@@Capryism what do you mean, just like in europe? so I live in Berlin which is one of the most multicultural cities in Europe, right in the heart of a very diverse area and i can tell you that its not true what you assume. A majority of the people accept our german standards and try to fit in. They suffer from minorities who often even have a german passport and make them look criminal. Berlin is a criminal city for German standards and also European, but compared to North America its still very very safe and will also stay so. Also, in a country like Canada, refugees were more openly accepted while here, they are not allowed to work which leads to illegal activity, so its a selfmade problem of the government. Europe in general has its own very strong traditions while all traditions in North America come from people going there and changing things with different cultures, no matter if it was in the 1700's or later. And thats positive, here, we try to take the things from the countries that are positive, such as the amazing food but its definitely wrong to say they want to change our whole country when most of them are peaceful people. Please don't be racist and blended by news that only want to tell one story
@@aamrakamran7275 when was the last time you were walking down Bloor Street and someone threw acid in your face? Are you dense? This isn't India or Pakistan where the culture itself breeds this sort of violence.
I don't think they are an ORGANIZED gang, rather a bunch of kids from the same country that speak the same language and live in the same area. But when a police sweep nets 42 guns and $3 Million in drugs, you can see why the police are calling them a gang. Both sides have a valid point to an extent.
Sam W There was criminal activity going on there for a long time and they wanted an excuse to book some ppl up for a long time to make it look like real change was happening.
Who is making the drug who is making gun and selling it the kid or not I just want to make Little money they board they can do anything they can work they can go downtown and their countries is a war so their parents Brought to Canada it’s not the kids fault they just want to build a jail so the white people could have a job Long-term solution is to go back to Somali take back your country
Eddo this is all a setup, I've seen UK police putting kids with school bags, on the wall, a whole group all lined up, when we asked what is happening, they try to say they were joking with the kids, and nearly dropped their camera. Joking my foot, more like criminalizing those kids.
@@aishaomar2695 by murdering and stealing from the citizens. They fund their drug dealing bs the same way the ratchets in America do. By killing innocent people for financial gain.
they're not creating no gangs bro I live in toronto.there are multiple gangs shooting at each other killing innocents, selling little kids, look at the murder rate this year, its higher in Toronto than in new York.
kingkronik4200 you can't compare the two. It's not legal to shoot your neighbor for walking in your front lawn to retrieve a over thrown football.. besides Chicago makes most American Cities look like Disneyland as well...
People in the comment section are mocking these people for being 'soft' . Yeah, take your crime, broken neighbourhoods, and disenfranchised population with your hardness - what a stupid thing to be proud of.
it's not even that. We laugh cause y'all are trying so hard to say y'all got struggles up in Canada. You guys have people trying to say Canada is hard when we all know its not. You guys will never be able to survive our struggle. We don't brag about it being bad over here, all we saying is stop fronting and stop wanting to be hard cause theirs people who would do whatever to make their to get out meanwhile you got Suburb kids trying to get in. You won't ever understand until you actually been in these areas. So quit dissing us you clueless clowns.
TopSantii a struggle is still a struggle. yes, we Canadians will never understand how hard it is down there but that doesn't mean that we don't have people living in poverty and having to resort to gang life
TopSantii there are actually many struggles in Canada and though it may not be about Toronto and how 'hard' or 'soft' it is , there's still really bad poverty for native Canadians.. so I hope you don't think that there's no problems here.
motomusiq facts tho. I'm from east Flatbush brooklyn NYC. glenwood rd which was a real ass area to grow up in during the 80s and 90s especially as the only white boy on my entire block. I did some wild shit and put in alotta work in them streets as a youngster and I'm proud of where I come from and I never forget where I come from. But the REAL thing to glorify is MAKING IT OUT of the hood and making a better life for you and your family.
As a new comer to Canada my family settled in the dixon area from November 1992 to August of 1998. In 2012 my childhood friend was shot in the head, in a stairwell in one of the buildings show in this documentary. He was the young man mentioned in this video. More then 18 years have pass since my family moved away from Dixon. The early to mid 90's Dixon was a very different place it is Today.
This place now isn't as bad as its shown. I actually live close to Dixon, and as a part time pizza delivery driver i often visit these apartments. However, we have been told never to enter the building and instead call the customer downstairs. The only crime I once witnessed while delivering food was one guy ordered a pizza with PINEAPPLE on it!!!
