Organized Crime

At the end of the movie: It stated that she went back to Purto Rico.

If society is unorganized and we are in anarchy, then it's the perfect set up for organized crime. All people tend to cling to whatever they find most comforting, and organization is something most people like-regardless if it is criminal or not (Tiller. 2009)

Yeah, Crips are allowed to wear the color red, just as the Bloods are allowed to wear the color blue. The only rule is that Crips are NOT allowed to wear a red bandana & Bloods are NOT allowed to wear a blue bandana, but as far as a Crip wearing red shirt, shoes, pants or whatever, yeah Crips are allowed to wear red & the same goes for Bloods being allowed to wear blue shirts, shoes, pants etc....

Meet with the leader. and hang wit dem

With gangs, yes it does matter what side u wear ur bandana on. I'd highly suggest u don't wear any color bandana unless u belong to that gang. Because gang members look at it as a sign of disrespect when someone who isn't affiliated with their gang or a gang in general wears a bandana.

Not necessarily. Organized crime is activity that is managed by established groups of people. Usually these groups are made up of people related through some family connections. White collar crime can be committed by individuals as well as by groups. When a group is involved, it usually forms around a company or business segment and not family.

Nobody in Young Money/Cash Money has any gang affiliation at all, they're all just a bunch of false claimers.

this q*eer above me is full of fat black c*ck that is penetrating his loose a**hole and busting in his mouth because lil wayne is a piru blood and tyga is a blood, sorry for this fa**ots ignorance on gangs and rap stars.

The 21st amendment legalized the sale and consumption of liquor.

Any advantage would be temporary, membership in organized crime never ends well.

The 5 Deuce Hoover Crips wear the color orange & the Hoover Criminals wear orange.

The Gangster Disciples Nation(Folk Nation gang) wears the color black.

Tiny rascals gang was origionally a group of people who came to America after they lost there parents in the killing fields of combodia, they had been tought and bred on violence so they made a gang called tiny racals gang (TRG), at first they only accepted other asians and Asian Americans, after a bunch of the members broke off and created the Asian boyz (ABZ) they started accepting all kinds, both members of ABZ and TRG alike have tattoos showing which gang they belong to, they have that tatoo kinda like a signature, they also "tag" building with different symbols, ABZ usually does ABZ with AK-47s on each side of the letter, TRG usually does 7126 (its written in a fassion so that the 7 looks like a T, the 1 and 2 look like a R, and the 6 looks like a G) . the ABZ and TRG are still bitter enemies to this day, calling each other roaches (TRGs name for the ABZ) and apples (ABZs name for the TRG) they still accept anyone who is willing to tatoo the gangs symbol somewere on there bodies, most people who quite are killed or beaten mostly to death. that's really all i remember aboutt he topic, the tv show "GangLand" did an episode on TRG and ABZ history, you might wanna check that.

The KKK subjugated black people, prevented the organization of the Republican Party in the South, promoted Prohibition and targeted moonshiners and bootleggers, and used violence to intimidate people.

Bloods hate Crips & Crips hate Bloods, this has been going on for years this Blood and Crip war dates all the way back to the 1970's. Really though Crips started first they formed in the late 1960's then the Bloods came in the early 1970's basically as a response to the Crips, because the Crips were killing and robbing other smaller gangs and random people with no gang affiliation at all for no reason. So basically all these smaller gangs banned together and formed the Bloods to fight off the Crips from bullying them.

So-called "white collar" crime refers to that type of crime that involves criminal financial manipulations and/or business transactions, usually perpetrated by "executive-type" individuals.

Street Crime refers to the run-of-the-mill offenses that occur every day throughtout society (e.g.: robberies - assaults - auto thefts - bank robbery - burglary - etc - etc).

Yes. Both New Orleans and Florida have notorious organized crime families.

The mafia was supposedly created because the Italians wanted to have more freedom and because in the part of Italy where it is from, there was always violence.

A crime is an act that is against the law. Deviant behavior may be criminal in some cases but it is not always against the law.

== == It is assumed that Frank Lucas is in the Philippines. ---------------------- There are two famous living people with the name "Frank Lucas", a politician from Oklahoma, and a drug dealer. The politician is currently representing Oklahoma's 3rd congressional district in the House of Representatives. The drug lord is still in the United States; he visited the Big Apple Con in November of 2008, in New York. ----------------------- Hey who knows he could be in Africa, only 2 people know.

