I apologize Janet, you said taco trucks, as well as vendors. I worked today and I’m in speed read mode tonight. LOL. Disregard my recent comment, as there is no contradiction in your point. At first read, I thought you said that vendors were being robbed as well as extorted.

Janet, why would gangs rob vendors, as in strong arm, if they’re already extorting them? You said robberies on vendors are up, “too”, meaning, in addition to extortion. Doesn’t make sense. If gangs are extorting them, there’s no need to rob them. Also, if there is extortion, and I believe there could be, there’s no doubt the Mexican Mafia has its hand in it. So you’re telling me that gangs are robbing vendors that are kicking up to the EME? No way. Sorry. That’s instant green light status. (green light = Mexican Mafia’s hit list). Your commentary just doesn’t add up, Janet.

I don’t know where Mr. Hampton lives but doesn’t sound like in LA. Everyone knows the gangs extort from street vendors. Robberies are up on those taco trucks too. Just last month 5 robberies in the county of taco trucks. Gangs are desperate for money and these vendors take in thousands a week.

It aint happening, sorry. LA’s a sanctuary city so the street vendors have complete recourse. The gangs couldn’t extort them if they wanted to.

*****************

That is one stupid-ass comment, news-flash gangs use intimidation and fear to extort money and avoid prosecution for crimes. Drug cartels are not involved in dime bag distribution but the sure as hell are the major distributors.

That’s the dirty secret that WTF’s bullshit indictment doesn’t tell you. I don’t mind you guys getting your information from the evening news, which is the lowest form of journalism, designed to scare old ladies. But don’t act like you know shit because of it. Cartels aint running shit in America. Yeh they might own a few clubs in paisa neighborhoods but they are not involved in street drug dealing here in America. They do supply it at the other end, though. and they do things their way on their side of the border. They don’t do shit on this side of the border. But keep believing those right wing, anti immigration newsletters, genius.

Methamphetamine? I’m from Oakland, not Nebraska.

WTF, yeh, I forgot the Nazis in my comment about evil, where you forgot the slave trade, the Indian genocide, the Mexican American war, and the Iraq war. But you did give us 18th street. Ooh, ok, gang members are evil. Got ya. You’re still spreading false shit exaggerated by the media and law enforcement. You’re talking about I don’t know what’s going on in LA when you think gangs are extorting street vendors (drug game too lucrative to get involved with stupid shit like that) and that the Mexican cartels are running LA’s drug market! Ha ha ha haaaa!!!

Sr. Hampton sounds like a cholo apologist, you forgot to include the Nazis in your comment about evil. jejeje

You obviously don’t know jack shit about what illegal activities the L.A. gangs are involved with. I don’t need to read a federal indicment to “believe”, I personally know the victims of the L.A. gangs.

As George Lopez would say, tu eres … El Mas Pendejo.
