Seems like the founder of AP had the biggest heart and really looked out for his people on and off the streets, gotta respect a gangsta who actually displays some class.
The 16 year old kid from WF that killed Armen Petrosyan(RIP Silent) also escaped from Los Podrinos Juvenile detention center and took off to Mexico and got away with the murder. He had his family bring him a cake for his Bday(back then the juvenile detention center would allow that) inside that cake was a .25 semi automatic handgun. He used that gun and strong armed his way out of the facility and disappeared into the night to be never found again.
I was never a gangster but grew up in LA mid city / Hollywood/ watts. I’m 40 years old. And in the mid 90s you heard a lot about these guys putting in work. Life is crazy, hope some people in this video are doing ok
Pls nvr stop ur content or a anything about it just keep them videos coming and coming. I shared ur channel with my coworkers and during lunch we talk about what videos we watched and all. Do Orange County where im from
I knew an Armenian vato called PRIMO from WF, that vato was firme, and his Jefita, his brother, they were good people, his pops was always angry about something , but he never disrespected me or any of the other lil foos that used to live in that area, He was good Gente too
I grew up in Hollywood around this 2 gang rivales, when to Leconte Jr high school, graduated 84 and then Hollywood high 87, it was very tuff to go around western and Santa Monica, Hollywood and western, Hollywood and Normandie.. God bless Armenian community and the Spanish community 🙏 🙏
Nerses from the restaurant shooting is a real good friend if mine. The shooting info in this video is slightly innacurate only one of the victims was from the hood at the time, his name was Vartan, furthermore Nerses, the shooter was not from AP either. I met Nerses in jail, I was actually in LA county jail w him in 2008 where i turned myself in to catch the chain to go upstate, in the medical about 50 ppl dorms at old county dtla, he was one of the solidest homies I had ever met and I shared plenty of spreads w him and other brothers. This guy would go out of his way to help you with anything he possibly could all while he was fighting the Death Penalty for 4 or five murders. The cops would always cut up all the newspapers before they gave them to us so he wouldn't be able to read about his own case that got a lot of media attention at the time. We all kept on making up fake injuries so they wouldn't move us from the medical dorm cuz it was a good group of us in there, naturally, it's impolite to ask what happened but if anyone asked him he always said it was a misunderstanding he was just buying food to go at the restaurant using a stolen credit card so the cops nabbed him. Matter of fact, the homies asked him plenty of times that they could jump him in right there in the dorm so he could claim the hood, AP, but he always politely refused, this was while fighting his case of course so maybe after getting Life he might have chosen to join later, I just don't know. When I got busted I had like half an Oz of black on me so naturally I put it in my prison purse and got it out once I hit that dorm, I remember we were living like kings there cuz of that, half the dorm was nodded and scratching, but one thing I remember all four of us were high af for a week except Nerses he never touched it once, furthermore then a day later some guy from Venice came in w a lot of crystal so naturally we made a nice little trade and were using that also but again Nereses never did it, which was crazy and i was always thinking if it was me facing all them charges i would wanna be High all day but he was a strong ass solid homie, for real. Those other motherfuckers he got were trying to pressure his young brother to sell drugs for them cuz he knew a lot of people in that scene but he always refused , and nerses also told him not to sell dope under any circumstances, for anybody, period. so then they started clowning him and ridiculing him after they saw that there was no changing his mind, nerses is a gentle giant type character so imagine the shit those motherfuckers did that drove this level headed dude to loose it that much and murk all of them that day and BTW they were shooting trying to kill him and his brother also it was a shootout not just him killing them one by one like a psycho , so imagine the shit they said or did or were gonna do to his brother that made him get his gun from the car. ponder on that if ur related to one of the victims. Then finally, after a week together the big homie asked us to DP some puto 13 seconds boobop after chow and we did but Nerses accidentally landed a punch sideways or something and broke his wrist, so they took him to the hospital next day and next day came got his stuff, didn't see him again after that, they just re housed him somewhere else. But ya stay up homies and keep it thoro, much respect to the homie nerses that i met in county and ended up a good friend. I hope even nowadays everything is good for the homie even now. This us my wife's account BTW I am Armenian so don't look at the account name, they call me Stretch. Anyways, I went upstate a year later and paroled two years after that, from Firecamp. Peace to all the Armenian homies, vopshem lav exek txerk. Duces.
