I read the after-edit original post, and was absolutely befuddled. Three youths on Stingrays, harassing MUP users? I had immediate thoughts of some real 1950s-type toughs... you know, hi-top Converse, leather jackets, one of 'em probably has a switchblade comb.
I don't live in anything resembling a proper city, it's just endless urban sprawl for 80 miles to the Pacific Ocean. So this whole tale of woe is simply bizarre.
