問題詳情:
Take a ride on Berlin's clean city trains, and you'll notice one thing: the German capital seems to be disappearing under a tide of graffiti.
These are almost impossible to read or are fashionable names and fantastic pictures on walls, bridges, subway trains-almost any urban surface. To some people, they're an art form with an edge. They're rebellious (叛逆的), daring and even beautiful. To others, graffiti is nothing but a disease that slowly moves into neighborhoods.
For most officials, the root of the problem is that German law does not treat graffiti as a crime and low-cost airlines have made Berlin a center for graffiti sprayers from all over Europe.
In Berlin, annual damage caused by graffiti is estimated at 500 million euros.50 million euros are spent on cleaning up graffiti.
Neighboring countries have far severer graffiti laws, according to a report in the Berliner Kurier newspaper. In Sweden and Norway, repeat offenders(冒犯者) can be given prison terms of up to four years and in Denmark up to six years. And US states put repeat offenders in serious cases in prison for longer terms.
Under current German law, graffiti is only punishable if it can be proven that the spraying itself or the removal of the graffiti resulted in damages to the surface under it.
"We have to clearly show most young people who do this that illegal spraying is punishable," said Karin Schubert, Berlin's social democratic justice minister. If so, it could make life more difficult for Germany's estimated 8,000 active graffiti artists.
Graffiti used to be admired, especially when it appeared on the western side of the Berlin Wall.
