Never should they be admired. They were just a couple of killers who loved their family.
Stories like this are interesting
You can admire older gangstas as there was a code and rules, now they are just scared insecure kids
@@BadGrief they wouldn't be this interesting if they was of a different demographic
And young boys
@@Lillie839 Peopel are drawn to the criminal underworld. Its exciting, its dangerous, its an entirely different world from our own. People have and always will be drawn to stuff like this.
60 years on and still this odd fascination with two criminals
I dont get it either.🤷
problem is, they protected the community and people around them from other dangerous criminals, they were loved because the looked after there locals and helped alot of people financially, unfortunatley there legacy lives on because at that time there wasnt anything or anyone like the two brothers, prominent feared gangsters that controlled 90% of the east end. that made them respected because it was unusual to have that kind of power
@@nicktaylor1725 depends if you were one of the local businesses that were made to pay extortion money or have your shop burned down. Lots of stories like this coming up. Whether it’s true or not no one knows for sure
Dullards are fascinated with people like the Krays, who dared to say and do the things that pussies don't have the guts to do.
It's not odd, it's interesting. If you don't like it fine. Do you never watch a movie with a murder in it? Or some kind of crime drama etc? Of course it's fictional and not real so there is a difference, but you don't actually condone the criminals, you just take interest in it
indeed what they did was awful. but they were polite. when my mother was a baby in my grandparents house, the krays just showed up one day to talk to my grandfather about something. she was in her pram by the front door, and both ronnie and reggie said hello and greeted her, and shook her hand very gently. they respected people and had very good manners. as much as the other side to them is the one everyone knows about, and rightly so, as their actions were awful. but they had a good side to them
Polite but psychopathic monsters. There's nothing to be admired about them. My grandmother was raising her family in their neighbourhood and often saw the results of their enforcement and random acts of violence
Your grandad was on their payroll, your family was forced to believe that he was a good man because if they didn’t they’d get loan sharked till death. They ruined people’s lives for pretending they were good people, that’s what every mafioso/gangster does. They operated on fear in their false ideology of “respect”. No gangster is truly respected, they’re just slightly more helpful then the police because they get paid (in one way or another) to do illegal shit.
So because they said hello to her that makes them nice men? What about the business owners they robbed and the people they injured/murdered?
Ofc they are going to be nice to their own people do you not know the basics of a crime operation
Ronnie went in deep
Underrated
Literally 😂
Yes went deep in young boys
In kids arses
Balls deep
His fault was he was a drinker. Was it not a bigger fault that he was an absolute scumbag?
can see you come from money or middle class
@@elias560what does that have to with them being murdering scum.
@@Blaine_St_Cloud People who grow up impoverished or become impoverished are the people that become criminals
@@elias560 Neither of those two things are bad.
@@Tangerine3712 Who tf said it was? Why are you so sensitive?
The level of violence you're willing to commit for your family isn't an indicator of how much you love your family but your propensity to violence.
Terrible point. False dilemma.
@@YY-wu7et explain further...
Chris is such a gentleman. Yes he has a history, but now he is a role model
Who is he mate I'm not familiar
He was one of the firm alongside his brother Tony. He went to prison for the murder of Jack the hat when they all got sentenced
I’ve heard many people say if reg didn’t take his medication then things was gonna go bad.
Ronnie not reg
@@Adam....Mander Yeah your right reg!!!! 👍👍👍
i heard that too and it scares me for a reason
@@mohammedqadeer3422 'you're' 🤓
I heard if he was off his meds would cause a scene down the fruit and veg market, then have a tear up down the queen Vic or maybe that's eastenders
Chris spent years behind bars and kept quiet.. he regretted it later on in life, same thing with his brother.
You couldn't pick up a newspaper in those days without, celebrities and politicians partying and having their photographs taken with gangster.
Hi Chris 👋 it's trev Dec singer songwriter ❤ love ❤ Declan great work man rip 🙏 krays xx
The level of loyalty is beautiful tbh that's how I feel about my family lol
Most people love their family without going young murdering people and extorting money.
