White gangs in LA (RACE RELATED)

[DC]

So this is all the info people have on white gangs in LA, I thought we could come up with more than what we have...........

[Silencioso]

There's not much to talk about. They're virtually non-existent.

[WIP]

I don't know which 5 white gangs the article is refering to, but here are some active white gangs in LA County:

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.

^yup

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

[DC]

Lets not get things confuesed here, an Armenian is not like a Samoan or a Mexican, AP may not view themselves like other white gangs but Armenians are definatley white..........

[DC]

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.

This thread faded away, but Ill try one more time does anybody know about
what I posted above ^^^^^^^?

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.

[DC]

Ok they may view themselves as seperate but Armenia and Samoa are worlds apart.

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.

[DC]

OK I get you man, alot of Armenians tend to jon Chicano gangs, do Armos and Chicanos get on good...

[streetsIswatchin]

they do join mexican gangs..but only if they live in predominantly hispanic neighborhoods. Theres that gang called AP Armenian Power and they have beef with all mexican gangs around them. And its all racial.

[DC]

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.
