It's really heartwarming to see so many young men learning sign language 🙏
😂😂😂
They keep their communities safe AND educated!
Heart breaking for them to use the N word… they people before them crying
@@dashawnrobinson6436it’s just a word
amen
I knew someone who I went to school with who was an active Latin king. I last saw him when we graduated and the last thing he said to me was “you’re gonna see me on tv one day, stay safe bro I’ll see you” 5 weeks later he was shot in the face and died by a rival gang. Sure enough it was on the morning news. It’s sad, he left behind his girlfriend and his 1 year old boy. It’s very unfortunate he didn’t stop even after having a child, we all just want to live peacefully day by day.
The one who was with a female in a black jeep who also got it ?
Kings don’t die they multiply 💯
@@elguerokabron no that was a different shooting that happened downtown, it happened that same night though in little village
Shie condolences but he picked his life :/
His girlfriend just left my apartment lol piped her all night lol and the kid just chilled in my living room hahahah
respect for showing up at all, selfishly on my end if you stayed up until 8pm it would've been a HELL of a video, but you gotta trust your gut bro
He couldn’t have posted it if he stayed
good content!! he's brave af for going to active Chicago hoods
Scary movies 🍿

My dad is a (nearly retired) Chicago cop and he said there were guys throwing gang signs during the Mexican independence parade. He told them “you can do whatever you want, just no gang signs” and they respected him. Nowadays, there’s too much animosity and morals have left the street scene so that would never fly.
How bad is this with the influx of migrants? Getting much worse??
We don’t care Gang
@P-9080 i think he was saying gangs nowadays don't care...we don't care gang. But he could've been making fun of previous comment too. But that's his point...no one cares...that gang has grown massively in size since the 90s
Puerto Rican parade the dumb ones mark themselves to disappear.💯
yea all that 90s sitcom family matters, after school special shit is out the window now
As a Mexican it really pisses me off to see these guys around our flag. Especially when their parents who are actually from Mexico most often don't even approve of this type of behavior.
We are a majority they are a minority
Seriously they’re an embarrassment, bunch of nobodies who think they’re cool, they have no future literally
Dang, wait til you hear what happens in Mexico itself, makes stuff in the US seem pretty small potatoes in comparison.
@@mtns340ong i have family down in tijuana and theyve told me cartels straight up terrorize the citys
Mexico has its own reasons to be ashamed to spread that flag. Fuckin hypocrite
This is a gem of a channel. The content is unmatched.
You’re amazing at on the spot interviews
Suspect
So many of us like myself grew up in the same neighborhood, yet we stayed cleared from the gang environment. It comes down to parenting and their presence in a child’s life to weed out the bad influences.
Yeah, i used to rent an apartment in the same hood,mostly those guys were cool and calm, even offered to smoke with them, I guess it was because they saw that you showed respect for them acted cool and didn’t front..
ANY regular, positive role model in a child's life greatly reduces the chance they get caught up in this.