I am Somali I do believe the rule of law should be respected at all time. Poverty should never be an excuse to engaged in crime and hurt others. The best thing to do would have been those caught committing major felony should be deported to Somalia upon completion of their sentence. Trust me they might be tough in Canada but there are much more tougher and ruthless people back home. No one will take their shit in Somalia. These so called gangsters are just giving majority of law abiding Somalis bad name. I have enough of it.
that's what happens to you if you don't hold your faith you become like them you come all the way from somalia to america to become a junkie and murderer is very weird
We have large communities of Somalis in Seattle, there are a few bad eggs just like any other group of ppl but for the most part they are honest hard working nice people

The problem is it's not just a few. It's a pattern that repeats itself again and again. The fact of the matter is that some cultures are suitable for the modern world. Others are not. It's not a race or colour issue. It's a mentality issue.
i lived in Dixen about half a year, If anything i noticed a community of families getting along well and respecting one another. Any community as large as this one is bound to have some crime in it.
The Canadian policing system is replicating the demons of America's police and system.... On top of Canada's already troubled history of discrimination and oppression. Police departments creating the narrative of a gang / drug war regardless of facts of evidence is big business. And big corruption.

Amalia A .....Natives have a bad rep from living on the street and being alcoholics because that's the only ones most people see on a daily basis. Somalia have a bad reputation as well because the ones most people see are teens or early 20's hanging in big groups being aggressive and sucking teeth (which bothers everyone except Somalis ). Why don't these groups organise and change their immage shown to the public. I grew up with many good Somali friends and I am Métis... so I empathise with them. I know their great humans like everybody else. It's just that the public only sees the negatives. Know this - now your in a position to change this - once you become aware of how bad it is and how it can be changed , you become responsible for it. Inspire yourselves and be motivated to care and work on this. You have The Power now.
@@danfield6030 So, according to DAN, only Native people are homeless?? I live on the East Coast and the majority of poor and homeless here are white.

LazerViking81 that’s just vice they have had big breakdowns on drugs in Toronto with getting millions dollars of drugs but you know the people claim it was planted
There isn't one area in Toronto i'd feel unsafe walking in at night. That includes Dixon, Regent Park, Chester Le etc. Not that there isn't crime in these areas, but if you don't start no shit, there won't be no shit. You know?
Joel, That's true -- but it's a general truth about everywhere. I've climbed Watts Tower twice, walked through the Fillmore at 2 a.m., checked out 125th in Manhattan, Blackstone Avenue in Chicago, and Wayne State, the "ivory tower in the ebony sea." Same same. My class on the other hand? Wey-yull, Conrad and Andy both served hard time, but most of us haven't been caught... 'Course Watts Tower can get you into some serious criminality. The last time I visited, during an overnight layover at LAX, I only got to the second level. The folks occupying the third handed me down a fine spliff.
I lived in the neighborhood across victoria park from Chester Le. Chester Le had shootings and more gang stuff. Cherokee was the most peaceful for some reason.
@@589supra I lived in Chester Le for 10 years grew up there and the reason for violence is public housing vs private property. Most people that live there are cool except for few criminals who have "beef" with other public housing areas but you are right though Cherokee is really quiet and peaceful.
@Tony Scott I see this bitter old hag all across RUclips talking shit about anyone who isn't white in Canada. Pay no mind. These are the people that thought Maxine was going to get elected.

@@DishiontheRoll Imo it seems pretty obvious her and her friends just want to seem cool, they lie about how active the area is in the diner and they just play up living in a "bad" neighborhood the whole time, she could easily just be wearing red because she saw older people in the community calling themselves bloods
Did Rob Ford know Bloods and mobsters? Yea, he did. That is because he was constantly in the neighbourhoods. He knows everybody. His brother was even a pretty big dealer if you go back that far. Rob Ford and his brothers have been in the area forever. Rob Ford was a normal guy and a father who helped his community and people other politicians wouldn't dare be around for fear of exactly what this video says "gang ties"
@@JustMeELC smoking crack doesn't mean someone has gang ties or make someone a dealer. The Ford brothers grew up in Toronto and hung out with and knew everyone, but no one ever says they had German ties or Irish ties or bowling ties but if you know any criminals suddenly you have gang ties. They were friendly, not racist, didn't judge and hung out with everyone.
