February 2022 — A "PRIVATE PARKING ENTRANCE" sign in downtown Minneapolis is marked with graffiti reading "F12." The "F12" tag has been associated with graffiti artists and also emerged as a protest slogan, notably in relation to the killing of Amir Locke during a police raid in Minneapolis in 2022. The sign directs vehicles to a parking structure within the urban environment. The defacement of public signage with graffiti can signify various social sentiments, from artistic expression to political commentary.
