I live in Boulder, Co... a leftover of every type of extremist view from anywhere. We have punkers... very congizant and concerned punkers. Some of them even go with little hair. Many of the marinoid/toughos also go with little hair on top. The true Whitey-Skinheads have distinctive groups and sometimes tatoos to make their firey temper more easily perceived. I can usually recognize the difference. YOU who would defend the "skinheads" you describe from this Horde of Useneters should verily get up and explain yourself. Claiming "CONSPIRATORIAL PROPOGANDA FROM THE LEFT" is just as bad as saying nothing at all... for us non-affiliates or centroids. Calls for Explanations are much more profitable than Calls OF Speculation. I personally agree that there are a "Type" of skinheads which deserve all the slime dropped on them as is possible... but that is only where they already haven't acheived slimy acts themselves. If you verily do have some HUUGE difference from the Other Guys... say it and rebuke them with us... what do they take and become "extremists" with.. whereas you guyz simply look to them as childishly overzealous? Expliquez, s'il vous plait. ### C>H> ### { uunet!rutgers!sunybcs , ncar , nbires } !boulder!tramp!hassell