When I was a kid, I went to Toll Middle school and had detention the day Raul was killed, I'm 36 now but I'll never forget that day. It was Friday and I had to stay an hour or so longer at school for detention. When I walked out of the school next to the "Malt Shop" I saw almost the entire thing happen, didn't stick around long enough but I saw the altercation.. Came back to school on Monday to hear the sad news. Raul's little sister was in my PE class on Monday and I remember thinking about how eerie it is knowing I pretty much saw that poor girls brother get murdered a few days prior. Such a sad loss, he was a young man literally trying to diffuse a situation and ended up getting killed over it. RIP
Bro thanks for the stories and keeping it respectful and not make jokes about situations where people lost their lives! Unlike war in Cali that decided to start making light of serious situations
Niiiice.. much love and respect from an Armenian that immigrated to Australia as a 12 yr old and lived here for 28 years now. Still proud of my heritage 🇦🇺🇦🇲🇦🇺🇦🇲🇦🇺🇦🇲
Me being Persian and having an Armenian step-father who lives around Glendale/La Crescenta, I am actually very surprised that there is an Armenian gang in California. I never knew about it after all of those years of living here. Interesting.
@@Akagsharif that is very interesting. I tried to look up North-side Taliban Bloods in Salt Lake City, but I couldn’t find anything at all. Though I don’t understand why they would name themselves after the Taliban if they aren’t even Afghan. The only information I could find about Persian gangs is about a gang called Persian Pride. They were a Persian gang that was active in LA during the 1990’s, but now they are currently active in Canada. I’ve been to nearly every Persian neighborhood in LA, but still have never seen or heard about the existence of Persian gangs. I’ve been to Westwood, Century City, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Burbank, Palos Verdes, Torrance, Woodland Hills and Encino, but still never seen or heard anything. I’m not saying that Persian gangs don’t exist in America, but I just never heard of them. It might be because the Iranian immigrants in LA are more successful than the ones in Salt Lake City, but that’s just my theory anyways.
There was a Iranian who is half Indian who looks like he works at 7/11 by the name of Fedidoon who lives in the valley and claims to have started SFV/SOUTHSIDE SAND NIGGERS.
Man I was in wasco reception back in 2010 homie that had the yard was an Arminian from AP active as dude all tatted n he was direct contact to someone I left back to high desert heard homeboy got validated right after I left.. He was a lifer active dude tho
Armeninan's are some of the coolest dudes ive met in the L.A. County Jail and in prison. Much love and respect to my Armenians i was busted with. Big shout out to Turtle from AP 💯
@@hitter9195 The reality is these dudes are tight with each other. They live and die for Armenia but also mostly cool with Mexicans if we live with each other and among each other. Which is the case in Hollywood and Glendale. I think their hatred of MS and Salvadorians is that Mexicans hate them so much and it is a different culture even though we are both Latinos
ARMOS are some solid Mfs!!! I grew up with them and me being a fearless 🇲🇽 we fucked up a bunch of lame ass idiots starting dumb drama..rest in peace GOR/QUIBO! You are all family with us MEXICAS thanks to my brother 3lleven and his mom for the hospitality when I was broke..thanks for helping me carnales 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽 🇦🇲 🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲
WS Harpy's is all around USC. There was another click around 10th Ave by Washington and they expanded a bit in the 90's to grab all the small gangs that were beefing with 18, MS, Crips, and Clanton. All those gangs along with the Bloods were grabbing all the tag bangers back then.
I was locked up w a few homies from that AP gang.. They push that 13 as hard as any another Sureño. Solid brothers that are abt that feria & all that action.
I'm Mexican American and my old lady is from Burbank, her parents are originally from Armenia. My wife learned Spanish growing up with Latinos. One of my cousins, she's married to one of my old homies from back in the day in San Diego and he's also Armo. We make beautiful children. Love and respect to my Armenian homies 🇺🇸🇲🇽🇦🇲😎✌
FYI That pic at 5:16 With the girls holding the Sun Valley T-shirt Is not the Sun Valley Vineland Boys gang Its the Sun Valley Sol Trece gang which predated the Vineland Boys in the 70’s
I grew up in Glendale. We had a few skirmishes with these dudes. This neighborhood runs pretty deep. A few Armenians went the other way and joined TVR and BTR. For the most part, I have several Armenian friends. It's just like any other race. We have our good and bad apples.