i love content like this tbh
Tommmy love the videos and content you put out, just think you gotta thug it out til the end. They do this everyday, couple hours ain’t shit.
It's a shame how most street gangs started with humble beginnings and, along the way, have become corrupted and tarnished to the state they are in today.
What else parallels this other than everything
calm down
Leadership was dismantled. over the years the people that led the gangs and kept them in order got locked up over things.
They got a good head on their shoulders. Don’t trust the government, stay strapped, protect family & friends from threats. Whats really corrupt is the pharmaceutical companies, the WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM. Bill gates. Oprah winfrey. Etc…. George bush. Biden
@@MrOizoand blame the corruption of chicago
As a Mexican who lives near 26 it makes me sad what happens to those who run small businesses. It’s hard as it was before but now it’s just getting worse. 😞
That makes me so angry. Leave the damn vendors alone. When I see that on the citizen app, it’s like why? They work so, so hard.
You guys have no idea what y’all talking about, the small business in 26th be getting hella money we do not steal from our people it’s just blacks coming to steal get your facts right ! The vendors love the Latin Kings we never steal from our people !
We are not latin. Latin are people who have bloodlines through european countries. We just have indian blood.
Im a filipino whos always lived in Chicago but consider my spanish brothers here my family n hermanos. It makes me pissed too these vendors are victims of robbery. We wouldn't tolerate theft of street vendors in the barangay phillipines we should have our own security for them that stay with them whenever they post up. If you are not a paying customer you get interrogated or beat until you leave or dropped off to the local gang and tell them they robbed they fam the elotero man. Have a rammer drag u up n down 55. Or if u crazy vlogger for clout like boonk or jonny somalia you'll get dealt with too.
@@ClaireBluestoneis them blacks that be robbing this vendors and it’s sad because this guys ain’t taking care of there hood like they supposed to!
Great journalism Tommy! I learned so much about the part of Chicago that I don't visit .
This was a really good video Tommy !
As a Mexican from Mexico, this makes me sad. Why can’t we be doctors and real influential people? Represent twenty whatever street? Who cares? Do you actually own property? What does this actually do to promote prosperity in life? It’s fucking embarrassing.
💯 I say the same thing all the time The kids don't learn from their hard working parents but also sadly some parents don't try to motivate their kids to be better
Culture. Look at the Asian immigrant community.
Its a result of the American worship of degenerate "culture", if you know what I mean.
Yeah bro I mean I’ve seen it first hand. These dudes are hurt, come from homes where their parents are either drug addicts or just never around. These dudes go to the street and feel “love” from those dudes and in turn continue the cycle. Personally I’m thankful I never drifted off into this, but I hope these brothers can make a realization one day!
@@Mr.Nobody180its called being profoundly damaged in itself its kind of a disability
I grew up in south LA and I am so unbelievably grateful I wasn’t directly in a gang territory. I was around a lot of it through friends and my area wasn’t necessarily nice but I couldn’t imagine losing my parents so young or having to deal with so many struggles while trying to get to where I am currently. I’m absolutely thankful for how/where I was raised, I wish nothing but growth/prosperity/peace for these communities
How were you in South LA and not in gang territory?
@@llga76 LA county is very very big and south LA is not all gangs and violence. However, the city next to mine was filled with gangs and it is true what they say, it’s by street and block. Some parts further away are even very nice! It’s crazy how in LA can have a block full of mansions and then it can be very ghetto and dangerous the next
I was born there, my mom moved me to Vegas when I was 4, because All my family is gang members and thieves. Stay up fam
Chicago now always been wilder than la it goes back before prohibition. Ppl been goin on planned killing sprees here for a long time. Ever since devil in a white city, larry hoover 60s and up till now. Currently there's a serial killer loose in south side Chicago and nwi but they dont want to talk about it. Everyday theres bodies. The lake the river abandoned house in a car in a river. Some might not be found till after spring. So it makes murder very easy and harder to solve. Nobody talks

Bro keep doing what u are doing. Keep preaching
I was born in Chicago at Cook County Hospital and I'm so glad my parents moved before I had to grow up there!! 💯💯💯
My brother was going towards that life but thankfully he told my mom that they wanted to initiate him and we moved. That’s why I pray for all of these young guys who are part of that life, may God bless them and open up their thinking. There is nothing like being at peace and not having to watch your back. My brother is a different person today, he has a good job and he is trying to finish school and if he could do the change so can you.
Doing the change is hard But anything with God is possible fs
As someone who was wrapped up in a gang during the 90’s I can honestly say this lifestyle is not just dangerous but most of these kids will amount to nothing. Not just dead or in jail but once it’s over and everyone around them disappears they will live a mediocre existence full of regret. It really is corny.
i live in chicago and this is exactly how i see it. theyre all cornballs and 90% or more have no future which is really sad. but at the same time its all self destructive. they teach the kids the same thing and 20 years later theyre getting killed too. endless cycle of worthless existences
Fighting for turf that ain't theirs and never will be
Foreal before you know it theyre 35 with 3 kids doing the same shit
I'm from Dallas tx I was raised in two of the worst top 3 intersections in the city I ended up disabled for life from gang violence I always thought I'd ether do football numbers or letters locked up or I'd be dead but never imagined my lifestyle would leave me disabled.. your life can change so quick mann you get it how u live these kids will hit a dead end & there's no turning back..
@@luigianolind8978 💯💯💯
Growing up in California, gang life culture is everywhere and it’s so easy to get wrapped up in it as a child and many of my close friends were involved in that lifestyle and I can 100% say I only didn’t completely go down that path because my parents were around and they were a little strict, they needed to know where I was at and who I was with, if I was staying the night somewhere, they needed to know or meet their parents so I can without a doubt say having parents especially a father in the household is so important. I also was encouraged and loved playing sports so that also helped.
U could see the pain in his eyes when bro explained his parents, I hope bro makes it in life
“When bro explains” Was that even English and why do you “ straight people always say bro everytime you talk?

