Cops suck.


A couple of days while me and my good skate buddy were at Chino skatepark (the one near the Big 4) and there were a bunch of new pad signs, saying, "Helmet, knee, and elbow pads required." Me and my friend did not know about this new enforcement. So, while he and I started to skate the pigs rolled up in their fairly new pig-mobile and shouted over the loud speaker: "Everyone not wearing all their pads must leave." So, okay, we go, leaving a total of three skaters in the park. So we go to the Big 4 stair set and start to make a run when some other rent-a-cops rolled up and told us to sit down. By this time I'm freaked out that I'm gonna get a $250 fine. So he takes the names of the five other skaters that are Mexican and gives them $250-dollar tickets, while me and my friend--both white--roll away ticketless. I'm stoked we did not get a ticket, but damn that racist cop, Just because I'm white and so was he doesn't mean he should treat us better. Who does he think he is, kicking skaters out of the Big 4 spot that has been ours from the beginning of its making?
