You never addressed my big post that rectified your fallacies. In fact it's Mexicans and Asians that I see copying white people so much, punks, hip hoppers, taggers, metalheads, hipsters, skaters all that shit. Some blacks do that but the majority of blacks follow their own culture.
I AGREE. Alot of MExicans have gone skater and goth and punk, give it time they always come home perongregory...........ELA chicano gangs didnt last a 100 years to die out in 2009. Mexican kids are just kinda tired of the gang life and looking for other ways to express theselves without getting killed. And I can understand that. You may think I am blinded by chauvinism by by and large you are 100% correct in your analysis. I dont have the reasons just to say that the things above are fashionable rigth now ,just like long hair, bell bottoms and collared,flowered shirts were when the EME was getting their pics took in the 60s....remeber that picture? How do I post pics in this Bitch
press the IMG button and paste the image address in between the or whatever.
NIL PERONGREGORY NIL!.....................I will say that Puerto Ricans , Any asian hip hopper are just confused black wannabees and lackeys.........BY GOD!! look at their names, ASIAN BOY CRIPS< SAMOAN BLOODS<CAMBOADIAN BLOOD CLAN<on and on and on, what a bunch of WANKSTERS! Puerto RIcans wearing SHAWN JOHN and rocking braids,claiming latin kings , and saying my NINJA after every 3rd word! They make me sick. How the heck you want me to acknowledge them as being original?They are confused ! and dont have a drop of originalitiay, with their fake ass gangs---TONGA BLOOD, waz up my vietnamese crip brother.........LOL!! freaking wanksters, JUST IMAGINE TAKING A BULLET FOR THAT?!!!can you imagine how those asian BLOODs must feel when they go to the joint and look in the mirror at age 30, and realize everything they did had no consequence and not only that that their whole life and upbringing were given up in a moment of BET admiration? Dressing like cholos ,getting tatted in ELA fashion , talking black and banging black hoods. HWO ARE THESE MONSTERS FROM THE DEEP ? the just appeared like a like a sea creature from the depths of the ocean. I remeber when cambodians first tried being bangers and they would get the 4 dots to represent my CRAZY KHMER LIFESTYLE...........I mean seriously dont they have anything they kept of their culture or did it all just go in the garbage the first time the saw a cholo and flicked on BET??
Who are the Americans that have been here from the beginning or for a long enough time to make their own American culture: The white, the black, the Mexican, the Chinese, the Puerto Rican, the NA. All of these groups culture is just a mixing and dicing of each others cultures. How does an ELA Chicano compare to a Mayan in Chiapas? How does a Black Chicagoan compare to a Mende in Mali? etc. There's something distinctly American about these groups, and since the only original Americans on this land are NA (and we know how they got #%@&), we can deduce that it was the ingrained culture of these distinct american types mixed with the cultures of other immigrants to this country that formed the creolized culture of the white, Black, and various latino Americans we see today. That's all I want you to acknowledge.

Unlike you , I aint trying to make friends by selling out my people, I just imagine what youd be like outside of cyberspace.
I'm not selling out my people, I'm just not buying your ethnocentric arguments/fantasies about Chicanos being the creators of modern street culture. Outside of cyberspace I back up my stuff. If a white or black comes on racist to me I'll call them out on it. If somebody puts down Chicano or Mexican people, I'll stand up to them EVERYTIME. I'm just trying to stay honest about this issue.
Should I relinquish every piece of history that ELA chicanos have created? the sould and heart of this thing is ELA all day. How could another culture get the same tattoo work as we do and consider themselves anything but an EMULATOR, POSER or ELA afficionado?? I guess if I get some dred locks or rock some SHAWN JOHN or braid my hair , I could still be authentically mexican so long as I dont sag the gear or only let my dred locks grow under the required length for a rasta or braid my hair to the south to represent MEXICO. PLEASE my ninja, blacks are doing just that.
Modern day tattoo art is pretty much a grab bag of everything. Traditional cholo style ink is a big influence but so is tribal tattoos (polynesian, Celtic, Asian) old style sailor/military type tattoos and imagery taken from popular culture. Most hipster white people seem to have these Celtic arm band looking tattoos or little flowers and butterflies right above the ass - is that cholo? Black people often have brands, which is kind of unique to them. I see people of all races with Asian letters on their arms.