@Game Tight Soldiers People that hang out with Hells Angels wear red/white support gear and Outlaws wear black and white support gear, and any officer can say a bandanna is connected to anything and you are just wearing to wipe sweat off your forehead. So if you think just because they made a music video, mocking what people call them, then you have been groomed by the Propaganda mainstream media has been selling you, and you bought it hook line and sinker. The Establishment raised you to be Racist.
This is very unlike Somali culture. I know Somalis all over the US and they're some of the most peaceful, respectful, nice and loving people I've ever met. I tend not believe everything I see on media, but if this is true, then I'd be disappointed. First generation Somalis went through a lot of shit to create a better future for their kids, and Somali kids born in the US/Canada should be aware of that struggle and honor it! But hey, I choose to take this info with a grain of salt!
Yes man but this dickheads wont understand anything all they do is smoke and rap while those who are in mannepolis Particularly young girls are Graduating..
It is well known that Doug Ford (the Premier of Ontario) is a former drug dealer. His brother Rob smoked crack (Remember Toronto's crack smoking, alcoholic mayor?). One week after the video implicating him was given to Toronto Star, the person who released the video was murdered. There was no investigation, and they barely talked about it in the media. Bill Blair (the chief of police) and Ron Taverner (the incumbent OPP commissioner, who was in charge of the police division, where this happened) are friends with the Ford family. The province is being run by gangsters. Our provincial and city are governed by gangsters, and being policed by gangsters. Doug Ford also has strong links to white supremacist groups. The Somali youth are being used to cover up, the real crimes being committed by the people running the government of Ontario, and the police.
It's sad to see so many people arguing about who's a real gangster, in the comments section. This is exactly what these white supremacist criminals want the Somali youth, and other black youth to do. You seem like a wise person Mr. Khaouti. Inform yourself, and educate the youth as much as possible. وعليكم السلام
" I can take an AK47 apart, and put it back together I can do it! " woooah slow down cool guy you're making it sound like its an impossible task to strip one of the most simple weapons in the world!!!

Abdulmalik Abdullahi Why are you so offended at this comment, are you offended that I said that stripping an AK47 apart is not hard. Did it insult your fucking intelligence or something?
These young kids are lost bro. Havent you seen those young girls smoking!! oh, man how far we have changed. This is the problem when we as a Somali men marry four wives and forget our children they will be lost.
Most of you are lost and need to check your facts. I can’t even believe I’ve continued reading these ignorant comments…. The whole world is completely in turmoil. Everyone needs to take accountability. No one race, country or neighborhood is more “gang” like than the other. Music is art not real life. And oh yeah, Rob Ford is awesome. RIP Somali people are my brothers and sisters…. Respect Peace out from Minneapolis, MN… btw , Toronto is more south of Minneapolis. Look at a map.
This is not the worst hood in Toronto at all. In my 37 years born and raised and all the friends and family I have across the city I could talk about way more places and gangs.
This was a pointless episode, lies and contradictions from the people shown. Everyone is guilty in this episode the cops and the youth. It's laughable.
Thank God I'm from the West coast and don't talk like that haha, eh... Y'all Mericans reading this have your little sayings too don't y'all.. Like ruff when it's pronounced roof..
That girl is so self entitled. How about doing something that 1.relates to you 2. something that is respectable. It's like throwing shit out a window then complaining that everyone says you smell like shit. Of course you smell like shit!!! you threw it.

Tht girl rapper needs to find some better content material. She doesn't live the violent lifestyle & cops will just use her fantasized lyrics to justify over-policing tht building. Ppl dont even want to hear abt shootings, drugs, money anymore
Harassing youngsters and making sure they will never get a decent job because of an address is a sure way to make this problem a long term growing cancer. On the other hand these gangs will never understand that them bringing GUNS is the reason for all this scrutiny and discrimination. In Canada hand guns are almost taboo.
These are actors man. Jane an finch is a dangerous area why didn’t they film it there. Cuz they know they will get shot at. So they pick the safest area lol. Fu kin joke
It's a label the police give them so they can make a label of a group people the police want to target and keep isolated from the rest of society and it's really a law enforcement game where they use other ministries to steal our kids and isolate and keep them locked away and cut their hair off and take off moles so they cannot be identified as our kids when they are trafficked to other families. This is all happening in North America to pay for law enforcement.
