Simon City Royals may still have a handful of white members, but at least here in the city they are predominantly Hispanic these days.

They are not street gangs and do not pose a threat to ordinary people going about their business.

Extinct, but I heard they have a few sets out in the suburbs of illinois. They use to be heavy around Fullerton and Kilbourn Park. It would be impossible for them to survive these days with a name like that. They did use to be one of the biggest gangs on chicagos Northside. Most white gangs you see now survived by recruiting minorities. Simon City Royals, C-notes to name a few the others went extinct

ChicagoGangs.org Website
If you really did research the Gay Lords, you would have found their official website. I looked at it within the past year, the front page had a photo of a bunch of White teens dressed as football players stacked on top of each other forming a pyramid or something.

Assuming it is their official website, that should be the most authentic information.

I personally know a White former Gay Lord, he's in his 50s, grew up in Logan Square, etc.
