In LA, New York, Minneapolis, and Chicago you will find a larger population of blacks into other things like punk rock, skin head, the rave scene, rock n roll, etc. But, as to why so many black people adhere to the stereotypical rap/r&b thing is simple-it's an identity issue, which is effed up because that just keeps the racism ball rolling.
As for Compton-I was always under the impression that there were more Koreans living there then anyone else, and that there were still more whites living there then blacks, but what do I know, I was born in Santa Monica, lived in Venice.
As for white as white can be-I bet a hondo that that is a reference to "Hey world, I live in the suburbs, in a mostly-if not all-white community and I believe in everything that FOX news tells me." If you can't tell the difference between a shady situation and a safe one, then well, you need to get out more. I bit my tongue on that one.
As for hispanic gangs not really messing with whites, well I think thatt you can chalk that up to three things-Black gang members hate hispanics, so it is recipicol. Most whites show an indifference towards hispanics-at least on the outside, and-in the prison system-Aryan Nation is aligned with the southern Mexican gangs.

Compton's whites and Latinos split for O.C. after the Watts Riots. The Latino population of the CPT today consists of illegal immigrants and their kids and is totally distinct from the old Chicano population of the old Compton. I don't think there are too many Asians there.

2. Even though it's dangerous today Compton was much worse during the crack epidemic with 1993 as it's peak with 90 as murder rate.
3. The city is enough safe during the days while u shouldn't even thinking of driving through there during night.
4. About 13.5% of the inhabitants are unemployed
etc.
And the biggest reason I know that he lies is because he said that there are a lot of murders while there aren't that many rapes. How can he know that there aren't many rapes unless he just checked the reports on this site? And I'm pretty sure the rape rate is much higher than the crime report says because a lot of them don't get reported. It's pretty obvious this kid just looked at the facts on this site and then says he's from Compton.
Anyway, you all may still have doubts but I guess I just can't convince you. Doesn't matter that much though, good bye!

That was an interesting question and a challenge. I found this for New Jersey so I'd bet the same process applies for California:
My hospital closed. How can I locate my hospital’s administrative records or
patient medical record?
Answer:
You should contact New Jersey State Licensure office. Hospitals usually
make arrangement with other hospitals or warehouse their records; they
usually notify the State Department of Health about how and where the
medical records will be stored.
Contact:
New Jersey Licensing, Certification and Standards
Division of Health Facilities Evaluation and Licensing
P.O. Box 367
Trenton, New Jersey 08625
(609) 292-7228
california obtaining OR obtain "medical records" hospital closed - Google Search
