eastave13z is on a distinguished road
[quote=Humboldt1;5818503]I am 6'2, 190lbs guy and I could easily take almost anyone in a physical confrontation such as a fist fight. However, if they have a gun or there are more than 2 of them, which is often the case with gang bangers it is not a fight I am interested in losing.

I walk by gangbangers everyday coming and going from my car and I have never had any problems. I leave them alone and they leave me alone. I don't care what they do so long as they do not do it on my street. We seem to have this understanding that I will not make problems for them if they do not make problems for me. When they see a white guy in a suit they either assume I am police or someone they don't want to mess with as it would bring unwanted extra police patrols to the area which would hurt business.

you heard about that store owner that got killed either on cicero and north or in humboldt park a few days ago...everyone in the neighborhood knew him, he was a white guy his dad was a cop and he got the store from him and he told some drug dealers early that day to hit the road and they told him they will kill him and he was dead later that night; so if they want to pop you they wont care if it brings extra police presence, which it will bring for a few but then it will level off. You remember what happened to that off duty cop Soto; they knew he was an off duty detective and they still killed him.

pure speculation. the cops will just scare you. it's a scare tactic. once there's fear, these cops gets to have a job to keep. no crime/criminals no police jobs. think about it.

Humboldt Park used to have a gang called the Insane Unknowns. They used to torch bldgs.

People vs Folks. The pitchfork is people? Folks?

Every time i've visited Chicago I felt quite safe. Although it does have a gang history, I'm sure there must be worse areas.

It's easy to identify some Chicago latino gang members because of that. I don't see non gang-members rocking the hair style.
It look like they brought the 80s style back. Like this dude,