My fellow Somalis always living in a denial. There is major fundamental chronic problems on our communities all around the west and Dixon in one of them. We have to clean up...
I live in dixion and the truth is there's been 4 deaths in the past 7 years here, it pretty dangerous to walk outside at night. Its such bad area the local highschool (don Bosco) closed because everyone was to scared to go there and by the time I was going to highschool there was only 10 kids in each grade
tbh, I think there never was a gang but the police kept going on about it that inadvertently they made a gang. people just started to become what they were being labelled.
I live in Toronto and the violence here is real. The violence, drugs, weapons, gangs all come from our youth here. They’re influenced to believe gangs, violence etc are cool. Our youth find ways to get there hands on weapons, drugs and form small gangs everywhere in Toronto. All of them make stupid mistakes like shooting someone and end up in jail. It might not be as rough as American ghettos but the hoods in Toronto do exist and there are people out here trying to kill each other over stupid things for many stupid reasons. Believe me on this, in every low income neighbourhood or building in the Toronto area, there is at-least one person that is interested in the “gang life”. I live in Brampton which is one of the “safer” or “wanna be gangster” areas considered by other Toronto areas and teen stabbing, theft, drug dealing, car thefts, etc occur all the time. Research it yourself if you don’t believe me.
Systemic oppression, growing up in a poverty and crime ridden environment.. I live in toronto. An old friend went to prison for gang affiliated crime/murder. He was a smart guy back in school. Some turned to crack. It's very sad actually, and it is not their fault they are put in these neighborhoods to struggle.
@@jupiterstrawberry stop blaming other things for every issue faced in live… it’s called self accountability. Every time the racecard or other reasons get named as the culprit. I come from a bad neighborhood but the difference is that I don’t see myself as a victim and worked my way to succes, by hard work not falling for quick and easy money.

To admit there's a problem would mean admitting Canada is not the multi-cultural utopia everyone says it is. The left is constantly comparing the United States to Canada, using it as an example of how the US should be. The last thing they want is to find out Canada has its own problems.
@@thatguy22441 Canadian problems aren't as bad as American problems trust me, I've spent time in Toronto and the violence there is nothing like America. If America was like Canada then the murders would be cut at least in half
@@princejaxisblack8789 Good on Canada. We could learn a lot from other countries, which is to say we would do well to find out why their crime rates were already low even before draconian gun laws were passed. The legal availability of firearms to civilians has no effect on crime rates.
Yes, if you go towards Walkley Rd and the Cedarwood Rd area the Somalis have a gang called the Banff Crips named after Banff Ave where the Ottawa public housing is located.
They are Somali and we are chill and friendly people lol we mind our business and do our own thing!! This documentary stupid af most normal Somalis wouldn't participate in creating this BS!!
I never heard of Dixon City LOL. All about Galloway, Morningside, Jane strip, Regent Park. I seen some fuckin dirty shit in the gutter areas of T.O. Just as bad as most American cities. Not the crazy ones mbe. Ppl are belligerent n violent tho, not all "sorry guy" like South Park.

Ak47s are notoriously horrible for aim, the barrel fitment is loose on the ammo so if dirt or some shit gets in the barrel it won't jam.. It's a smart design but far from accurate..
AKs are pretty fucking accurate, its just the cheap homemade AKs that Middle-Eastern and African groups use that are shit (usualy produced around the border area of Pakistan and Afghanistan). Real AKs are probably the best firearm you can easily aquire where ever you are in the world. Sorry if there are any bad english.
The only reason Torontos murder rate isn't as high as any where else is because of how strict the gun laws are there getting caught with a gun can fuck your whole life up where ass in Chicago or Texas anybody can a gun. 2 dozens is a lot considering we're not right on the coast of beside Mexicans smuggling them by the thousands and mind you they said that "small gang" it's self smuggled 2 dozens is a lot how many have you smuggled

@@kings9724 lol ur proud of that 😂? You didn't contribute 2 any of those numbers pussy so don't brag about it. Toronto's murder rates higher than New York's tho 2019🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
With all the guns, drugs and money acquired from the raid, in a place where there is only 1 or 2 murders a year, there is only one scenario. It is run by 1 gang or 1000 hustlers - problem is, if those 1000 hustlers knew each other, they would be associates, hence somewhat of a gang.
