It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

I guess there are some cities where it could be used but 95% of the nation there isn't anywhere you can ride one legally.
What are you talking about as of right now only LA, SF, NY and Honolulu ban scooters of all cities in the entire US. They are littered across my city in the thousands.
I'm talking of the total land. They're illegal on most non-urban roads in the US. Hell I live in a suburb of a major city and I can't ride one, let alone rural places.
