Organized crime is organized crime and the prison gangs can have a big impact on street life. They are also connected to the cartels. See, I live in a border city so the reality on the ground may not reflect Wikipedia.

Prison gangs do have a big impact on the street, that is true. But to suggest a lot of latinos have relatives involved with the Mexican Mafia is nonsense. Any ties the Mexican Mafia may have with the cartels is irrelevant as most criminal organizations across the world have ties to cartels.

I remember you writing something about living in one of the safest cities in California. Please tell us what IS the reality on the ground?

I am prohibited from calling you out on a public thread>?LOL
I'm responding to the bolded UrbanLuis you're twisting yourself into a pretzel to spin posts to suit what you either want them to say or what you think they say but you've been off several times I just don't have the patience to break it down and it's hard to read you jacked up the quoting to start with now every time I quote what you say it's a mess.

Nope I don't have a low opinion of Latino's in general I have a low opinion of the criminals.


I mentioned something about Brazilian prostitutes you're the one who butted in that post thinking you had to stick up for Brazilians because they're Latino. The funny thing is I probably have more Latino's and Brazilians I socialize with then you living up there Canada. I have them in my family spent Christmas, Thanksgiving and the other holidays with them but yeah sure I hate them.

No I don't think everyone hates Latinos Though your president was elected based on the fact he said was going to build a wall to keep Latinos out. Even your friend gentoo wrote brown people are the most hated in the US right now. Are you really going to deny the anti-Latino sentiment in the US right now?

Butted in? This a discussion forum. Just because you have a family and know Latinos doesn't mean you can't have low opinions about them. You look silly trying to deny it. You have gone on page after page about Latinos.

Oh how convenient. So you chose Latinos as an example. What a coincidence.

Why because you say it is? Your inability to understand this is not a valid argument against me. AFP does not live in Canada, he lives and works in California with the very people we are talking about. Please tell me, on what planet have you spent most of your time on to make you think you know more than those that are around it every day? If you can give me a sensible and logical explanation, I'll consider what you're saying.

This is true and I've been saying for years that we don't go after the gangs hard enough they've set up shop in a city about 45 minutes from where I live, and human trafficking is their focus. They're going out to the surrounding cities and kidnapping girls. Not long ago about 10 minutes from where I live four guys in a car tried to kidnap a girl. They managed to catch one of them it was a human trafficking ring.