Love the Vice documentaries, but left feeling a bit confused after this one. Like: "what was your point?" Because whether or not there's a "gang" in Dixon or not seems beside the point a bit, no? A group of people were (or maybe still are?) smuggling large numbers of guns into Toronto. That's kinda the main problem here it seems. Whether this group of organized criminals (because one assumes it would take some amount of organization to sneak number of firearms here) gets the label "gang" or not matters not that much in the grand scheme.
I think the arguments about gang violence in contrast between these countries is pointless. We have very different histories, and the cultural, and social effects obviously show. Im really happy for Canada not having to deal with a lot of the violence we do in the States. Glorification and emulation of lifestyles that are of struggling people in this country is really strange to see coming from somewhere else. It's also offensive to anyone that worked their ass off to get out of a dangerous area, and or lifestyle. People need to learn to embrace hip hop culture without trying to look like a two dimensional version of a music video they saw online.
How contorted is the criminal mind that says that robbing, assaulting and hurting others is "Some bullshit" and that the state is unjust or "profiling" when the police try to enforce bail/parole conditions! Ridiculous.
Theodore P Yh its pretty bizzare.Especially with youths when they intimidate communities and flood areas with drugs then feel inconvienced when the police pester them
those are somalis for ya. I went to school close to here for a year, not fun at all. I would be in the library for lunch and take as many extra circulars so that I would not get beat up or get my stuff stolen.
tintan23 actually i think he was referring to the criminal mind.I doubt you were beat up everyday. And conversley, i actually lived in quite a racist area as a child and has some unsavoury experiences.Yet i wasnt and do not go around saying 'well,there are white people for you' on every documentary relwting to crime where the subjects happen to be white.Get past colour and look at the wider socieeconomic factors and you may see some patterns.
simple.i worked in Windsor in summer 3 years ago and building we were workin on was 650 for 2 bed room I live in Toronto I and I know 2 bed rooms is over 1000 forsure
Okay so where did the 42 guns, 1 taser, 3 million dollars worth of drugs and 542000 dollars in cash come from? Were they legally owned or illegal? If charges were dropped in size many cases, how do you explain that stuff being seized? Even the guy you interviewed in the beginning seemed to have been busted for illegal gun ownership. What was his explanation for that?
@@2010RSHACKS Agreed! It is amazing how different people can fully watch a video, yet key facts are missed by some lol. He clearly said there is a lot of unemployment (70%) and misguided youth turn to drug dealing to get money. He was just of the opinion that there is no Mafia like syndicate in Dixon, as the media is portraying.
Require all teens go through a work program starting at age 15 as part of school curriculum. Offer a fair minimum wage for the students from age 16 for the work they do while learning. Require a percentage of this go into college fund or fund that cannot be touched until 19 years old. I believe this will stomp out the need to feel like they belong to something important because they will be important to something positive. There won't be the need or urge to sell drugs! They will already earn spending money. The sense of accomplishment, looking forward to their future as college students... will take place of gang rank and street cred! Build up our youth before the street tries to raise them!
matching colours, guns, drugs, rap videos explicitly stating gang related terms and ideals - "we are not a gang" - its kinda laughable to be honest - to what lengths these people go to lie
I’m not from Canada but that’s what usually happens to Somali kids here in the US too. It’s the ones that never were good at school always got in trouble and they all eventually get together and do dumb shit together and be bums then they act like they’re in a “gang” to look tough. When in reality they have no aspirations in life and just blame everything on racism and the “struggle” instead of trying to become something in life. And before you all start calling me a racist I’m Somali too I just believe in taking responsibility and not having a victim mentality.

motomusiq facts tho. I'm from east Flatbush brooklyn NYC. glenwood rd which was a real ass area to grow up in during the 80s and 90s especially as the only white boy on my entire block. I did some wild shit and put in alotta work in them streets as a youngster and I'm proud of where I come from and I never forget where I come from. But the REAL thing to glorify is MAKING IT OUT of the hood and making a better life for you and your family.
As a new comer to Canada my family settled in the dixon area from November 1992 to August of 1998. In 2012 my childhood friend was shot in the head, in a stairwell in one of the buildings show in this documentary. He was the young man mentioned in this video. More then 18 years have pass since my family moved away from Dixon. The early to mid 90's Dixon was a very different place it is Today.

