No doubt a good way to get nasty mattresses off the street, but it seems to be promoting a moral agenda rather than encouraging cleanliness or hygiene.

Still, it's interesting to see a community decide what constitutes graffiti and what does not. And I while I suspect there is nothing the borough will - or can - do about advertising pollution, it's nice to see someone complain.
