Most travel modes have a downside. For example, car and suv drivers routinely speed through pedestrian crossings and kill large numbers of pedestrians.
Scooters may be annoying, but at least they aren't deadly.
Just because you've banned scooters doesn't mean the morons operating them went away, or stopped traveling.
And I'd much rather deal with a moron on a scooter than a moron in a car. I'd daresay that statistics on both deaths and injuries caused by alternative modes of transportation are with me on this.
I mean, I get it. Scooters are a little scary and annoying and take up space. People don't like them.
All these same criticisms apply for cars, but dialed up to 11.

Please stop whitewashing incidents and the behavior of the scooterists.
