The Taupes and The Mauves won't mess with you, unless you bump 'em and spill their latte. Then there's gonna be conflict and consequences.

Check out the FBI Uniform Crime Report some time. Check out the crime stats for cities over 500K. Seattle is near the bottom.

Washington state also has one of the highest concentrations of concealed firearms. That probably mellows the tone of The Taupes and The Mauves somewhat.

I personally think the OP should spend a week in Oakland and see if he stands by his current statement.

What bothers me is I don't even know what most of these groups are and what they represent.

Bigballer53, I am sorry you have to live in that environment. Stay safe.

-It is.
-I grew up in Rainer Beach, Beacon Hill, and Hilltop Tacoma
-Those are all black and asian neighborhoods, I'm white
-I now live in Renton which is South of Rainer
-Not so much gangs but they do cause ALOT of violence
-If you don't mess with them and show respect to what they do.
-They won't mess with you.
