California Vandalism Law:
Vandalism is recognized as the deliberate damage or destruction of public or private property, without the owner's permission. While subway "graffiti art", keying a parked car, or defacing a street sign may seem inconsequential, these crimes qualify as vandalism by California lawmakers, determined to bring an end to vandalism throughout the state.
Vandalism can also be tied to hate crimes, for example in LA County police are investigating a case of graffiti vandalism that targeted supporters of Barack Obama. Vandals painted swastikas and racial slurs on Obama supporters' property.
There are vandals, specifically environmental vandals, who can cause major damage, destroy homes and sometimes endanger lives. Groups such as the Environmental Liberation Front (ELF) vandalise housing developments, auto malls and other destruction of property.
Vandalism can be a controversial topic however, because there is a debate for some as to whether certain forms of graffiti can be artistic.

- In California, vandalism is considered a "wobbler." That means that it could either be charged as a misdemeanor or a felony, depending on the amount of damage. While the Judge could put you in jail for either, it's much more likely that jail time would be given for a felony. However, given that he has no criminal history, it's not likely that he would go to jail. Much more likely would be probation and restitution (money) paid to the city or state for the damage.
