Update on Skater's in Hot Springs

Watch the video in the link below and look at the people who are protesting the skateboarders.

They have resorted to calling the skateaboarders names. These kids could be doing drugs or stealing things or worse but they aren't while they are skateboarding anyway and in a public place where people can keep an eye on them. I can't beleive that the anti-skateboarder sentiment still runs so hot so many years after I skated.

These kids are individualists that choose a physical activity, a sport to occupy their time. They should be rewarded and commended for their talent and grace with a great skatepark right downtown where everyone can come and watch. They are an inspiration to people to get up off their fat butts and do something!
