For skateboarders, the University of California is a cement paradise. There are signs saying they can only skate on Saturday, Sunday, and holidays. David was skateboarding on a holiday and a police officer warned that wrote a ticket to one of his friends. The cop treated David like he was a criminal. There is no place to skateboard besides skate parks and they are too crowded. Cities need to change their unfair treatment of skateboarders. Many adults probably don’t think skateboarders deserve to be treated fairly but they are normal people. The skateboarders aren’t going away, so cities are going to have to make room for them somewhere. They should design skate parks and be designed by skateboarders so that they are skater-friendly and safe to ride.

Fallacies:

Appeal to Ignorance:

Definition: An assumption must be true if it cannot be proved false.

Ex. 1: If I were stupid, then I would know about it by now. I don't know that I'm stupid. Therefore, I'm not stupid.

Ex. 2: If monsters exist, there would be true evidence. There is no evidence. Therefore, monsters don't exist. media type="custom" key="24853260" This commercial does not have false facts and it can be proven that Crest toothpaste can make you have a great smile and whiten teeth. media type="custom" key="24853302" This commercial about Bounty paper towels is true and does not have any false material in it that can be proven false..
