I watched that last night. That was rather eye opening when the long established gangs are talking about the shit you do not do and those rules being violated left and right.
Not only that, but its clear that its so widespread that even they have lost control. With a lot of the gangs, while violent and pushing drugs, usually had an understanding of things that are taboo even for them. And if you do it you're own homies will take you out for it. Even that seems to be gone at this point.
I mean I figured there were rules like "Don't fuck around on Melrose, Beverly Hills, or the Unis because that'll bring too much heat. But turf wars between the cartels and black gangs are good to go" But you're right, even those unwritten rules seem to be gone.
This feels like a slow motion 92 Riots, or Demolition Man if you prefer, situation.

Right? Turns out there is a certain code among criminals.

I always thought you also don't go after your rival gang members' actual family either.
