guerrilla citizenship

In the past few days, some proactive soul has taken to chalking alerts onto the pavements of my local streets:
These chalk alerts sprung up overnight it seemed. The considerate artist circles the offending item and follows it up with the above warning a couple of yards away with a suitably directed arrow.
Incredibly considerate. And I can’t help but marvel at a concern for fellow man that appears to overwhelm a surely natural distaste aroused by such a chalky circling act.
I would like to hereby welcome a new trend. I shall call it guerrilla citizenship. Remember, you heard it here first.
WATCH OUT (arrow pointing in appropriate direction) DOG POO
