Destroying Property isn't Fun For Anyone

The definition of vandalism is and action involving deliberate destruction of or damage to public or private property. This article states that there are many factors that can go in to people vandalizing property but the number one reason among college students is alcohol. They go hand in hand, because there are so many bars near campuses its easy for college kids to go out and get drunk, which then leads to them destroying things whether or not its personal or not. 
Vandalism can be summed up very quickly, it's not right and shouldn't be done.  Going out and having a few drinks with some friends isn't a big deal. But when it gets to the point that you are so drunk that you go out purposely ruin someone's personal belongings. How would you like it if you woke up and saw that your car was written all over or the side of your house was spray painted, you would be very upset and angry.
