reminds me of a certain run in i had with the wrightsville beach police department. ****ers threw a bag over my head and slammed my face against a cop car for skating down the road with a surfboard when i was drunk. Pigs even broke the nose of my surfboard when they shoved it in the car. Funny thing is they put an "evidence' tag on my surfboard when i finally got out a few days later, which i thought was hilarious and proceeded to leave on there for a while.
no it doesnt work that way in north carolina although i wanted to. All in all i had to pay $1000 bail and another $400 fee to a lawyer, AND another $1000 expungment fee to make it all never have happened ****ing two days in county for skateboarding on the fourth of july AND i lost my job because i worked in the same compound as the rookie ***** cop that did it. My boss was super cool about it tho we still surf and talk **** about that one piece of crap cop.
i gave a police helicopter the finger when i paddled across the inlet, and then i crossed the road from one side to the other in front of the cop car which he interpreted as disrupting traffic. I then got lectured for fifteen minutes, and told the cop i had work early so he either had to arrest me or let me go because i was sick of his ****. he responded "you wanna go to jail tough guy" and i spit on the ground and said "your move sancho" lol and i gave parking tickets at the beach at the time
lol yes being a stupid kid in a little beach town with a fascist police force and not many good waves to be found. WB can keep there mush waves and illegal DUI checkpoints
Well, boyz....if you don't follow the laws, don't expect life to be a bowl of roses. But them fines, trev, do seem to be excessive to say the least.
http://www.tampagov.net/parks-and-recreation/programs/parks-and-facilities/skate-parks ^Free Parks, there are several good pay parks too btw I got chased out of skating many city areas 20+ years ago, now I see things much differently. Not agreeing with the officers use of force but I'm sure the kid read the signs
That cop is a fuking pu$$y for taking down that kid like that. If a two grown men can't secure a skinny child easily they should not have badges... Funny how the fat loser fell when he tried to slam the kid on the ground... BUT, I'm sure they were provoking the cops. The cops came in hot like they have been chasing them. And they had the camera out and recording already, so they knew it was coming... Probably did it on purpose to get on TV. #WhitePunkSkaterLivesMatter
Just give the kid a ticket and move on, no need to go all Gustapo on him, that's overkill and is why cops are getting killed in the "line of duty" by folks who are tired of it. Maybe if they treated their fellow citizens with a little more respect that wouldn't happen as much. I'm glad things like this are getting caught on camera now, because back in the day they were able to get away with it and nobody could do anything because it was your word against a cops word, and you know who wins that every time.
i agree i was a dumb kid and learned to respect the law the hard way, but for the record i work harder and in more dangerous situations in 1 day now then that pig does in a whole month, and make half his salary with no benefits. Some cops have it tough and there jobs are dangerous and there heroes just for showing up, and....some cops work at wrightsville beach lol
Yeah, back when I skated there were parks to go to as well but it wasn't the same for me. Skateboarding for me is much like surfing is for me. I like the adventure of exploring new territory and finding a fun spot to do my thing. Street skating to me is the most organic version of skating. Take something that has already been created, for a different purpose and make it into your own skate park. I don't recall destroying of ones property other than maybe some wax on a curb or paint scratches on a hand rail, so what was the harm? The kid was 15, doing what a 15 year old does.
if society decayed and and the urban centers became lawless post apocalyptic ****holes (many of them already are) the skateboarders would thrive and dominate due to their grittyness and their knowledge of navigation through the concrete catacombs.
My neighbor is a cop, nice guy, but he's morbidly obese, half retarded and never shuts the f*ck up, so don't start a convo with him or you aint getting out alive.
You will OBEY. I know some good cops but it seems to be the exception rather than the rule. Known some really bad ones, child molester, wife killer ect. I trust none of them. Bottom line is everybody is guilty if something in this day and age.
My first ride in a police car was due to skateboarding... 1983... fiberglass Hobie board with Black Flag bars for duct tape. I was provoking them... Now I mold impressionable minds...
I love that scene in Requiem for a Dream where they steal the cops gun and play monkey in the middle with him. HAHAHA **** the police. They'll write me a ticket for skateboarding while some junkie is selling smack to a prostitute for a blowjob 25 feet away. It's like how when i'm at work i post on here to look like im busy, they write harmless people doing victimless activities tickets so they don't have to do real work to clean up the city. fuking hate the police. I used to live in a real city and the cops actually served a purpose. Those were brave dudes working in rough neighborhoods. That was in Chicago. Cops in SE North Carolina, not so much. They're more concerned with who is going in and out of the bathroom than who is breaking into the cars in my neighborhood. Did I mention that I have no respect for fat fuking reject waste of life redneck cock-in-eachothers-asshole cops?
