Here is OG Big Country from the LA 59 BRIMS: FILE TO BIG HOLD ON

Let me see if I can upload Big Country from the L.A. Brims. Big Country was 2 years older than Lil Country

Here's a picture of Big Country, he passed in 2012 of Nov. He and some other cats started 59 Brims which was between 59th & Hoover uP to 59th & Figoueroa and when his family moved to San Diego and he helped start, I want to say the Logan Park or Logan Ave Brims. They might be one in the same. I live...

Okay, I think I'm back on track. Let me see if I can upload this picture of Lil Country from the L.A. Brims.

I finally got a few pictures of Lil Country and 1 of Big Country from the LA Brims. Now how to upload again. FILE TO BIG. OH LARD. LET ME TRY SOMETHING ELSE.

I got to tell y'all this lmao; I am on crazy meds too. I take a low dose to keep me calm because when not on it I become very aggressive. So it helps to keep me out of trouble. no I don't be high just level. They want me on 80 mils but i take 20. I'm still a legend in my own mind. lol loving and liv...

I don't hold any malice toward anyone today. Like the person wrote even a thug need love. I believe that you got be able to give it back too. Yet to continue banging and hurting people and seeing people hurt needlessly is now beyond me. When we died we can't take nuthing with us and while we live we...

Thanks my fellow x gangbrother. It hasn't been a easy road to stay focus because people either makes you want to hurt them or their is suckers running around loose that's looking to be hurt, but I'm learning to let me make it not them. I learning to allow people to be where they at and get the hell ...

If people could drink or shoot bleach safely we would do it just to get high, but when it comes to striving for security, a home, education we mostly give up. When I took my 1st drink i threw up but wanted more. I should have said no more for me but it took me damn near 22 years to stop drinking sam...

if there's a will there will be a way to get around whatever the Gov put out. Remember they stop giving the food stamps because they weren't being spent right and they went to cards and people got around that. So why is anyone surprise? While I was living in Los Angeles, last year you could buy hamb...

When I begin to get clean in 1990 I just did what others did, Not put no drugs or alcohol in but I was nuttier than a fruitcake. I talked and acted like I was still banging letting people know I would take them down or wait for them on the side of a building, give them the eye or that look and peopl...

Swig fom Van Ness- killed in robbery incident on Vermont and 59th next to John Muir Jr High. V.I.P. SWIG-A-LOW; I used to run with Swig leader of the Van Ness Gangsters in 1974 and I also ran with MaKeitha leader of the Baby Gladatiors around the same time. I hear Makeitha is doing life for murder.

I am Saved by Jesus but this old girl is far from a saint, but I don't do the things I used to do and my mind set is totally different until one of my buttons is pushed which very few can push it now but there's still maybe 30 people who can make me think I'm a 16 r 17 year old Lady Brim again. lol ...

I doubt very much they are connected. But, I'm not up on what's happening in the set today. The ones I keep in touch with are the older Brims and we talk about today and maybe who died and how we need to better take care of ourselves since God has allowed us to stay alive this far. lol. We talk abou...

i also meant to say that Big Country just died year before last in November of 2012. Another reason why I said if I have the knowledge now what I lacked back then is because back then I wasn't afraid and today I still ain't scared when I should be. Hell I'm 57 and don't too many people bother me cau...

No, I'm not for sure who General Lee is but that was Little Country who got killed in June of 1972. Big Country was one of his older brothers. I guess I would know since me and Lil Country had a son before he was was murdered. Big Country and his brother Baby Country did move to San Diego some years...

Y'all woke another memory up. One late night I was riding the number 6 somewhere ( full of dem pills as usual) and this guy was already on the bus, back then, we were still unable to determine who was from what hood and this black guy pulled the cord at 46th or 47th and Vermont. Now when I got on th...

i got my ass whipped a lot but I didnt give a damn. It made me stronger in my twisted mind and if a man was doing the beating and I could take that ass kicking then it was all good. My homegirl (RIP Dawnice) & I was loaded on dem Red Devils and wine when we was 16 and ran into some girls who hung wi...

If I remember correctly in the early 70's gangs did wear earrings on one side, Brims did and Crips did too. Crips wore several earrings in their ear and their crip hats (Acey Ducey Hats), Now which side wore which, I can't remember. Brims wore jeans starched to the brim, one cup up one down, which s...

you ain't gonna like this but I ain't gonna lie; NOBODY, NO SET HAS THE UPPER HAND. THEY ALL LOSE HANDS DOWN. DEAD MEN, DEAD FATHERS, DEAD SONS AND DAUGHTERS, DEAD UNCLES AND AUNTS, DEAD CHURCH & COMMUNITY LEADERS, MEN AND WOMEN LOCKED DOWN IN A HELL HOLE. MEN AND WOMEN STRUNG OUT ON SOME FORM OF CH...

Young man, Im 57 and by the grace of God I made it out of that life. Hell I was a Lady Brim to the core do u feel me now, but this old girl stopped doing drugs and alcohol, oh yeah lets not forget the glass dick (crack pipe), got my GED, went on to college and got my beauticians lic and a Substance ...

I meet Michael in 1968 when he lived off of 65th & Vermont Ave. (Brims ran that area) across from Brim Headquarters. Michael also had a sister named Rhonda Harris who wa...

I'm giving a shout out to the Lady Brims from back in the day cause there was plenty of them and a shout out to the Harvard Park Ladies of today. They have set a positive tone in todays society. These ladies are very family orientated and will organize any event given. We wasn't like that. We would ...

Lil Country's family moved off Menlo Ave & 58th, but they moved to the Jungles, then moved on Gage & Budlong & lived over there for a few years. Hell that's where I hit Big Country in the eye. lol As soon as I hit him I was ready for a beat down. He sported a black eye for a while. lol. Then the fam...

I talked to Lil Country's mother earlier and she said she found some pictures of Lil Country that she will be sending me. I am excited because I want to post at least one picture of him on Streetgangs. It's been a honor for me to get some of this stuff out after holding it in for these many years. I...

I hope they're some jobs out here for these people coming home. We r seeing a huge release of people coming to 12 step meetings and they sound encourage but they will need guidance in the free world.
