It's hard to tell exactly but I think enough people have seen this to declare the kid shot his board out under the high bicycle of a Trump supporter either the day of or days following Trump's arrest in NYC. So just days ago. How is this acceptable behavior, and to the point where a highly praised legendary brand like Baker promotes this? Or is a violent act like this OK, because 99% of skateboarders hate Republicans, and violence against someone they disagree with is not only acceptable but encouraged?

Thoughts on how this would this play out if it were a Republican taking down a Biden supporter at a rally of some kind? It's interesting to me how skateboarding today is all about "diversity" and "inclusivity" and accepting all yet there seems to be a general one way of thinking in the skateboarding world, at least in the US, which is very much left leaning. And if you don't agree, you're cancelled.

My take is it's wrong, and messed up they'd post this. One thing for it to have gone down just while on their trip, another to post and promote it. Jamie Foy also posted it.

It was hilarious. Anybody who is into any politician enough to dress from head to toe in said politicians propaganda deserves at least as much. Left or right, doesn't matter.

Also, I hope you're never exposed to any skate videos from earlier than like 2012. Especially tour videos. All sorts of stuff in them that will offend you I'm sure.

Yeah, that was fucked up.  You can’t just attack someone because they have a different political opinion than you.  Pretty simple.
When nothing in society deserves respect, we should fashion for ourselves in solitude new silent loyalties.

Trump is doing rally’s in Waco playing videos of the Jan 6 riot.  Seems he might disagree

I hear Baker will issue an apology because that was actually Dan Van Der Linden on the bike/costume.

Ugh this take is so dumb and I’m sick of hearing it.

“Oh yeah if we want to consider our community inclusive, we have to welcome all viewpoints.“ So if your viewpoint is hateful, racist, and xenophobic, we have to embrace and accept you in the name of inclusivity? Fuck outta here with that shit.

Any one this fucking stupid deserves what they got. In the words of so many maga folk. Okay stupid games with stupid prizes. Dressing like a dork to shout how you love a politician. Any politician you deserve some backlash. Also looking at skateboarders on Insta I don’t think 99% of skateboarders hate republicans because there’s weirdly a lot of republican or very conservative takes from skateboarders. All politicians are crooks and pieces of shit. But trump is a fucking con man born with a silver spoon in his mouth and got to fucking lazy and got caught running his grift. Fuck trump fuck the gullible maga clowns too. Before we get into it fuck Biden. They ain’t my homies.

This one was classic. The fact that he put his hand out and said "No, its fine!" right before he gets smoked coupled with him wearing the the band on the wrong arm is just too hilarious to not point out.

so you're telling me this guy thought it was a good idea to put on all that J6 qanon shaman trump gear and bike down the street yelling pro-trump slogans at a black man - "as a joke" - and somehow didn't expect it to gloriously backfire on him? dude is absolutely fucking fried either way and fully deserved it

I was a big fan of the crying afterwards, and the ensuing victim complex.
