StreetGangs.Com forum on gangs around the world

What can Bill Cosby expect during his time in prison?

I guess this answers some of my question.

What are some gang related slang that are unique to Chicago? Or more Hip Hop related slang.

I want to ask this question. Is it a myth or reality that gang members also get free guns that are left near train tracks and other places? Is this true or an urban legend?

Buy them from who exactly?

What about gang members who can't pass background checks?

What are some of the sources for the guns that gang members have?

He talks about his experiences growing up in L.A.

Is Donna Graham the Black girl with the blonde hair in this video? I saw a recent video of an older Donna Graham and noticed some similarities in looks with this girl in the video.

I like the way Charles Miller broke things down at 29:50 of the video.

From 1971.

I first saw this photo on that Showtime documentary on the 65 Watts and 92 riots. Does anyone know what year it was taken? Who are some of the other guys in the photo? Raymond is in the middle. https://scontent.cdninstagram.com/t51.2885-15/s480x480/e15/12798109_450023098525437_896890893_n.jpg?ig_cac...

Found this profile on life in Compton from 1971. They touch on Compton's transition to a majority Black city at the time.

I thought it was interesting seeing how political those gangs were for a moment back then. I guess some of the Black Panther's influence must have rubbed off on them. Makes me wonder what things would have been like if Fred Hampton hadn't been killed by the police.

I saw in another video that the Vice Lords were given some money to make this documentary. It's about an hour long so check it when you have some free time.

If you break things down to individual gangs are there examples of some Blood gangs being larger than their Crip rivals?

In gang neighborhoods(in L.A/Compton) how many young guys are actual gang members? Like if you go to the Rollin 60's area or Nickerson Gardens projects(Bounty Hunter Bloods) how many 18 year old guys in these areas are members of those gangs? Are the gang members in the majority or minority in their...

I wish more black folks would evolve out of this thinking that being educated or having an interest in science is "acting white". That's counterproductive thinking that too many of us engage in. Without scientist much of the world would be underdeveloped.

There's two more parts to this interview.

^ Yeah I remember seeing that around 1988-89. I've been looking out for another show by Frontline PBS from around 1986 called "Shootout On Imperial Highway". It was about a business owner who had some confrontations with the Bounty Hunter Bloods of the Nickerson Gardens projects. I'm looking out for...

Here's something from 2007 on that construction owner Baxter Sinclair.

From 1989.

I'm guessing he's still in prison since he did shoot two people killing one of them.

He was the Eight Trey gang member who shot that Rollin 60 during that fight in 79 that caused the Eight Treys and 60's to start fighting each other. Whatever happened to him?

It's a seven part series by CNN. They're at the 4th episode I think now. Look for it on thursday nights.

Watching that movie makes me wonder what a movie would have been like had it been about L.A's gangs during the 70's and they actually had Raymond washington,Tookie and other crips in it.

Did any west coast people develope any particular fighting tactics on the streets or in jail? The term jailhouse rock is an umbrella term for fighting tactics developed by people in jails and on the streets. One known style of this is "52 Blocks" developed by NY area inmates and street fighters. 52 ...

Not sure if many of you have seen this movie called "The Education Of Sonny Carson". They used actual NY gang members in it. Here's a clip.

Any interviews?

How many kids did Raymond have?

Where are they today?

Did any get involved in gangs?

Have any ever been interviewed?

When L.A gang members watch that movie what do they think of it?

I thought about them possibly being a motorcycle or car club. I know New York streegangs had jacktes similar to that in the 70's which was why I thought of them being a gang.

I'm guessing this is from the late 80's.
