Saw way too many "it was just a skateboard, that kid didn't have to shoot him" posts. Please, my old razortailed Eric Dressen with Indy's was a deadly weapon. Skates being hard pressed layered maple, aluminum trucks, and those axle threads setting the way they do in wheel bearings kept the jocks and kooks at bay.
Yeah I think a lot of these people haven't handled an actual fucking skateboard, maybe a K-Mart special but if they're made out of quality parts they're pretty fucking heavy and they're not just gonna snap over someone's head like balsa wood. I'd put a skateboard right up there with a fuckin' bat if someone is determined to use it as a weapon.
