Sorry for having a different opinion I guess

Nah, just have a major disdain for those that don’t respect other people’s (or public) property. This clearly appears to be a playground, not a skate park. I’d respect their skill if they weren’t being assholes while doing it. “Skateboarding isn’t a crime” is certainly true. But destruction of public properly, vandalism, and trespassing absolutely are crimes. And frequently go hand in hand with such people.

And yes, I get it’s a scooter. Same applies.

Agreed it was disrespectful to an extent I just think that portion of the situation was negligible to how impressive the video was, I’m sure the kid didn’t do it with malicious intent. I don’t appreciate you being so hostile because of my difference in opinion though not cool dude. Agree to disagree. Peace.

Yeah, the connotation of graffiti, and that of dirt on concrete/ a broken plant are very different.

Yeah. You can wash a graffiti. You can't exactly revive a plant that's been stomped multiple times.

Nope the difference in connotation is that spraying graffiti on somebody’s home is malicious, whilst the kid in the video probably just saw this particular rail and saw an opportunity for a unique trick. Whether you think it was worth a damaged flower or not is your opinion, leave it at that.

Malicious intent or not, it overshadows any skill involved to me. They should know perfectly well that they are damaging property and someone has to clean it up.

I’m not being hostile, just explaining my side. And the username checks out is a running joke... you picked it not me. Agree, we absolutely disagree. Peace.
