The owens are vulcs but the early models didn't have the traditional bumper over the wrap? Something like that.

Edit: haha just saw your mention @notmikerusczyk I thought you were genuinely asking me lol

"tell me mr lotties, when you told these kids to avoid the park, weren't you in fact 'not keeping it real, feel me, on God??? NO FURTHER QUESTIONS!"

Long time lurker, just created a profile.
Huge fan of slap. shalom, ya’ll.

This is what is aggravating as hell.
I don’t think you realize the liability exposure and responsibility of the shop owner.
To have a literal gang jumping children and ripping clothes off of people PLUS a pseudo-celebrity condoning this behavior (focusing the shit out of all of your product) you as the shop owner and an adult in general, could face punishment.

To put it into perspective, the shop owner is knowingly selling children products (boards and shirts) that will get them jumped, robbed and naked with the business name splattered all over it. Think if a kid gets beat to death. Who will the family lawyers go after? The blood gang? Hell no, the guy with the money and liability.

You as a shop owner gets a call from the kid opening up. He says he doesn’t feel safe going in. Lurkers are everywhere and there is news of kids getting jumped because of associations to your business.
To say, “hell no, get your bitch ass in that store and sell some dlx and baker” Now puts the burden of that kids well-being into your hands. Anything that happens from that point is on you. The mob breaks that kids arm... your paying that bill, bud.

The courts are ugly and ruthless as hell especially when you put morals (protecting children) under personal gain (keep your business running).

Depending on how the business was setup, the shop owner could be personally held responsible for any damages or bodily harm. Think if a kid ending up in a coma! Lotties might be able to absorb that him personally? No way.

This has no basis in reality. Nike doesn’t get sued when some kid gets robbed for his rare Jordans. The shop would never be held legally responsible because someone got violent over a t-shirt. If this got to a judge, they’d dismiss a claim like this with prejudice.

I’m a corporate attorney. Shut up.

No one’s buying this

Then it shouldn't be hard for you to come up with some instances of something like this actually happening.

[close]

It’s not hard at all. My time is billable though.. jk.
Brother I’ve sued and have been sued for less.
True.
Most of these cases will never make it to court.
 A judge couldn’t care less. Honestly, I couldnt care less half the time but I would have an absolute field day as a families attorney suing a lotties right now.
Especially if that kid was told to open the shop got himself tore up in the parking AFTER stating that he felt unsafe.

It’s the real world. I hate it and I’m sorry but that’s the reality of liability claims.

If this is totally unrealistic then you should have no problem pointing to cases similar to this that have been so prejudicially dismissed... am I right?

lol this “lawyer” is unfamiliar with the burden of proof. Keep digging, buddy!

And here is another one. Someone else trying to knick pick how I spend my time and my life.
I think one of the first replies was that “I couldn’t care less half the time”.

It's "nitpick," you dolt.

Come on, hotshot, what's the theory of the case where you would "have a field day suing Lottie's"?  Just give us a little taste of your scintillating legal acumen and mastery of "liability."

[close]

I thought you didn’t care? I thought I had your permission to kook it all over the place?

“I would Have a field day...” why did you feel the need to jump on me for this?
Are you trying to cool guy me? Your obviously cool as shit if I can’t even express my opinion.. from my perspective, in your presence.

Guess what, if I had a hot air balloon I would really enjoy flying it. The time of my life actually.
Prior to, should I submit to you my theory of thermal dynamics and what will keep me in the air?

Tell me, oh expert skateboard messaging board messiah, do I need to submit to you my theory of physics before I heelflip again?

Guys like you man, guys like you.

they don’t teach u the diff between you’re and your at georgetown ?

Most of the locals in South LA agree. Y'all just not from here and can't look past the "cool" vans collabs. Go get your boards from Neighbors. They the real deal.

I’ve been following this thread the whole time and still couldn’t tell you exactly what is happening. It’s like when someone tells a bad joke and you hear the punchline, but then you’re like “nah that cant be the punchline that’s not really funny” and you’re not sure if you got the joke or not.

Same.

All that I can gather is that Nak was mad at Lotties for not supporting the LA skate scene (which is weird because it seemed like they were), his boys ripped a Lotties hoodie on Instagram, Lotties shut down claiming it’s  because of safety issues (which also sounds weird because it seems like you don’t need much of a reason to get your ass beat in LA in general, so wtf increased danger is Lotties in?) Something about blacks vs Latinos prison politics, Julius Randles poor playoff performance, E3 Xbox predictions...

I don’t fucking know, just find it funny that the one time it probably makes sense for Jason Dill to talk he’s hella ghost lol.

[VHS ERA]

So any truth to the claim that Lotties was using his money and real estate connections to block the new shop?

Palisades sucks so bad.

Have to go out there for work from time to time and the "fuck you peasant" air is thick enough to cut with a fancy charcuterie knife.

Live in Pali and run a shop in West Adams and are surprised when the locals sniff that shit out?
