It was almost the perfect Sunday Skate Session that everyone was hoping for: the weather turned out, the grills were on site, the skating was going off. Things were just getting warmed up when we noticed a few cop cars across the street. From the looks of things a super rich yuppie was out for a Sunday drive in his $80,000 convertible Mercedes. Only problem was he was drunk and pulled over. And so, as the normal order of things go, it doesn’t take just one or two cops to arrest some guy. It takes at least 4 or 5 cars with about 8 to 10 cops to do it. The rest of the story is probably easy to figure out. 10 cops standing around + a bunch of kids skating = busted. The cops were being “nice” that day and not issuing citations. O’ lucky day! Never fear though, next Sunday we’ll be back. Moral of the story: drunk driving doesn’t just affect the driver, it affects the whole community.
