LA cops raid gang areas

Post by SyntaxVorlon »

In the Nickerson Gardens area of Watts LA a shoot out happened where gang members of the bounty hunter gang (a subgang of the bloods) who had shot at a police patrol car in the early morning. Then two hours later, 400 police and feds stormed in to get the leaders. Scared the neighborhood shitless, but they got ALL of the drug houses at once.
This is at the very least a good thing to hear.

anyone who just randomly decides to start shooting at a police car for no good reason has rocks for brains. Hey jackass, this isn't Liberty City and there are no wanted level cheats in real life. morons.

Good to see they nailed these idiots. If you shoot at cops maybe they should be allowed to shoot back once they're in custody?

Well, not if they are already in custody. But if you kill a cop, when the cops come after you, you probably won't reach custody. :wink:

the last time a guy shot a cop (he was killed instantly) in my city, he was promptly turned to swiss cheese by the 7 cops who came through the door behind him. Well, that's not counting the time that Providence's finest shot and killed one of their own.
