As weird as this sounds a lot of gangsters in the 70’s 80’s and 90’s their parents and grandparents had them in church most Sundays as kids,so we all had a level of respect and morals for our elders and the children. I don’t think the youngsters really have that now.
You know they don't have it. All I ever hear out of their mouth is anti-religious rhetoric. They don't care either. It's nothing for them to flash a burner at a woman coming out of church with her daughter. All to intimidate them.
What’s crazy it was always the OG’s in the late 80s early 90s that streer me away from the streets and gang life and always trying to tell the younger brothers keep playing sports and stay in those books but then again it’s some hardcore brothas with no soul lost in this gang life will smoke you innocent or not,for real
I'm NYC. We Had Crews. I Was Down With My Neighborhood Called "Decatur Crazy Crew" You Can Read The Book Called Bronx Boys. We Were For The Neighborhood Helping Old Ladies With Grocery. Children & Women Where Off Limits. Now The Only Gangs We Had Where Bikers. When The Gangs Came From The West Side Blood Crip Latin Kings. In Ny They Were Gang Banging For The Most Stupidity. There's Gang Banging and Gang Members. Gang Members Where The Ones With Knowledge And History. Maintaining Peace. Gang Bangers Where The Dum Ones That Was Fighting For The Cause & Not The Because. Most Of The Time It Was Racist Stupidity. Alot Of Them Where Color Banging. Alot Of Them Got Kicked Out There Set And In Another Jail There Repping Another Color Or Set

Shout out to eight and his family. May the creator continue to bless you man. We need more brothers like yall speaking out. When you're young you do what kids do. When you mature you put away the toys and conduct yaself as adults do.
U gotta bring up this point in those meetings.. " everybody u lost in your hood, they died living that life. They were apart of the war.. it'll be different if they were nobodies but they weren't.. they were street soldiers that died in combat.. they choose to go to war.. u know what comes with that.. all sides took losses... Y'all hands ain't clean.. y'all took out some of theirs too.. so u gotta get over the loses.. If countries can end a war, sign a treaty and get passed it then wtf is our problem? U don't see America and Japan Still beefin talking bout f*** that they took out the col.. 😂 U don't see the Scotts and Irish lined up Still goin at it with England 😂 Tf is our problem "
Man gang leaders taught me how to survive especially LA culture yeah it was bad and so many homies and innocent children lost their lives from gang violence but I will always have respect for it because that was the only people that taught me how to survive and kept me from making the wrong choices. I grew up around gang members, hustlers, pimps and drug dealer all my life in Chicago. people look at as a bad thing but those was the type of people that help me with money, protection, shoes, clothes whatever I needed
Its a shame so many brothas died behind bangin, hopefully in the future all gangs can mature, & ain gotta kicc it with each other but be able to unite when it comes to injustice, violence, and terrorism to the blacc man in the neighborhoods in the whole united states not just in Cali when it comes to the True enemy. Power in the people power to the ppl.
@@allenscott68 Exactly. Cats join because they're either from that hood, or has friends or family who's from that hood, or some other influence that makes them wanna join. I don't think there's still many gangs that are actually out here "recruiting",they don't have to homie. The influences do the recruiting for the gangs 🤦♂️🤨🫣.
Imagine they are talking about a problem that has spread to other cities, states and even countries. Melly Mel Dahoodpostman said they are indeed bangin in Paris France. What are they gonna do about that?
Having an imagination and being open minded helps, understanding the world being bigger than your section, seeing different places, meeting different people from different backgrounds and being curious of other cultures really broadens your horizon.

In The 80’s it was Less Cameras 🎥🗑
There were no cameras, nor no cell phones. You couldn't walk in certain areas. Now you can't go nowhere.
And no social media back then.
Facts. You could get smoked on a pay phone.
@@landail100My cousin and his homie got shot in the face when they was both 15 in San Pedro CA at the phone booth back in the 90s closed casket.
I like that better. Now we’re being recorded at stoplights on every corner.

Like that makes anything better
Doesn't mean anything if they don't live the lifestyle.

Facts we have to get over the casualties everybody lost someone
I think it's hard because there are some people actual family members who were lost during these situations, so to say just get over it, is hard.

Dress code very different. Brothers used to look like gangsters. Today they look like weirdos 😮😅😅
Lol yep. LA waaaay different now than what it used to be. Funny to hear the youngstas use slang from other cities.
Facts
😂💯homie
Factz
If brothers can squash beef’s in prison they can do it out here too.. Just need some leadership
Most of the time it was over a female, and it may still be that way.
Women and kids or even civils was a no no
Very positive content brothers
I ain't from Africa I'm from crenshaw Mafia.

The Crack Era was during the 80s so it was rougher back then.
It was worse back then but this fentanyl era is killing more ppl from overdose

Where's the conversation about going after our real enemy ( the oppressors )
Had it plenty of times. Just not this episode
I agree with that.
Right now we are our worst enemy
