102. Didn't the crips and bloods target Asians and Hispanics?
I guess that wasn't as newsworthy given the immigration nonsense. It sounds to me like they sowed the seeds of this when they targeted Asians and Hispanics during the LA Riots and beyond, and innocent people got caught in the crossfire. Did anyone forget the LA riots when they looted and burned Korean-owned businesses and beat any Asian or Hispanic person they could find?

It might count as a hate crime, but ethnic cleansing? From most of the replies, it looks like no one read the rest of the article. Typical immigration 'debate' nonsense and hyperbole. I'm guessing most of those gang members were native born US citizens, but of course no one wants to say that. Nor does anyone want to say that LA's murder rate dropped recently. I guess that shouldn't get in the way of a good rant, lol.

:rofl:
