Tune up for a bench encounter

So a bench encounter is an opportunity to share one-on-one with somebody that’s waiting with you. If you can’t get Tom Hanks 😭 then any other listener will do. All you have to do is speak of your experience and how you’re going to move your life on.

Ok forward to Rick’s new song…

Showman

Some showman like Banki get away with it and prosper but defacing public property is not usually condoned. Unsitley property is actionable in court. Vandalism is chargeable.

Mostly not an option

Permission for murals is a possibility but neighour s need to support it.

In cases where showmen like Banki manage to evade punishment and thrive, it creates a concerning precedent. However, it is important to note that defacing public property is generally not tolerated. Such acts are considered unlawful and can result in legal action being taken against the individuals responsible. Vandalism is a chargeable offense that has consequences.

Although it may not always be feasible, obtaining permission to create murals can be a potential solution. However, it is crucial to have the support of the neighboring community in order for this option to be viable. When community members rally behind the idea of murals, it becomes more likely that the authorities will be open to allowing them. This collaboration between local residents and public authorities can create an environment where art is celebrated and public spaces are beautified.

Be a limited public figure

Reporters are no, Columnists are public figures:

A fairly high threshold of public activity is necessary to elevate people to public figure status. Typically, they must either be:

a public figure, either a public official or any other person pervasively involved in public affairs, or
a limited purpose public figure, meaning those who have “thrust themselves to the forefront of particular public controversies in order to influence the resolution of the issues involved.” A “particularized determination” is required to decide whether a person is a limited purpose public figure, which can be variously interpreted:[2]

A person can become an “involuntary public figure” as the result of publicity, even though that person did not want or invite the public attention. For example, people accused of high profile crimes may be unable to pursue actions for defamation even after their innocence is established…

A person can also become a “limited public figure” by engaging in actions which generate publicity within a narrow area of interest. For example, [jokes about]… Terry Rakolta [an activist who spearheaded a boycott of the show Married With Children] were fair comments… within the confines of her public conduct [and] protected by Ms. Rakolta’s status as a “limited public figure”.

Sourced

A public figure can push the envelope on what that person is entitled to say in the fray and what is said in respect to positions they have. These are open for more privacy concerns for activies, and can become dogged.
