Try getting a skinhead to actually admit he's racist first. Or doesn't like Jewish people. Or black people. I've run into a few people who insist it's just a fashion genre.
I've only read the thread up to this post but I want to say that having a shaved head doesn't mean your racist. I know of people who are going bald pretty young and would rather just shave it all off than have patches of hair. Other people might do it because the don't want to bother with hair. Also in this economy think of the money you would save on shampoo(jk on that one). I may be misreading what you said but it seems your judging someone on their appearance, which is exactly what racists do, and such a comment seems unlike you Shane.
Wow, blast from the past a la mode.
Except I never mentioned just a shaved head (besides y'know 'skinhead'). Skinheads have a more specific way of finding them out than just a shaved head.
While there may be some skinheads that stay with the
original definition more often than not you've run into a racist.
If you run into a guy wearing combat trousers (most often camouflage), along with a white tank top (sometimes it is black or olive green) or a regular white, black, olive green t-shirt, and suspenders then a cabbie hat, finished off with black combat boots then you have run into the racist version of a skinhead. They also may or may not have a flight jacket on (don't want their arms getting cold or to hide their racist/white power tats).
This is, of course, from general experience as well as what I've seen on the various neo-nazi/skinhead sites that I have the displeasure of running into thanks to looking at the mainpage.
I never thought I'd have to explain this two months later.
You're also assuming I'm judging right off the bat from what I see someone wearing. No. It has to do with a lot of factors that I wish not to explain right now.
