IT OUT!

(for those of you who don't know what the 17017 is it is the law they passed in guelph ontario wich prevents skaters from skating anywhere but the skatepark and if those rules are breeched you get fined $50)

I was talking to my friend the other day about the 17017 and he said that when he went to skate the guelph outdoor park a cop came up to him and told him to leave, if you ask me that is a load of crap because since they passed the 17017 we are only able to sk8 the skatepark and i geuss we aren't able to that any more either. This law is totally unfair and should never have been passed in the first place, they are more worried about skaters skating downtown then the drug dealers or thieves in the city of guelph. SKATEBOARDING IS NOT A CRIME so why are they so focused on stopping us from what we love to do rather than stopping the bigger problems???

I had another friend who was just skating down the road to get to school a little faster and a cop came up to him and was going to fine him with the 17017 on his birthday wich was also valentines day what a good way to show the love not just that but the cop lied to him and told him that the fine was $1028!!!!


THIS LAW SHOULD NOT EXIST
