MC CLELLAN TRIGGERS SKINHEAD SHAPE-UP
The Scott-McClellan revelations have pointed up how the White House,
itself, has been dishonored by the very occupant of the Oval Office
and his henchmen. The reactions of those who have abused their
offices and betrayed the people ranged from "you shouldn't mention
such a thing" to "why didn't he speak up sooner" to "he's just trying
to promote his book." Skinheads have faced similar obstacles in
trying to clean up their ranks. Some have suggested "just keep quiet
about it" or "don't criticize others," under the notion that "unity" is
promoted by keeping mum. However, the silence has enabled critics
to mount an anti-Skinhead campaign, depicting Skinheads as criminals,
low-lifes, drunks and freaks, although quite the opposite is true.
Anti-Skinhead elements have concocted their own films and videos,
depicting Skinheads as wanton or perverse, which are clearly
parodies. Others portray what they claim are "genuine" Skinheads,
engaging in lewd or disgusting behavior, propagandizing the images to
not only degrade Skinheads, but to try to ward off would-be recruits.
Skinheads take great pride in their appearance, blood and ideals.
Their clean-cut stance is the exact opposite of hippies, Beatniks and
punks. However, some individuals have tried to affix tattooing,
nakedness and drunkenness to the Skinhead-image. Whether accurate
or phoney, well-intended or misrepresented, the false characterization
has reached "enough is enough," prompting "finger-pointing" and a
clean-up campaign.
Unlike McClellan, Skinheads have been reluctant to name names. Some,
like Freddie Howell, simply warn Skinheads away from anti-social or
destructive tendencies. Howell, a California Skinhead with several
tattoos, instructs, "Don't defile your body with tattoos. Be pure."
Jonathan Schoniwitz, a Mississippi Skinhead, shaved off his goatee
and moustache, bidding others to follow his lead. Jason Bunnell,
a New Jersey Skinhead, exudes being not only clean-cut but
neatly-dressed. On the other hand, some calling themselves
"Skinheads" depict themselves naked, even dropping their drawers
and getting tattooed, accompanied by "giving the finger," toting
beer-cans and sporting facial-hair. But, Bunnell is speaking out,
demanding "to change things."
Richie Rose, a Kentucky Skinhead, has been a sort of counterpart to
McClellan. He went through considerable "soul-searching" before
finally coming out for the truth. But, he now insists on Skinheads
who are brothers and patriots, not bums and pariahs. "How could
someone claim to be for a clean, upright and pure America," asks
Rose, "while, at the same time, living like a low-life, reject and crud."
Keith Spilman, a Florida Skinhead, sums it up that Skinheads must
have "clean goals and clean appearance." According to Rose, "A
Skinhead should never bring shame upon his people or come across as
insecure." A man characterizing himself as a "Golden State Skinhead,"
who has been parading naked over the Internet, should be reminded
to "keep pride."
