Facts; my boy is from Rialto, my uncle lives in SB as we speak. I’m out there all the time visiting, & I know how funky it gets. ****, if I’m being honest, the gangs out in the I.E r probably funkier than the gangs in L.A b/c they don’t get the same respect or clout. They tap in heavy w/ L.A, but they’ve created their own identity by how they move. I know L.A dudes that went down there trying to flex & got chalked out. Lotta land, and abandon homes to bury bodies, too.
Hence, I’m cool w/ everyone I meet, stay low key, don’t advertise myself, & give respect. It’s why I feel comfortable wherever I am, but I’m always leery, too. My homegirl just thanked for me for always protecting her by how I move when we out. At first she used to call me paranoid, & that I fight demons & ghost from my past too much, but after what happened, she texted “I thank u for making sure we’re good at all times, & I love how u watch over me no matter where we r; scary times. I get it now.”
