It’s funny to me, people who’s never been in the streets, never killed anyone or been close to getting killed, always talking about how people in the streets should conduct themselves. Never felt the heat.... so they don’t know how they would react, themselves. Acting surprised that people be snitching.... don’t y’all know there’s no honor in the streets? Anything built wrong will fall. Just keep watching from the sidelines 🤫
Who ever did the shooting should step up instead of letting everybody go down. No wonder some body gone tell especially if you ain't got on to do with the situation
Respect to the Hawkins family. Their black owned business is still at the same old building across the street from the Nickerson Gardens projects. 40 or 50 plus yrs. Never ran, never hid, never sold business. Stayed 10 toes down and kept pressing on even tho their own people tried to destroy them, literally and figuratively.
What I liked MOST about this video, it's proof that regardless of income level our black parents Always told us to do what's Right. They taught us the Right way then we choose to do the wrong things, some of us learn and grow some stay the SAME or worse.
It's easy for parents to say I've tried my hardest knowing damn well they haven't tried at all, people have kids left and right and just stick them in the room hoping they raise them selfs
Facts like a mf 💯 I got 2 brothers 2 sisters and I'm the only one that was in and out of trouble as a youth.. Because of the choices I made when I stepped outside. Not because of what I learned at home.. That stuff mama said started making sense to me after I found out the hard way! Glad I can say I did learn my lesson tho!
I've experienced The same feeling , When I was a toddler... remember seeing a bunch of Raymond Crips , my step dad my mom and abunch of lowriders and all my step dad's homies and couldn't help but feel an ominous vibe when I was there.... I even remember what the lowrider looked like... It was all white with burgundy seat's and glass cups " imbedded customly " into the seats.
I saw this documentary on PBS when it aired in the 80s. I always wanted to see it again and just a few weeks ago searched the internet for it. Bravo on the uploading of this
They all did like 4 years for that shit. Some less. They took plea deals to keep one of the big homies out the box,he had nothing to do with it so they plead out to free him
And his boys didn't look too pleased about that either! I think he knew things would never be the same afterwards. And what's even more messed up, the police don't care about the outcome of him at all.
Ever wonder how it feels when you bust your working, yet your kids are out breaking the law? So, if they do wrong you are supposed to point them out!!!!
Say you comment on the new E40 tune. Wasn't listen for that long but he was always one of my fav...even being from NY. He just had a flow I grew to love 💯
Was in really that crazy during that time? My uncle lived around Crenshaw and Adams in the 80’s and I always wanted to go visit but he told me it was too dangerous and wouldn’t let me come.
He had to take the stand, he was trying to prove self defense. It didn't help that he had a sawed off shotgun and a witness seen him shoot it. If you listen to the whole thing the dude wound up getting charged for shooting one of the bounty hunters. This could've very well been an extortion gone wrong with the two parties. After all, the family owned a mortuary, so they had money and you can't tell me the funeral business wasn't thriving back then. Why is a large hood like that beefing with a family anyway?
back when court was wild and your defense attorney could build a case against the victim during your defense trial.. somebody object. plus I think now the boys would of all had individual trials

The gang life was/is such a waste. Pity most these cats don't realise until it's too late. All brainwashed by gangster rap bullshit and swearing allegiance to Red/Blue and Blood/Crip. Living your life for the colour of your hood.

Bro y’all catch what the prosecutor he said “ some of them didn’t do anything but there part of the group so they get charged too”. That’s fuked up . That’s not right .
@@cortezhernandez2221 people join gangs for varies reasons. Common reasons is for protection against other groups. Or they’re living in poverty and joining a gang is they’re only way of survival. Regardless, we’re all human beings with rights and until you grow up in that environment you have no right to stop about who has rights or doesn’t. Also it is messed up that, for instance, a driver gets charged with murder or possession of a firearm when someone else does the killing. Simply because they’re apart of the same gang.
It's called guilty by association or an accessory to the crime. If you're going to critique the law you should have a basic understanding of what the laws are.
I knew all these guys but regardless what I did with them they never messed with me and I made it out. The man in the perm was 'manpower' most respected of all of them. Renzy had hands
RS a lot of folks seem like they missed that part ...same way they act like it don't happen in jail . That's not a gangster move where I'm from, but I guess different crews accept different action.
That's exactly how I feel. If they doing that, then how did he get his flag? What he do to become a member? You know exactly what they was doing once they got to prison. Straight bandits
Probably perpetrated like they were hard and took their beating to get in it’s easy to act tough and be a homosexual at the same time nobody will know lol if other bloods knew that trust me they wouldn’t of let that slide
Teenage years the brain isn't fully developed and these kids grew up in a poor harsh enviornment. The peer pressure to gang bang was beyond that but a tool of survival. Half these kids if able to grow out of the phase would have left the life alone but crashed out and got life or 30 years before that time. Some of these guys are just gettin gout now.
I was just 8 yrs old back then. Crazy how old this was lol im 44 now. TV sure has changed! Imagine our kids looking back at 2021 and thinking things will look crazy old then! 🤣
This shows why laws are so harsh. People complain they are to strict now but you have a guy in here with 12 felonies, 1 a robbery still in the streets. The courts were too soft, now they put guys under the jail. Poor youngster, followed a bunch of dumb asses and got caught up in a bad situation.
The kid making faces to his little sister made me smile a bit, then I remembered the nature of the court case. For a second we got a glimpse of innocence in that moment, just sad that so much horrible stuff goes on around them.
even then the LOYALTY was no where near and the SYSTEM didn't give two shit about anyone foreal....THE 80s were some cold times....I was born in 86'. The stories my dad have as an ASIAN REFUGEE IN CALIFORNIA.....unspoken
I chop all of this up to SLAVERY...A lot of our people never got past SLAVERY...The self-hatred is real and gangbanging was a manifestation. 😢 These young men had no job opportunities, nothing but disfunction. I Pray 🙏 for my people.
None of them ever experienced slavery??? How the Mexicans find all these jobs and start coming over like crazy because of all the better jobs and opportunities??

