  I live in this neighborhood and have just been put in danger.  This is a rough neighborhood and if I'm walking alone and mistaken for a skinhead - yea not making it out of that one alive!!

• I think that is a sound judgement.

• BUt wouldnt you be more likely to be left alone by everyone ?  They think you are one of them, others think you are one and stay away ?

• I live on a "bad" neighborhood too, people telling me : "I hate bald people".
  Someone almost got killed because they "don't like his bald head".
  I guess I'll survive

• Back when we used to have a big skin head problem in north Idaho most of the guys I saw had buzz cuts, rarely smooth shaved. Most of the 'skinheads' in north Idaho now have full heads of hair, its more a term than anything now up here

• Gotta Love San Francisco... 
  
  For a city that supposedly preaches tolerance, they're very intolerant.

• If it's that rough a neighborhood, why not just move?

• Frisco sure has come a long way. What a shame.

  I was thinking the same thing but I know it's often times not an easy thing to do.

  Am I misreading the article--I didn't see anything about a Sly Guy getting wacked?  Skinheads are sick individuals.  Have they threatened you?

  Unfortunately there are white supremacy groups just about everywhere.
  Exactly what does this have to do with shaving your head?  Unless you tattoo it like the person in the picture of the article and join a supremacy group.

• The neighborhood is rough.  Cant afford to move.  The area is full of gangs and drug dealers who dont ask before they just beat on someone for looking a certain way or looking at their drug deal going down.  I dont need a bigger target on my back being a white guy of European decent.

• Yes, I was reading a report by the SPLC and there are hate groups/skin heads in about every state...it's really a shame that you are in such a bad situation. Best of luck.

• Auch, so bad to read this. Ignorance kills. And it surely must be a comfortable thing (for silly and narrow-minded persons) to judge others by their outlooks, but...
  a.) I know from experience that one can be an ideological skinhead, even if his hair is so long that he could sit on it.
  b.) Taking a bald person for a skinhead... well... what about, for example, Buddhist priests?...
