Tennis snobs try to stop skate park

| 4 Comments

dirtyfrog.gifLock up yer daughters!

It's been brought to our attention here at Globaleyes that a proposed skate park in Bushy Park Dublin is meeting objections from a small number of members of Tennis Ireland.

Chavalanche!

Allegedly, certain members object to the skatepark. Quite why is not exactly known, but we suspect that it has a lot to do with the notion of hordes of great sweaty teenagers taking the 49 or 65 from Tallaght down to the skate park.

What's the problem?

Skate parks have been used with great social effect in Britain to combat teenage delinquency. Scottish authorities have been singing their praises for years and the police forces back them up by telling us that skate parks reduce delinquency wherever they are built.

Somebody get me an ASBO!

It would appear that SS officer Von Goosestep McDowell is not the only one to have a problem with teenagers: it now appears that rich tennis-playing fuckwits have taken to printing leaflets outlining the horrifying threat that pubescent teenagers with lumps of wood on wheels now pose to their life and limb.

I can only assume that after looting their homes, the skatefucks will then proceed to rape every woman in 30 miles, ransack every house and eat every dog they can lay their hands on.

A council meeting tonight should see an end to this idiocy. We'll keep you posted.

Anyone going along to the council meeting?

a friend was there last night. apparently some old biddy jumped up and down screaming that teenagers had cycled past her and kicked her dog. because of this incident she objected to the skatepark.

i'm not making this up.

i'll have a reoprt on the outcome of the meeting later when i get an update.

Kicked her dog? You couldn't make this shit up.

Check out the brand new website for the skatepark in Bushy park Sth Dublin. Check out the design, most importantly SIGN THE ONLINE PETITION and contact the councillors who will be deciding if the park gets built. DO IT NOW!!! The next few weeks are crucial, if this and other skateparks are to be built we need to show that there is real support for public skateparks in Ireland.
