How about an oldie? "The Amboy Dukes", named after Amboy Street in Brooklyn. The gang became a breeding ground for members of Murder, Inc.
Louis "Lepke" Buchalter was a member, and became one of the biggest names in Organized Crime in the '30's.
Another street gang that ran around newyorks
hells kitchen was the westies,they would let
their services be hired out to mafia factions,
hard drinkers and violent personalities were
their trademark,they would handle any job
at any time,they were also associated w/
the IRA on certain things.It is my understanding that a small faction still exists in the area.

Another legendary gang of New York was the Fordham Baldies from the Bronx. They were immortalized in Richard Price's novel "The Wanderers" and the film of the same name.

here's my question. tupac, suge knight, dr. dre and snoop were all with death row. suge is a known blood. why would a known blood let a known crip (snoop) join his label? i know they hate each other now, but what about before they started to hate each other? -Pat

just because you seem to be interested in it, here's my advice for you:
read the book "Monster: The Autobiography of an L.A. Gang Member" it's by Sanyika Shakur (no relation to Tupac) and he was one of the best known gang members of ALL time. he's no longer involved, but this true story gives you a lot of information. -Pat
10th Street Gang in Reading
Its two leaders, father and son, were just indicted on federal charges, along with about 11 other members. Basically, they drew enough attention to themselves because they used a 12 year old to sell some crack around schools.
WOOHOO!

The Gophers-old gang from Hell's Kitchen
The Vice Lords-another old gang
Pat
Personally, I don't know. It's not like I can read minds. My theory...let the enemy in, he must nto be the enemy, get it? Meaning that if Suge let Snoop in, he could disprove claims he was slob...I mean Blood. "How can I be, isn't Snoop Crip?" Understand?

PS - Next time, just PM me the questions...

Snoop sold drugs to crips he wasn't actually a crip he just sold the rocks to them.

the gang in kansas city is called the kansas city boys. and the rodriguez faimly.
18th st. 1 off the biggest mexican gangs hailing from east L.A., Vario Norwalk, Hawian Gardens, Peacefull, Chivas, Artesia, E. Side Longo, Wilmas, Satanas, (most also have different "clicks 2 them)r some of the gangs i'm familiar with growing up in so.cal.
I'm also aware that back in the 60's when the bloods were formed it started out as an political faction like "the black panthers" b4 it turned into a street gang. anybody want 2 comment on that?
