic and without order, as is its finished result. Second, graffiti demoralizes the public.

Thirdly, and this is the worst threat, graffiti calls into question Maine's reputation as a 'place set a part' a region which is safer and more wholesome than the rest of the nation."
