Shame on Those Picky About Paint
* I could not believe what I read Oct. 26 (“Volunteers Paint Over Vandalism”).
Some of the residents were actually complaining when Cal State Fullerton fraternity members volunteered and painted over graffiti in the Valencia Drive and Lemon Street neighborhood because the paint did not match? These are college students making a difference near the community in which they live. I commend them for taking the time out of their day and supplying the materials with their own money.
How dare the residents complain when these people are trying to make their neighborhood look better. They should be focusing their attention on graffiti prevention, not the students matching paint. I realize not all of the residents shared those feelings expressed in the article, but shame on the ones who did.
