How many people in this thread does this affect directly right now? I mean, how many of you live or regularly train right now? Mark is offering to help them and their are a lot of influential traceurs in Florida. We really don't need to do anything yet. All a bunch of random kids would do is get in the way of real negotiations. If they decide to make a petition then sign it unless it's only for locals then don't.

What you should be talking about is not what to do about this. (it's being worked on) Instead talk about how to prevent it from happening where you live.   

I was looking for more what we should do if this spreads out past where it's at now. I see where I went wrong in writing that.

were not just a bunch of random kids were the parkour community and just because were not afected directly by this doesent mean we shouldnt try to help

I know that and you know that but the mayor would just think of us as a bunch of random punks or adults in a early midlife crisis because she doesn't view us as atheletes. I agree we should help but only when its needed. And only If they ask for it. Right now there is nothing any of us can do that would help. No matter how you or I dislike it we have to wait until there is something to do.

A good question and a good statement. It would be more likely to be answered if you pm'd m2 and asked him to comment on this thread

Find a post by M2. Then under their karma their is a txt bubble like in a comic if you scroll over that it should say send personal message. Click it and bam.  Thats the easiest way for me.

I have a friend who's cousin does parkour in Florida. I'll ask him if his cousin is effected by this. I don't think he is though
If you ask me to run, I won't. If you ask me to be myself, I wont stop running.

Not all of Fl is affected... Otherwise, yours truly would be severely pissed off.

Protecting rights is important whether it's yours or another person's.  But if we are taking an approach it should be professional, and verbally non-violent.
