I come into London on a train on a morning and around the Finsbury park bridges there's Graffiti gone up claiming Crips and Crip membership.

I just returned from the U.K. I ws surprised to see all the camara's everywhere. A definite increase since my last visit. Common - to head off topic slightly - depends when (roughly) you were here last - after the Good Friday agreement they began to scale down some of the surveilance - and then it ...

Any assistance greatfuly recieved #grins#

...i am scottish and irish, i want reperations for the way MY PEOPLE were treated by the english! I agree. The long shank was an evil man. As I walked through Conwy Castle a few weeks ago, all I could think of was the people he threw in the tower to rot. If you go back through history even the Engl...

THIS TOPIC WAS SUPPOSE TO BE ABOUT RAPE AND BLACK MEN, NOT POLITICS. NO NEED TO PREACH TO ME ABOUT SOMETHING I HAVE NO INTEREST IN. But sometimes isn't convicting a black guy of rape a 'political' decision? At risk of sounding like something out of 'to kill a mocking bird' - when you have a white f...

I must admit my choice tends to vary on what mood I'm in - but I got the '2pac Live' CD and it could have been better

( though I may be honest it may just be 'cause I'm used to studio stuff)

I know most people are probably aware of this but thought I'd post it incase.

Every letter or number I input is followed by an error message. It's more annoying than anything else, at least I can post. thats what happened too me. to stop it go to where it says 'Tools' at the top of the internet box, after you click on that it will have some differnet options click on the bot...

The 'Freemasons' are a 'secret' society - rather than a gang.

I'm not sure why they decided 2 include 2pac, Easy-E and Missy Elliot unless they are trying 2 draw in the hip hop market.

If anyone feels like eductating the British (and I apologise for having to ask) - does 213 actually stand for anything or is it 'just' a number?

Thanks

Probably because the mafia dont 'advertise' i.e. Graffiti and tend to avoid the media. You only hear about them for suspected hits or if someone get's caught. They're also organised differently from the L.A. Gangs - and arguments tend not to be about physical 'turf' more about who is moving in on an...

Yo they shot them 2 vatos because they were remove'n them tags that gangs be puttn up. It aint like the dude was just walkn down teh street n boom fu-- em hes dead cause hes "tryn to get his act together" nah not at all. Hell if someone takes down my graff n i catch em ima tell up streight up to mo...

If we're all African in origin, then doesn't it follow that attacking whites is attacking fellow Africans? You can't make an argument for racial superiority, then fall back on we're all the same because we're all African. Invincible - aren't gang feud's (often)attacking fellow Africans - as are the...

Just because you prefer one race over another doesn't make you racist. We are attracted to whom we are attracted to. Nothing is going to change that. You could be with someone for showcase reason's but you may not be happy. Common - I agree with you on that one, what I was asking (very badly) is th...

muslims and jews are been at war for a long time....in my opinon their will never be peace between those two...i never figured out why the us tries to make have peace...i figure because they're on good terms with israel and the middle east has the oil.....but this is juss my opinoin The US 'possibl...

Storm: That's exactly what I was referring to Asians of Indian and Pakistan descent. That's why I was so fascinated. The further out of London the less I saw it, except for Coventry for some reason. Then again, it could have been because I just wasn't around at the right time. I think it seems to d...

But if Puffy set up Big Jake - then how come he's still alive ?

Sounds like someone's been reading 'LAbyrinth' by Randall Sullivan. I tend to take a lot of the stuff sourrounding 'Pac's death as conspiricy theories but Biggie's mum thinks enough of the Cop involved to have a case going through the courts based on the evidence that is used in the book re the deat...

My 'personal' greatest is 'Pac - for his lyrics and the fact he could make you feel it, he was a great lyricist and storyteller as well as having the delivery. I admit I hadn't heard Big Pun (but will check it out) . I do give B.I.G his props but to quote a previous poster 'Pac was on a whole 'nothe...

Well that's kool Michelledope. What other races have you dated? When I was in London 3 weeks ago.. there were so many different types of ethnic groups that's not so common in California. Is there much mixing in the U.K.? I saw a few African nationals with English women. One of my boyfriend's was ha...

i know what u mean, there are tons of gangs in south london, but there mostly kids between 13 to 19. do u think that it will ever get as bad as L.A? Naw , it never gonn be as bad as in LA in entire Europe , simply due to the restrictions on guns and the different social structure . I dont know - th...

lucky for themselves that they dont have Access to Guns.. Despite the UK gun laws being quite strict guns are begining to get more common out here - possibly (and this is just a theory) a lot of the guns from the Irish 'conflict'/'situation'/latest word of the week have got to go somewhere now that...

But also refers anyone who emails him to http://www.booksforsoldiers.com - has a button for them on his site - and donates a huge amount of stuff to the US military - books, DVD's etc

(before I hit the flame war - I'm English - so playing devil's advocate)

I have looked for the answer to this one and couldn't find it ( if it's on here somewhere already my apologies) but for the Brit at the back
why/how does 187 = murder?
