Well, I could be wrong about this, but isn't that the whole point of watching skateboarding

It's crazy that what was once basically delinquent behavior has been sanitized to an Olympic sport.

Baseball and Softball should be permanently added back to the Olympics instead of Skateboarding.

For that matter, they should also add bowling and cheerleading.

If someone came towards you with a gun, and they slipped on ice and got knocked out, you would not be happy?

Fine, I how about this variant of the statement:
Its never ok to be happy when others get an injury unless the person who got the injury was going to harm others, and said injury specifically stopped them.
