MODERATORS
This sounds like he made up the stupidest justification after getting himself caught red handed.
It's absolutely legitimate, because vandalism is it only if the building is older than 500 years! /s
Technically grafiti after some time they become historical for sure :)
For example Pompei has several 2100+ years old grafiti.
Although back then grafiti the writing style was different, usually it was much nicer, unless it was written in the walls of a brothel.
Our British "artist" had only to wait a few thousand years!