@@mf289 clearly you want beef lol having no fear of death because your family gets to live on and have good lives without you is something to respect whether we are talking about these mfs or an ordinary person
@@jasminemarley4680 lots of people do that without hurting people,
They were two psychopaths….pure and simple
I don’t think so. Reggie was goaded by his brother into killing Jack mcvitie while high on amphetamines and drunk on gin while emotionally unstable and grief stricken from the suicide of his wife. He needed support and all he had was a mentally ill unstable brother who regularly didn’t take his medication.
I rather see the Krays as not just participating in the game of life but getting up and dancing and singing.
Great guys tho.
Antisocial.
@@barbarabagatin8962Psychopath* Antisocial is just the PC way of saying it
As someone who's interested in medication and pharmacology big time, i am extremely curious as to which medicine in particular it was that Ronnie Kray was taking (or not taking as the case may be)?? If I had to guess, it would probably be Chlorpromazine or something similar. Obviously one of the antipsychotic drugs.
His fault was that he was a drinker... ....I thought it was all the murders and criminality
Balls deep
Im exactly the same with my bro. Every bro should be the same
Ronnie was also a kiddie fiddler 🤷🏻♂️
is there evidence of this?
Yeah he got kids for the elite aswell
@@captaincruelty where can i find storys of this?
Turned out all the young guys in prison
Thats why they got away with so much fir so long. Child snatchers for the elite
Why do people talk up them 2 Kray grubs..
This is why i doubt that Cornell supposedly battered Ron. Reggie would not have let Cornell get away with it.
Respect is not to be confused with love.
who else hears tom hardy saying all that
Deep in boys
Mentioned speed as an afterthought to drinking
Gin is bad.
Muslims are like, hold my halal beer 😂
Who wouldn't die for their brothers or sisters?
Me
If I had a brother or sister I would, but I don't.
didn’t they also admit to having an incestuous relationship with each other…? so disgusting
Pair of irons
What was Charlie like there big brother
Yes.
Very well respected. Had a pub at chestfield near whitstable.
Give me the Krays in those days, rather than those on the streets these days.
Don't be sentimental there were a pair of vicious nonces.
There was still street thugs in those days too. The Krays were their bosses.
People talking shit when there is no proof of anything anymore 😮
it's well known what they were like especially in prison, apparently if Ronnie took a liking to a young new inmate, he didn't take no as an option. Reggie too turned queer inside
I forget which one was the most dangerous, but one would nail your head to a coffee table and the other would use sarcasm. Neither a good prospect if you were on the receiving end.
🤭 are you mentioning a Monty Python skit on purpose or accidentally?
loyalty 🏴
You always die for your brother even if he is crazy
They were terrible, but what was his point was the last one? We all would love our siblings and would die for them.
They certainly did 'love ' each other !
Yeah, I heard something about that too.
Apparently they had sex with other in their teen years
What about his other brother ?
wouldnt last a month in london today...
Wrong if the krays were still about today london would have never have got the way it is today no way!!
Did you hear what he said. He was always drinking gin and taking speed. "There werent no drugs in my day" Yeah right.
Is he talking about Tom Hardy and his brother Tom Hardy from the movie New Super Tom Hardy Bros.?
Yes
Grow up
@@monkeytennis8861 ?
yeah i think thats what his talking about
imagine the average day with reg and albie
Just standard shizzle.✌️
Reggie was deep in the YOs
Both was LGBTQ and c.a.p nonce cases
Evidence
@@axecx2465it's pretty well known that both were into bum fun and young boys. I'm surprised you haven't heard that, it's pretty common knowledge
Bullies who could not control the Richardson gang
😂 coz they weren't. Bellend
Different kettle of fish. They were both raging homosexuals
Fair enough.
Reggie was a 👔 lifter I heard or was it Ronnie, maybe both ?
Both
So what??
@@cutekanjii nothing wrong with English s lifter people. They are all human beans
He wasn't deep and his fault was that he was a murdering scumbag.
Murdering scumbag?For murdering a professional hitman who had murdered many before his demise?Oh, how sorry I feel.
