Brian - A bad kid?


This has been bugging me for years. His father made him out to be a juvenile delinquent and Brian said things that suggested everyone around him thought so too. Even Lucero treated him as if he was a criminal low-life half the time. Based on what we actually saw, he didn't really seem any worse than your average teenager. Was his "badness" greatly exaggerated?.

I think that it was Brian's "I don't care about anything" attitude that began to alienate his parents, he didn't really care about much besides skating. Plus, when they adopted Vin it alienated him from everyone else even moreso because Vin was a great student and was goal oriented, so Brian became even more rebellious.

He wasn't "bad" perse', but he didn't have a good attitude either, he was also a bit of an antisocial. It took Vin's murder to make him see the light and try to change himself.

That's just how skaters were viewed by most people back then. In the eighties, it wasn't a sport, it was just shy of being a criminal act.

Ah, yes "Officer" Rivieri. That so-called cop isn't fit to guard a mall. If the most heinous crime that was being commited in that city was a bunch of kids skating, then perhaps I could understand. If I were a criminal, I'd laugh my ass off watching videos like this, safe in the knowledge that cops have nothing better to do than harrass children.

"Why do you say this to me when you know I will kill you for it?"
