Wednesday, February 20, 2013 11:19:28 AM The lady should have kept her temper in check, calmly called the skaters over to speak, and then emptied a Glock right into their bro-speaking faces while Quentin Tarantino filmed each bloody death. That's how adults should handle things. |

Wednesday, February 20, 2013 8:22:42 AM @ lt633c, I was mocking (mocking : Tease or laugh at in a scornful or contemptuous manner, Make (something) seem laughably unreal or impossible ) your over the top opinion on dealing with them. I.E tossing their boards into a ravine etc.. LOL, you'd figure someone as aged as yourself would have come across this before, but none the less; it's not your place to enforce the law, nor is it your place to enforce "street justice". That's why we have individuals known as police officers (this is sarcasm, if need be I can explain this to you as well, or if you want you can search it on google to save us both time). |

Wednesday, February 20, 2013 6:31:32 AM I love reading the arguments in the comment section. Even when some of you have been clearly proven wrong, and are CLEARLY beaten, you just won't give up. Very entertaining. |

Tuesday, February 19, 2013 9:15:46 PM I dunno. I mean, yeah the lady should have just called the cops, but obviously there was more to the video than what we saw. I would also love watching the skaters get a good old fashioned beat down just because they're acting like punk assed kids. |

Tuesday, February 19, 2013 8:26:37 PM haha people take life so seriously. She got what she deserved at the end. I bet if she just asked nicely they would have moved. I would hate to be that type of person living my life because in the end there is no benefit to being a c***. |

Tuesday, February 19, 2013 7:51:14 PM Did she have right to prohibit boarding? She might have saved some argument if it had been posted. I know boards can be a pain (bunches of boarders go down our back lane at night and it sounds like a jet airliner) and cause damage as well, so I understand her perspective. |

Tuesday, February 19, 2013 7:24:54 PM I can't tell properly but it seems she fell of her own accord. One thing I take issue with is, I've never in my time skating, damaged property so other than trespassing, whats the issue? Just call the drating cops and be done with it, why approach a bunch of unknowable youths who, for all she knows could of just smacked her round the head with the trucks and be done with the silly old hag. She was potentially putting herself in harms way |

Tuesday, February 19, 2013 7:06:57 PM She has no right to take the board. Ask them to leave and call the cops but that's all you can do lady. |

Tuesday, February 19, 2013 6:07:38 PM "I just love how the younger males on here side with the skateboarders. Bros stick together even if wrong has been done." ~ And I'm surprised at all the old coots who are defending this obnoxious lady who is clearly overstepping her boundaries. She's supposed to be the adult, and there were better ways she could have handled that situation |

Tuesday, February 19, 2013 5:44:21 PM 1. not trespassing, 2 of the kids lived there. 2. not battery, the woman fell after she tried chasing them 3. the woman stole the skateboard. Larceny is illegal.

Tuesday, February 19, 2013 5:42:36 PM 100% she was right. they were trespassing and she said they could have the board if they would wait for an officer to arrive. she had no intent to permanently deprive the owner of the skateboard if they choose to stay on the premises which they were on illegally. not much different than if you were to lose a frisbee over a fence that displays a "no trespassing" sign. legally you cant just hop the fence because you lost your disc bro. kids: trespassing, battery (knocking over the woman) |

Tuesday, February 19, 2013 5:23:38 PM "I just love how the younger males on here side with the skateboarders. Bros stick together even if wrong has been done. " It has nothing to do with that. She wanted to be a hero and she got what she was asking for. When you decide to make a confrontation - any confrontation - you must be aware of the consequences. Those kids gave her more than enough chances. At that age I would not have been as kind as they were. I would have ripped my board from her hands immediately - no questions asked. So, my point is that she got what was coming to her; however, she should be thankful it wasn't worse. |

Tuesday, February 19, 2013 4:42:50 PM I used to skate and if a property owner came out and asked me to leave I always apologized picked up my board and left. There's really no reason to be a dick about it. |
