in parts of compton, on the east side of south central, parts of inglewood and the low bottoms/watts. Go to Carson and Gardena, the majority of Inglewood, West LA for gang banging with nice neighborhoods
Why do people say California hoods look safe, no hoods look safer than New York City

Those aren’t hoods tho. I’m talking actual hoods. Carson has never been no damn hood.
but carson is active lol stevenson village, 190 ecbc especially, piru/blood hoods
I notice LA dudes consider places hoods that will literally be consider safe suburbs in other cities. And I’m not talcn about aesthetically. I mean actual danger wise
Example it’s suburbs in Dallas way more dangerous than Carson and all these other Cali suburbs, but no one considers them “hood” or “active”

Zay touched on it, but it's generally personal in California too. Most Bloods and Crips have friends and family from a rival area, it's only like 1 outta 10 that are super banged out, don't fukk with rivals, etc...Nah I was attempting to imply that New York doesn't do the banging for the sake of it shyt. Majority of beefs here are directly personal shyt.
Dudes would be in a gang and ONLY have beef with a specific group of individuals from a different one, but it won't really turn into a full on gang vs gang beef.
Mostly because of the structure of the city. It's not really feasible to claim a whole neighborhood. And we like to get fly, so that color banging shyt is a dub.
Not saying Cali nikkas ain't fly but y'all are limited just saying
There's always gonna be misperception from outsiders on the functionality of California gangs. 99% of gangs aren't claiming entire neighborhoods, they turf is only a few blocks before you get to the next area...
We aint limited in the flyness either but it's all good
You’d be surprised how some chains differ according to locationWow, when I lived in NYC I use to eat at that Union Square Popeyes all the time!
Small world
To me, Florida Popeyes and various NYC Popeyes I been too taste the same.... Popeyes is a chain, yall really think some Popeyes tastes better than others?
Wing Stop in NYC is
Wing Stop in the Phoenix area is
I actually thought he meant Fordham and GC when he said that. Above that ain’t bad but when you go south of Fordham GC it’s a different ball gameHe must've been to yankee stadium or the courts because that's the only place where Grand Concourse is clean and crawling with cops. The Hoe Dasity of some of these nikkas
I’m from The Bronx and have no idea what Italian cheese from Kennedy is

Pooping on your head :umad:
Italian cheese from Kennedy is most likely multiple cheeseburger patties in a hero bun, I never ordered that from there but I have seen it on the menuYou’d be surprised how some chains differ according to location

This is definitely not true, ABZ and TRG have an active beef in Long Beach. They got some talented rappers but they value being active gang members more than they do rap careers.
Wah Ching and others are definitely still around too.
A lot of them just purposely don't make waves because it's bad for business.
Just cause the majority of Carson is single family homes,gated complexes, and everything off Turmont looks relatively "nice" doesn't mean the Scottsdales, Stevenson Village and other spots aren't hood.
part of the reason that 190's are extra'd out is cause Carson has always had the reputation of where well to do blacks moved in the late 60's and 70's and they had to prove they weren't soft compared to Long Beach and Compton.
You missed my point
I’m not saying areas that LA ppl consider a hood are not bad enough to be considered hoods in other cities
If you dropped Carson off in the DFW, no one would consider it a hood. There are areas out here a lot more dangerous than Carson and no one considers them a hood
You know watching Boyz N the Hood as a kid I would say to myself "it looks beautiful there, palm trees, lawns, houses" I lived in a regular NYC block that looked a bit grimy in comparison, at least in NYC we had a reason to be angry, all stacked up on top of each other. This was my thinking as a kid. lol
"No borders between billionaires & beggars" that's a good movie or book title.
I think as an outsider we learned about yall hoods from film and music. So we couldn’t imagine a safe looking area being dangerous. But it can happen anywhereA lot of what people have been trained to view as dangerous simply just doesn't work in LA.
You show them the Overhills,West Adams or the Jungles, and in their mind there is no way that it could be dangerous cause there are plants, houses with yards that people take care of,parks and picturesque views.
Even riding down Alameda, they'd still be like
Maybe they could’ve back then less cameras, dudes still kinda had integrity being a rat wasn’t respected. I remember my first cell phone I had didn’t have a camera on it. It was a flip phone. These cameras and high technology slowed up a lot of activity too.
