You are in my area bruh. I released my turtle there and walked my dogs and bought my house here. It was affordable 10 years ago but now the houses are over 700K. I bought my house at 350K but now it is worth 750K with the renovations. Inflation is crazy. I am a new subscriber to your channel. Keep it up and stay safe out there.
Back in yr. 2004 during the green light, I remember having a run-in with a TRG member in L.A County Jail during line movement, coming from the Long Beach court tanks. I was with some homies from Longo as we spotted a TRG walking in line with us back to the modules. We were waiting for the right time to get on him. As we were walking down the hall way towards our modules, there was another Asian trustee which was standing off to the side at a podium, he seen that the Asian was slipping and greatly outnumbered, so he hopped in the line movement right next to the TRG dude (that was very commendable of him.) As we hit the escalators up to the 2000 floor. We were now outta sight of the police. We got it crackin', it was like 4or5 on 2. Although we got on them, they definitely stood their ground. Hats off to them soldiers 🪖🪖. Big respects to the Asians 🫡
Funny how you talk about this and I was part of the group the Spanish gang hate the most, because in my member that members did the work, but I didn’t even know all this. Maybe be cause I left California and just hit back after a year and a half. But I end up catching a case in Los Angeles in around 96 or 97. I was sent to twin😮 tower jail in LA downtown. When get jail house cloth and you gotta change all eyes was on me. But no one said anything. I end up in a cell tank with all Mexican gang banger from different hood. It was holding tank before they process you into a unit for general population. Eye again on me like 20 of them. I see a few walk to one Spanish guy that so jack up in muscle he was 3 time my size. I made sure my back on the wall so I can see everything. The guy walk to talk to the other jack up Spanish dude walk right to me. He ask me if I was apart of this certain group. I reply yes what’s good? All he said was you gotta roll out or they will leave me in the infirmary. Which is like the clinic. All I said, do what you gotta do I see I’m out number, but I’m not going out like that, either you jump me or give a fair one on one even if I to fall win or lose I’ll respect you more. All I hear the jack up Spanish dude said something again in Spanish. This guy like 250 in pounds cut in all muscle. Along with the other 3 standing next to him. But somehow, many just back off. I ask what’s good we doing this or what’s, the jack up dude I guess he run the shit because they listen and he said to me, don’t talk tough I just give you a pass because I’m tired and I don’t want see them roll us or hit with a pepper spray. I stayed shut after he said that, but still wonder how the whole cell come eyes on me. After like 4 hours later the correction officer come by ask for me calling my name. I walk up he ask you Asian right? I said yes. He open the door told me to step out. Ask me how the hell you survive almost 6 hours in there. I pop the question you know something I don’t know, he said yeah your boy in Long Beach are most hated especially your set most of all. That how he knew when he read my report that I was Asian and who I run with. You right they place us in PC. Two man to a cell and all Asian. 24 hour look down. Food eat in your cell. Shower only twice a week we had to do bird bath which is wet towel wipe your self. Pay phone already in our cell to make collect call. Different set was in that Unit of PC rival and all. Finally my cell mate told me why. He surprise I didn’t know and how im same set that started all this. Told him I left Cali for a few months but end up a year and a half. I caught a case in Boston that’s why it was long for me to come back. Soon as I hit back after a week caught that case in LA. My grand parents and uncles use to live in Long Beach I visit as a kid. I might be from the set but I’m not Long Beach and I haven’t talk or visit the homies yet. I’m from San Bernardino that the city I rep even though we from same gang but different city. But we are one. But yeah I was never racist. If I bang it about gang. And that night how I was save, I thought maybe many time I let Asian or Spanish enemies ride when the rest of my crew would have taken flights if I don’t stop it. I always have my peep fall back. Not because I’m scare, but I feel sympathy for people sometime when they out number. You catch group of 2 or 3 and like 15 to 20 of us. I know not a lot of banger would think the same or would do that for me, but that’s just how I am. Plus we having a good time, if trouble come for us I have it differently, we handle it or If it’s fair in number I’m all in. If you know they hold, you better have your hands locked and ready to move first to because sometime it the 3 walking in the 10 or more you’ll know they holding to walk up like that. So you eyes all hand on them don’t wait to pull