    How do you know they were skin heads? Were they bald men in doc martins? Did you see Bob Mould?

    Couldn't tell if they were the racist kind but I've never seen them around here before so I didn't stick around to find out.

    People please be aware. :roll:
    There is such a thing as Straight Edge. Look it up. Not saying they are, but you're making a judgement call just on appearance.

    Would love to see the outrage if you would have said there are a bunch of black guys and kids who looked ghetto on 7th ave. I love how you're allowed to say stuff about white people and get away with it, but all hell breaks loose if you say it about blacks.

    Incidentally, I heard about a guy getting beaten up by a "gang" of skinheads on 5th Ave outside Royale about a month ago. Having lived here for a while and not really seen any skinheads I was skeptical, but since then it has been confirmed by a couple people I know that are friends of one of the bartenders at Royale.

    Scary.

    yah. I find this post really offensive.

    If you see a group of people harassing people, that's one thing...just seeing a group of people dressed/looking a certain way does not mean they are up to no good.

    I see a bunch of teenage girls with shirts so short I can see their chonies. Usually in front of Holy Name church. In uniforms. Does this mean there is a gang of school girl prostitutes? ;-)

    Yeah it's pretty mean to assume just because the Rogaine didn't work and a couple buddies went the shaving route that they are skinheads.

    Is being a skinhead outside of the nationalistic white thing still popular? I thought that died back in the late '80's when Black Flag broke up and WFMU changed formats. Geez, nezt thing you'll tell me is that Metal is going strong.

    I figured you were an iron worker from Dyker Heights who made it big and bought a limestone on 3rd between 7th & 8th Ave's.

    what exactly makes them "skinheads"? Being bald or steel toed boots or being hitler youth or...?

    This thread is going to be kind of fun to watch, methinks.

    I just wanted to mention that just the other day I saw a bunch of black guys on 6th Ave. and 12th street.. I'm not kidding, they actually WERE black... like their skin and everything. I didn't hear any rap music or smell any weed but I know what I saw.

    Hold on, what's that noise? Oh, it's just hell breaking loose.. kinda sounds like Christmas music. Weird.

    True. I've seen white boys with hair in J.Crew and Abercrombie committing violent acts.

    Everybody's comin' home for lunch these days
    Last night there were skinheads on my lawn
    Take the skinheads bowling
    Take them bowling
    Take the skinheads bowling
    Take them bowling
    Some people say that bowling alleys got big lanes
    Some people say that bowling alleys all look the same
    There's not a line that goes here that rhymes with anything
    I has a dream last night, but I forget what it was