Some of even went to BTC Big Time Criminals and Westside Locos. Both of them were never really big gangs but they did exist at some point back in the days.😂
We are U.S. citizens. Citizens of the United States. The United States is a country but America its not a country America its a continent. The whole entire continent was already named America 269 years way before the United States of America became a nation or even existed. Everyone on the American continent is an American likewise Asia are Asians, Africa are Africans and Europe are Europeans. 🤦
Some of my homies are from AP the way they greet and help each other is mad dope nothing but respect to them as a matter of fact cause some my homies are Armenian I learned to call random people buligs 😂
ARMENIANS ARE THE TRUE,"POCOS PERO LOCOS" Clan.. Many people are not informed nor aware that, Armenians are only a population of no more than 8 million strong around the world-- 8 million Armenians is not a lot.Armenians should be treated like a Little Brother. God Bless Armenians for withstanding so much tragedy and misfortunes in their history and always being fighters for Justice, Christianity and even being tough in the Thug Life.
I remember the Hollywood high incident, I was at football practice when Sycamore st started harassing Armenians. Saddest thing one kid I new from Bancroft Jr. High was really cool with me and when we got to HHS one year and the kid would mad dog me and flash AP I was like yo for real? You know me from JR high what you mean what set I claim, turns out he needed to make his bones and was looking for anyone, that was sad.
Bro, that’s insane timing. I just started doing research on AP13. Like, yesterday. They appear in GTA 5 as “Armenian Mob.” Seems to be the only pop culture reference to them, so I wanted to learn more. This is exactly what I needed. As always. Thank you bro.
Hey Phil. Have you ever heard of the TV show, back in the early 2000's, Titled "The Sheild"?. It's about a dirty Los Angeles Police officer in the Hollywood area. They reference the "Armenian Mob" Heavy in the show and is apart of the main storyline. It's a Great show. If you haven't watched it, It's very addicting and written very well. The Lead Character is played by actor Michael Chiklis who plays a LAPD Narcotics Officer. In 2002 he won an Emmy for best actor for the role, and in 2003 he won a Golden Globe for the same. Check it out if you get a chance. 👍🏼👌🏽
@@Jackj28 aye HELL Yeah that used to be My Shit! 💯 Wat was his characters name? Wasn't it like Vince Mackie or something like that? White Boy was Super Bad-Ass on that shit 💯💯💯
Cool guys, the oldest people in Europe, basically they are all educated scientists, programmers, entrepreneurs, now they are also here in the USA, deciding to play GTA5
Went to Van Nuys High and some of these guys in the photos look familiar. I heard of a couple being shot and killed a few years after graduating. Early 2000s
I know three guys who are AP members. All three did time. Two in CDC and one in the FBOP. The two state guys have heavy prison tattoos and the guy who did Federal time does not. The thing I like about them is that they not only don't brag about AP, they deny that AP even exists. My son, who is 1/2 WHITE and half Salvadorian went to North Hollywood High and did legit business with some of those kids. They remind me of the old Jewish ✡ gangsters from Chicago. My mother was born in Chicago in 1929 5 months before the stock market crash and the official start of the Great depression. She was Jewish ✡ and my Great uncle owned an umbrella 🌂 factory on Lasalle St. in Chicago. He also was heavily involved in the numbers racket. But like the Jews ✡, the Armenian people don't do crime for street credit or bragging rights, they are very low 🔑 🗝 key.
I went to Hollywood high in the early 90's, I was a Performing Arts Magnet Student, I was also on the Leadership Council and the DJ who played music during Nutrition and Lunch in the quad, and each corner of the quad had one of the big popular groups, the Blacks on the northwest corner the popular whites kids on the southwest corner, a mix of some Mexican from sets that got along and taggers on the southeast corner and the northeast corner was the cool kids(jocks, most popular, performing arts students, leadership and school government kids, the best artist, the toughest, etc...) Commingling but the Armenians run the school, everyday they would walk straight down the center of the quad in a very large group making their presence felt and seen, they sat at the end of the quad area underneath these 3 giant oak trees which during summer gave so much shade there was a good 15-20 degree difference in the temperature there and elsewhere, and under the trees where a bunch of concrete benches to the north were the southeast and southwest quad benches, the benches we're against the main school buildings Sunset Blvd Wing at it's back and if you were sitting there facing north the student store was on the right, and from there past the benches to the entrance gate between the main buildings #1 & #2 was all Armenians.