Amalia A 6ix side crazy place baby
Amalia A .....Natives have a bad rep from living on the street and being alcoholics because that's the only ones most people see on a daily basis. Somalia have a bad reputation as well because the ones most people see are teens or early 20's hanging in big groups being aggressive and sucking teeth (which bothers everyone except Somalis ). Why don't these groups organise and change their immage shown to the public. I grew up with many good Somali friends and I am Métis... so I empathise with them. I know their great humans like everybody else. It's just that the public only sees the negatives. Know this - now your in a position to change this - once you become aware of how bad it is and how it can be changed , you become responsible for it.

But hey, I choose to take this info with a grain of salt!
Yes man but this dickheads wont understand anything all they do is smoke and rap while those who are in mannepolis Particularly young girls are Graduating..
It is well known that Doug Ford (the Premier of Ontario) is a former drug dealer. His brother Rob smoked crack (Remember Toronto's crack smoking, alcoholic mayor?). One week after the video implicating him was given to Toronto Star, the person who released the video was murdered. There was no investigation, and they barely talked about it in the media. Bill Blair (the chief of police) and Ron Taverner (the incumbent OPP commissioner, who was in charge of the police division, where this happened) are friends with the Ford family. The province is being run by gangsters. Our provincial and city are governed by gangsters, and being policed by gangsters. Doug Ford also has strong links to white supremacist groups.
The Somali youth are being used to cover up, the real crimes being committed by the people running the government of Ontario, and the police.
It's sad to see so many people arguing about who's a real gangster, in the comments section. This is exactly what these white supremacist criminals want the Somali youth, and other black youth to do. You seem like a wise person Mr. Khaouti. Inform yourself, and educate the youth as much as possible.

tbh, I think there never was a gang but the police kept going on about it that inadvertently they made a gang. people just started to become what they were being labelled.
I live in Toronto and the violence here is real. The violence, drugs, weapons, gangs all come from our youth here. They’re influenced to believe gangs, violence etc are cool. Our youth find ways to get there hands on weapons, drugs and form small gangs everywhere in Toronto. All of them make stupid mistakes like shooting someone and end up in jail. It might not be as rough as American ghettos but the hoods in Toronto do exist and there are people out here trying to kill each other over stupid things for many stupid reasons. Believe me on this, in every low income neighbourhood or building in the Toronto area, there is at-least one person that is interested in the “gang life”. I live in Brampton which is one of the “safer” or “wanna be gangster” areas considered by other Toronto areas and teen stabbing, theft, drug dealing, car thefts, etc occur all the time. Research it yourself if you don’t believe me.
It’s just low income area’s and people want money and go get money if it’s for there family or for themselves

I never heard of Dixon City LOL. All about Galloway, Morningside, Jane strip, Regent Park. I seen some fuckin dirty shit in the gutter areas of T.O. Just as bad as most American cities. Not the crazy ones mbe. Ppl are belligerent n violent tho, not all "sorry guy" like South Park.
Ppl get beaten ripped down to their underwear for being a punk, or white white walking through a park. Nice jeans nigga now we can share em, nice phone NYEEGA NICE LAPTOP biatch. Seen 40 yr old grown men selling crack with hep c n herpes n 5 stds preying on women n locking them up riding with guns n shit. Lol, yall some white kids on the internet HAHA TORONTOS SOFT YO with ur concealed carry license. Watever
Then again, Tdot was worst from the late 70s to 2000s. Nowadays kind of is soft. America doesn't even seem that bad. Just get urself some guns LOL ur allowed to have them. $20,000 houses, $15 per hour American at Mcdonalds? I LOL. The manager ain't making that here. Whoever has balls can just shoot ppl n not even get in trouble in some cases.
He can take an ak apart and put it back together but he cant aim it correctly.
In Russia you are taught how to disassemble and assemble an ak in school
Ak47s are notoriously horrible for aim, the barrel fitment is loose on the ammo so if dirt or some shit gets in the barrel it won't jam.. It's a smart design but far from accurate..
lol
RobTapps88 Not true AK's are just as accurate as AR15's and most other semi auto rifles.
