And you are the king of skateboarders and you speak for everyone and everyone who skateboard is a good skateboarder and no one sucks.. uh huh.


no one sucks or are they dumb?You can say that about anything...

QUOTE
What about Rugby and Football? They're sports that are usually played in places where people don't have to tell them to GTFO. Do you see anyone complaining about them? What's there to complain about? Are they breaking any laws?


way to take it out of context, i was stating that they could hurt each other as easily as skateboarders could jumping off stairs.

QUOTE
Everything is so simple in your world isn't it? From the way that you talked about suing people, I bet you've never even handled anything more than $10 because if you have, you wouldn't/shouldn't be able to talk like that. You probably never even gotten in car because you obviously don't worry about what goes on after an accident. You probably don't even understand the concept of insurance and liability. So because you don't know, I won't laugh at you for it. I'll just be patient.


Havnt handled anything more than 10 dollars wtf are u talking about,i also have my license and drive everyday if ur trying to offend me please think of something that has to be true.I do understand insurance and liabilty...




QUOTE
1. If you're concerned about transportation, get a bike, learn to drive, take a bus, take a trolley, WALK. It's not imperative that you use a skateboard to get from point A to point B.


difference of a bike from a skateboard? bike proably being more dangerous and faster and more risky.Of course i dont have to take a skateboard but what happens if i wanna be eco friendly? i dont see how it not being imperative have to do with my topic at all.If i drive gas and college parking is horrendous. Why not look cool riding a skateboard from point a to b.

also skateboarding is a sport.argue.maybe in not this situation though.

oh yes i know what skitching is lol ty tony hawk games.And im sure people try that but thats just a responsibility issue.i have yet to see someone do that in my whole life besides me jokingly.anyone can abuse something by being stupid.

its like calling out the kids who jump of of houses,that isnt a valid point.

1. What? You missed that point (like you have missed most points) entirely. Moving on.

2. And you missed the point, again. Let me spell out this one though because you tend to misunderstand a point and turn around and poke the person who poked it at you, but then they won't know what on earth you're saying. What we've been talking about isn't about kids getting hurt. Period. Let's get pass this silly "skateboarders get hurt just like everyone else can get hurt", because that isn't the main problem, it's just something supplemental.

The main problem is the breaking of laws, the disrespect of private property, and the abuse of public property. Are we in the clear now? Let me bold it again so we don't have to misunderstand each other again.

The main problem is the breaking of laws, the disrespect of private property, and the abuse of public property.

3. "Wtf" am I talking about? I'm talking about you not knowing anything that goes on when someone has an accident (the crashing into something kind, not the smelly kind). You don't know the concept of liability, or else you'd know who has that liability thrust upon them when an idiot decides to be an idiot on their property. Do you know what I'm talking about now?

4. And... you missed her point. Not surprising, but disappointing. I'll yield to her for spelling it out for you because it's not a point I brought up.

5. I do not doubt that skateboarding IS a sport, love. Even someone as old and reclusive as me (sarcasm) know of Tony Hawk. But you said so yourself, in this case, it's arguable if it's a sport. Even if someone can argue that it is a sport, one then has to ask if it's a "legal" sport.

6. Obviously, something's been abused (property)... or else we wouldn't be having this discussion.

By the by, I've seen videos of kids jumping off of houses. It is stupid, but if they're in their own houses, at least they're not doing something illegal and innocent property owners elsewhere don't have to be liable for their stupidity.
