Its crazy these grown ass adults/elders are going after teenagers/young adults/kids and literally stealing their stuff or trying to make them fall that's js some wild shit to me, and they need to pick on someone there own size.
If damage is being done to someone's property, the "haters" have every right to intercede, especially when so many of the "skaters" are such disrespectful punks who are an insult to the sport. When the "haters" assault skateboarders or just go at them for no reason, that's not okay at all.
That Australian man should of been charged with assault for pulling that kid up, and accostering (his level of aggression), he's a pathetic aggressive excuse for a person.
I understand this issue from both point of views from both the general public and the skaters themselves, when people ask the skaters to stop they should respect this but when people hit them or take their property that shouldn't be allowed some people on both sides of this issue can both be rude and cause problems, some people love to bother others for the pleasure of it ,and the skaters love to cause problems as well so both sides are at fault.
Disclaimer: I've been skating longer than you... Quit giving people a hard time when you're the one trespassing and skating somewhere you already knew you weren't allowed to skate. You had some fun there, respectfully move on... giving them a hard time when you're the one in the wrong is what makes us look bad. Show respect and you'll earn some in return for doing so. lol... pigeon lady had the best anti-skater method i think i've ever seen! Touche pigeon lady, touche!
stupid bastards, why bother the kids from skating, no one jumps in front of your car if someone doesn’t like something, in Russia they would try to take the board away like that, they would immediately break them without talking, they would break their legs.
I'm not saying I'm a Saint but respect goes a long ways. Just ask if you can can skate there and you'd be surprised how cool people can be. If you act like a d bag, expect to be treated like one👍
