I don’t know how I’d bet with this one. I don’t keep up with the latest fads. Do black kids use skateboards? I’ve never seen that. But like I said, I don’t keep up with the latest fads.
The pattern is what Blacks do and I’m with you on the skateboard thing, but the silence of the media usually means blacks as well.
Of course, blacks use skateboards. They use BMX bicycles, dirt bikes, and 4-wheelers, too. They just use them in different, inappropriate ways.
I wondered that, too. When I read “ran away,” I thought maybe. White boys would skate away. Maybe teens are taking a page from antifa’s playbook...”It’s not a weapon; it’s a skateboard.” Same reason some of the homeless carry screwdrivers.
