Throughout the years, skateboarders have made a name for themselves being badasses in the community. They were always the punks who went out looking for trouble. Now that's just the stereotype that is put on skateboarders. A good amount are doing it at a professional level and the ones who aren't there yet are striving to be. It is very difficult to progress in something you love whenever you go out you get hassled by police, security, or just crazy, stuck up people we have in our world today. They overlook that we might be filming a trick, learning a new trick, or skating around town. It's a common misconception that we have learned to deal with. Were not all bad kids, a lot of us come from normal family like yours, the only difference is we found our passion in skateboarding. Here are some videos with evidence that we are prejudged and stereotype just from the pure sport that we take part in.