how is it fucked they put them self in that spot so the day they joined they gang is the day they gave up there rights
@@cortezhernandez2221 people join gangs for varies reasons. Common reasons is for protection against other groups. Or they’re living in poverty and joining a gang is they’re only way of survival. Regardless, we’re all human beings with rights and until you grow up in that environment you have no right to stop about who has rights or doesn’t. Also it is messed up that, for instance, a driver gets charged with murder or possession of a firearm when someone else does the killing. Simply because they’re apart of the same gang.
It's called guilty by association or an accessory to the crime. If you're going to critique the law you should have a basic understanding of what the laws are.
@@shiekahleg2205 stupid ass law to crowd the jails to make billions of dollars
@@tinyfalcon1185 That is true. Very true and scary at the same time.
@14:23 buddy got one of the coldest perms known to man lol
On the hood
I knew all these guys but regardless what I did with them they never messed with me and I made it out. The man in the perm was 'manpower' most respected of all of them. Renzy had hands
What’s the perm called. If anything can you give the name of all the perms the had back then?
Sad world that were living in, when the victim is interrogated for protecting himself.
We don't know what happened he might not be a victim
So nobody gonna talk about how them bloods were tryna make a member who snitched, give them head???🤦🏾♂️
What part of the game is that????😬
RS a lot of folks seem like they missed that part ...same way they act like it don't happen in jail . That's not a gangster move where I'm from, but I guess different crews accept different action.
They call it gang banging for a reason.
That's exactly how I feel. If they doing that, then how did he get his flag? What he do to become a member? You know exactly what they was doing once they got to prison. Straight bandits
Lmao facts I thought I heard it wrong lmao you funny asf
Probably perpetrated like they were hard and took their beating to get in it’s easy to act tough and be a homosexual at the same time nobody will know lol if other bloods knew that trust me they wouldn’t of let that slide
Classic....Tragic....Reality Of The Way Back Gangstaz.
At that time 1984 the projects was not a good place to be in it was a war zone 1980 to 1989
I said it before and I'll say it again, vinmoonsu u are the man. I dont know how the fuck ur getting these footages but keep it coming brother.
Oi! Mate!!!
A bank robber snitching on gang members and the old heads only say the new generation some snitches
I remember seeing this on TV when it first came out I was 16 living in the peblos
Teenage years the brain isn't fully developed and these kids grew up in a poor harsh enviornment. The peer pressure to gang bang was beyond that but a tool of survival. Half these kids if able to grow out of the phase would have left the life alone but crashed out and got life or 30 years before that time. Some of these guys are just gettin gout now.
I was just 8 yrs old back then. Crazy how old this was lol im 44 now. TV sure has changed! Imagine our kids looking back at 2021 and thinking things will look crazy old then! 🤣
40 is nothing some of these men in court are now 60
This shows why laws are so harsh. People complain they are to strict now but you have a guy in here with 12 felonies, 1 a robbery still in the streets. The courts were too soft, now they put guys under the jail. Poor youngster, followed a bunch of dumb asses and got caught up in a bad situation.
Harsh? My little brother was stabbed to death with witnesses and the bitch that did it only got 2-3 years and is free, fuck the justice system 🖕
The kid making faces to his little sister made me smile a bit, then I remembered the nature of the court case. For a second we got a glimpse of innocence in that moment, just sad that so much horrible stuff goes on around them.
I know this era was raw but bulletproof courtroom dam that's some shit
To be honest all the homies should have spoken up in lil Louie defense.. "nah he he got nothing to do with tnis". Case close!
Homies😂😂😂😂 and they tried to make him suck their.......🤢🤢🤢
@@eggshell99 that's why they really weren't his homies..
Shiiid! Why? B Bone ( lil Louie) look innocent, that's all for the cameras! He was with us! Bangin' and erethang!
even then the LOYALTY was no where near and the SYSTEM didn't give two shit about anyone foreal....THE 80s were some cold times....I was born in 86'. The stories my dad have as an ASIAN REFUGEE IN CALIFORNIA.....unspoken
I chop all of this up to SLAVERY...A lot of our people never got past SLAVERY...The self-hatred is real and gangbanging was a manifestation. 😢 These young men had no job opportunities, nothing but disfunction. I Pray 🙏 for my people.
None of them ever experienced slavery??? How the Mexicans find all these jobs and start coming over like crazy because of all the better jobs and opportunities??

Vinmoonsu has a great channel with the most original content which is consistently updated. Even tho you never interact with you subscribers I really hope that you are monetized so you make something for all of your effort. I have binged on many channels and grow sick of them after a month at the most but your channel is the only exception. Keep up the good work bro.
Much love and respect from London.

As another brother in Christ, who witnessed the consumption of the community's I grew up in, like you, without Jesus Christ, I couldn't tell you where I would be either. Instead of gang members, these days, it's the people in a suit and tie. Different faces, same game. Be well sir.

@@nameredacted1176 - Whoa, I don’t argue with women so take it easy. You’ll just have to excuse me for telling the truth about a Roman inspired religion forced onto my ancestors during slavery. Read Ephesians 6:5 and learn something. You’ll also have to excuse me for not accepting homoerotic ceremonies like simulating drinking the blood of another man and eating his flesh. I’m quite happy and satisfied in life without that, but you do you. And just in case you think it’s nonsense look up the council of Nicea 325 AD for historical reference.