@@youknownada2326 You many think that it's ok to murder people, I don't. The Krays were violent criminals who corrupted police officers and terrorised decent people.
Its all soo boring now
HE USED TO SHAG GOUNGSTER IN JA8L3
Lol so am i the only one who thinks it isnt wrong to die for there brother?
No I don't think you're the only one but much better it's to take care of a brother and make our best to help him to fight and save for his health.
he's not just talking about dying for his brother, but killing others.
Loyalty among thieves
THEY WERE NOT NICE NEIGHBORS!
do tell
Playing loud jungle music all hours of the morning
@@stevenking8884 They're playing that bloody jungle music AWLLL NITE
@@stevenking8884MUTTLE
Murder is murder.
I believe that too,they were proper twins,🙏👍
Don't think they were really bad blokes deep down, they just had problems dealing with their feminine side. People didn't talk about that sort of thing then.
Born in the wrong time. London needs them back
People always forget to talk about their attraction to children
That is misinformation.
@@Gingenuity no its not
The best gangsters you never hear about because they never get caught
They... We're caught. What are you on about?
@Jason-tz7ir if you are any good at crime no one gets to hear about you the only people that do know anything about you don't advertise it and they are the select few they work with
They are misunderstood. Xx
Yeah well, incestuous poofs can be funny like that. Read Ronnie's interviews its all in there, in graphic detail.
What do you mean? I want to know
Reg was deep. Usually balls deep in a young lad
Or in Ronnie alledgely
Ronnie and reggie was only killers to other rivals these guys were awesome
Pair of bullys
Oye
So wait… the movie with Tom Hardy playing two brothers was based on a true story? 😳
Yeah…the Kray twins were famous gangsters.
Are you having a laugh
They sound lovely. It sums up England, that the lowest of the low are held (by the stupid) in such high regard.
Touts out
Nonsense this guy never knew them.
Both little jedwards..
The most famous english gangsters of all time, says it all really 😂
His fault was he was a drinker... all the murders were a bit of a fault, surely?
Top blokes they were lol.
🤣 01:23 of kzhead.info/sun/lNOgZsuwqquZpYE/bejne.html
Savages !
Paìr of wrong uns
As long as you paid up on time they were lovely guys. if you didn't pay........
Like colonel Custer
Chris lambrianou I'm not saying your lying just dont believe your being truthful , your wasn't even on the firm , neither was your brother tony who was treated like a goafer, you lived in Birmingham you just happened to be there the night Jack the hat got killed always baffles me why this one out of all of them stayed and cleaned up their mess , that's what sentenced him with them , i don't believe half these people's accounts on what was said because their all dying out now the ones who were in the firm or able to tell the truth have all gone
Did they like kids ? I heard they did 😡
Absolute nonce case though.
Talking as if they were normal
Well that never happened
Nonces
I know they were criminals and bad men but I find it very sweet how much they loved each other
Not sure it's sweet when you consider their alleged incest together
@@ratdog6317wait what 🧍🏻♀️
@@ari4830 well apparently throughout their teen years and alledgely into adulthood as well, they uh...loved eachother a little bit too much and so they would often...you know
🙄
They were very close
yeah i think so too
Glorifying thugs and psychopaths.
❤❤❤❤ the face of our beautiful Cheif in charge in the Big Ldonia ❤❤❤ we love you and will be waiting to meet you when angle of death comes IN SHA ALLAH (AND OUR ANGLE MOTHER) Alhamdulillah
This comes across in the film Legend, how much Ronnie loved Reggie.😊
He looks CGI
I met Chris in Canterbury a few years ago. Very nice man who found his faith in Our Lord Jesus Christ Amen. God bless you brother 👍♥️✝️🙏
They were toerags
They both was no..s
Tell me who wouldn't do this for Thier brother, if these two were still around, we wouldn't have to deal with half the s-_t thats going on now, because it would already be sorted
Articulate chap.
Well, that’s what you’re supposed to do. You’re supposed to protect your family. You’re supposed to take care of your people.
Don’t care
Pants on fire...
I think if you're not prepared to die for a family member than it says more about those who wont than yourself.
