As a white kid who grew up with Cambodian bloods I must say they are some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. I was the “new kid” in a big city highschool and I got picked on a lot for being a suburban kid, my Cambodian blood friends stood up for me every time and made sure they had my back!
Happy C day cuddy! Crip cuh on dat block!
yea cause they aren't really gangster lol
they only blood when no crips are around.
they chose the color red , just like the Khmer Rouge regime that commited genocide against their people.
not the brightest people on earth.
they the biggest pretenders out there, they fold that flag anytime crips are around 100% of the time@@yeon723
These were some real people. When dude said he would tell a young kid not to bang, my respect for them went up 100%. Edit: he just said he lived for his parents. You don’t hear that often. These some of the most down to earth dudes I’ve seen. Love the positive energy.

Exactly

I met some Cambodian cats when u was working in Downtown Oakland at Jack London Square. They were fishing and caught some crab and made some rice to go along with it. They didn’t know me from anything, gave me a plate and I sat with them and ate, talked. Very kind people. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Cambodians love feeding others. They take great pride in this.
@@vega21South East Asians in general
He's joking
bunch of possies and snitches. they only bloods when no crips are around. big time fake gangsters
You can fish at jack London sq? I only used to go down there for barnes and noble and for dates in the old days.
The young man speaking on living for his parents is how we all should be doing. The goal is to always provide a better life than the last generation. I really respect him for that.
rns
Yeah that was cool of him. Always respect the parents.
Is he really? Or usa is doing that?
@@paulp939He's talking about his mindset.
that is cambodian culture and our form of buddhism. the buddha are your parents
You’re ability to interview different people is incredible, you seem to adapt well to people and get on with with anyone you talk to
That’s cause he known for basically promoting hood shit 😂
You don’t know what Milwaukee is like apparently. You step out the whip. You breathing in hood, I felt safer in west side Chicago than in east side Milwaukee at 8am. Wisconsin’s people will pull that midwestern charm out even in the Sahara desert.

I lived on the island of Koh Rong, Cambodia for 5 months back in 2018. The Khmer are some of the nicest people you could ever hope to meet in your life. All the love for this journalism. 💙👏🏼
Wrong colored heart Homie!! SUWOO!!!! 😂😂
Man, take me back to Koh Rong. What a fucking paradise.
Cambodia is one of my favorite countries to ever visit. I've been there five times. Party favors galore ;) Was on Koh Rhong Samleom island back in 2015 and it was the best beach paradise I've every enjoyed throughout the world and I've been all over. The water was clearer than that of Hawaii, Florida, Thailand, and Africa. Starfish were bright orange and the size of my hand. Roosters were our alarm clock. Also. there was no internet or wifi and only electricity for twelve hours a day. Absolute paradise.
I agree, said ethnic group from said 3rd world country with a troubled past are lovely people.