No, Nortenos are not Bloods. They are two different gangs, the Bloods gang is under the Blood Alliance & the Nortenos gang is under Nuestra Familia(Our Family in english).

The only thing they have in common is they both wear red, but they are not the same gang.

The Latin Kings are the oldest, largest and most organized Hispanic Street Gang, which has its roots dating back to the 1940s in Chicago, Illinois. Latin King documents reveal a man by the name "Gino Gustavo Colon" (a.k.a. Lord Gino) is considered the "SUN" of the Almighty Latin King Nation in Chicago and has been for a long time. Latin King headquarters is located on Beach and Spaulding in Northwest Chicago. Luis Felipe created his version of the Almighty Latin King and Queen Nation "manifesto" based on teachings he had picked up from his time in Chicago, the "motherland." Felipe designated himself as Inca and Supreme Crown. In 1995 Antonio Fernandez was designated Inca and Supreme Crown of New York State and New Jersey, and the ALKQN once again began a transformation Part 2 The Almighty Latin King and Queen Nation (ALKQN, ALKN, LKN) is the largest Hispanic street gang in Chicago and the largest "Chicago-based" street gang in the United States--meaning nation-wide. The ALKN has nearly thirty thousand members in the city of Chicago, with another ten to fifteen thousand members in the surrounding suburbs. The Almighty Latin King Nation first emerged in Chicago during the 1940s when several young Puerto Rican males organized into a club. Their goal was to help each other overcome the problems of racism and prejudice that newly arriving Puerto Rican immigrants were experiencing. Although the original members were of Puerto Rican decent, most members are now Mexican-American. Besides these two groups, they are now mostly composed of Dominican, Cuban, Mexican, Central and South American members; and some African American, Asain and Middle Eastern members as well. As time progressed, the group's members became involved in violent crimes including murders, drug trafficking and robberies. Members of the Almighty Latin King and Queen Nation vowed to lay down their lives for their "Nation". Unfortunately this also meant extreme internal discipline and organized fear. Soon the Latin Kings rose to be the most feared gang in the Illinois Department of Corrections--to the administration and inmate population alike. In 2000 there were approximately 1600 self-admitted Latin Kings in the Illinois prison system, and these accounted for over half of all the recorded violent acts on prison personnel and other inmates, making the ALKN the most violent prison gang in Illinois (Federal Bureau of Investigation, Fiscal Report, 2000). A couple examples of the Latin King's "ruthlessness" are the stories of Carlos Robles and officer Lawrence Kush. In 1981, the leader of Chicago's southside chapter, one Raul Gonzalez (AKA "Baby King") of the Latin Kings had a "run in" with a member of the northside chapter of the Latin Kings. What happened was that the leader "Baby King" was basically "disrespected" by an inmate known as Carlos Robles. Because Robles was basically in the same gang, just in a different geographical unit, Baby King approach the leader of the northside chapter of the LKN, Gino Colon, and got his "blessing" to change Carlos Robles permanently before he is released. About two years later, when he was in the Illinois State Penitentiary, inmate Robles would get his "violation" for disrespecting the southside leader of the ALKN. Two of the most whacked out members of the southside LKN chapter were chosen for the "hit". Robles was to be murdered. These were two gang members who were heavy PCP users. The way the "hit" was carried out was quite clever. The two Whacko's intending to kill Carlos, basically told him they were throwing him a "going away party". Robles was scheduled to be paroled in two days when the hit took place in July, 1983. As is common in corrupting correctional staff, the two hitmen got permission from the cellhouse guard to use the basement for the going away party. The basement of the cellhouse unit has the showers the inmates use. Carlos entered the basement of the cellhouse with the two whackos for his "parole party". They proceeded to use their homemade weapons. Not little "shanks" as homemade knifes are called, but rather the much larger Machetes, usually about two feet long and made out of heavy gauge steel. First they cut off Carlos' head. Then one arm, then the other arm. With a little hacking, off went one leg, then the other. They chopped at the torso, cutting it into smaller pieces. The head was the only body part that could not be sliced up into smaller pieces. The arms and legs were then chopped into smaller pieces. Blood was everywhere. But all the two whackos did was turn on the showers and let the blood run down the drain. Basically washing off the body parts. Members of their own