I always thought GD were like the bloods & crips, so i thought maybe he was just making it up that he was GD. he helped everyone, he was super nice, he was strong, and stood up for people, and someone I considered a friend. now i feel bad for doubting him, these guys explained everything. he was everything these people were preaching. im glad you posted this. thank you.

      They are involved in drugs, prostitution, scams, not to mention kill eachother everyday 😂. You name it.. Reason why they can pretend to do good is because they have money from all that.. This is how major gangs have ALWAYS operated. Put on a front. Do SOME good in public eye but in reality they are pure poison to society, getting kids hooked on drugs, attracting kids to gangs.
      For instance the hells angels motorcycle club here in socal. They do a lot of good, not to be disputed but they are very dark and do farrrr more bad, but they have a front, and have most of southern California fooled.

I know plenty of folks who’ve done some awful shit in they lives and they self proclaim it to be wrong. That’s why real OGs do shit like these guys now and get kids off the street and stop them from getting into drugs. I understand how you could look at gangs from the outside as the enemy but if we wanna solve the problem we gotta make these young guys who are out banging feel accepted into society for something other than bangin. Lifetime criminals sure lock em up but rehabilitation over recidivism.

    GD started off as Supreme Gents, then Supreme Gangster, Larry and Ike Taylor joined the Disciples and became the Black Gangster Disciples. Later around 80 or 81 larry broke off from BGD, and formed GD/Growth and Development. The concept was to invite other ethnic groups which is why he dropped Black from his faction. Gangster became a thing late 80s early 90s, which is why it became known as Gangster Disciple. This is a short version of GD.

      The white dudes got down in prison. Most Folk gang members graduate to GDs when they get to prison. The ones I met were dope fiends that claimed GD. All the positivity is a front for the public and to deter the police, just like 1%er bikers do. They're still entrenched in violence and have no plans stop that. Hells Angels could change to Heavens Agenda and still be doing all the treacherous things to land them in prison. All they're doing is trying to clean up their image to be less stigmatized, while the motives remain the same.

When I was coming up and used to bang I thought the best respect I could earn was through fear and that got me nowhere. Yeah, I was respected in my hood but for the wrong reasons. Sooner or later, all that fell apart and I realized to be a real man is to stand on your own two feet and support your family just like these men were speaking on. Now being older, the small crew that I run with are a lot like these guys. We don't like the word gang. We much rather prefer brotherhood. And being a man in my mid 40s and running with a crew of my brothers, I've also learned that the most important respect is earned through love rather than fear.