What is it, pride week up in the comments section or something?
@@taipanpete4060😂
I don’t really comment on videos but this hands down was the most interesting video yet. They seem well organized and respectful towards eachother. I can tell they’re all closer than friends building that bond is important and helps people grow together! Keep it up Tommy s/o the Cambodian Bloods 💯
There clowns gangs are for the weak
Correction:
Bambodian Bloods
hahahaha, until they are not....
🇰🇭💯
so they chose the color red to represent Pol Pots Khmer Rouge regime that committed mass genocide. thats as dumb as it gets. but then again... they are cambodian.. so not too surprised there
Respectfully I don't think this channel gets proper attention or relevance it's deserves. This is for real journalism about real life. Much respect for you and your team . Keep making these videos.
Just gon write this here for any Cambodian kids that needs help. Just work a job and build your credit. Save as much money as you can. And y’all already got a support group so if 4 of y’all could get a 750 credit score that’s at least 400k in business funding and y’all could start businesses. I’m 25 from Oakland and I was in the streets but I made it out through crypto and credit. And I’m traveling the world now. I moved to nyc and been going to different countries where the US dollar makes you rich.
It’s at 492k views in 18 hours as I’m writing this. Tommy getting plenty attention
Yea i was about to say @josephaguilar2778
the internet algorithm doesnt like videos that show the good side of humanity
damn near 700k views in a day sounds pretty good too me
Filipino here, I've met different gang members in my area and around Stockton. Honestly, most or all of them are actually chill as long as your not fxkin with them. Just be yourself and be normal and you'll be okay. I'm not in any groups and you just let them know your just a regular Stocktonian. My Khmai friends actually thought me some history that was mention in this video. Thanks for putting 209 here!
you guys are pathetic. get a damn education and a job.
The Cambodian Bloods of Stockton share a compelling narrative of unity and strength in this video. Their story is a testament to resilience and brotherhood, highlighting a commitment to community and positive change. Share this powerful message widely!
Props for reporting on the Cambodian folks. Their people have been thru a lot. Much respect to my khmer fams!❤
So reporting about gangs is cool?
i dont have much respect for cambodians. ask me why
@@GeorgeChan-kp3ls no one gives a shit
what you see on camera, and how they are in real life is 2 completely different thing. cambodians are some of the slimiest people you can ever meet
@@GeorgeChan-kp3lswhy?
Oh my goodness 1000 times I would vote for that guy for city councilman. I love his energy and bless his heart for his enthusiasm and passion for giving back to his community. The men you interviewed are just that, MEN! Much ♥️♥️♥️to each of y’all
And Tommy you are an actual triple OG. I love your content and I’m always just completely in awe of how you’re able to spread love light and awareness across every genre. Much love and light to you and your crew and to you and your wife and your growing family. Love you guys. God bless all of you.
😂😂
Much respect. I grew up in Northern Cali and Stockton was no joke even back in the early 90s.
Knew a bunch of Cambodians in high school, they were all super friendly. It feels hopeless growing up in Stockon and San Joaquin County when your family doesn't have much. Most people that I knew left, including me. There's a real lack of jobs that pay decent wages.
The military got me out the 209
Been in SC for 5 years still a South Stockton 9th st Blood tho just wanted a better life
Born N Raised in Mo town and i'm moving my self now after 3 decades. Its just a dead end here.
You either work for that broke ass city Stockton, Corrections or Walmart. Thats all Stockton got going on for it.
Yeah, I moved to Sacramento as soon as I could...then I left the state. It was quite hopeless. Everyone with talent left. Had some damn fine food tho, still miss it!
Tommy, this has been one of my favorite videos youve done as of late. Javn got a good heart for sure and hearing him talk about his parents was heartwarming as hell. That whole group seemed very wholesome tbh.
His mom is probably like 4 foot 8, I've never seen a Cambodian woman over 5 foot 5, and if she was above 5 foot 2, guaranteed to have an unhealthy BMI, And they all have a thing for the brothers, even more so than the Latinas.
@ruslanibragimov4991 how is any of that relevant?
@ruslanibragimov4991downtown
i`ve never met a cambodian that can count up to 20 without catching a massive headache@@ruslanibragimov4991
lmao mf is yapping@@ruslanibragimov4991
Tommy G - I just wanted to say thank you for your videos. I'm a 50 yr old dude and I'm a huge fan. You are showing the world what America really is, just good people, regardless of their looks, status, etc. Keep it up man.
It’s so crazy watching us watching a Vlog about where I grew up Lewis Park, pixie woods, Mount Diablo, the corner store you guys went to. That’s my childhood watching this brought back a lot of memories growing up. You guys literally showed my old house. I almost cried.
