Oakland Gangs
Oakland gangs don't have running fueds like in L.A. or Chicago. But when you do hear of violence it is sporadic and usually deadly and are usually over drugs.
Ironically, the gangs here started when the Panthers died out and 'young bloods' started feeling dissillusioned. The Crack epidemic brought boat loads of drugs from Panama and the gangs banked in. The famous hustler, Felix Mitchel, who some claim "New Jack City" was modeled after came from 69 ville. Other street gangs include StoneCity, 11/5, 23rds, Highstreet, Acorn boys, 85 boys, and Plymoth rocks.
