I know anti-racists that will beat sharps in LA, Portland and Seattle. SHARPs still run Portland, but that's about it. Most skins now are either non-political (fencewalkers we call them) or anti-racist, and independent. SHARP in NY, DC and Portland was gang listed.
The homophobic thing used to trip me out too. SHARP is pretty much dead, and there are still a lot of anti-racists and non-political skins out there. Oh and laces mean nothing anywhere except in Portland anymore that's funny. I wear white, for two tone/contrast, and was told I'd get rolled in Portland. Yeah let's fight fascism with fascism, good idea. -----Original Message----- From: Judah McAuley [mailto:ju...@wiredotter.com] Sent: Monday, April 05, 2010 4:38 PM To: cf-community Subject: Re: _Speaking_of_the_Supreme_Court:_Marine's_father_ord_ere d_to_pay_court_costs_to_Westboro_Baptist_Churc I don't know about the NY scene but out here in the West, we have a distinction between the racist skinheads, who are just called Skinheads, and the anti-racist skinheads, which are called Sharps. Back in the day (I don't hang with many Sharps anymore) they could usually be distinguished by such absurd things as the color/lacing of their docs. Of course most of the Sharps were still homophobic assholes but at least they didn't hate black people. Not that we had many black people around to hate. Still, there was something to be said for nazi baseball back in my youth.