In the 90s, and even now, Armos don't run Hollywood High. My lil primo went there in the 90s and the Mexis used to tax the Armos every week. He also told me there was a riot with the blacks cos Mexis wanted Techno and Blacks wanted rap/hip hop for the prom. They rioted and shit got crazy. The Armos sided with the Mexis from what I recall. Armos don't have the numbers like the Mexis.
I remember going into a office in Hollywood and the man all in a suit had a pic of 5 guys i asked him whos that he said those are my nephews they are in the Feds doing time. They looked like cholos but they were from Armenia Power... They are some serious ballers they owned property and business in the Hollywood strip all u saw was exotic cars in the parking lot. Homies run SUR 💪
Sounds a bit dysfunctional but Very Dangerous nonetheless. Italian American here and know about a log of organized crime but didn't even know the Armenian mob story on The Shield was based on a true organized crime group. Wow.
@@kx-2333Bro ap was like 300 members, MS and others were in the thousands. Imagine if the Armenians were as much as the Latinos. Besides, Armenian organized crime ain't shit in the US. In Russia, the Armenian sect of the Russian mafia controls entire cities like Sochi, Krasnadar and parts of Moscow.
I dig this type of stuff gangs I haven't heard of 90% of gangs covered are big notorious black or Latino gangs like ms-13 Latin kings bloods crops gangster disciples do more of these smaller less known gangs please
Pretty sure they started before the early 90s, I met 1 of the originals, he drives limos in north Hollywood, we had a good conversation about Gangs in Cali and back home for me in Chicago, bro had knowledge, even knew many of our Gangs in Chicago, Latino and white mobs, he surprised me by knowing about Latin Counts, Almighty Bishops and even the white Northside Gangs Simon City Royals & Gaylords
I thought this video was wild when it “Appeared” spontaneously and included an image of my brother. 😢 Nonetheless, thank you for sharing with your audience!
In ALL THE OTHER HOOD STORIES THERES A LOT OF SNITCHING ,NOT THIS 1 THOUGH ITS ALL PUBLIC RECORD, YES THERES SNITCHES ,GOOD AND BAD IN EVERY RACE, BUT WE DONT EVEN DEAL WITH THE COPS BACK HOME EACH NEIGHBORHOOD WATCHES OUT FOR EACH OTHER AND IF THERES ANY PEDOS ,RAPISTS, OR JUST SICK FUCKSTHAT MOVE IN I GUARENTEE ITS GOING TO BE HANDLED THAT INCLUDES OUT HERE.

La Mirada Locos was a small gang by Hollywood and in the neighborhood of these other gangs. My boy Julio, I called him Platanito, was LMLS. He was a cool dude that looked like Esai Morales.
I got much love and respect for the armians they with the business, all bout the money mafia stile..i see them drive here in México🇲🇽 with Mercedes benz & BMW s.
Hola gentlemen I grew up in Hollywood with a beautiful Armenian girl in my high school days y solid Armenian brothers good people and still do construction busy with them. Califas😜
Some of the people in these pictures are NOT Armenian Power gangsters or gangsters of any kind. Some of these pictures are just groups of friends and the pictures were stolen off the internet. Whoever made this documentary needs some educating.
I lived in Hollywood most of my life I remember walking in Hollywood and Western I'll see a group of O.G Armenians driking in a parking lot they would lift up their shirts to me and show me their guns from far away, letting me know to not fuck with them. I had my own beef to worry about never had a problem with the Armenian Powers , I was always watching my back for the maras that were a couple of blocks down western and santa monica. HOLLYWOOD was always crazy!!! Love my city all tho I almost lost my life in those crazy neighborhoods a coupleof times!!! Thug life 😎
@@Snapppz AP were active but, MS13 Hollywood locos were the most active in east Hollywood those foos are mad grimey over there deep too, they went to war with AP13. I remember hearing that White Fence 13 wanted to have a peace treaty with MS Hollywood locos but they said " No"
I was born and raised in Glendale my mom came to this country with Raul’s mom in the early 70s. We attended Raul’s funeral it was very tragic and sad. I’ve been watching several of this channels videos and have a story for almost all the videos I’ve watched after living in Glendale, Blythe st in panorama city, van nuys, on Vineland in Sun valley, north Hollywood, Pacoima and Burbank in the 90s and 2000s and grew up with a father that was in and out of prison.