AKs are pretty fucking accurate, its just the cheap homemade AKs that Middle-Eastern and African groups use that are shit (usualy produced around the border area of Pakistan and Afghanistan). Real AKs are probably the best firearm you can easily aquire where ever you are in the world.
Sorry if there are any bad english.
Canadian Gangs... "by my account they've imported over 2 dozen guns"... lol what a joke
lol imagine the gangs before they got there guns XD
I rather live there then more dangerous ...
You're right. We should strive to have more crime and poverty like our friends to the south.
+rochat Right? Bunch of idiots
The only reason Torontos murder rate isn't as high as any where else is because of how strict the gun laws are there getting caught with a gun can fuck your whole life up where ass in Chicago or Texas anybody can a gun. 2 dozens is a lot considering we're not right on the coast of beside Mexicans smuggling them by the thousands and mind you they said that "small gang" it's self smuggled 2 dozens is a lot how many have you smuggled
"I could take an AK47 apart and put it back together" ... wow so gangsta I'm scared
Edmond Aye you should be scared bet u wouldn't say it to his face u clown 😂
its funny that rose carter said shes not a gang member, but yet theyre looking for her because shes a suspect in a murder case loooool
Was thinking the same thing.
smokeybiatch ok... being a suspect in a murder case does not mean you’re affiliated with a gang. Moron.
eou zxiubv you don’t get it lol
@@Asdfgqedfglo lmfaoooo bitch please. we are not all as brainless as you, this is whats going on in the city. she isnt some fucking innocent being. and this isnt the states, people dont just pull shit out of their ass, you fucking dummy.
smokeybiatch uhhhh... yes. Clearly, you are brainless. No one said she was innocent. Just because a person is suspected of murder does not mean they are a gang member. I don’t know why that’s so hard for you to comprehend. Then again, your last comment shows just how stupid you really are so I guess it’s not that hard to believe you can’t comprehend something so simple...
Ugly and dumb, man, you’re going to have a hard life ahead of you. Ha.
dang they took the hoops off the backboards. thats cold 3:01
"I don't know, red is a dominant color..."
This is wack. These people have no reason to have "gangs". You can't compare the reasons for gang violence in Canada to those of the USA, Mexico & South America. These people have so much opportunity.
SMH
ik an upper middle class 2 parent area in america is hell compared to fuckin bitch ass canada💀
im starting to think these guys just watch some music videos nd try to bring all that ghettones to canada 😂
Cesar G Zuniga america’s murder rate is 5 times as high as canadas😭
@@kings9724 lol ur proud of that 😂? You didn't contribute 2 any of those numbers pussy so don't brag about it. Toronto's murder rates higher than New York's tho 2019🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
db toronto murder rate 2.57 new york murder rate 3.82 and new york is one of america’s safest cities😭😭
It doesn’t matter if your tryna “hustle”. Selling drugs is selling drugs
This is a 5 minute drive from where I live
... sounds to me like a budget related issue
If this was true of my neighbourhood I’d probably move.
and as a Somali living in Canada I would never live at the first hand.
With all the guns, drugs and money acquired from the raid, in a place where there is only 1 or 2 murders a year, there is only one scenario. It is run by 1 gang or 1000 hustlers - problem is, if those 1000 hustlers knew each other, they would be associates, hence somewhat of a gang.
No 'somewhat' about it ;o)
Love the Vice documentaries, but left feeling a bit confused after this one. Like: "what was your point?" Because whether or not there's a "gang" in Dixon or not seems beside the point a bit, no? A group of people were (or maybe still are?) smuggling large numbers of guns into Toronto. That's kinda the main problem here it seems. Whether this group of organized criminals (because one assumes it would take some amount of organization to sneak number of firearms here) gets the label "gang" or not matters not that much in the grand scheme.
this documentary is very much surprising but I can tell you that every country has it own problems.
I’m not a blood, even though I’m wearing a red flannel and throwing up b’s in my video wearing red bandanas.
When you have to hustle to make a living but the government doesn't get a cut this is what happens
I think the arguments about gang violence in contrast between these countries is pointless. We have very different histories, and the cultural, and social effects obviously show. Im really happy for Canada not having to deal with a lot of the violence we do in the States. Glorification and emulation of lifestyles that are of struggling people in this country is really strange to see coming from somewhere else. It's also offensive to anyone that worked their ass off to get out of a dangerous area, and or lifestyle. People need to learn to embrace hip hop culture without trying to look like a two dimensional version of a music video they saw online.
