Banksy "Charlie Brown Arsonist" in LA

Okay, so here is Banksy's latest work in Los Angeles, CA.  The owner of this building sent workers to cut Charlie out.  Crazy, huh?  My pics aren't the greatest, but check out http://www.larajenkinsphoto.com/ for better quality pics.  If you are here to see my creations, simply scroll down.  I just had to share since I've used Banksy's work in my pieces!!  I love that he addresses issues that most ignore or are unaware of. If you are wearing a Banksy piece - be proud ;)
Banksy, thanks for visiting Los Angeles - xoxo

*Update as of 2/19/11 - was informed last night that this piece was in fact stolen.  Pretty awful that you can have footage and nothing can be done about it.  Tragic end - the alleged thieves placed "Firestarter" on ebay and sold it for thousands.
