Feds: Latino gang wages anti-black campaign - Crime & courts- msnbc.com

HAWAIIAN GARDENS, Calif. - A Latino street gang waged a racist campaign to eliminate the city's black residents through attempted murders and other crimes, according to federal racketeering indictments unsealed Thursday.
Five indictments charged a total of 147 members and associates of the Varrio Hawaiian Gardens gang, and federal and local agencies arrested 63 of them by early Thursday, U.S. Attorney Thomas P. O'Brien said at a news conference.
Another 35 defendants were already in custody on unrelated charges. Weapons and drugs worth more than $1 million also were seized in what O'Brien called "the largest gang takedown in United States history."
The indictments detail attempted murder, kidnapping, firearms, narcotics and other charges related to attacks by the gang, which is predominantly Latino and mainly operates in Hawaiian Gardens, a city of about 15,000 in southeastern Los Angeles County.
"(Varrio Hawaiian Gardens) gang members take pride in their racism and often refer to the VHG Gang as the `Hate Gang,'" the main indictment said. "VHG gang members have expressed a desire to rid the city of Hawaiian Gardens of all African-Americans and have engaged in a systematic effort to achieve that result by perpetrating crimes against African-Americans."
Shots fired into home
The indictment alleges a string of attacks on black residents, including a shooting into a home with eight people inside. The indictment does not say if anyone was hit.
In another instance, two gang members allegedly chased a black man, yelled a racist epithet at him and then beat him with a garden rake. The same man was later repeatedly stabbed by two gang members, according to the indictment, which charged them with his attempted murder.
According to 2000 census data, the latest available, Hawaiian Gardens was roughly 73 percent Hispanic and 4 percent black.
Hawaiian Gardens Mayor Michael Gomez welcomed the crackdown, saying: "Honest residents should not have to live in fear of lawless thugs who act like it's high noon at the OK Corral."
The indictments mark at least the second time in less than two years that federal authorities have accused Latino gang members of attacking black residents because of their race. Local officials have tried to downplay racial tensions.

^ I read this today BG.

I also wikied Hawaiian Gardens. It's the smallest city in LA county, and got it's name from a 1920s punch stand that had a Hawaiian theme.

This gang works under the Mexican mafia.

I know, as other who've lived in LA or had family there, that this area will likely decline a lot in the coming decades. Sooner than later.

LA County is a huge county. 9 million+ people I believe.

Huge and vast, but also the dregs of society. Mexican illegals that worked hard that I met said "muchas personas malas" (lots of bad people) as they experienced these things more than others in different parts of the city did.

Lots of weird/dodgy areas in LA county. Just think, back in the 1920s it was paradise. Orange farms, less pollution and less people and less crime.

Every place changes. Usually, not for the better.

Link?

[raycarey]

so we've reached the point where racial slurs are not only acceptable in posts, but also thread titles?

or perhaps a mod would care to explain how 'spade' isn't a racial slur.

[panama hat]

It's not if it's in the mod's everyday usage as well, I guess

Let it go gents. Not worth the pursuit - consider the poster.

As long it is not directed at any specific poster but used as a general term I find it hard to believe that anybody would care one way or the other.

It is funny how much "Whiteys" get up in arms protecting ethnic groups that are far more racist than most, to enjoy protection rule number one must be that you abide by the rules yourself.

I for one is not going to waste any energy protecting a group of Latino racists, nor the racist hip hop culture that according to the number of records sold must enjoy widespread support in the Black population.

Not all Negroes, Hispanics or Caucasians are racist, but I cry dry tears if the ones that are is described with a racial slur themselves if someone is so inclined, here on TD however I think it should be confined to general terms and not used personal.

I wont like it, but it is better to have the debate out in the open than suppress it with censorship, the only good way to solve differences is to talk, it is downright dangerous and unhealthy to allow something to linger and grow secretly in dark corners.

Here on TD we have a few posters who pretend to be defenders of morality and decency, but they have no problems using words like, racist, fascist and nazi about other posters which makes them no better than the, alleged in the wrong, target of their hysteria. If you really are superior and have the moral high ground you do not need to drag yourself down to your opponents level to make a point.