I really appreciate that you came to our city and showed it some love broo means a lot
fr never thought he would slide thru
W
Video was ceaZy fr
Fr
he needa meet jaaybo or young joc fr
young cat seems like a good dude. wish him the best in getting out the hood with his parents
everybody seems like a good dude when the camera is on LMAO
maybe he should try getting a job instead of leeching off the welfare systems like most cambodians do
i know nerds more gangster then these pretenders.
This dude was so down to earth man. Really positive energy. A real ass dude
This is proof that every young man needs a tribe to belong. I was lucky to do it through sports. When i stopped playing as i got older, i could feel myself becoming more distant and leaning towards self harm (alcohol and drugs). No matter what they do, you can see the love for each other.
Interesting cause lots of people don't have things to do or teams to be a part of and don't lean to being drug addicts . Plus doing sports at a young age is said to stop dumb behavior when you get older but seems like that didn't work for you . Probably a mental strength issue not being a part of a " tribe" . Need accountability of your actions cause being a drug addict isn't something you just naturally gravitate to
i never in my life thought tommy was finna go to stockton 😭
right😭
Tommy g you’re the goat. I graduated from MSU. I’ve lived in the ghetto to highest value areas and what you show is respect is everything. Everyone is on different paths to the same mountain top. Guess where the nicest people were, the ghetto. I have a family now and doing well but i miss it so much. I was the only white dude at hunter park in Lansing on sundays after church. If you were there you know I made the best mashed potatoes. Helped out with community garden and taught kids in the area to grow food from the ground because I’m from an agro community. Point is to get involved. No matter where you live, get involved. Politicians suck and divide us. But also have the right mindset. You are no better than ANYONE because of what you’ve done, your status, how much you make, your account balance, nothing. I think you get that.
lansing still that place, im in the same boat bro, live in the UP now. but i met some of the coolest mf there lol, more south side and a lil north.
Bro calm down boy. He just a culture vulture. You too can go around being racist getting paid off the backs of minorities. Sh!t is sweet
@@jonathansherman7290 NM myself. Not quite the UP. The city in pinky.
Go green
Lansing not ghetto bro😂😂
These fellas will probably be friends for life, beyond the streets. You can tell they’re bonded on a deeper level. Hope some Filipinos up in there cause seems like similiar culture
Check out MBnel a Filipino rapper from South Stockton he tight with Stupid young....but beef with TC Low a Filipino/Khmer rapper from the same gang as Stupid young.
Bro, i love these guys. They are so genuine and happy to be alive. Stay safe my brothers and i wish yall the best
I actually like this main dood, seems like a genuinely alright young man
them being mindblown about the wrestling initiation is wild 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Doritos and Oreos in the eyes is wild
Cuz thats ish is crazy. The eyes? Why ruin ur eyesight
I think I’d rather get beat up too 😭 not finna risk my eyesight
@@kingj_da1st377 🤣🤣🤣 I see both sides but it’s jus funny seeing them shook about it given they probably been through much worse realistically
@@hoodsaviors I'd rather catch a body for an initiation than do some jackass 2.0 shit like that lmao nah
Cambodians are solid dudes and nice people.. You show loyalty and they'll ride for ya til the death, salute my bros
Good to see youngsters having fun. Be safe out there. One love.
I was just there. They rebuildin the park and everything. Thank you Stockton for keeping it art
I think this was a good perception of the Cambodian gangs here in CA. They are loyal and good people. I had many as friends growing up. Always a good time and always made you feel like family.
Kid at the beginning was smart and didn’t want to be tough. Respectable
Stockton!! My home thanks for coming out Tommy G!
"I live for my parents", now I'm a buddhist myself, and that boys and girls, is the true meaning behind Buddhism.
You should do a documentary about schooling in America. And how it was designed to create factory workers. That is why so many of us come out actually equipped for adult life.
Huh?
@@9roselove9I think he meant to write “not actually equipped”
ready for adult life? they just make you obedient, not ready for adult life, 1 economics and 1 finance class is not enough for adult life. They need to be teaching kids to be free thinkers and ask questions, and once they get into high school start preparing them for jobs, get them into career paths or help get them into higher education so they are prepared for life. And for the love of god teach kids more about finance so the world doesn't feel so scary to 18 year olds out of high school
“I don’t want a nation of thinkers, I want a nation of workers”

