Gangs are a result of pirate mobilization. Pirates who deviate survival and do not steal out of necessity are opp NPCs.

worst part is many people have this idea that dominicans are violent or drug dealing people which is so wrong many of us work very hard & live a decent life

Young Trinitarios are different. The older ones were noble and were against abuse and bullying.

Ya Hollywood keep making films about gangs like you did with the mob and turn them into fkg heroes

Gangs are a cancer for society!!! No question about it!!! 🙏🙏🙏 RIP to the innocent victims!!! 🙏🙏🙏
@SamaelMoneyStein March 22, 2024 - 12:26 am
OGs claim the gang life is dead. I kinda agree with that but in my opinion it died the second the weekend warriors started calling the 24/7 hoodsters broke dudes. Like if gangbangin is supposed to be making money. 🤡 shtt.

Blaming social media instead of the gangs.. cultural Marxist never blame the actual culprits
😂😂 and then wonder why their cities get worse and worse. Blame the guns, white ppl, republicans, the victims, social media anything but the culprit 😂😂😂
It’s funny to watch the break down in logic. The democrats and democratic cities destroy themselves despite their finger pointing.
@user-tk3fi5rp2t March 22, 2024 - 12:26 am
They have the most out of touch commentators and contributors 😂😂😂
@user-tk3fi5rp2t March 22, 2024 - 12:26 am
Soft on crime cultural Marxist Vice has a lot of nerve placing blame..
@RobinGarnett-bb9ct March 22, 2024 - 12:26 am
The bullshit media might explain, why it's all good with the community guidelines to be able to upload gang videos, that disses other outfits only a few blocks away, but takes down videos of individuals that don't promote hatred & violence.
Of course, no explanation for this idiot policy. Day in day out the media has porn placed via links to link to youtube teen channels in the most sinister and subliminal way, but this is all okay. I know why I don't have social media available and the idiot box at home.

Irony in action...how vice mythologizes gang lifestyle.

Let’s watch death wish it’s got a message

As long as mayor Adam's is the mayor of New York, those gangs will never go away. They need a guy like Rudy Juliani back in there to get their streets cleaned up again. In all honesty, Rudy Juliani had the streets of New York livable and extremely tolerable.

Pretty cool to see a much older, fatter man with much less life to live just casually go "nah kid you cant hide here from murderers" and then to just walk along behind the kid as they drag him out to kill him.
Dude looks so dead in the eyes during this.
Another reminder folks, dont have faith in your fellow man, adult or not, we have all grown to serve ourselves. Noone else and nothing more.
