Banksy Stirs Up Some Controversy on his Trip to New Orleans and Alabama

Bansky, the legendary street graffiti artist, has struck again. This time, it’s west of the Atlantic ocean. Banksy’s unmistakable methodology and style has been sighted in New Orleans, as well as rural Alabama. His New Orleans pieces surfaced last week, while his hanging Ku Klux Klan member piece was sighted just a few days ago. His Ku Klux Klan piece was just taken down earlier today. What a shame. Pics after the jump.

According to WoosterCollective,

The piece below was spotted on an old abandoned Chevron Station near Birmingham Alabama. (We’re told it’s somewhere between where the 59 Freeway meets the 65 going South near a large Home Depot on the 59)