@@Weather_Nerdpeople just dont get. We need people to be self sufficient not depend on big daddy government.
Love that young man saying that he does not want to see the younger kids go through what they go through and more importantly, looking out for his parents. That young man has a lot of love in his heart. Crazy he caught up in that type of life. I'm sure his parents are worried about him every time he walks out the front door. Great video Tommy G. Oh, sorry, I mean Tommy B. LOL Be careful and safe travels. These guys are NO JOKE! 💯
They say that on camera.. Then give youngins guns and drugs to hold for em
@@user-sd1je1ku2t You might be right but it's actually a nice change of pace when gangsters aren't just hyping up how great they are for being in a gang. They're actually able to sit back and at least put on a decent public image to say hey this life isn't it. Most other gangsters just like to talk about how wild and crazy their hood/gang is in a way that is supposed to glamorize it to young kids.
@@user-sd1je1ku2ti live in this area and this group is pretty chill, like protective of the whole neighborhood. yeah i may hear gunshots here and there (probably bc of their opps) but when they walk by they dont give a second glance to intimidate anyone. i remember when the vigil was held for the guy that died
I lived in Pilsen in Chicago for 17 years, and I most of the bangers on my block. They actually looked out for me and my wife on 2 occasions. I always felt safe and when I left my home, I knew nobody was going to rob me. @@bword590
Yea, living in Chicago for 30 years, most of those guys have PTSD and are paranoid in tougher hoods. The young ones worry me the most because they are trying to get street cred.@@JohnS-ch7cr
Tommy g is that dude. He asks good questions and is genuinely interested in the areas. I know Cambodian people from Philly and they cool ass peeps but turn up like anyone else.
Gotta say, I wasn't expecting that. Really cool video.
i hope that video gives more exposure to Javn, he's one of the best west coast rappers rn, and bro deserves more credit.
What regular well off people might not realize, is that these are good kids, who join a gang for a sense of family and community, and family isn't always blood (no pun). It's good we got little Docs like this, to give us insight, that helps warrant compassion.
Honestly saw these dude everyday when I stayed at my friends warehouse for like three weeks. I felt a sketch but also friendly vibe. My friend said they were cool and he made friends with them and not to worry lol. Had no idea they were bangers!
This is a friendly message to Aioli the clothing designer..
Put some culture into your designs brother, it will draw more people in, you all are some good people with a good state of mind, all the best from New Zealand 💯
what i love about this most is its first time someone showed a little insight into Stockton without all the scary buzzwords and crime statistics. we have a lotta love to give but don’t cross us 🤞
I like these kids - positive and not glorifying gang life.
these are just normal kids, the ones deliberately against should be "not normal"
The Big dude Been on every Stockton Bloods documentary that I've seen. Shout out LPB 💯👌🏾
Usually I don’t comment on your videos but didn’t expect you to interview Javn2900 and it was great content fr, much love to the Cambodian Bloods! 🇰🇭🫶🏼You should do a documentary next or in the future! 💯
Hello
Tommy Coming At you with another BANGER keep the grind up!
They seemed hella chill , god bless them.
Introducing the Cambodian Don Cheadle! LOL but for real, thank you for putting out this vid! Nice work!
I appreciate you tappin in to the West of Stockton. I moved in 2019 but I’ll always have love for my hometown. 👊🏾💯
You know it’s really ghetto when someone running for city council has hand tattoo and big ass ear piercing 😭
Nun wrong with that.
@@itzsace2733 didn’t say anything was wrong lol just saying how ghetto Stockton is
You’re just not used to seeing real people in politics. No more candlewax figures homie
Who else better to make changes in the hood, than someone who grew up there, and made positive changes in his own life, now wanting to give back.. I think it's honorable. And he able to have a real impact where a square can't! Respect Henry Rodriguez District 4
What’d u expect when all the boomers going out and that’s obviously the next generation going into politics.
I work nights in the ED in Stockton, and even though it is a very violent area, there are a lot of good people trying to get by and just live their lives too.
as a student at university of the pacific in stockton this vid such a cool perspective as they don't give you much reason to leave campus
I really appreciated how nobody had to pull a gun out to look cool these dudes seemed legitimately solid and chill
Except shorty with the chopper 2x, not sure why Tommy blurred it out