Latin kings didn’t start in little village, they started in Humboldt park by puerto Rican’s. Also there’s black Latin kings in little village too, Tommy just happened to interview 1 of the 20 or so blocks in little village that didn’t have many. The Northside, Westside and Eastside is FULL of black Latin kings.

Was gonna say what Mexican started LK 😂 everyone knows that’s cap. Terrible reporting, he could have easily googled that
there not only in the south either theres some from the north pole
Good looks on the guy asking if Tommy G wanted a vest. Goes to show that even gang member have a small part of them that have hearts and sympathy towards others. Most of these thugs are young kids with no guidance and poor discipline. Yes they do terrible shit and deserve the consequences of there actions, but arrested gang members doesn’t get to the root of the problem that creates systematic gang violence. It starts in the home, support system, education, communication, and opportunities for the non privileged. Love from Italia 🇮🇹
Latin kings in Chicago is more structured

Oh please, stop making excuses for poor decisions. Try living next to these losers like I did for 10 years. Phucking idiots running around ruining peoples days because they like it. Has nothing to do with being “disenfranchised.” Plenty of people grow up poor and turn out as good people.

Do part two!! ADR
Tommy, thanks for putting yourself out there to bring us this content. Watching this video brought back some not so happy memories. I grew up in the same neighborhood as the young men in the video, many times dodging bullets on the way to school and/or the walk back home. Education was the way out of that place for me and now I would say I live a privileged lifestyle in the western burbs of Chicago. I think what most people don’t understand is that sometimes you truly don’t have a choice and to survive you have to associate with “clicks”. So much I would love to say, but the internet is likely not the best forum. Thanks again.
Its not a privileged life style if you worked for it
@@jihadinternetdefenceforce 100%. What I meant was that I where I live now is a bubble in comparison to little village. I can walk around wearing an ap watch without having to worry about someone robbing me, lawn is manicured and professionally landscaped, I can leave my doors unlocked, etc.

The Mexicans from Los Angeles and these ones from Chicago are so different. I was in Mexico City and Guadalajara and Culiacan last year and people showed mad hospitality so I always have love foe Mexican people and I'm black.
as a mexican who was born in culiacan and raised in california , now living back in culican after 15 years i literally have lived both lives, i grew up a troubled teen involved in gangs , drugs and violence , to be back here in sinaloa puts a whole different prepective in what life is really about, my people here are nothing but love and hospitality .despite culiacan being a Narco state people here are kind,respectful and so friendly , makes me rethink the choices i made , i wasted so many years focused on the wrong thing , mexicans killing mexicans that shit makes no sense to me now man hating a literally refleccion of yourself ... STUPID im so glad to be back here and im loving and eenjoying every second of this second chance i have at life !

I appreciate Tommy coming out and getting these stories told by the people. It’s also crazy as someone who doesn’t even mess with the gang life has to deal with it all since I’ve been living here since I was born.

