I have taken, and am still taking, many Psychology and Sociology courses. This is in no way harmful anti-social behaviour. The only reason it is classified as anti-social is because it does not follow with societies mores (virtues/norms). In simple terms, parkour is different. Something new that society has not seen before, and it scares certain groups of people. It empowers people to exercise freedom of movement. It changes our mindset over time, to become more free. And then they lose control.

It's a sport they shouldn't band it footballs a sport as well and they don't go dancing that so why band free running/parkour.

I like how the reporters aren't narrow minded, and respect the parkour communinty. Too bad parkour is associated with crime. People don't like it because they don't know what to think. So when removed from somewhere, do it respectfully. Say "I'm sorry for the misunderstanding, it's part of a global sport called parkour. I meant no harm, and I respect what you're feeling". The person will probably smile and say, "Be careful!" but banning it is RIDICULUS!
