but yeah man when I was in highschool (mid 90's) they weren't on the radar like that as far as media attention and people false claiming, but of course sht was going DOWN back then too ... :mjlol: now when I went away to college, my mom would tell me how the police were all over the neighborhood that day and dudes running through our yard trying to escape from getting caught...sht like that had happened so many times my mom offered one dude that we knew a bottled water while he was hiding in our back yard :mjlol:
:dead:

Yeah man, those boys used to be WILD. I never lived i that neighborhood. But just by going to CMS Schools my 1st year of high school, the notoriety of those boys spread across the city. And I have church friends who live there, so I'm down there in that neighborhood every month or so. It's ALOT nicer and quieter now. WAAAY Quieter. Birds chirping, kids playing. It feels more like Mayberry nowadays than it does Gangland. But back in the mid-00's? MY LORD!! :whew:

I never said Brown Pride wasn't Sureno's. I'm just saying which set each repped and what each claimed out there mouths. There brothers, you really think one about to rep Norteno's and the Surenos? :heh:

It was the same neighborhood, the older was jumped into Brown Pride and by the time the younger brother was old enough to claim, he wanted the respect from the OG's and went straight to them and said he wanted a head to toe from them and not the pewee's. His brother was there when it happened cause like you said there all one in the same, but there not. Amongst other things, this is why he was putting in some major non drug related work and was approached by someone outside the "hood."

Here on the southside of Chicago, I pretty much did the neutral shyt, didn't ask for problems and generally don't get them. My two half big brothers on the westside some former goons though, but they in they 30s now and trying to be decent fathers for their lil ones.

Still though, be feeling legit :merchant: when around they nikkas at times....be worried if I'm about to get jacked or some shyt. :pachaha:

Yep. When I was about 11 to when I was 18, had a kid and grew out of it I was heavy into the DYT. We basically fought with crosse posse linty goucho and other young teams because we lived in different areas.

Used to carry a knife everywhere I went, seen people get stabbed seen people bring swords and crossbows to fights as well. Got stabbed in the back of the head myself but I don't think that was gang related, was more to do with football.

I'll say it had a real negative impact on me. I'm constantly wary of people I don't regognise and I'm still uncomfortable walking through certain areas and have been chased a few times. (I'm only 20 so it really wasn't long ago I was involved). It also started me drinking and smoking at a very young age which can't have been good for me.
Does violence bring alot of Irish people to alcohol

SouthSide, MPLS
Told fam straight up.. "You want me to hate the whites over skin color but youll kill another Black man over the cover of fabric???" I grew up with gang members but Im not killing another black man over that...

I realize some people want payback for the lives lost but thats the plan, keep us killing ourselves......

My Highschool took on a rather radical change around the time the East Coast West Coast media driven shyt was going on. I went in on another thread about that shyt, but it pretty much caused dudes who lived on the Eastern side of the island (Called East End) to beef with dudes on the Western Side of the island (West End) over shyt that pretty much wasn't there the summer before this shyt.

Dudes claiming turf and throwing up the American West Side Symbol like that shyt supposed to represent them and that bullshyt. I wasn't privy to none of this shyt but as a dude living in East End, the first time I got pushed off of a block by some West Dudes and a bunch of other East Dudes saw, came up and starting swinging I was like :gladbron: :obama:. Had this been a year earlier, them dudes would have ran up to see me fight instead of jumping in, but this shyt brought about a sort of retarded camaraderie between dudes, but in retrospect it was all counter productive bullshyt since America back then was seen as some sort of Lifestyle Entertainment Mecca that only a select few people got to go live in. T'was bullshyt brehs, but I never went out of my way to dissuade myself from that shyt and sorta rolled in the East Circles after being upgraded from Clown nikka to "East Man" for a bit.

....shyt all went to seed when they jumped this one dude and broke his jaw, something very serious since we ain't never had that back then. Ain't never had cops come into the school outside of the end of term Water Balloon wars and I wasn't about to get snatched up repping shyt I didn't believe in 'cause I watched BET a few too many times and felt like I associated with that shyt.:beli:
Sounds like you're from St.Croix?
