CHICAGO'S WHITE GANGS
Violence Growing in White Gangs
They're Overlooked, But Dangerous
White street gangs are becoming more violent because of an increased drug trade in their neighborhoods.
They’ve been starting to step up into violence.
Chicago's white street gang historically have been viewed as less violent than black or Hispanic gangs, and they are largely ignored when discussing urban crime area.
The presumption is wrong if you say white gangs are not violent.
There are many White gangs, the Ambrose, the Ashland Vikings, the C-Notes, the Freaks, the Gaylords, the Kenmore Boys, and Insane Popes, the Uptown Rebels, and the largest white gang, the Simon City Royals.
The gangs are concentrated on the Northwest and the white Southwest sides of the city, specializing in drug dealing, auto thefts and burglaries.
There are dozens of off-shots and smaller white gangs, including the Ridgeway Lords, and the Almighty Popes. The Almighty Popes are a faction of the Insane Popes, the city’s third largest white gang.
There are no accurate membership numbers for the white gangs. A gang like the Ridgeway Lords could number 50 or less. The Almighty Popes could number 200.

Re: CHICAGO'S WHITE GANGS
Well I grilled some Gaylords to get at it. You don't normally see a Gaylord banging past 25 (they are kicking out members in their forties still caught up in it in anything other than a positive retired association) and they try to do it all oldskool, with honor and without guns as much as possible. Sure they are a streetgang but they aren't all about money and drugs like the gangs they are surrounded by. Their is a strong emphasis on personal honor and the neighborhood/brotherhood. In fact, a lot of Gaylords are down on drugs though too many do them, unfortunately, but not comparatively in regards to other gangs. Sometimes you have a kernel of an exception and this appears to be one of those cases.

Re: CHICAGO'S WHITE GANGS
SCR's are the biggest white gang in Chicago. They and CNotes are the only two white majority mobs that get any real respect from black and Latino nations.
Re: CHICAGO'S WHITE GANGS
