How about starting a mailing list first, and, if that indicates
that enough people care about skin heads, then propose to start a
news group.--

There is certainly a very vocal camp within "the skinheads" to whom this description applies; they march with the KKK and the White Patriots Party, and make outrageous statements, thus guaranteeing the media's interest in them. There is also a sizable portion of "the skinheads" who are kind, gentle, *tolerant* people, who have absolutely nothing to do with the above-mentioned group and their opinions and activities. Many of the ones I've known have taken to growing their hair longer so they're not mistaken for the racist skinheads, who seem to be the only ones who get attention, due to the nature of the definition of news; the out of the ordinary is news, the threatening of the status quo is news. A group of people who wear their hair like Marines and live just like the rest of us is not news. So there is some validity to Mr. De Armond's assertion that the media's picture of skinheads is not an accurate one. That said, his comments about the media leave me uneasy about which camp he falls into, and the intent of his campaign. -- Ralph Brandi ralph@lzfme.att.com att!lzfme!ralph Work flows toward the competent until they are submerged.

moynihan_r@apollo.HP.COM (Robert Moynihan) (01/22/90)
- Okay, a brief recap: John DeArmond proposed a skinheads newsgroup, saying that they have been mis-cast by the media. I replied that the skinheads are extremely vile and evil. There were various messages that followed, concernin them, including information I was unaware of: That the original skinheads are nothing like the ones that tout the white supremacist, neo-nazi claptrap. I confess, I had had never heard of peaceful, understanding, love-thy-neighbor skinheads. If these things are true, and if Mr. DeArmond is defending those original people, then perhaps his proposal has merit. But my favorite message is this one: > > Hey, Bob (if that's really your name), listen up. > Yes, it's my name, why would I use another? I'm listening. > YOU are a bigoted asshole. > Thank you very much, nice to know you have a colorful vocabulary. How can you judge an individual you have never met? I was judging a group I have heard of many times, one that has invariably shown itself to be as I stated. If there are others that go by that name that are otherwise, I never heard of it before. Pardon me for being so vocal. Racism really ticks me off. > The skinhead community, just like many others, > has certainly got its share of rightwing dodos > aching for extinction. > Those are the only ones I have ever heard of. > But also, like many others, there are some > pretty amazing people among them who don't > share those views. > So several people have said since I posted my diatribe. If that's the case, mayhap Mr. DeArmond has a point. > How well does a skinhead using the net fit in > with your tiny concepts? > What tiny concepts? Like the concept that people should be able to live, work, play, and go to school wherever they choose, without fear that someone else will try to harm or kill them or their families? People that preach hatred and violence towards those who are different from them SOMETIMES make me wish that there were limitations on free speech. However, I realize that would do more harm than good, so later, when I feel more rational, I dismiss the thought. Anyone may use the net if they have access, skinhead or otherwise. It's a free country. Likewise, if there are enough people that feel that a skinhead group is a good idea, there will be one. If discussion of it shows me that the neo- nazis are a distinct minority, and that the REAL skinheads are the good ones mentioned by several others, I'll vote FOR it. Otherwise, I'll vote AGAINST it. I have a right to my opinion, as you have a right to yours - my existance as an anal oriface notwithstanding. > John has asked for help to overcome the image > problem that skinheads seem to have - you better > find out what he's got in mind before you open > your mouth. > I call them as I see them.

Now, this car has been OK, but not much more than that. We'll get 100,000 miles out of it before we sell it to someone in need without too much nickle and diming. So, last night I went out and looked at some cars. I already know what the Hondas are like, I tried the VW Jetta and didn't like it, the Toyota Camry is an ok car, but not impressive for the dollar. However, knowing nothing about Hyundais, I went and looked and was somewhat impressed with the Sonata. The dealer (a reasonably nice guy, even) says that the power train is a Mitsubishi power train. So, I'm looking for what you may have heard or experienced. It is a well priced car for its size and options. I'm not looking for any technological breakthroughs in suspension and handling - my fiancee isn't that kind of driver. Thanx. Michael R. Dow DOW@MAINE.BITNET

Unfortunately, the only people who have the balls to put skinheads on TV are psycho-babbling ass holes like Geraldo Rivera (sp?--like I care). What in the hell did he expect, with the white-supremist skins, a rabbi, and a rather large black man. That was asking for trouble (and I'd say he got it. . .). Had you pulled your head out of your ass long enough to notice, the majority of the skins (there were several in the audience) were not white-supremist, or skum bag, cest-infested bums. > The skinhead movement is a bunch of uneducated, racist juvenile delinquents. > They tout the absurdity of white supremacy to the world as a way to make > themselves feel that their inability to make anything of their lives is a > result of some great "black consipracy", and not their unwillingness to work > for their own betterment.

But I do have a couple of freinds who are. One of them marched **against** the KKK in Washington DC a couple of years ago at the age of 16. This shows lots of responsibility, and also courage to stand up for what he believes in. How do you want him to better himself? He is a straight A student, has a job. and is very socially, politically, and mentally aware. True, for the most part, they can get very violent for their beliefs, but who can't. How would you feel if you were dicriminated against because of your hair style? I happen to have fairly long hair, and it infuriates me when I am looked down upon because of the length of my hair. Basically, to avoid their violence, treat them like people. > Spare us, please. This sort of bigoted trash the world can do without. Excuse me, oh wise one, but are you then favoring censorship?

I understand that you're expressing it in terms that (probably, since we can't see you to tell how long your hair really is) have meaning to you. The hair issue is, not to belabor the obvious, about personal appearance. I don't pay much attention to the outside of a skinhead's head.

We already have the boneheads (have you read news.groups lately? ;-) I think we should just create alt.skinheads and see how much traffic we get. My bet is that it will be low. That way we can get rid of this junk in news.groups. Then when there's no traffic for a few months we can rmgroup it and tell the story to anyone who wants to create it again for years to come. --Bill
