Skate boarding has been a part of my life since I was 12 years old. I should not be kicked out of somewhere just because I’m a skateboarder. People stereotype skateboarders saying they are all a bad influence, but I feel differently about that. Skateboarders are bad if they choose to be bad; skateboarders are just like any other human being. They can make their choice to be good or bad, it is all up to what they want to be. Skateboarding is the sport where you get to have fun; you don’t really have a practice schedule. You just skate whenever you want to. The authorities are trying to pass a law to ban it completely, wouldn’t that be unconstitutional to do, which in the first amendment it states that any group should be able to get together as long as they cause no harm to the city or citizens. I know I’m not the only one who feels this way; we should get together and make a difference.
I agree with you Shawn, and your passion is definitely shown through your words. As long as no one or property is being endangered, skaters should be allowed to skate as it is a form of exercise. It is also a positive outlet for teens. My question is, "When, where, and why was the first skating ban issued?"
