History lesson # 101

I see a lot of guys out there wearing german helmits, some black some chrome. Rockin out with either one of the two symbolizes something. Who can give me the correct answer to what that represents...

From the Wink Videos I'm assuming chrome helmet means wheelie king of a certain area. I know he was talking about taking them from people.

.....Along with Jews, Catholics, Gypsies, people with physical disabilities, people with mental disabilities, sick people....basically anyone who is not a white Protestant with blue eyes and blond hair. Not only do you hate them, you want to kill them. All of them.

P.S. ***** probably wouldn't have liked stunnas, pimps or gangstas much either, I'd be willing to bet.

just novelty

these helmets are novelty helmets and don't even look exactly like the originals. I don't think chrome would have been very tactical in WWII. I have one and the only reason I wear it is because it's different and it attracts attention...along with riding one wheel

OK for the most part those of you that have given an effort on answering seriously you are on the right track... 100 years ago there was a guy that was king of new york his name was wink 1100. he was renouned in all of the burrows and was a street legend among all of us... He demanded his respect---- Wink always rocked out with the chrome dome and it was known if you came to new york wearin a chrome dome and couldnt scrape your **** you would definatly get it taken away from you-- possibly loose your bike and most definatly get beat up... It was and still is in my opinion a great fasion satatement and a great way to regulate posers...
