Randle Bane had been skateboarding in the city pool all winter. On Christmas Day, Officer Brady was driving by and saw Mr. Bane doing some serious hang-time in the deep end below the high dive. When Officer Brady approached him and asked him to come to the sidewalk, Randle replied that the neighbors often watched and cheered, and the owners had not complained. Officer Brady told Randle that he could no longer use the city pool as a skate park. Two days later, Randle wore a T-Shirt with "I'll skate where I want" scrawled in marker across the front and back and returned to his normal skating routine. He defied Officer Brady, and he was arrested. This is an example of what type of deviation?

Question

Randle Bane's actions represent secondary deviation, as his behavior (skateboarding in the city pool) led to societal reaction (arrest by Officer Brady), and he responded to this reaction by further deviating from societal norms (defiantly returning to skate in the pool). This cycle of act, societal reaction, and further deviation aligns with the concept of secondary deviation.
