You can tell Chris is desperate for acceptance and to be taken seriously, and gangs are breeding grounds that prey on that type of mentality, they lure you in with all that 'love, family, 100%' sort of thing, but there's limited love in that shyt, it's all based on greed, and power, manipulation, deceit, exploitation, etc etc....That's all it really is. Those type of people generally have limited love for THEIR own, much less Chris, little choir boy bytch that he is. I bet Chris doesn't see it as extortion, just taking 'care of the homies', who he met likely while at clubs in LA, surrounding areas, bottle service and after hours...and he feels like he's one of them, which gives him credibility and them some extra paper and an extra foot in the celeb/Hollywood world....this happens all the times on all levels, wouldn't surprise me if neither party even considered it extortion, but it's predatory in nature, which is enough...it's a shame people with money fall for this sort of thing all the time, and usually it leads nowhere good...A friend of mine, a friends cousin really, who i knew since he was 14, got shot in the head a few months ago, murdered in a similar situation, he was the 'Chris'....