My dad grew up in little village until one day he witnessed he best friend get shot up right outside his house and was scared he was gonna die young so he wanted to kill himself and the day he was gonna do it my grandma walked in on him about to shoot himself with a hollow point round and they started crying and she told him they were gonna leave chicago for the better and came down to McAllen Texas where he met my mother who was his next door neighbor and after a few years they had me and my brother's and sister and now my dad lives a great life with us and we occasionally during the summer go to little village where my cousins live and visit them and go to literally all the places you did and a little bit more.

he didnt wanna die young so he wanted to kill himself makes sense
As a native Chicagoan, somewhat older at 33 and grew up in north Lawndale “holy city” and south Lawndale “little village” this shit is spot on, the part about not kings not being racist and true and false, it depends on the situation and what’s going on. I went to Farragut high school in little village and was cool AF with a few Latin Kings and I’m black‼️ I’ve been on 26th shopping hella times and never had a problem, if you obviously not banging and bringing trouble, you come though on 26th and it’s all love💯
Finally someone knew what he talking about🙏 most people in the comments just talking about they racist asf and they obsessed with black peole
I heard they was racist as hell at farragut
Are the kings in the village vlk?
@@sincity5268if they Puerto Ricans they shouldn’t be racist because they black they damn selves. Mexican too but you just can’t see it as much as you can with the Ricans.
But as far as getting robbed, you don’t run a business on the side of the street in a “hood” “favela” “barrio” and expect not to be robbed at some point. Regardless of what “race” the gangster is. They run from their country to escape violence and poverty just to come to another dangerous country with violence and poverty. The violence is just less extreme in most states here as it can get in central and South America. But being racist towards your other people because of a language/culture barrier won’t help.
As someone who lives in Chicago its sad 1 - 2 people die every day same with small business everyday 1 or 2 gets robbed my dad works for the fire department and he works in englewood and i was spending the night there and there was rifle shots I slept trough them though but firefighters also get shot too for nothing and their equitment gets stolen so in summery your never safe in Chicago but i'm still alive and I love the city so yeah.

@@favorsoe8248Nah def not all the young ones. Really depends on area. Just like around me you got white; black; and Latinos who’s mold to the environment and it’s a lot of older folks too who live it. But even in the heights I still knew some really great and even nerdy or emo kids lol. There’s one guy around here too who grew up as a little kid selling crack for his dead until he went to jail and got out just to be gunned down and he went to jail too for him to recognize the cycle and work hard to end it. It gets extra hard when you become a felon too though which makes it harder to break cycle and seek real work, most people have to move to get out. That guy hasn’t been in a gang in years and he still can’t go down certain streets

Great video, but I think Pilsen is a bigger hotbed for Kings. I grew up in Chicago and rode with Simon City Royals. All our Ops were from Pilsen and Humboldt Park.
Hell nah, I lived in Pilsen 7 years ago. Everyone knows Pilsen only has Satan Disciple, Ambrose, Bishops, Latin Counts, La Raza, Party People, and two or three other small sets. No Latin Kings in Pilsen at all.
Been watching since the prank vids, I’m so glad you hit that 1M sub milestone and started hitting your stride after the Kia Boys doc. Damn Tommy G, this was hands down the best vlog-style gang documentary I’ve seen on YT. 🤯

Oh please, blacks could easily not kill themselves over a few thousand dollars and the "pride" of running a block. Every city has a black crime problem, even cities with under 300k, it's always the same demographic.

The Latin Kings were founded in the Humboldt Park area of Chicago in 1954 by Ramon Santos as the Imperials, a Puerto Rican progress movement with the goal of overcoming racial discrimination. With the Latino community facing constant violence from Greek and Italian greaser gangs, the Imperials merged with various other Puerto Rican and Mexican street gangs to form the Latin Kings. They would later devolve, because Mexicans turned it into a criminal enterprise operating throughout the United States.
Truth
True. But on the eastcoast, the Latin Kings are still majority Puerto Rican. It was a Cuban, King Blood, that bought LKs to NYC in the late 1980s-early 90s, NY LKs we're strong up until the early 2010s, King Tone slowly killed the gang in NY. But go to areas like Cleveland, Buffalo, Rochester, parts of Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Florida, you'll still see Puerto Rican Latin Kings.... Not only is most Chicago LKs mexican, but Chicago along with NYC is losing large numbers of Puerto Ricans

Had a Latin King come and help roof my crib. He’s still affiliated but said that life is bogus. You think they’re all down for you but when he got locked up nobody was sending him money, his own homies were spreading rumors and almost got him hit in prison. He said your best friends will eventually turn on you. Youngsters stay the hell out of that life. I asked him if his kids were members and he said hell no he’d beat their 🍑 if they ever even thought about it.

