Skater "Punks"
Advertising
Just to point out, skaters aren't always punks.
 
Sure you see them skate almost everywhere around town, filming there tricks, hanging on the corners, hear the banging on the board hit the ground.
 
Some of them are good at what they do.
 
But, some skaters are "punks." Think about it, who gets in more fights besides your friendly neighborhood gangs? That's right! skaters do! your probably thinking, "why would they be in fights when there having fun skating?''
 
Well some of them have this attitude that you can't tell them what to do and they can skate where they like even on private property.
 
Also, there are some people out there who think these skaters are a bad group and have somewhat a passion to get after them or curse them out.
 
Skaters fight back.
 
They fight security guards, citizens, other kids, also police.
 
I don't mean arguing I mean fist to fist, You can see them on the Internet too, Just go to YouTube and enter "skate fights" and you'll have a lot of responses.
 
Remember, don't look down on skaters they just want to have fun. Some of them do make a big deal about their rights to skate and will fight.
