[QUOTE="KitanaVorr, post: 576527, member: 9167"] [b]The Four Gangs[/b] I'll post a map of of the Houston area later detailing some gang territories. Not all of you have to LIVE in the fifth ward or be from there. The action will take place all over Houston because the gang-related crime occurs all over thanks to the proliferation of cars in Houston (hence why houston has so much smog and traffic). There is a HUGE hispanic population living in Houston and though the general population is spread all over, the majority of "Little Mexico" is in the region of highway 610 and to highway 59 on Bellaire Blvd. The big market there is called Fiesta (its actually pretty cool). Los Lobos will hang out in there at the latin dance clubs there occassionally. "Little Saigon" occurs in two distinct places. There is a small area near downtown, probably southeast of downtown, southwest of fifth ward. That though has given way to the monster mall "The Hong Kong City Mall" and the multitude of more upscale vietnamese shops, medical centers (etc you name it, its there) that have clustered in the area. Chong Chong Tong will hang out there, and at a few of the popular disco clubs that are near the galleria area. Bloody Panthers main territory has been fifth ward, although they have spread out much farther. They are the oldest gang, formed during the 1960's. Its power though has waned abeit as Fifth ward slums have moved from mainly African-American to Vietnamese-American to Latin-American. They are starting to have a resurrgance as the recession hits. There are many diverse populations in Houston with "Little India", "Little China", etc... EDIT: Forgot this one Soliders of the Cross began as a Christian group from a local church wanting to protect their fifth ward territory from "hoodlums" and turned into a runaway vigilante group just as dangerous as the gangs themselves in their version of justice without a trial. Primarily caucasion, the group has deep inner strife waging between the various minority members (from minority churches) and the caucasion heirarchy. Some of the members are sadistic and violent than the other gang members themselves. They don't see themselves as a gang, but as an Army of the Cross out to clean the city of what they precieve as a pestilence. [/QUOTE]