That's nice, but mutts still a DO gang. Only got numbers. Why wouldn't you be nice towards civilians? Your statement was pretty obvious.
That's funny because politics could cause some problems. Armenians wouldn't be on the nicest terms with Mutts.

@@hitter9195 The reality is these dudes are tight with each other. They live and die for Armenia but also mostly cool with Mexicans if we live with each other and among each other. Which is the case in Hollywood and Glendale. I think their hatred of MS and Salvadorians is that Mexicans hate them so much and it is a different culture even though we are both Latinos
@@hitter9195 he's doing life
@@jorgeirigoyen2876 im Salvy but get along with them
he went to the other side it's unfortunate
Well Done 👍🏽, keep up the good work

@@Snapppz Gor got killed in Armenia by the armenian special forces. He was holding some girl hostage. So they smoked him. Its on youtube
grasias atiii }
Dope vids, I'd be interested to see your spin on WS Harpy's history. 👏🏽
WS Harpy's is all around USC. There was another click around 10th Ave by Washington and they expanded a bit in the 90's to grab all the small gangs that were beefing with 18, MS, Crips, and Clanton. All those gangs along with the Bloods were grabbing all the tag bangers back then.
I was locked up w a few homies from that AP gang.. They push that 13 as hard as any another Sureño. Solid brothers that are abt that feria & all that action.
@@Guccithejeweler 😅😅
They some solid homies wont fold for anything they take their heritage serious.
So They run with Sur Car , But are Armenian ??? 🤔🤔🤔🤔
@@mylifeisamoviee yup the run Sur and yes they are Armenian.
Part 2 please
I'm Mexican American and my old lady is from Burbank, her parents are originally from Armenia. My wife learned Spanish growing up with Latinos. One of my cousins, she's married to one of my old homies from back in the day in San Diego and he's also Armo. We make beautiful children. Love and respect to my Armenian homies 🇺🇸🇲🇽🇦🇲😎✌
Yo tambien mano. Orale! 🇲🇽 🇦🇲
Armenian homies are crazy! Much love and respect!
I was there in 2000 when that stabbing took place at Hoover high and APs vs TVRs vs Rascals tho 🤞🏿
Great stuff
FYI
That pic at 5:16
With the girls holding the Sun Valley T-shirt
Is not the Sun Valley Vineland Boys gang
Its the Sun Valley Sol Trece gang
which predated the Vineland Boys
in the 70’s
I grew up in Glendale. We had a few skirmishes with these dudes. This neighborhood runs pretty deep. A few Armenians went the other way and joined TVR and BTR. For the most part, I have several Armenian friends. It's just like any other race. We have our good and bad apples.
Like them fools we fucked up on western & and lake... good times!
What is BTR?
@@mpbuali Burbank Trece
Some of even went to BTC Big Time Criminals and Westside Locos. Both of them were never really big gangs but they did exist at some point back in the days.😂
So are there pure Armenian gangs? L
ANOTHER BANGER! 💣💥
We are U.S. citizens. Citizens of the United States. The United States is a country but America its not a country America its a continent. The whole entire continent was already named America 269 years way before the United States of America became a nation or even existed. Everyone on the American continent is an American likewise Asia are Asians, Africa are Africans and Europe are Europeans. 🤦
@@armandoruiz8758 ok
Crazy content.🔥
About time
As a Mexican who grew up in the SGV, them arminians are scary
They literally DGAF but also are super secretive on how they do they’re thing
Hahahah tell that to the Turks 🤣
@@whiteperson1742No turk would beat an average Armenian in a fight. the Turks just had guns back the. And the Armenians didn’t
Some of my homies are from AP the way they greet and help each other is mad dope nothing but respect to them as a matter of fact cause some my homies are Armenian I learned to call random people buligs 😂
Yoooo thats fuckin hilarious beligs lmao
LMAOO🤣🤣
I was busted in Orange County with BadBoy. Dude was comedy and sounded like they had some legit shit going on out there
ARMENIANS ARE THE TRUE,"POCOS PERO LOCOS" Clan..
