I don't see what murder rates have to do w/a city being the most gangster, or what that even has to do w/the thread

All this LA vs Chicago thing is a matter of subjectivity. Everyone has an opinion. But when you look at the facts, it isnt hard to figure it out. Chicago has a more violent and gangster culture...either that or the gangmembers in Los Angeles are just suffering from radioactivity and it is impairing their vision--which means they dont have good shooting aim. LOL

As far what this has to do with this thread...it's all the same: violence, power, influence, gang sofistication and organization etc..etc...

But the truth be told, there are other cities throughout the world that are far worse.

And finally, I am a Latin King!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Whatever the fuck I say in a forum that is titled "Latin Kings" is completely relevant.

You say that, but responded to it quite a few times. LOL What makes a city the most gangster is how many things or people are gangster. A city could be the murder capital from having non-gangster serial killers & that wouldn't make it the most gangster, but that ain't even what this thread is about..

Well all of our serial killers were either executed or died in prison already, LOL. I am not exaggerating about my city. If you want to understand why chicago is the most violent just do a little research.
Let me help you. Let's just look at 3 cities: Chicago, New York and Los Angeles. Read this article and you will see how Chicago topped L.A. and New York in the murder rate (remember this means murders per 100,000 people) between 1992 and 2002. This says alot considering that New York is three times the population of Chicago and Los Angeles is twice the population of Chicago.

Then when you look at all cities in the U.S. between 2003 and 2007 these were the murder capital results:

2003 - Chicago
2004 - Washington D.C
2005 - Gary Indiana
2006 - New Orleans
2007 - New Orleans

And guess who was the murder capital in 2008. That's right, CHICAGO.

I cannot remember the last time L.A. had the highest "murder rate". As you can see, the Motherland of the ALKN is the real gangster city!!!!!

I think you were a lil, but you were right about some stuff (got to give that). Like you said: everybody got their own opinion, but some of these facts stand out. The size don't really matter tho.. Just look how GI took the title in '05, but if you want to go even lower just look at East Palo Alto in 1992 (pop. of 20 something thousand at the time).

[MMRbkaRudog]

Is Chicago the gang capital now? LA held that title for a long time. Plus just cause Chicago got more 187's, don't mean it's more gang killings or that something is wrong w/LA. If anything it's good that LA calmed down & I don't see what's so kool about being the murder cap.. What if that was all your loved 1's dying? Would it be so kool then?

PLK was the first Latino gang I heard about in Pasadena and that was in the early 80's so they pre-date that. I grew up in the area and none of the established Latino gangs in Dena is from the 90's. I got homeboys from ABC and LK's always been up there around them. They was probably before them and the ABC's got started in 80-81. The PLK's aint affiliated with the Chicago ones.

This guy on Topix claims that they formed in the early 80s:

[I am the last of the originals od the "Pasadena latin kings"!
Snapper and Trigger, we formed this shit in Dena.
My repects to all others by the same name, this is not what we intended to hate each other..
you dont believe go on and visit Resurection Cemetary in San gabriel, This is were Snapper lies, My great friend.
I still live in Dena on woodbury and lake.
Dont hate stand proud. were all from the same raza.
933 weimar was the house where it all started, in the early eighties. Thats in altadena for those who dont know!!!!!!

I don't remember them prior to 83, and they aren't listed on a comprehensive gang list that was published in 82, so yeah they're from 83, 84.

Also:

"PASADENA LATIN KINGS" was formed in a street in Altadena in 1987 by two Chicanos who grew up together on Weimar St.
