Unfortunately, I think the only that reason it has provoked emotion is because the group who created it did not take credit for it and then demonized someone who, understandably, viewed it as vandalism rather than art.

If they had put up signs taking credit for their work in the first place then I suspect that the only reaction that it would have provoked would have been, "Ho-hum."