I love how they mention Cambodian history🇰🇭 Javn putting us out there and giving us the recognition we deserve💗💯
Javn gonna be big, been listening to him for a good minute, dope to see all of them on here!
I remember going to school with him, although I grew up around crips, I just hope he continues to grow, he was pretty chill even though I barely knew him
@@King_Ced so long as they keep moving smart, I see nothing but great things ahead for em.
This man takes no breaks, one week after another💪🏾. Keep it up bro. Love the content 🔥
As some one who grew up in Stockton. You definitely nailed it

stop while u can please
I see the facial hair. Out of nowhere

You should interview Stockton rapper Acito he’s from Stockton California the Norte
Great video as always Tommy G! Plugged me into a dope artist!! Much respect the crew! 🤙🏾🤙🏾
A moment of appreciation for Tommy’s joke that went unnoticed….”is that car a Bissan?” 😂
Bro thank you! Had to stop at 3:38 to say everything ya'll speaking on is real shit! I've thru the darkest places and met some of the most beautiful people! also, them Stockon boys dont play! I was just up there. Mad love from LA homies!
Hey man I absolutely love your videos and please keep up the grind
Tommy helped me with College Sociology this semester, thanks for your vids guy🤌🏽
Nice people! I am from Amsterdam and these kind of video's show that people around the world are all the same.
😂 you must be a drug runner
Bloods is one of the easiest gangs to join. One of my nerdy white friends joined bloods. He's such a loser, but the bloods recruited him because he hangs out with blood members. He acts like he's a gangster now, but he's still a loser to me.
I lost it when he asked the bloods “Are you guys allowed to eat blue berry muffins?” lmao
lol 😅😅
Thank you 🙏🏼 for showing Stockton love.
Nah man i love tommy. Best documentary videos on tourube
Javn2900 is hella underrated 🔥💯
My hometown. I haven't been back since year 2000.I used to play softball at Louis Park. The Cambodians in Stockton are cool when your cool with them.
Tommy G came a long way from prank videos. Dope content dude. Keep on going. You got something special happening.
209! Much love from Modesto, Califas. Stockton is no joke, that’s for sure, you would have to see it in person or be shown the whole city in this video to really see what it’s like. I met a lot of Cambodians here in the 209 back in the day when I was in the Honda scene and I used to hangout with one of my old bestfriend’s Shane who drove a Red Ek with a Type R in it and he knew a lot of Cambodians even though he was Indian because they are all into Honda’s too usually so I was always meeting a lot of them from Modesto and Stockton and those guys don’t mess around.
Everyone in this video was so kind and uplifting.
The channel just gets better and better! Much love from across the Pond in the UK
CAMBODIA AND THE KHMER PEOPLE NEED MORE LOVE NO MATTER WHERE THEY LIVE I used to work in Cambodia for an NGO researching and discovering genocide killing fields from the Pol Pot years. Words do not put into context how much that one man fked up an entire country. Almost half the entire population that didn't escape was either murdered or starved to death, and it's estimated by psychologists that 50% of Cambodians over the age of 35 have moderate to severe PTSD.
I knew many Cambodian, Vietnamese, & Laotians (obv, growing up in Stockton). One of my good friends, Keo, survived in the Cambodian jungle with her family for years, hiding, as her grandfather had been in the government. They came to Stockton in the 70s, and nobody knew, but she was older than all the other kids at school. She never told me everything they endured, but it was horrific.
I lost touch with her after I moved to Sacramento, and still think of her. Wish I could find her. Hope she's doing good.
The Khmer Rogue had no effect on the younger generation of Cambodian Americans. It’s weird to see them claim ptsd from Pol Pot when they weren’t even a nut in their daddy’s balls yet 😂
Mad props to this group tho 👏
And great video bro 🤙🏻🥷
Respect for the brotha who wants to do better for his hood. Straight blessing
crazy that tommy grew like this i been here since 12k, i love and appreciate what you go through to show the background and lifestyle of different communities, if u see this i hope and pray you go to NY Bronx one day and show people how it is

Dude, your videos are amazing! It's good to see that everything isn't black or white like the media likes to portray and that even in the wildest spots you've been around all humanity isn't lost. Lots of f'd up shit going on for sure, but in the end it's all humans trying to create a better life for themselves and their families.

Fun fact, Stockton elected its youngest mayor in its history who was 26 when elected. Used to hate visiting family out there from the Bay Area cuz it was just such a boring place. But my cousins who were Filipino were also bangers and hung out with fellow Cambodians, they made things a lil more interesting. It’s a rough place to be, but it makes sense when there’s not much to do but to gang up and form a sense of community. Not always pretty, but it is what it is.
Love how you did this!!!!
If no one else has noticed, Tommy G is always around good ass people. Which can only mean one thing, and that’s that he is a good ass person to the core. Literally never judges anybody, finds something in common with every single person he interviews, and is always willing to learn and see things from someone else’s point of view. You have a good thing going sir. Much love ❤️
Much Respect for tapping in with the Cambodian Bloods, definitely would be sick if you can do one with the Silent Murder Crips up in Brooklyn.
An interview with “Silent” Murder Crips is the craziest oxymoron ever. Ain’t that the dudes on Vice lmfao “Fight Back”! “Fight back”!!

thank you tommy for representin' the 209! I'm an old cat compared to these kids, but i grew up in a town over from stockton (Manteca). Stockton is its own world. thank you for showing the truth.
Shout out all cambos man y’all good ppl coming from a Lao dude from Texas 🤘🏾
Stockton used to have a huge sign on highway 5 that said “STOCKTON, A BEAUTIFUL PLACE TO LIVE “
I know this is weird... But honestly they seem like decent people that grew up in some unfortunate circumstances. I respect they guide the youth away from it. Hope life gets better for them. ✌️
