…Or try sitting in Maricopa county jail/”horseshoe” and trying to explain to a bunch of cholos and felony offenders you got picked up a warrant for skatebaording.

Never ever pay a skateboarding ticket. In like ol’ Rebel Skates days; (1987?) like 10 of us all got stopped and given $375 tickets! But Funny as anything; when Nick Clark told the cops; “Don’t you know? My Dad is the Mayor?…” Later I said to Nick; “what’s with taking our boards; because they don’t confiscate the shoes of jaywalkers!” …and a week later the Mayor said the same thing on tv! I went to jail for a week in 1990; in Boulder;Co. for not paying a ticket…Sheriff comes down to see me in jail upon hearing about it; “what are you doing in my jail? It costs us $60 a day to keep you in here…”

I’m back! Either legal or punk rock, and I’m all over it! Well, that and I got a reputation at work for looking at too much Perez Hilton.

You’re back! Long time no read. I guess it just takes a legal matter.

I’ve never heard of anyone being jailed over fifty dollars, or even a hundred. It might be different in the north. Generally if you are unresponsive to notices to pay, they might issue a warrant if it’s worth anyone’s time. It’s like being arrested over parking tickets, and five days is very excessive (unless, of course, you are a repeat offender, i.e. dining and dashing every meal because you’re homeless). It’s too bad Canada taxes their citizens so much, because I’m sure they actually have the space to make him serve the entire five days. PDX would probably have you serve a couple hours max. VIVA LA RESISTANCE!

Can you imagine that coming up at a job interview: HR: It says here you went to jail for five days. Can you elaborate on that? Kid: I was skateboarding on a public street. HR: Well it was nice talking to you. Don’t call us. We’ll call you.
