    Teardrop have a lot of heart. Whether it’s streets tales or wisdom dropped I wish him all the best.

    Teardrop had some great stories there and he was an OG! As he was being interviewed by you, Mike, I admire his style of speaking about his past and he is not arrogant. He is right. When we are young, we think we are invincible and we live for the moment! Excellent live interview!

    He captured my heart in an earlier video when he said he boiled baby oil and threw it on the face of the racist dude in jail that his mom wouldn't even recognize him.

    I was a member of BTK from Jersey City from 1988 until 1989, Steven was the Tai Lo of Jersey City BTK. I was 15 years old and I only spent 1 year in the gang, because I moved to Southern California.

    Of all the CGS interviews I don’t believe I’ve ever seen teardrop mingle with the other former gang members like Kenny or big head for example. Is there still friction among some of the groups because of the past?

    • @chinatowngangstories
      @chinatowngangstories  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      No friction amongst anyone. They let go of any beef in the past and moved on. Many of them banded together in prison. More interviews coming…

    The the BTK was tough group. But I notice a lot of you gang exaggerate about things that you. Part 1 gang member saying that was shootings every single was like the old west and I'm not saying they weren't shootings I'm not saying there wasn't. I hung in Chinatown from the 70s to the early and it was not the wild west

    • @chinatowngangstories

      If you were there you would know. Over 100 shots fired in the cemetery shooting, dozens of shots fired at the Tung On gambling establishment wounding one and countless other times UZI was used (more stories coming). If you were a detective, it would have been a nightmare scenario recovering and vouchering those shell casings. You wouldn’t be home for days. No exaggeration, just the facts. It was actually worst than the Wild West. They weren’t using six shooters.

      We were mixed. The core members were Viet Chings, but had a sizable Native Vietnamese members, some ethnic Chinese, a few Cambodians, 2 Filipinos that I know of, and we even had an Indian guy.And that Indian guy was very close to David Thai.
