    So one group had a permit but did more then permitted but weren’t punished, while the group this article is about didn’t have a permit, was given a lawful order to not deface property, and were punished for doing so anyways. Sure, there’s some grey in there but it wasn’t a violation of their first amendment.

        Yeah. Unless the artwork was lewd or NSFW, seems like this is a huge overreacting.

        Let people chalk it they want to chalk.