Many people are not informed nor aware that, Armenians are only a population of no more than 8 million strong around the world-- 8 million Armenians is not a lot.Armenians should be treated like a Little Brother.
God Bless Armenians for withstanding so much tragedy and misfortunes in their history and always being fighters for Justice, Christianity and even being tough in the Thug Life.
I remember the Hollywood high incident, I was at football practice when Sycamore st started harassing Armenians. Saddest thing one kid I new from Bancroft Jr. High was really cool with me and when we got to HHS one year and the kid would mad dog me and flash AP I was like yo for real? You know me from JR high what you mean what set I claim, turns out he needed to make his bones and was looking for anyone, that was sad.
Wow U Knew Him in Middle School ??? Thats SAD 😥
Bro, that’s insane timing. I just started doing research on AP13. Like, yesterday. They appear in GTA 5 as “Armenian Mob.” Seems to be the only pop culture reference to them, so I wanted to learn more. This is exactly what I needed.
As always.
Thank you bro.
Hey Phil. Have you ever heard of the
TV show, back in the early 2000's,
Titled "The Sheild"?.
It's about a dirty Los Angeles
Police officer in the Hollywood area.
They reference the "Armenian Mob"
Heavy in the show and is apart of
the main storyline. It's a Great show.
If you haven't watched it, It's very addicting
and written very well.
The Lead Character is played by actor
Michael Chiklis who plays a LAPD
Narcotics Officer.
In 2002 he won an Emmy for best actor for the role, and in 2003 he won a Golden Globe for the same.
Check it out if you get a chance. 👍🏼👌🏽
@@Jackj28 I remember that show, but never got into it. I’m very happy you led me to it again. I’m gonna check it out. I appreciate you 🤝
@@philrangel2785 Anytime buddy! 👍🏼👌🏽
@@Jackj28 aye HELL Yeah that used to be My Shit! 💯 Wat was his characters name? Wasn't it like Vince Mackie or something like that? White Boy was Super Bad-Ass on that shit 💯💯💯
The show Graceland covers them, they have a big story arc
nice very your videos are very cool homie thank you
YOOOOO THIS WAS BECAUSE IVE BEEN ASKING. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Nobody really knows about ap that's good this video came out shout out to the uploader
SHOUT OUT TO THE ARMENIAN HOMIES AND THE TOONERVILLE VATOS TOO
Great video.
Too bad there was no dialog. I would of been dying if you said 'where you from bro?' with an Armenian accent. 😂
Lmfaooo
Yeah these Ese’s don’t talk like that at all.
Here you go. Straight from the Armenian southsiders ruclips.net/video/tVuXslrCD4s/видео.html
I kno vat chu mean Boss 🆗
Pin this man's comment
Dude they roll deep n loud on Armenian genocide day. Like 100 car convoys stopping traffic on the 101 getting out waving flags & dancing
Cool guys, the oldest people in Europe, basically they are all educated scientists, programmers, entrepreneurs, now they are also here in the USA, deciding to play GTA5
Went to Van Nuys High and some of these guys in the photos look familiar. I heard of a couple being shot and killed a few years after graduating. Early 2000s
This is crazy I wish they made a movie this whole life style in the 90’s has been a movie
I know three guys who are AP members. All three did time. Two in CDC and one in the FBOP. The two state guys have heavy prison tattoos and the guy who did Federal time does not. The thing I like about them is that they not only don't brag about AP, they deny that AP even exists. My son, who is 1/2 WHITE and half Salvadorian went to North Hollywood High and did legit business with some of those kids. They remind me of the old Jewish ✡ gangsters from Chicago. My mother was born in Chicago in 1929 5 months before the stock market crash and the official start of the Great depression. She was Jewish ✡ and my Great uncle owned an umbrella 🌂 factory on Lasalle St. in Chicago. He also was heavily involved in the numbers racket. But like the Jews ✡, the Armenian people don't do crime for street credit or bragging rights, they are very low 🔑 🗝 key.
YOGI WASNT FROM AP, he was radfort street 13, he didn’t get killed, his wife did. by the vineland boy gang, he is my dads close friend till this day
How come there’s a police report about him being shot then?