It’s so wild to me. These guys are young and in this situation. They seem happy. I guess that parts good but I hope they can find some peace and maybe something that drives them away from that life.

It makes me sad (and embarrassed) as a Mexican to see other Mexicans living in horrible places with bad influence. Like our parents came to this country for a better life. But instead these young kids join gangs instead of going to school and having a goal in life, to become someone, to succeed.

Every kid comes from a different household. Even if their parents came for a better life, what kinda life are they giving their kids when all they do is work?? If they don’t spend time with their kids. They don’t give them any love. Providing alone doesn’t make you a good parent.
I was downtown for Riot Fest on Mexican independence day. The traffic was beyond insane, but the amount of people out celebrating their heritage was even crazier. 99% of it was people just playing music, singing, dancing, fireworks, and a general good time. There was hardly any major violence outside the gang centers, it looked incredible to be a part of. Tommy G you gotta go back to Chicago during Puerto Rican celebrations they apparently (according to my friends in the city) go absolutely nuts. I was told they regularly shoot off fireworks from inside their cars, and don't stop partying for like two weeks straight.
Whoever told you that lied lol the Puerto Ricans are only lit for that day 😂 yea they get a couple streets up north bussin but can’t nothing compare to Mexican independence. Not tryna make this an argument or comparison but whoever said they get lit for weeks is a lie 😂😂

@@ChrisHernandez-wu4dxI live in humboldt park, once it hits june they’re turning up riding around w their flags and honking everywhere, the park is filled w hella vendors and shit but on the actual parade day the streets get shut down bc of all the cars driving and celebrating. It’s really big as well and hella lit
Same I went for riot and the traffic back home was crazy
Video was dope as always, especially the last bit at the end. It’s cool to see you make an effort to understand the circumstances people go through and experience from their perspective.
Do a story on the Maniac Latin Disciples Tommy G… there also another Hispanic gang that doesn’t get talked about
bro kings are all over cook county even the burbs, my school is right next to their turf so I go to school w a lot of em. They all go stories yknow js cause they in a gang doesnt mean theyre bad people. I like that u show that, they all js protecting their neighborhood and the people in it
Man we need longer videos tommy love the content
I can not believe how far you have come my guy. You are the definition of a fucking grinder bud. You know you got mad respect when you can pull up to any hood
Im thankful af for moving up north into Albany Park 😂 I used to live inna Ville till I was 17…it’s an ongoing war over there rn
A lot of these guys are actually really nice and cool. They’ve gone through a lot, and life has made them do things like this.
Who was with tommy since the beginning! Happy for his success he worked for it and made it happen!
Need a longer video of this one!!
Omggg i go to little village and I go to the mall y’all went to 😭
Same
My sister is an ER nurse in Chicago and has see the aftermath of all this violence...she won't even watch the news cause she says she sees enough bad stuff already at work.
im sure normal chicago citizens are happy about these guys
Yeah of course kings been in chicago since the 50’s
It becomes normal
we unfortunately used to it
It's sad and infuriating at the same time. Most humans strive to do better and be better people. They are the opposite of evolution and void of a future.
ok boomer
The best one yet bro you need to go back to make part 2
My dudes brave for doing this stuff
w video
As a Mexican myself. This is so embarrassing to watch. I hope these people find there peace. This is not the way to live. So glad my parents migrate to where they did. A totally different life style.
its not that embarrassing chill out this happens all over the world with all types of backgrounds
All ethnic backgrounds feel embarrassed when they know their people can be doing better. I feel embarrassed when I see Black gangbangers acting stupid.@@twasbeast4266
These cholos protect poor immigrants who have to walk and commute from other races who prey on them. We respect these cholos out west .
