I think how one acts is a reflection on how they were raised and has little to do with what sport they play.
My best friends and I (all skaters) were very respectful to everyone and enjoyed the challenge of skateboarding. It teaches you physical toughness and mental dedication.
I will say all of the skating in my youth has prob been bad for some of my body parts: (Knees) @ 40yo, but at the same time... most likely helped to keep me slim.
