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 have a major problem wiht anyone who thinks tping is bad. I can understand no egging but anyone who says tping is bad is a whinny prick who has nothing better to do than stop kids fun. Just get ur butt out there and clean it up. If u get tped then get the person back its all even and u had fun at the same time. Good luck to everyone else out there and dont stop cuz

I agree w/ both sides here! It's fun 2 tp someones house, & I think we should be able to that, but only if you help clean it up!

I think that it is ok for people to TP someone's house as long as: A)they know about it & are fine with them and B)the people who do it will help clean it up when all the fun and games is over.