gang, cooperating upstairs in the cell house, helped next. As the two whackos placed the body parts into plastic bags, a "diversion" fight was staged. This allowed the two whackos to go through the tunnel which led to what was then the butcher shop area of the prisons kitchen. The Black inmate working in the butcher shop that day was a member of the Gangster Disciples, and as a "Folks" gang, is always opposed to Latin Kings (a "Peoples" gang). The two whackos asked him for a favor, for which they would reward him with some drugs and cash money. They asked him to "grind" up the body parts in the older meat grinder that was there, a very large commercial grade meat grinder. On the menu for the evening meal that night at Stateville Penitentiary was "meat loaf". The GD in charge of the butcher shop, once offered the drugs and money to grind up the body parts, simply asked "who is in the bag". The two whacko's replied "he is one of our own", not one of yours. The GD agreed, and ground up the body parts with the pork and beef that was also going into the meat loaf for the evening meal. Shortly before the bells rung for the inmates to go to evening chow in the inmate dining room, two gangs already had much advance warning about what not to eat that night. The GD's and the Latin Kings spread the word amongst themselves: don't eat on the main line tonight. In the dining hall that night, only the gangs that did not know the real recipe for the meatloaf ate their food. Some inmate chow hounds were pleasantly surprised to find so many friendly Latin Kings and GD's offering their entre for the evening meal to other hungry inmates. No traces of the skin, bones, teeth, or blood of Carlos Robles were ever found. That is for years. The skull bone apparently simply "rolled around" in the meat grinder like a basketball spinning on a net rim, and thus it had to be buried. The skull was dug up in 1995 in the yard at Stateville (see: "Skull Dug up in Stateville Prison", Chicago Tribune, April 16, 1995, p. 2). And on July 1, 1989 a correctional officer at the Stateville Correctional Center, Lawrence Kush, Jr., was assassinated by the Latin Kings while on the job. Attacked from behind with pipes and other weapons, Kush would die a day later, but was one of 30 officers on a "hit list" prepared by the Latin Kings (see: Jerry Thomas, "Gangs a Rising Threat to Prison Guards", Chicago Tribune, November 28, 1993). Why did the Latin Kings target correctional officers? Clearly, all evidence points to one thing: the officers were doing their job, and that meant they were a threat to the inside drug business of the Latin Kings. This incident and many others sent chills up everyone's spine as a forewarning to avoid any conflict or confrontation with the Latin Kings. The gang has organized chapters in numerous states across the country. These gang sets are referred as to as "Chapters", with each reporting to an Inca and Caciqa. The head (or heads) of the entire criminal organization are known as "Coronas". Some of the characteristics that sets the Latin Kings apart from other gangs is they consider themselves to be a community-based organization. Because of their apparent contradictions, it is often debated about whether they are a criminal organization or a positive force in the community (as they have obviously taken on both roles at different points in time, as well as simultaneously). They preach Hispanic pride and all Latin Kings are encouraged to live in accordance with the principles of KINGISM (a moral driven awareness of social oppression and the desire to uplift their people to their rightful place: "amongst the thrones of Kings and Queens"). The Latin Kings operate under strict rules and guidelines that are conveyed in a lengthy constitution and follow the teachings of the ALKQN Manifesto which was written by a highly intellectual Latin Kings (these documents are referred to as the "King Manifesto/Constitution" or "KM/C" for short). In this manifesto you can find traces of Marxism, Christianity and other revolutionary/historical world-views which when combined make up the ideology and morality of "KINGISM"--which are centered around the upliftment of the poor (the "Oppressed Third World People") and the struggle against the oppressive social, political and economic existing order of things. To begin their meetings, members may face the East (which is where the Sun rises) and recite one of the various Latin King prayers to Yahve (The Almighty Father and King of Kings)and pledge to be ever faithful to the Nation. These meetings are also used by members to discuss recent events, dues, retaliation, position responsibilities and elections etc... When compared to most street gangs, the Latin Kings are generally more structured and organized. The gang's rules are strictly enforced and some members celebrate January 6th as "King's Holy Day" and the first week in March as "King's Week."
