On the front page of Yahoo:

LA gang F13 accused of targeting blacks

Whoa whoa whoa. That's Florence 13.

I don't like their abbreviation. I can sue them for damages right? F13 is a corporation. I don't think a street gang is a corporation.

I just saw that a few minutes ago on the news. They look kind of mean.  I think you should leave them alone!

Do we have a gang colour?  I think red and blue are already taken so I suggest magenta.  We also need some hand signals done fast, preferably in ascii.

I live right near the Florence-Firestone area and Sky lived in Bellflower (I think) which is about as close to Compton as I am.

I was born in Bryn Mawr.  That's about as far away from someplace dangerous as you can get.  I'd like to be in a gang, though.  Come on, homies, let's do GANG STUFF!

Lol, thx for associating me with that.

I AM pretty ghetto though. I owe the local Indian convenience store a dollar. And that's all I got at the moment. I'm lying low and shit.

Yup... Pain in the ass though.

[edit] Speaking of L.A., I got a pretty cool offer up there, but that place is a bit expensive. If I lived on my own, it would most certainly be in the ghetto. I'm thinking I'm more of an East LA type than Compton though.

Bellflower is actually not too bad, or at least it wasn't before the riots. Lots of hispanic family areas, bordered by rougher areas. We lived close to one of those border areas, right off Alondra Blvd, it was a nice block but very rough a block away over Alondra. I mean, there were shootings and burning cars and stuff, but that's LA for you.

A company Righ (and me for a few months) worked for in England had an office in Llanrwst (really just so the owners could justify employing people from their favourite pub) , so I know exactly what you mean.

She doesn't like Rocky. I seriously doubt that she's from Philly.
