Skateboarders in California cleared sand from a skate park in Venice, after the City of Los Angeles dumped the gritty substance throughout to discourage its use during the coronavirus lockdown.
Footage on Sunday showed several skateboarders shoveling out loads of sand, clearing out entire sections of the park, in defiance of the city’s order.

The act of defiance comes mere days after viral footage showed a bulldozer contracted by the Los Angeles Department of Parks and Recreation distributing sand throughout the park.

“We’ve had continuous violators … and we want them to stop,” a spokesperson said at the time. “We want them to follow the orders because the skate parks are closed until further notice. It’s for the health and wellness of all L.A. residents.”
The city is evidently unaware of the rebellious nature of skateboard culture. (

At the Battle of Thermopylae the Spartans boldly announced to Xerxes I when he demanded the Greeks surrender their weapons, was Molon Labe.
And when Texians at The Battle of Gonzales were ordered by the Mexicans to surrender the cannon that was provided for their defense against Indian raids in 1835. ;)

Probably the same issue as before where the text area box where the tag line is edited is too long. Screws up some browsers for some reason.