if you know. Crazy life it was but that not how we should live. But I’m to old Now, all this other grudge for nothing is just killing yourself. Everyone feel like only they lost someone’s when both side have. I respect those that RIP from both side because they put it down for others to respect us, but to many life lost over not understanding each other because we different, but they know who we are now and we speak in same language now to understand each other. And what hurt most now, even with the name we made for ourselves, is killing each other that was once fighting together because we were pick on. That picking die out even now it’s just gang bang. Money over banging is what they all should do. Keep up the good work brother, I’m new to your Channel you’re doing great. To everyone else that reading no matter what race, be safe and live well
During the late 80's 90's and early 2000's the higher-ups of the Hispanic gangs were trying to unify all the Hispanic gangs in Southern California and in order to do that the higher-ups needed to create a boogeyman (crips/bloods) so when longbeach asian gang members came out on chris blatchfords Fox news special saying fvck all Mexicans i remember the guy that they were interviewing that said he was a Mexican killer got killed when he got locked up, but it was a godsend to the higher-ups they used it as a scare tactic to unify the Hispanic gangs by saying they hate you so we will protect you but on the flip side they MILKED alot of taxes from the Hispanic gangs so it was never about protecting the people it was just an opportunity that came at the right time during the LA race wars to manipulate the people
I like the way you dont say any names. Not only is it safer for you, but it also restricts the glorification of gang life. 👍🏼 I'll go ahead and drop a name though, shout-out to the TRG homies!! 😬
salute to my cambodian american warriors. time to rise. we need to rise economically and socially and make a name for ourselves in mainstream society. love from australia
Yes.. first we need unity.. me myself knows I can’t go at it alone.. my TH-cam channel wouldn’t make it without Khmers and supporters watching and sending money.
The main thing is that you are stiil here and a survivor, and that is why you are a O.G. I'm pretty sure some Asians in the LA country jail system at that time fought it out with any South Siders at that time. Much respect.
Yeah.. it was a lesson in life.. nothing that pays the bills later in life.. the older South Siders probably found out later in life they were just pawns in a game that no one wins.. peace and unity in Los Angeles County much better .
@@urbansurvivorguy You are so correct, because know one wins in the end. Also the Longos lost a lot of members in the war with the Cambodians, so that is why the Mexican mafia had to greenlight all Asians. Also the Mexicans learned that your community are not punks.
Honestly not sure.. I know it died down and people more worried with keeping their own kind in check.. but I’m not up to date with the street life information anymore.
It stopped in the between the late 90's to early 2000's based on my experience. Oriental Boyz in South Central is under the protection of Florence. I as a Cambodian myself is cool with some of the biggest and oldest hoods in the LA county. They basically accept me as one of them so I'm an honorary Chicano. All my friends are Mexican because I went to schools that are mainly populated by Hispanics.
Was it true, that before the green light came out, TRG , barrio pobre, and westside longo was cool with each other, but was forced to to allie with Eastside longo , to take out TRG..
Not correct, my boy. The green light had to do with more than that, not just with TRG. The truth is, at one point it was just about every Asian gang, crip gang, Samoan and even BP, BST, & PL against the ES Longo and they were still not able to take Longo out. Even Asian gangs that beefed it with one another, we’re going against the Longos and they still held their own. A lot of bloodshed for sure. Then with the green light it ended up being every hood (black, Samoan, Asian) against the Eastside Westside and Northside Longo, as well as BP and BST. Longo is there til this day. A lot of lives lost on both sides over a bunch of nonsense. 80s and 90s were definitely crazy.
At this day and age, we don't need to live and have the mentality that we are segregated. It is a system created by politics; to control and maintain power. This is why we as a minority in LA county live on a welfare system; all of CA. All everyone wants is to live the American dream. However the system doesn't allow it. But if you put your mind through it you will make the right decision. What I've learn growing up is to be by yourself. You don't need a group of people. It will create more problem even when it isn't yours. You can have friends but you want friends with the same mentality. Gangs will always be around. Gangs are no different than a warlord in the ancient time. Thank for sharing brother.