Im 40yrs old and remember all these episodes. Especially the glenoaks shootings and hollywood silent. Silent was a real one.
Do u ever do story’s in OC
I remember that scuffle that went down back in the days at Grant High.
I went to Hollywood high in the early 90's, I was a Performing Arts Magnet Student, I was also on the Leadership Council and the DJ who played music during Nutrition and Lunch in the quad, and each corner of the quad had one of the big popular groups, the Blacks on the northwest corner the popular whites kids on the southwest corner, a mix of some Mexican from sets that got along and taggers on the southeast corner and the northeast corner was the cool kids(jocks, most popular, performing arts students, leadership and school government kids, the best artist, the toughest, etc...) Commingling but the Armenians run the school, everyday they would walk straight down the center of the quad in a very large group making their presence felt and seen, they sat at the end of the quad area underneath these 3 giant oak trees which during summer gave so much shade there was a good 15-20 degree difference in the temperature there and elsewhere, and under the trees where a bunch of concrete benches to the north were the southeast and southwest quad benches, the benches we're against the main school buildings Sunset Blvd Wing at it's back and if you were sitting there facing north the student store was on the right, and from there past the benches to the entrance gate between the main buildings #1 & #2 was all Armenians.
Lol Armenians never ran Hollywood high you were on drugs fam
big blackie from rebels gang just to run HOLLYWOOD HIGH
Hey Hebrew Loc,
?אתה יהודי ?
@@juanantonioheredia6887 you are crazy, rebels never ran Hollywood high.
In the 90s, and even now, Armos don't run Hollywood High. My lil primo went there in the 90s and the Mexis used to tax the Armos every week. He also told me there was a riot with the blacks cos Mexis wanted Techno and Blacks wanted rap/hip hop for the prom. They rioted and shit got crazy. The Armos sided with the Mexis from what I recall. Armos don't have the numbers like the Mexis.
This one was highly interesting
man another good story good in an very interesting way
What's so interesting about it you no good son of a snake.✌️
I remember going into a office in Hollywood and the man all in a suit had a pic of 5 guys i asked him whos that he said those are my nephews they are in the Feds doing time. They looked like cholos but they were from Armenia Power... They are some serious ballers they owned property and business in the Hollywood strip all u saw was exotic cars in the parking lot. Homies run SUR 💪
Sounds a bit dysfunctional but Very Dangerous nonetheless.
Italian American here and know about a log of organized crime but didn't even know the Armenian mob story on The Shield was based on a true organized crime group.
Wow.
I had no idea there were Armenian gangs. I'm shocked. What an eye opener. Great video.
@Alan Castrocorrection budd , they were deep early 90s but the deepest in the mid 90s
Every group has gangs
@@valodvalodich2994 I'd say MS13 Hollywood locos were the deepest
Then AP and WF, either way all 3 were going at it hard back then
U ain't supposed to u don't bang
@@kx-2333Bro ap was like 300 members, MS and others were in the thousands. Imagine if the Armenians were as much as the Latinos. Besides, Armenian organized crime ain't shit in the US. In Russia, the Armenian sect of the Russian mafia controls entire cities like Sochi, Krasnadar and parts of Moscow.
Good video jan
I dig this type of stuff gangs I haven't heard of 90% of gangs covered are big notorious black or Latino gangs like ms-13 Latin kings bloods crops gangster disciples do more of these smaller less known gangs please
Try some punctuation.
Pretty well known
@@alastairgreen6783 lmao
S/o to the crops Gang 😭
@@alastairgreen6783 Three words is not a complete sentence, use the period correctly.
I've been wanting to hear their story for a long time always wondered how they earned their stripes and earned the 13.. the Armenians don't play
Pretty sure they started before the early 90s, I met 1 of the originals, he drives limos in north Hollywood, we had a good conversation about Gangs in Cali and back home for me in Chicago, bro had knowledge, even knew many of our Gangs in Chicago, Latino and white mobs, he surprised me by knowing about Latin Counts, Almighty Bishops and even the white Northside Gangs Simon City Royals & Gaylords
I thought this video was wild when it “Appeared” spontaneously and included an image of my brother. 😢 Nonetheless, thank you for sharing with your audience!
