Conal’s activities

WHY DOES The Times again give publicity to so-called artist Robbie Conal [“Poster Boy for Mischief,” by Irene Lacher, Oct. 13]? Over the years, he and his crew have engaged in the illegal activity of plastering posters on utility boxes, poles, fences, etc. throughout the L.A. area. Government agencies have spent considerable sums of taxpayers’ money on the poster removal from public property. He should be behind bars, not in an art gallery.