Living the "American dream" has lost its appeal with all the foolishness going on in a society that's deteriorating rapidly. Lawlessness, inflation, increase crime all over the country. Lack of leadership and vision from politicians. Digital/internet era taking off at warp speed. Store fronts closing down at record level in california especially. People are closed off and don't act like they used to like back in the 80s and 90s. Yeah the gang war was deadly but it was a better time. Outside that gang world, people were friendly with one another. People did shopping and eating out. Everything more affordable including housing. Now people prefer to shop online. Only grocery shopping people still go out to do. American mainstream media is and always been brainwashing propaganda tool. Entertainment industry also... everything govt and corporate owned.. if people were all taught basic survival classes in school instead of useless things that's not useful in real world, people would be less dependent on govt. Most people can't even make fire to cook. We all rely on electrical grid system that govt owns for our energy consumption. We all pay taxes to them for any and everything. We buy or rent a place to stay from them. Shelter is a very basic need every human should have without all tricks and gimmicks the govt teaching us is a normal thing to do. Why can't everyone just build their own house? Land shouldn't belong to anyone. Why can't we work for ourselves? The problem is greed and selfishness. Humans have not learned to overcome these bad traits since going way back into prehistoric times in history. We need to think deeper. Have bigger perspective. Develop our own value system and not what society wanna dictate to us or even our own friends and family. Be individualist but also be collectivist at once. Think about yourself not to the point you are selfish. Think about others not to the point you neglect self-care.
We need to think about long term sustainability across all spectrum to keep the society alive and flourishing. If people don't want to build their own house, hire someone else who can. That person should not be any govt worker or belonging to some corporate entity. Give less value on money system that does not circulate around to the people but directly to politicians and corporations. Our beautiful advanced moha nokor khmer kingdom used the tried and true barter method of exchange of goods and services. They got their power source from what this spherical ball of energy called planet earth had developed and evolved into for billions of years of its existence. Using crystals, precious metals, copper, gold and silver to supply them with energy. And of course, "preah athit" solar "chan" lunar all reliant upon their own cycles of energy and power.
@@urbansurvivorguy Cambodians got green lighted for targeting innocent Hispanic citizens on the streets period end of story and since the southerners couldn’t really differentiate Cambodians from the other Asians they just bundled them all up and green lighted all Asians just as they did with all the maravilla clicks
The Cambodians were not a special super gang that had to get green lighted cuz they were invincible it was because they were cowardly targeting innocent civilians
This topic needs an in depth coverage. It’s a classic case of new immigrants vs old ones. No different than the kid being bullied at school and later got fed up and decided to fight back. Sad that the Asians had to go thru that with the Mexican becus I’m sure the Mexican had to endured the same treatment from White folks.
You're a little before my time. I didn't hit the L.A County Jail until the end of 2003 into 2004 sometime. So i can't even speak on before that time. Appreciate feedback though. Keep doing your thang bro 💯 🫡
pac man, yamamoto, ohtani, bruce lee, jackie chan, jet li, monster inoue, jeremy lin, micheal chan, black widow (pool shark) yao ming, shohei, christian ohsoi, & tons more... asian pride for life!
In the 80 ‘s and later on when the Cambodian people started to coming in to long beach Ca. Those Mexican gangs were not not happy to share with anyone else . I know a few got killed , a few lock up , a few more got deported . You’re right , They were racist with hatred to Cambodian people. Take care stay safe yourself 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏.
What do you expect they fought them in the vietnam war can you imagine coming back and theyre in your back yard my uncle fought in vietnam he lost alot of friends to them
@@ronsanchez4366 you have to remember the immigrants from Cambodia and Vietnam were allies with America. Majority of the Vietnamese are from South Vietnam. They fought and died together with US soldiers.
@@D2E80 no more like they ran my uncle said he never saw any fighting next to him and it was their country we lost more than they did and they didnt continue to fight they ran away now Vietnam is a better place together people are happy
@@ronsanchez4366 thanks for sharing that. North Vietnam was backs by China and USSR, once the US backed out the South Vietnamese had no choice but to lay down arms and run to the US. Why was the US in Vietnam? Simple. US needed a fort on Chinas northern border (South Korea) and a fort on Chinas southern border (Vietnam). The long game was to invade China from both north and south and loot it and Balkanize it so that it can never challenge US supremacy is Asia. Same game being played since ancient times, China was and is the grand prize. Communism was just the narrative being sold to the population so they could send their sons and daughter to die for the elites.
It still some issues here and there but it was hectic early 1990,s.., can’t exactly say when it died down.. but it’s much calmer now.. less race wars.. and gangs go at it..
@@urbansurvivorguy look I'm not trying to stir shit up but before you make videos state facts not things that pop up in your own mind. I was raised in LB in that era did time 7 plus years in the system which I'm not proud of but facts bro facts.
pit-twister-OG Boney 1 of the original founding member from TRG.......Snoop and Em from ABZ were my cellies....we was deep asf in Vegas about 70 asians in one dorm lol
I can't say the name of the organization that was responsible for the green light but the 90s was a freakin' WarZone in the EastSide. When the 2000s came alot of the brothers got deported.