In ALL THE OTHER HOOD STORIES THERES A LOT OF SNITCHING ,NOT THIS 1 THOUGH ITS ALL PUBLIC RECORD, YES THERES SNITCHES ,GOOD AND BAD IN EVERY RACE, BUT WE DONT EVEN DEAL WITH THE COPS BACK HOME EACH NEIGHBORHOOD WATCHES OUT FOR EACH OTHER AND IF THERES ANY PEDOS ,RAPISTS, OR JUST SICK FUCKSTHAT MOVE IN I GUARENTEE ITS GOING TO BE HANDLED THAT INCLUDES OUT HERE.
Does anyone else try to imitate this guy’s voice cadence randomly throughout the day or is that just me? 🤣
🤣 no but it be funny… go order some food with his voice and cadence…
I’d like a 1/4er…. Some fries … and a large coke.. no ice m!!!
Solid ass vatos I've been on the yard with a few of em and they are all firme sureños and down af
Orale vato
I use to work for some Armenian 13 at a weed grow house they was solid and didn’t care about Crips or bloods lol
Do a story about West Side La Mirada Locos. I used to live in Hollywood, and they would go at it with Temple, CYS, MS, WF,RWST and AP.
Get there very unique gang due did you the location Ordering Hollywood in the red part area and almost k town and I’m not that far from nela so they a have unique list of enemies
La Mirada Locos was a small gang by Hollywood and in the neighborhood of these other gangs. My boy Julio, I called him Platanito, was LMLS. He was a cool dude that looked like Esai Morales.
Do they get along with the other LA MIRADA near Whittier?
I knew stomper from LMLS, use to be a crazy mf, cool ass dude tho crazy stories.
@@josephstalin760 Yes, but they aren't the same.
I got much love and respect for the armians they with the business, all bout the money mafia stile..i see them drive here in México🇲🇽 with Mercedes benz & BMW s.
You did pretty solid the last 2 stories wasn’t gang related tho n some pics of the guys was Armenians with White Fence but overall not bad
Do more SFV gangs
Ay man...they had the auto body shops on lock in Glendale!! And in Encino
They got the car towing game on lock now.
Weed too
Glendale Gary should’ve made a cameo in this video.
Baby girl u my baby girl baby girl?
Dam...I remember all this going down..I went to Hollywood high school
can you post something about active asian gangs?
Armenians are Asian i think
Bro sounds like he smokes an entire pack of cigarettes every hour.
Hola gentlemen
I grew up in Hollywood with a beautiful Armenian girl in my high school days y solid Armenian brothers good people and still do construction busy with them. Califas😜
Some of the people in these pictures are NOT Armenian Power gangsters or gangsters of any kind. Some of these pictures are just groups of friends and the pictures were stolen off the internet. Whoever made this documentary needs some educating.
he does this crap all the time lol
Never pull out your gun unless you're going to use it🤦🏽♂️
I lived in Hollywood most of my life I remember walking in Hollywood and Western I'll see a group of O.G Armenians driking in a parking lot they would lift up their shirts to me and show me their guns from far away, letting me know to not fuck with them. I had my own beef to worry about never had a problem with the Armenian Powers , I was always watching my back for the maras that were a couple of blocks down western and santa monica. HOLLYWOOD was always crazy!!! Love my city all tho I almost lost my life in those crazy neighborhoods a coupleof times!!! Thug life 😎
Western and 8th is where I banged...
I used to live around there too and used to see ms13 memebers in Santa Monica and western the ms13 was very active
Was AP even deadly
@@Snapppz AP were active but,
MS13 Hollywood locos were the most active in east Hollywood those foos are mad grimey over there deep too, they went to war with AP13.
I remember hearing that White Fence 13 wanted to have a peace treaty with MS Hollywood locos but they said " No"
They the ones that beat up Alley Boy ?
Fr ?
I was born and raised in Glendale my mom came to this country with Raul’s mom in the early 70s. We attended Raul’s funeral it was very tragic and sad.
I’ve been watching several of this channels videos and have a story for almost all the videos I’ve watched after living in Glendale, Blythe st in panorama city, van nuys, on Vineland in Sun valley, north Hollywood, Pacoima and Burbank in the 90s and 2000s and grew up with a father that was in and out of prison.
the last time I watched this, I was in Burbank in a hotel room. I am Hungarian but much love to you all. We have LPS 13 here in NorCal.
