I see some folks trying to convince us that skin heads are all like grandma with cookies. Well if they are so friendly towards all races why don't I see some black skinheads roaming the beat with you?

Comments: They are traditional skinheads who stand for working class culture not race and stem from the U.K skinheads before Neo-Nazi's hijacked the culture based around ska and Jamaican rude boy culture
You've been watching too many National Geographic documentaries. That's probably how those sloppy minded teens from Florida might do it but not the serious folks.

Comments: You know not all are bad. It all depends on who it is and what group you get into.
Kim, the fact that you use such words as "bad" and "depends" does not give them any greater support as a "nice" group. Any group that establishes itself based on a color or lack thereof already sets itself up for serious implications in the minds of those who view it from the outside.

Skin heads is a group that is not much different than the neo-nazis. You might have a group here and there that have fallen from the main group, but the main group is infact hell bent on destroying "mud colored people".
You have to understand that these groups are trying to have a more politically correct view for obvious reasons. Many of the followers are clean cut, speak well, and blend in.
They are dangerous and think they are doing God's bidding. Don't be fooled by these antics. They are full of hate and will kill you when they get the chance. Mud colored people to them are not human and are viewed as a parasite. They don't even consider it murder. They are just waiting for " the great day" to come.
I don't like the kill whitey groups either, but the skinheads/other groups are just as bad if not worse. And no offence to anyone, but they are on average smarter and more determined than most other hate groups.
Skinheads/nazis/kkk all get along very well and recruiting goes largely unchallenged by the government now. It is also exponentially on the rise.
I am sympathetic to the young people that get involved with this movement. They themselves feel oppressed and forgotten for some good reasons, but I strongly encourage people to stay away from such an evil destructive movement.
There are plenty of good church and civic groups that would gladly accept you and put up with your understandable anger and frustrations. These hate groups are not the answer and solve nothing.
I believe that inside every good organization (church and civic groups) there is a person or 2 that can and will help with troubled people of any caliber. You all might be surprised at how diversified some of these organizations are. Perhaps even God sent.
