As a Mexican born in Chicago I never had any problems with Puerto Ricans. My Dad was a big fan of Salsa music and his favorite baseball player was Clemente. I am married to a Puerto Rican for 5he past 31 years ,

I am Mexican born in Chicago. We moved to the Marquette Park area 55 years ago ! I didn’t have much problems with any whites. In fact my best 2 friends till this day are Polish and Lithuanian. What helped me was I have a typical Chicago accent and could pass for Greek or Italian.

Understanding of gangs would be Bukele from El.Salvador who scoured his country of gangs. I think your response is just that...to have something to respond without substance.

@@westlove1226 BEe it rhetorical or literal, you are simply refusing to answer with substance or maybe you just don't have the capacity to respond with substance so it's easier to say that gang banging ( such an antiquated word useless even) is not going anywhere. Gang banging has been crushed and squashed keeping certain demographics in the outskirts of society depriving them of opportunities.
