These concepts are socially constructed and have been given much weight. What are your thoughts?

So if we were to narrow it down to 5 serious white gangs in LA it would be.

1. NLR
2. SFV Peckerwoods
3. Suicidals
4. La Mirada Punks
5. Norwalk Skins

Thanks afakasi, plenty of gangs listed there. Anyone come across these guys from time to time, Afakasi being in Park Village you probably wouldn't see many Peckerwoods.

You're more likely to see a white Cholo or white Crip in L.A. than any of those above mentioned white majority gangs. AP is probably the most visible. They're fairly easy to spot in East Hollywood.

So other than AP, there are really no other white gangs in LA city, only reason I ask is that in the laalmanc the LAPD listed 5 white gangs in the city of LA.

Their is no AP anymore. AP it's just a bunch of wanna be Armo gangbangers. Alot of Armos claim AP in Glendale but they ain't about shit. Their used to be an AP presence in the mid 90's when I was going to Glendale High but not anymore.

Their is NO white street gangs in LA. Mostly all white bangers join SUR gangs.

Gonzo,
Thnaks for the info, I know there are not many white streetgangs in LA, but Im trying to figure out who the LAPD is referring to when they list 5 white gangs in LA. So far we have a fair few gangs listed, there must be same active white gangs still in LA.

Theres some in North Hollywood High

But Gonzo says inactive? I don't know enough of them to say otherwise so for now I'd go with what he said.

DC,
That LAPD list you're referring to is at least ten years old. I'm pretty sure I've seen it. I recall seeing a list that mentioned five white gangs in L.A.

The five white gangs where probably just some of the punks and stoners of that period - Siuicidal, La Mirada Punx, South Side (in Venice), LADS maybe, Criminal Minded Stoners, who knows.

Armenian Power
Nazi Low Riders
Palldale Peckerwoods
Norwalk Skins
La Mirada Punx
Suicidals
S/S LADS
San Fernando Valley Skins/Peckerwoods
Paramount 420's
South Bay Skins (extinct?)
San Gabriel Skins (extinct?)

Within the city of L.A. itself there's only AP and SFV Skins, maybe some NLR's in the Valley, maybe some Suis left in Venice/Mar Vista.



i know a couple cats from AP and they definately dont view themselves as white.

They're mentality/view of themselves is like Samoans or Mexicans

They even have a uso/ese-type word in Armenian, "hara" or something like that is their version

I also read that Armenians are in 18st and White Fence, 18st seem to be fairly multiracial compared to other Mexican gangs in LA with black, white, asian and hispanics within the gang. On my many visits to LA I seen plenty of peckerwood types in the Long Beach area as well as Venice, does anybody know which peckerwood gangs are in the LBC.

Those woods you saw in Venice were probably just Suicidals or white dudes from Venice Trece. There's no WP movement in West LA unless it's totally underground. WLA is prbably the leat racist part of L.A. except for the black-Mexican conflict in Venice. Even that's dying down.

About Armenians: I've noticed young Armenians that are into being cholos play it up like they're not white, but almost all mainstream Armenians I've met consider themselves white. Armenian people aren't even that dark, Sicilians are darker on average I think.

Just like Mexicans are seperate Salvadorians but are still Hispanic and like Samoans are seperate from Tongans but are still Poly?

Like I said, haras view themselves as seperate even thought they are white.

lol I ddin't mean they viewed themselves as Samoans!

I meant that Armenians view themselves the same way Samoans view themselves, as seperate, with a strong bonding word ("hara" is the Armenian equivalent of "uso") and they have common rival = Turkey, just like Samoans have Tongan rivals.

From what I hear 18 street has alot of Armos, but 18 street tends to be fairly multi racial with whites, black, asians and latinos.