It wasn't original Mexico. It was actually Spanish Empire that help expand Mexico. Conquistador enslave the native Aztec after the fall of the Aztec Empire.; Fall of Tenochtitlan battle. Mexico does have a beauty history similar to the Khmer Empire. Its sad that both has fallen to failed politics.
@@thelastmohican-k6x Alot of history in Srok Khmer. Yeah I've red about it. They didn't conquer Khmer Empire but they did on the Philippines. At the same time Khmer Empire was battling Siam and Siam was battling Burma rule on them. Khmer was starting to loose little by little; fighting Champa from the East and Siam from the West. A lot of politics during the colonization era.
@@urbansurvivorguy Please do talk about yourself. What I mean by Khmericans, just in case, is the Khmers who were deported back to Cambodia. There are videos about them but I'm curious if you ever met some and what are your thoughts regarding their predicament?

asian people are the best... work our butts off, low pay, stay and care for family, honest & dont bitch!
That’s why Asian Americans highest incomes in America

Was it true, that before the green light came out, TRG , barrio pobre, and westside longo was cool with each other, but was forced to to allie with Eastside longo , to take out TRG..
Sounds correct to me.. at one time BP and Rascals were teamed up.
Not correct, my boy. The green light had to do with more than that, not just with TRG.

Think about yourself not to the point you are selfish. Think about others not to the point you neglect self-care.
We need to think about long term sustainability across all spectrum to keep the society alive and flourishing. If people don't want to build their own house, hire someone else who can. That person should not be any govt worker or belonging to some corporate entity. Give less value on money system that does not circulate around to the people but directly to politicians and corporations. Our beautiful advanced moha nokor khmer kingdom used the tried and true barter method of exchange of goods and services. They got their power source from what this spherical ball of energy called planet earth had developed and evolved into for billions of years of its existence. Using crystals, precious metals, copper, gold and silver to supply them with energy. And of course, "preah athit" solar "chan" lunar all reliant upon their own cycles of energy and power.
U forgot to mention the Cambodians we’re targeting innocent Hispanic civilians on the streets that’s why they were green lighted
Always two sides of the story.. I only know one side can’t speak of the other side I don’t live.
@@urbansurvivorguy Cambodians got green lighted for targeting innocent Hispanic citizens on the streets period end of story and since the southerners couldn’t really differentiate Cambodians from the other Asians they just bundled them all up and green lighted all Asians just as they did with all the maravilla clicks
The Cambodians were not a special super gang that had to get green lighted cuz they were invincible it was because they were cowardly targeting innocent civilians
This topic needs an in depth coverage. It’s a classic case of new immigrants vs old ones. No different than the kid being bullied at school and later got fed up and decided to fight back. Sad that the Asians had to go thru that with the Mexican becus I’m sure the Mexican had to endured the same treatment from White folks.
Yessir!! Same old stories of new comers getting bullied by locals.
Cell living in the L.A County Jail has always been integrated, never segregated.
Hmmm.. wow .General population maybe .. not green lighters
@@urbansurvivorguyyeah you right on that, they definitely took the Asians off the line during the🚦
You're a little before my time. I didn't hit the L.A County Jail until the end of 2003 into 2004 sometime. So i can't even speak on before that time. Appreciate feedback though. Keep doing your thang bro 💯 🫡
pac man, yamamoto, ohtani, bruce lee, jackie chan, jet li, monster inoue, jeremy lin, micheal chan, black widow (pool shark) yao ming, shohei, christian ohsoi, & tons more... asian pride for life!
Cool.
In the 80 ‘s and later on when the Cambodian people started to coming in to long beach Ca. Those Mexican gangs were not not happy to share with anyone else .
I know a few got killed , a few lock up , a few more got deported .
You’re right , They were racist with hatred to Cambodian people.
Take care stay safe yourself 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏.
Misunderstanding between two different cultures..
What do you expect they fought them in the vietnam war can you imagine coming back and theyre in your back yard my uncle fought in vietnam he lost alot of friends to them
@@ronsanchez4366 you have to remember the immigrants from Cambodia and Vietnam were allies with America. Majority of the Vietnamese are from South Vietnam. They fought and died together with US soldiers.
@@D2E80 no more like they ran my uncle said he never saw any fighting next to him and it was their country we lost more than they did and they didnt continue to fight they ran away now Vietnam is a better place together people are happy
@@ronsanchez4366 thanks for sharing that. North Vietnam was backs by China and USSR, once the US backed out the South Vietnamese had no choice but to lay down arms and run to the US.