You have such a tiny view of the world, my dude.
Your whole perspective centered around East LA as if it's the capital of the nation. OF THE WORLD....
lol
With 98.6% of the same #%@&#%@ people surrounding you everyday (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Los_A ... California), of course it's hard to come to respect other cultures and know anything about different peoples. You don't have to do that in your little pocket. And I wonder if you ever even been past Baja and the border cities either, talking Mexican this and Mexican that.
You had nothing to say about my response a few pages back but it's all good. I'm watching you in amusement with your weird complex.
Your last two responses are so misinformed they're not worth addressing.
Maybe one day you will leave ELA and have something of value to tell people.
I want you to come spend some time in the BX and the Heights and say Dominicans and Puerto Ricans don't have culture lol
How would you even know?
Stick to talking about the Mexicans cause that's all you know about.

How would folks in NYC, CHI TOWN or any other place east of the mississippi know about a geographical area called EAST LOS? or even outside of socal.
Did Tookie care about White Fence, 38th Street or any of those varrios that were around? Most Blacks during those times didnt live north of slauson and never had any dealings with anyone north of downtown LA. So all this influence you talking about is blown way out of proportion.
I give props were they are due. I have no problems with blacks being influenced by chicanos or chicanos being influenced by Blacks. most influence came in the 80s when predominately black neighborhoods were getting an influx of mexican immigrants.

Most Surenos nowadays wont admit they have turned the page to a new era and been influenced by Rap/Crip culture.
This was the Era when Socal Cholos had honor and dressed like Real Vatos.

I was raised in LA, PURO "DIRTY ASS 3RD WORLD" WLA VATOOOOO lol
Been living in NYC, Brooklyn for 10 years
NYC IS something special, baby. JANKEEEEEEES!
I know you probably, errrr *cough* prolly can't leave the state n whatnot, so you might not ever find out what the world outside of ELA is like beyond studying tattoos in Lil Wayne and Pitbull videos. Shit I got a homie who also errrr couldn't leave NY state since he was 18 but managed to get permission from his p.o. to see his 'sick mother' outta state and flew out with his girl to LA and went through all the hoods in Compton, Long Beach, South Central and all that. It's really funny because he couldn't believe that Mexicans were anything different than the outnumbered, outclassed, immigrants with no sway on popular culture that they are out here (no disrespect). Cause he never left NYC
I'm gonna break it to you that Bloods and Crips are just a fraction of what's going on out here. Did you notice in the video you posted of a blood and crip at a sean bell protest, when you see the crowd at the beginning, ANYBODY ELSE in the crowd wearing blue or red rags like that? Look at this video of another sean bell protest:
You see any Bloods and Crips in this Sean Bell protest? Among all the other groups you see organized here? Any vatos locos cholos brownside riders boulevard nights influence?
Even then, it's Black gangs that are being emulated anyway, not White Fence and Aves with their "cortezez and bald heads, ay". Trust me, dressing and talking like a cholo will not get you the bad women at the club or win you any cool points out here! These days in NYC, dressing like a fag prolly will get you more cool points than dressing like a cholo lol
Yeah it may be soft and the gangs weak out here... that's cause even in the hood many of the kids are raised to know better these days!
Anyway only reason I came in here, cause I got nothing to say about LA anymore been gone too long, is this nationwide claim about Chicanos influencing everybody meanwhile Puerto Ricans Dominicans Blacks Asians in America got none of their own culture. I give it up to Chicanos for having their own style and for influencing SOCAL ELA LA culture, but I'm not knocking nobody else in the process.
