A brave and fearless series, at times gruesome on the streets.
By Pork Chop
Gangland: Season Three, brings to light street conflicts im American
cities that is beyond the comprehension of anyone, in a brave and
fearless manner that is unmatched elsewhere, beyond the gruesome of
what is seen even, in the final moments of Taxi Driver, for example.
This series, in no shape, way or form glorifies conflict. Rather, it
builds on consultations with key humans who decisive that the
lifestyle wasn’t for them after experiencing it first-hand for a
length of time and concerned when it comes to it potential as a livelihood in
the medium to long term.
In the case of LA GRAN FAMILIA (LGF), based in Atlanta, GA, the
founding of the group was noble at first, opposing various
injustices and humiliation from school bullies. At a heap of point, this
goal changed to the pursuit of status, gold chains, glamorous rims,
Mercedes Benz cars, hotties, cash and the exhilaration of
instilling fear in others generally, and competing with and
defeating local rival gangs specifically.
About 5 years before the opening of the Atlanta Olympics and
afterwards – a time for the duration of when the demand for manual labor in
public works projects was high, as well as the remuneration – a
massive influx of aliens from Mexico and Central America occurred,
increasing it 10 fold locally, and the usual population of
everyone in metro Atlanta doubling as well.
Along with a much higher number of wealthy workers came a much
higher demand for narcotics and underground services, including
cocaine, meth, ecstasy, marijuana. It also opened the door to
extortion and manipulation of those migrants, who by necessity
required bogus ID and a means in escaping from the ICE (Immigration
and Customs Enforcement), such as altering living address regularly
remain untraceable by detectives.
With LGT, there are the rivals North Side 14, La Raza and the
Surenos. Through a well specified structure, LGT is made up of
Maltides 13, Latin Kings, Brownside Locos, Pachucos 21 and
Riverside Locos, all of those present to a great deal of degree in Atlanta,
Dikalb, Cobb, Gwinett and Hall counties, The only divergence is the
absence of distinctly specified territories, not similar to LA.
For those the inhabitants in the vicinity, living in fear is a
token, as residents decline in identifying members to not being
shown as complainants to the law. For those on the outside, tags
seen on the street suggest the presence of respective gangs, and an X
an opposition to it, hinting at animosity and imminent conflict.
The gang culture is present in other ways as well, through the
wearing of tattoos, a huge number of drive-by shootings, called
cliquing, (men, women, children), hiring lookouts, pushers, hand
signals, kick doors (home invasions, burglaries), car thefts,
weapons use (shotgun, pistol, machine guns), lavishness cars with bullet
proofed windows. All of this growingly catching the public’s
attention, as the ends warrant the means, with an increasing greed
and viciousness and frequency.
The RICO statutes and the FBI are deployed to sovereignty in those
operations, bringing members into the fish tank (detention), having
members roll over, and sentences decided.

True Crime Documentaries
By Seth Soul Man Ferranti
If you like these sort of unfeigned crime documentaries Gangland is a nice look. Street gangs, prison gangs, drug dealing gangs, it is all there- violence, violence and more violence. If you like this type of stuff check out the Street Legends series from Gorilla Convict Publications.

Gangland Season 3
By Jose Lopez
Gangland Seasons 1-6 is your frequent glamorization of the Gang Life,Of Street scum,Of what Liberals feel sorry for “The Disenfranchised”,The so-called victims of Capitalism according to the bleeding liberal,the Activist Judges,It gets 5 stars For INTEL that may be gained to fight fire with Fire. I don’t want to listen the same usual defense of the Fatherless children,the haves and have nots. I grew up poor,I never thought of Fighting the Man, I rather be the Man than Some Poor Excuse,Poor Victim.And Join the Communes and Ranks of Animals and sociopaths on bent on the elimination of their own peoples and neighborhoods,I don’t want to listen “Sociologists” talk when it comes to the Discrimination of the Blacks,Hispanics and so fourth and the banding together in Defense. All Weak justifications of Joining a Gang. You have Jesse Jackson(Like Sharpton,Race Baiters) Half Brother’s Connection to the Underworld shown here,so it is informative,but is it History? I think the History Channel Like a large total of Television has given in to What’s Hip? and Sadly that is Reality series and History of Street Trash.