How contorted is the criminal mind that says that robbing, assaulting and hurting others is "Some bullshit" and that the state is unjust or "profiling" when the police try to enforce bail/parole conditions! Ridiculous.
Theodore P Yh its pretty bizzare.Especially with youths when they intimidate communities and flood areas with drugs then feel inconvienced when the police pester them
Glad I'm not the only one who sees the twisted logic thanks for the reply Fatima
Theodore P You're welcome!
those are somalis for ya. I went to school close to here for a year, not fun at all. I would be in the library for lunch and take as many extra circulars so that I would not get beat up or get my stuff stolen.
tintan23 actually i think he was referring to the criminal mind.I doubt you were beat up everyday.
And conversley, i actually lived in quite a racist area as a child and has some unsavoury experiences.Yet i wasnt and do not go around saying 'well,there are white people for you' on every documentary relwting to crime where the subjects happen to be white.Get past colour and look at the wider socieeconomic factors and you may see some patterns.
Here’s where it started...Lil Wayne, Dip Set, the glorification of Blood gang culture in rap. I know...I lived it.... this is so corny
Save money u can make it out the hood don’t play victim theirs lots of work in Canada
simple.i worked in Windsor in summer 3 years ago and building we were workin on was 650 for 2 bed room I live in Toronto I and I know 2 bed rooms is over 1000 forsure
simple. I was talking building mayb their cheaper places if ur looking but that cheap for a house. honestly I like Windsor mayb one day
Okay so where did the 42 guns, 1 taser, 3 million dollars worth of drugs and 542000 dollars in cash come from? Were they legally owned or illegal? If charges were dropped in size many cases, how do you explain that stuff being seized? Even the guy you interviewed in the beginning seemed to have been busted for illegal gun ownership. What was his explanation for that?
He was selling drugs not running organized crime
@@2010RSHACKS Agreed! It is amazing how different people can fully watch a video, yet key facts are missed by some lol. He clearly said there is a lot of unemployment (70%) and misguided youth turn to drug dealing to get money. He was just of the opinion that there is no Mafia like syndicate in Dixon, as the media is portraying.
He was just feeding his family selling drugs like a good somali man.
Require all teens go through a work program starting at age 15 as part of school curriculum. Offer a fair minimum wage for the students from age 16 for the work they do while learning. Require a percentage of this go into college fund or fund that cannot be touched until 19 years old. I believe this will stomp out the need to feel like they belong to something important because they will be important to something positive. There won't be the need or urge to sell drugs! They will already earn spending money. The sense of accomplishment, looking forward to their future as college students... will take place of gang rank and street cred! Build up our youth before the street tries to raise them!
u don’t get it
She get it and well said
Why force work
Selling drugs and getting bitches is funner.
matching colours, guns, drugs, rap videos explicitly stating gang related terms and ideals - "we are not a gang" - its kinda laughable to be honest - to what lengths these people go to lie
I’m not from Canada but that’s what usually happens to Somali kids here in the US too. It’s the ones that never were good at school always got in trouble and they all eventually get together and do dumb shit together and be bums then they act like they’re in a “gang” to look tough. When in reality they have no aspirations in life and just blame everything on racism and the “struggle” instead of trying to become something in life.
And before you all start calling me a racist I’m Somali too I just believe in taking responsibility and not having a victim mentality.
Its more like dad figures being gone, and mother being left with 12 kids.
this is not somali culture...
gell abd yunooo im hella sorry for the parents man
G ABD fuck somali culture anaa wasa waxaas
@@mootjeaadan8507 jaahil madaxa ha laa toogto donqonyaow.
@@davew5303 its urban culture lol. A minority in Canada acts up and now all the Somali diaspora is like that? Grow up
@@ginomanshit2365 holly shit. If your truly are the person in your profile. There are more criminals that come from your background than us. Lol 😂
''i was in saskatoon... just about to make it'' ..... i laughed bro lol
USA has New York and Los Angeles, we have Saskatoon
Toronto is being improved, just like Minnesota.
minnesota is a cesspool and training camp for Boko Haram. It’s dirty af understandably
Minneapolis is heating up man lots of shootings
You act like a thug, you get treated like a thug!!!
