[NINE'SICKS]

Well alot of things are different in L.A then in the O.C, there are alot of smaller cities inbetween these two major ones and sadly things like this happen more often then people think or know. One reason why this was so publicized bye the media is the obvious 'Assassination of Deputy' but they dont tell you about others, ie: attempted murder, extortion, money laundering, intimidation, and plotting to smuggle drugs and cell phones into state prisons. All comming from Los Angeles based street gangs controled bye the Mexican Mafia.. For whatever reasons every major gang has its (for lack of a better phrase)15min of fame.. and attract alot of attention from feds/local cops. This investigation happens to target 'The Avenues Gang'. let me say it another way because i know im not good at explaining things, even if the sheriffs deputys murder Didnt take place, the multi-agency police raids Still would have happend, this just made it happen alot quicker..

Now to go back to your reply: at the moment this happend around the North/East parts of Los Angeles (Glassall Park, Eagle Rock, Highland Park and Cypress Park) inbetween Glendale and South Pasadena. Things like this dont usually happen around Beverly Hills or NoHo (Van Nuys,Burbank) but in the Hollywood,Sunset and Santa Monica areas there are crimes like this, i remember cruising home from work and seeing 'Crime Scenes' taped off and a body on the floor so it just goes to show it happens all over.

Ive lived my whole life in the East L.A area (Commerce,Montebello,Pico Rivera,Whittier) I was into alot of differnt things growing up and this is what i see.. Now as many bad things we have going on we also have good things, really nice parts of L.A hidden in the 'Not So Nice Areas'

I hope this kinda answers your question sorry if it doesnt make sence, if u have other questions or comments please postem up here or hit me up on palringo room :highfive:
