Interesting, MPD has a brochure on gangs in the city. It even gives you the location to the gang "war zones". African American gang war zones are N of Brodway. The Latino gang war zones are around 35 W and Lake St.

pay mind that this data is from 2001-2002. That data isnīt necessarily relevant today.

Slig...What is relevant today? I think the link is fascinating. Is there more recent data?

That brochure did not mention that Sur 13 is a Los Angeles based gang. |

the funniest part of that document is how they point out the Old Colony gas station for some reason or another.
Most of the northside tends to be smaller less organized gangs like the Tre Tre Crips, Emerson Murder Boys, 19 Block Dip Set, Lowry/Lyndale Boys, etc etc. |

The names these kids come up with. LOL, ROFL and all that other jazz! I know that this is a serious situation, but wouldn't you want a tough sounding name for your gang?

|
a name like Lowry/Lyndale Boys really limits your jurisdiction doesnt it?
"where do you wanna go now?" "lets go to Lowry Food Mart again" "nah lets go to the Thai Deli" "thats on 31st, we dont rep that block" "aw ****" |
