Question: What law is broken when you toilet paper a house?
Answer: In Arizona, A.R.S. §13-1603 states that if you throw, place, drop or permit to be dropped on public or private property any litter, destructive or injurious material and do not immediately remove it, you can be charged with a misdemeanor (jail time and a fine) or a felony (prison time and a fine) depending upon what was placed on the property. Toilet paper could be considered 'litter' and therefore, toilet papering a house might result in being charged with a crime under this statute. Most states have similar laws - you could call your local police department and ask about the laws in your state.

I think tping is definitely okay..unless you tp old people..then that is just mean...but tping your friends is fun..and catching them while their tping you back is even better, cuz you can scare them haha...then you can make them clean it up...but it's just kinda like a game...people shouldn't think it's "mean" cuz that's just stupid...but i guess mostly people who don't like to have fun (or people over their 30s) wouldn't like it cuz they don't know what it's like to be a kid anymore..

what are u talkig about, tping is ok and there is nothing wrong with it. If someone gets mad over tp then they need to get some help. And besides people usally friends just as a joke , so its no big deal. And if it was that big of a deal to them then they can just get them back, and that is that.

You tp someone's house when you dislike them.
Why in the world would you help someone that you dislike. By helping them clean up you would be defeating the purpose of tping the house.
