Run the word "skinheads" through Google.com NEWS, and you'll discover the U.S. has relatively few instances of skinhead problems. It appears as if most skinhead attacks occur in eastern Russia.
People who answer "United States" are sadly misinformed and ignorant, or are letting their reflexive hatred for that country get the better of them.

The Skinhead culture began in the UK in the 1960s. They were early supporters of West Indian music such as ska and reggae. They evolved from the mods.
There are three types of skinheads:
There are several different types of skinheads, and three main political categories:
* Traditional skinheads (Trads, Trojan Skinheads) - They identify with the original skinhead movement (The Spirit of 69) in terms of music, style, culture and working class pride. Unlike the other categories, traditionalist skinheads often do not regard attitudes toward racism as central to the subculture.
* SHARP (Skinheads Against Racial Prejudice) - Aggressively anti-racist and usually political, often left wing. The moniker "SHARP skinheads" is commonly used for all outspoken anti-racist skinheads, even if they aren't members of a SHARP organization. Anti-racist skins also include RASH (Red and Anarchist Skinheads), Redskins, and Anarcho-Skinheads.
* White Power skins and Nazi-Skinheads - Racist. Despite the common moniker, many Nazi skins have no connection to the original skinhead culture in terms of style or interests. SHARPs and traditional skinheads refer to them as Boneheads.
The Boneheads adopted this look in order to look intimidatory. Russ "Skull" May, an Australian nazi is an early example.
Judging by your answer, you are thinking of the boneheads. Based on Yahoo and Google News reports, there are significant problems with boneheads throughout Europe and the US to a lesser extent with reports of problems in Russia, Estonia, Poland , Armenia and Germany.

I believe America has some of the most uninformed people who have become skinheads.
