Mike V Downtown Showdown scuffle?

[masturskater]

His wife and daughter weren't standing in the middle of a group of people waiting for the products to be tossed.

whoa my mistake

....still.  unintentional act turns into overblown personal beef with mike v's fist

[kneebone]

Let me take that back, you guys would take the passive aggressive approach, and wait till you got home and start a thread here making all kinds of claims and name calling.

This place needs to be shut down.

you're presenting the two extreme choices...most people would take the rational, sane approach of just talking it out on the spot, and not immediately debasing themselves to either fists or keyboards.

[heckler]

We should sacrifice Mike V.

[MexicanSpaniard]

If any of you dorks had a wife and a daughter and some idiot put in danger you would handle things.

I believe the idiot in this case is mike v for taking them there. He should punch himself.

[Waiting]

Rational?  If you don't have a wife or a child I can see how you wouldn't get it.  What might help those that don't.  Say your mom is at a demo your skating in, to watch.  Some guy throws stuff at her, when she isn't even near where a product toss is supposed to happen.  You mom is shook up.

Your telling me your going to walk up to the person that was acting careless and like an idiot and hold his hand and hug it out?  I doubt it.  If you are of the means, your going to school the fool.

No, i'd actually just walk over to the person and say "hey, what the fuck are you doing? watch where you're throwing that stuff", and they'd probably say "oh, ok, sorry man, i wasn't trying to hurt anybody"

see? no fists, no fights, and no thread on the slap MB with people arguing who weren't even there.  whether i have kids or not makes no difference.  i look out for my friends just the same as i would my girl, my mom, or any potential children...and myself.  sure, there's the potential that the product tosser is also a dick and was actually trying to hurt people or start beef, but given MV's track record, i highly doubt that was the case here...

[MexicanSpaniard]

Why are you defending mike v for bringing a child to a contest?

[biggums mcgee]

cause he's someone else who has an uncontrolable temper

[Waiting]

""oh, ok, sorry man, i wasn't trying to hurt anybody"

You must live in the burbs. 

[MexicanSpaniard]

""oh, ok, sorry man, i wasn't trying to hurt anybody"

You must live in the burbs. 

Pretty sure that's where mike v came from.

[RevertEverything]

""oh, ok, sorry man, i wasn't trying to hurt anybody"

You must live in the burbs. 

What the hell does that mean?

Where do you live Bogata, Columbia? Thunderdome?

Most people in the skateboard industry (and sane, level headed individuals) aren't involved to cause malicious violence to women and children, and when confronted by the fact that they (accidentally) did would most likely be apologetic, regardless of the where they live. Not lash out in stupid aggression.

I have to break it to you most "rational" people don't immediately resort to violence.

[masturskater]

""oh, ok, sorry man, i wasn't trying to hurt anybody"

You must live in the burbs. 

what the fuck is that supposed to mean?

according to the story here the guy apoligized, but mike v HAD to go and take it personally.

everyone makes mistakes.  they throw or kick their board out and sometimes it slips and goes where they weren't expecting.  they didn't mean anything by it.  it didn't hurt mike v's wife or daughter, so everything turned out all right.  so why not just leave it at that?  cause mike v's an insecure prick

....there.  i said it

[biggums mcgee]

you guys are really trying to argue pacificism against someone who is an ex-cop and hates this place? get outta here!

[Waiting]

1.  None of you have a first hand account.

2. None of you have any concept of the real world.  You come here talk shit about people you don't know personally, or you come here to blow people you think you know.

3. 90% of you don't have the means to handle anything physically, that is why your on here with the cover repping.

[MexicanSpaniard]

Was it combat or a contest?

[danker peaches]

I have really big arms that i use to punch shit.

[Baby Rabies]

Hey Mic-E, why do you post here if all you ever have to say is how lame this place is and what a bunch of cowardly nerds we all are? Doesn't that make you feel kinda pathetic if all you can do in your free time is hang out here and post how you want everybody to know you think it's kinda gay? Jesus, if I lived in SF and I had your job then I sure as hell would be trying to find something better to do.

[Blue Fescue]

So in Mike V's what, 20 years of product tosses he has only thrown decks into designated areas where everyone was aware of the risk and had legally consented to them?

[Perfection]

Mike V fondled me at a demo in the early 90's, but I turned out alright so it's OK.

[Silent Bob.]

shits funny. Mike v is a cunt, many people have wised up to this - after all when you have a long history of being a cunt people wise up to the fact. Personally I've thought he is a cunt ever since he attacked the inge family at Northampton simply because they wouldn't let him cut in front of everyone else at the food que. Pathetic, and he hasn't proved me wrong since. He might be a legend, but he is also a sellout and a cunt. Fuck him, yours sincerely a skater for 20 years who knows a cunt when he sees one xxxx

I'm guessing you did.....

[alienlurkshop]

stu graham and mike v need to get into a fight

[Mark Snappleyard]

Mic-E would go and do some shit like defend Mike V.

I'm pretty sure we all live in a realer world than Mike V. does.  In our world, there's a thing called consequences.  Real people can't afford to hit everyone they are mad at because real people don't get paid thousands of dollars to do handplants.  Real people know how to use words because real people aren't cavemen.

1) Violence in general is wrong.
2) Mike Vallely made a video of himself fighting
3) Mike Vallely swore off fighting after that video
4) Mike V. then gets in a fight over an apparent accident
5) The guy apologizes (which was stupid, fuck that shit, he didn't deserve to be hit) and Mike V can't say appologize for being a violent meathead?
 1+2+3+4+5= Mike V. is a stupid violent meathead who can't get over being a teenager.
Seriously, who actually gets into fights after they are over the age of 15 or so?

What fucking trash. He makes the video to brag about him as a violent asshole who likes to hurt other people, who he usually barely even knows. Great example from the guy who claims to be "doing it for the kids." Then he says its a bad idea, and soon afterwards is beating up a random again. Great role model! If that is your only role now Mike, hang your shit up, you have disgraced yourself AND YOUR FAMILY.

I think the 2 of us are in agreement for the first time.

[MexicanSpaniard]

Damn, if like Gipper or not you have to give him 'spot on' agreement there.

[Home Skillet]

Mike V has turned into 1 random ock.

[drowe1]
