Ki mentioned this, and I think you see it in this youtube video (2:20 marker). A skateboarder (if you want to call this retard holding a skateboard a skateboarder) hitting a bike cop with a glass bottle at LOVE on “Go Skateboarding Day”.
I know this is going to turn into a big ol’ fuck the cops post, and honestly I don’t think it’s even about that. Whether you feel all cops are pigs, or you just think there doing there job like everyone else. Good Cop or Bad Cop I would be fucking pissed if some asshole did this, and chances are would be ready to take it out on other skateboarders. What the hell do you accomplish by doing something like this?
let me repeat fucking retard
next time I hope you get a billy club to the back of your head and your parents can post that video on youtube and cry about how you were “targeted”
To all the young skaters bringin’ love back. Have at it! You deserve it. I wish I had the clean under 18 record and the running legs to get away. Cop’s have it rough in Philly these days with all the gun violence. I wish their boss would keep them on track and tell them to leave the skaters alone. Kid that thew a bottle at a cop… you better fix your attitude or your gonna help ruin it for all your friends.

thats the problem right there. young ass ignorant kids like the one who threw the bottle at the cop are gonna ruin it for everyone. even if you hate the cops you cant blame them. some kid threw a glass bottle at the cop. what good does that do? what are you hoping to achieve by doing that? there not going to give love back when kids do shit like that. even if you hate cops, you cant blame them now. when kids do shit like that it makes us all look bad. i bet you the kid that threw the bottle thinks hes so tough and badass. well hes not. hes proably a young kid. hes ignorant and doesnt realize that when he does something like that he makes us all look bad.
whoah, it made it to haveboard
throwing a bottle at a cop is stupid period. But like offthewall said it makes everyone who skateboards look bad. And as we all know there are plenty of skaters who are good people and intellegent. People shouldnt sterotype a group like us but the fact is they do aterotype us as iggnorant,unruly, troublemakers so in turn we all need to think before we do something. In this same way though skaters sterotype cops as pigs. if we would both look at eachother for what we realy are and from that shit would get so much better for the both of us.
that video was soo sick! besides the way the kids acted at that very moment n shit toward that cop. but damn that vid was good and glad i got to be there to see all this in person.
tried to skate love a week or so ago and had to run from cops. i am officially way too old for that shit.
Nobody needs to throw bottles — especially at cops when you’re trying to legalize something. How do they not see the logic there? Remember the 2000 RNC protests? That was actually the first time I ever went to Love. We skated all fucking day with fifty cops just sittin’ there. Skaters were even bullshitting with the cops! I’d be more passionate about legalizing skating at Love if I was better at skating that kinda stuff. Besides, we have Paine on the way. I always thought City Hall looked way cooler than Love, anyway. Live forever, George Carlin.
everyone makes a good point here. bottom line is that kid made us look bad and kids like that are the reason people are gonna stereotype all skaters the way they do. and as for us stereotyping cops its like this. everyone has dealt with the asshole cop but then again ive had run-ins with cops who were really cool and understood that were not trying to give anyone a hard time. the cops who give us a hard time are the cops who have dealt with skaters who are ignorant such as the one that threw the bottle…
Well, the cops WERE gonna let people skate for a bit….But that ruined it for the day….I was skating Love the other day and was talking to a cop about it….it was all in all a stupid move..If these kids want to stay under the radar over there, that’s not the way to do it. I don’t ever remember being that fucking stupid or disrespectful when I was a kid. The same kid who threw that bottle is the same kid who bitches he gets kicked out of everywhere…..wonder why?
Oh….and shout out to whoever made the video…Pretty dope…Wu Tang & skateboarding…..bringin back some classic 93 shit!!
thanks ki, in this video we wernt tryia make skaters look bad. we just documented the day. but yeah the kids who threw bottles were d bags and that cop deff called backup and mad kids got arrested for other peoples mistakes
that pisses me off so much. im glad i wasnt there. one kid ruined it for everyone. because of that kid everyone else got arrested.
Yea I also forgot to mention the video was fucking rad thanks fellas
It just dawned on me that this was for Go Skate Day. June 21: skate if you’re going to anyway.
wat
When i was a wee little guy in 93, if you did some shit like throw a bottle at a cop, or got out of line, you got beat up by the older guys. You little kids from Jersey and the burbs and you old heads who are’nt even from here listen up. First off stay home, or just quit skating, it would make it easier for the rest of us. Secondly, if you keep getting out of line at love or city hall, here is whats gonna start happening::::were gonna take it back to 93 and send you fools home bruised without your board. There are only three things that should ever happen when at love park: some running (obviously), some skating and some chilling. DONT RUIN OUR SPOT!!!!!!!!
I was a weekend warrior for a long time…It took alot of years to ditch that status..I WAS around for the board jacking days…The old heads there def had Love on lock…You step out of line..you got checked. I learned REAL quick..Eyes open, mouth shut, don’t stand in the way, share your iced-t, don’t over wax….These kids nowadays have no respect..Yeah i sound like an old fart…but it’s so true..I hate to admit it…but I won’t be mad if the DGK sparks up again…Anyone seen Action Matt or Jaeson lately?
