Mural Or Graffiti?

Looks like several murals are going to be removed from the streets of Los Angeles, specifically the east side, a little known ordinance allows the city to call for change. I remember driving down Soto St or Brooklyn Blvd, which is now called Cesar Chavez Blvd, my parents would call or say "por la bruk-leeen" that was back in the 1980's; we would around town and I would see an Aztec warrior holding his dead wife or girlfriend. A group of friends hanging out, some in their lowriders just having fun, but now the city is calling for change. Graffiti murals or store signs are what covers most of the street when you drive down Cesar Chavez blvd, most of the owners preffer these, than to have a gang sign tagged on the wall, or a tagger's signature piece. The city wants them removed or they have given the owners the option to have wall repainted witha different mural. I think the problem here is that the city has defined what's considered "graffiti", let's see what happens. I will drive by there one of these days and take some pictures of the famous murals that adorn the panaderias and "licorerias", liquor stores.
