Tensions in LA (neighborhoods, gangs, moving)

[Mint Green]

I have a complex question and it may sound stupid, but I was wondering do you think that the recent tension between blacks and browns in LA are from California's liberal policies? Because I have not heard of any problems similar to this in places like Texas, Arizona, and other places that could have the potential to face similar situations. The problems in LA seem to be escalating from the street level to politics. I was wondering if anybody had some knowledge on the issue?

This may sound extreme but there is going to be a race war in
Los Angeles. Not riot, war. As mexicans are moving into traditionally black neighborhoods the pressure is building. Mexican gangs are killing innocent blacks to send a message basically to get out.
You can only put so many fish in a fish tank.
Yes it sounds extreme.

Ah, the joys of diversity.

I have been "listening" to the Californians who are moving here to North Texas, trying to find the answer to that same question. But the Californians can't articulate an answer. All they know is that "I moved here to save money.", but they can't explain why the situation in California has gotten to the point that they had to leave it.

Well, it wouldn't be the first time LA has had riots.

I think it might have to do with available space.
