fuck these guys
Kid one:
Did illegally ride a skateboard against a law
then
attempted to flee an officer
at that point the police officer is authorized to use force to subdue the fleeing criminal
Kid Two and Kid Three:
Did illegally interfere with the arrest
then fled
same as before, the officer can use force to subdue
The skateboarders have probably disregarded the no skateboarding law before, the officer was fed up with it, and acted within the full extent of his rights even if common sense says it was a bit much.
as for the skateboarders you can't use the "Napster Defense" (it's not illegal because I don't agree with the law)
in this case that law was no skateboarding in public, had they not broken that law (or the law of interfering with a police officer), had they not fled from the police, the incident wouldn't have happened.
Personal Responsibility for the win
as for the skateboarders you can't use the "Bush Defense" (it's not illegal because I don't agree with the law)
