RIP Bordertown

This is really about so much more than skateboarding.

7 years of hard work and skaters' own money gone in a couple hours. Now it can go back to being a wasteland of drugs and guns. Thanks again, CalTrans.

It's a total bummer, but thanks to the nature of skateboarding and skateboards, another DIY spot will take it's place, and another, and another. They win the battles, we win the war.
