So my son was supposed to start at a new in home daycare tomorrow since we moved. Well my wife forgot to CCAP the husband and after doing so last night we find out that he's been charged with multiple domestic violence. We ask the lady today about this and she says "Yea, he's been out of the house for a week now and won't be back." The last charge was April of '17! What the fuck is wrong with people! Now we're scrambling to find childcare until we can get him into another place.

You know i'm not 100% sure but you'd hope not. I understand the embarrasment of having to tell someone that your husband has been charged with domestic abuse in the past but for fucks sake when it's other peoples children you might want to disclose that. Like, I still wouldn't put my kid in that house but at least aknowledge it and tell me that you're seeking therapy together or some shit.

So, after taking this pic...:
...I've become more than a little interested in Madison graffiti. I posted the pic on reddit, and some people there were kind enough to inform me that the tag reads "METER", and this person is an OG around here. Since then, I've taken a couple of lengthy walks around the downtown area (during daylight hours, for better or worse) to see what else is out there. One of his tags that I had seen earlier has already been painted over. There are a lot of spots on walls and utility boxes that you can tell have been painted over to remove graffiti, so it seems like the city in general does a pretty good job of cleaning up after them. I still managed to find plenty out there. The one thing that never seems to get painted over is dumpsters, so that's the easiest place to find stuff. There's another "artist" here that seems to have an affinity for climbing, because I've seen him up a lot on rooftop HVAC units; another area that probably doesn't get painted over as quickly. Another interesting one that I've seen around is this guy who does these faces on USPS shipping labels and sticks them up:
Mostly, I'm just looking to get some practice with the camera, and it gives me something to do on any 'ol weekday evening. Plus, an excuse to grab a gyro/slice of pizza/beer/etc while I'm downtown.

It's kind of cool to see patterns to that kind of stuff, and hear back story from other people!
Your photos are looking nice, especially considering your subject is a Mustang! -
Graffiti is awesome. I think the largest misconception about it is that its gang related, when in actuality that's only true 98% of the time.
If you want to find some really good stuff, you need to look for trains and underpasses.

Have you seen Exit Through the Gift Shop? It's an entertaining watch if you haven't. The history behind some graffiti and street art is pretty neat like the OBEY stickers you see everywhere. Now, is it really a misconception if it's true 98% of the time? lol. Sorry, I had to do that.

Some work is clearly stunning but once your own property has been tagged the perception changes. As a former small commercial building owner in MKE every time the building got tagged my first reaction was to think about claymores and bear traps. More realistically I'd clean everything up and repaint so I didn't get the rival retags, and wait for the next time.

I do some building maintenance and janitorial duties for a few extra dollars ( its safer and more legal than prostitution) . Some dicknose keeps writing "ZOMBOY" in sharpie on one of the garbage cans in front of the vape shop. Hardly something to complain about, but my Mr.Clean Magic Eraser can only do so much

What's in your head?
In your head?
Zomboy?

that one is Za-awmbay as in Harambe this one is Zomboy as in make me scrub that crap off for 10 minutes
FYI, isopropyl alcohol will take sharpie right off as long as it hasn't had a chance to soak in.

Cameras and visibility help deter most. Also I mean 98% of the time that's NOT the case.
Also a pressure washer does wonders. I have participated in removal before as well.

I'm not 100% positive if that's a law or not (offender being around a child care place) but there are likely regulations about it.
The other thing that could be important is to distinguish what the actual charges are. Domestic is an enhancer in Wisconsin, so you can have Battery, Disorderly Conduct, Criminal Damage to Property, etc. If the people involved in those crimes have a "Domestic" relationship (married/ever been married, kids in common, ever lived together as adults) it becomes a Domestic Battery, Domestic DC, etc and has a mandatory arrest in the State of Wisconsin. Not all domestics are violent, and the threshold for a Disorderly Conduct is very, very low in these situations.
There are a lot of instances where I would give a warning or perhaps a municipal citation (aka not a criminal charge) for DC, but due to the fact they have a domestic relationship we're required to make a custodial arrest and charge them with misdemeanor DC.

Thanks for the explanation. Dealing in background checks i'm familiar with how easily it is for a man to get a domestic abuse charge. What tipped me off was how many he's had over the course of years. One? I can chalk it up to wrong place/wrong time, bad day, whatever. Multiples is a pattern and she said she kicked him out of the house when we asked. It's not worth risking my childs safety, not that I think you were advocating that at all.

Reading back now, I realize I'd glossed over the multiple part.
I definitely wouldn't want my child around that, violent or not. Like you mentioned, those patterns show a very disturbing home life and way of living. Once I see that people have multiple domestic charges the first thing I think is that there are probably a lot more that weren't reported, vs when there's one charge it's very easy to reason that it was a one-time thing as you mentioned.

Only one spot I know of that has stuff like that:

Last two pics are my favorite.
