But the subculture itself was already assosiated with beating up immigrants? So its trading off between beating up brown people or beating up jews to my eyes.
Actually, the original British subculture was heavily made up of Jamaican immigrants.
To the OP: In my particular neck of the woods (deep in redneck western Canada), we've always had a problem with the various Neo-Nazi Skin's (which I usually refer to as NNS and/or Ninnies) trying to co-opt the general acceptance that most people around here show to the Trad Skins.
It was actually bad enough that we had running fights between some fairly large groups, with the rednecks and ninnies on one side, and the queers, trads and a couple other subculture groups on the other. In fact, for quite a while, the local vinyl shops actually sold jacket patches that said "Shaved Head, Not Skin Head", and a lot of folks were proud to wear them, even if it meant that some ninnies got their dander up.
