Whatever you're trying to show, doesn't mean shit in Ca.
I think FFF is correct. The meaning of the ink is subjective, and changes from prison to prison and gang to gang.

Charlie brought up the fact that AB leader T.D. Bingham is a mischlinge, and that's correct; he has a Star of David inked on one arm and a Hakenkreuz on the other. From what I understand, the AB is a criminal organisation, devoted to criminal activities, and their "ideology" is simply used as a force of social cohesion in the racially charged enviornment of prison.

The History channel aired a documentary on the AB, and one disgruntled former member, who is now on a hit list, stated that he was talking to the media in order to "warn young National Socialists and other Aryans" to stay away from the AB. The fellow was wearing a Thor's Hammer and covered in racialist ink. I believe his name was Casper Crowley.

Thankfully, I have never been sent to prison, so I cannot comment with any certainty on prison politics; however, I've met a good cross-section of skinheads, and the consensus on this stuff varies from crew to crew. Some believe the web tattoo must be "earned," and they may pick fights with those they believe haven't done so, while others lend no credence whatsoever to that notion. The same is true with the colour of laces.
