Did People Doubt That Skateboards Could Be Weapons?

Apparently someone said it "was only a skateboard," about a certain incident in Kenosha, and that comment gained some acceptance. Man dies after being hit in head with skateboard during fight in Santa Ana Starbucks - ABC7 Los Angeles

A man was killed after being hit in the head with a skateboard in an act of self-defense during a fight in a Santa Ana Starbucks.

Anyone who didn't think a skateboard would be a good weapon hasn't ever seen one, and they really haven't been paying attention to the Antifa/BLM/whatever "fighters" in Portland, Seattle, and elsewhere. It is a favorite weapon.

A piece of hardwood plywood (something like maple) ½ inch to ¾ inch by 5 or 6 inches by 2 feet or more. Much more if it's a longboard. And it will have some bits of metal screwed to each end. If you get hit with the edge, I would say that could do some damage.

Oh, and in a Self-defense situation, use whatever weapon you have available.