Why was the US in Vietnam? Simple. US needed a fort on Chinas northern border (South Korea) and a fort on Chinas southern border (Vietnam). The long game was to invade China from both north and south and loot it and Balkanize it so that it can never challenge US supremacy is Asia. Same game being played since ancient times, China was and is the grand prize. Communism was just the narrative being sold to the population so they could send their sons and daughter to die for the elites.
How they green lit but run with crips n bloods?
So do Southern Mexicans get along with B and C? You answered your own question
When did it stop. What year and when did it die down the race issue?
It still some issues here and there but it was hectic early 1990,s.., can’t exactly say when it died down.. but it’s much calmer now.. less race wars.. and gangs go at it..
Where are you getting your info. Nothing your daying is facts bro.
Please elaborate.. and let me know.. also if possible make a video showing your face. Easy to dismiss online without a face to recognize.
@@urbansurvivorguy look I'm not trying to stir shit up but before you make videos state facts not things that pop up in your own mind. I was raised in LB in that era did time 7 plus years in the system which I'm not proud of but facts bro facts.
❤❤❤ 😊
Thanks . Much appreciated
Was there any other SEA gangsters like Indonesian, Malaysian, or Thai?
Honestly don’t know too much about those races.. sure they had their own gangs .. but not much street gangs.. maybe more in organized crimes.
Asian/islander car in Cali prisons
I was locked up with Boney Twister Pitbull in Vegas 99 Stewart facility..Boney and Twister cool cats
Wow.. name rings bells.. isn’t Boney deported to Cambodia already?
From where sre they from?
pit-twister-OG Boney 1 of the original founding member from TRG.......Snoop and Em from ABZ were my cellies....we was deep asf in Vegas about 70 asians in one dorm lol
I can't say the name of the organization that was responsible for the green light but the 90s was a freakin' WarZone in the EastSide. When the 2000s came alot of the brothers got deported.
The Organization is called the Mexican Mafia that controls all Southern Mexican street gangs in Southern California.. very powerful organization.
@@urbansurvivorguy big bro be careful about speaking their name. They take disrespect very seriously. Stay blessed.
Whoa!! Outnumbered 10,000 to 1 doesn't sound like good odds!! But true that California was once part of Mexico.
That’s right! Thanks
It wasn't original Mexico. It was actually Spanish Empire that help expand Mexico. Conquistador enslave the native Aztec after the fall of the Aztec Empire.; Fall of Tenochtitlan battle. Mexico does have a beauty history similar to the Khmer Empire. Its sad that both has fallen to failed politics.
Almost all of the Mexicans in California now are immigrants from Mexico, they aren’t from California.
@@junkmail562 spain also tried to invade cambodia in the year 1593. look up the cambodian - spanish war. the cambodians won
@@thelastmohican-k6x Alot of history in Srok Khmer. Yeah I've red about it. They didn't conquer Khmer Empire but they did on the Philippines. At the same time Khmer Empire was battling Siam and Siam was battling Burma rule on them. Khmer was starting to loose little by little; fighting Champa from the East and Siam from the West. A lot of politics during the colonization era.
When you r at home, do what u want. When you in public, be considerate to everyone involved.
???

I grew up in a small town in PA with 5 khmer family, we roll with the Amish horse and buggies, lol.
Dam.. I was there also in PA.., guess that’s where the Church’s help Khmer refugees.. maybe better if I stayed in PA
That’s how 😂 the Cambodians roll in Long Beach Cali’ Gutta City!
It is.. what it is..
Can you talk about "Khmericans"?
I have been.. but I can mainly talk about myself since everyone is different.
@@urbansurvivorguy Please do talk about yourself. What I mean by Khmericans, just in case, is the Khmers who were deported back to Cambodia. There are videos about them but I'm curious if you ever met some and what are your thoughts regarding their predicament?
I have just noticed your new video addressing my question. Power to you! Mit somlagn!
Talk on 69st if you know
Freeman street, Walnut street, 69th street.. already know..
You act nervous.
Can’t speak on certain things.
Aye your a story teller but your tripin about them got us green by the Mexican
Please tell your story.. especially online with your face.. we would like to know the truth.
@@urbansurvivorguyYes, a bit of Comparative History 101 would be really entertaining.
Talk about your own
Yessir!
