As for wearing Ben Shermans, Perry's and all that. Those brands are just more common and popular amongst the general population in Europe than in the US.

For skinheads and punks being enemies.... that all just depends on the time and place my friend. I give certain people a hard time if i cross paths with them. Most of the time i just laugh at them. Just depends on the situation. I'm not talking about some random kid with just some mohawk and studded up leathr jacket eithr. It's usually a political thing.

that makes sense.
