Breaking news: Paint made illegal, cause some moron painted something stupid.

I'd usually agree with you, but it seems he sent them to an actual minor for "reasons".

Asked whether more funding will be provided for the anti-paint enforcement divisions: it's such a big backlog, we'll rather just wait for somebody to piss of a politician to focus our resources.

Some places do lock up spray paint due to its use in graffiti, so that's not without precedent.

They lock it up because it's frequently stolen. (Because of its use in graffiti, but still.)
