I deleted it because of the SOME..(NOT ALL)..replies were TOTALLY uncalled for...for instance...MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS!...you AREN'T here to see what I have seen this kid do and the way he drives that stupid thing! If you all like those contraptions..that is your choice to do so and it is MY choice NOT to like them! Someone is going to get HURT OR KILLED and at least I know in my heart that we have tried to stop someone from being hurt or killed..including the kid himself!! I had no idea they were LEGAL period!! and that is why I asked the question! I CERTAINLY DID NOT DESERVE THE BASHING SOME OF YOU GAVE ME! And as far as the member getting a LAUGH when people have a pff with a board they belong to...are you going to LAUGH if I post that a cop came to a parents house next door to tell them their kid got KILLED by this kid's carelessness??? I WON'T LAUGH..I LOVE KIDS AND AM WORRIED ABOUT THEM! THERE ARE GREAT KIDS WHO LIVE BY US WHO I CARE ALOT ABOUT!!! I know cops have alot BETTER things to do, but, I am CONCERNED!! As far as talking to thiS kid..how do you know this kid hasn't been talked to about it! I have 2 neighbors who live right by me and they are concerned also!! The kid has been talked to MANY TIMES around here for your information! and if you think I am going to get up at 2 am to talk to this kid..YOU ARE MISTAKEN! This kid has been talked to!!! HE DOESN'T GIVE A RAT'S A_S!!
First off...being told to mind your own business is "totally uncalled for?" Yikes.
Secondly, to the bolded, your basic statement implies that my choice is rendered moot and irrelevant by YOUR choice. (I see that when you refer to me the letters are not capitalized but every letter is capitalized when you refer to yourself.) In fact...you are so sure of your opinion that you have reached out to the police department to enforce your own agenda. Insane. And insanely self-absorbed.
I don't buy the "kid in danger" thing. I think you just don't like that kid riding around on that deal, it annoys you, and you're looking for an irrefutable debating point to push your argument over the top. The ol' "think of the children!" bit. It's been around for a good while now.
More than anything, I am SUPER tired of people who think they're in a position to tell others how to live their lives. You clearly haven't even considered the possibility that you might be incorrect in your reasoning. Your last two sentences give away your true feelings and the real source of your ire though, namely, an indifference to your opinion and will. I think that bothers you more than anything.
All of that said, I'm sorry I added the GD to my original statement. To be perfectly frank, I stand by the rest of what I said. I honestly think you might want to reconsider the context of what I said: its good advice. Live your life to the fullest instead of trying to dictate the way that other people live. The GD thing added an unnecessary element of nastiness, and for that I apologize. I wasn't trying to ruin your day...although your reaction to being disagreed with was...slightly alarming? Anyway, I hope there are no hard feelings. I sure don't wish you any ill will...at all. I just disagree with your position. As is my right.
Take care.
