    One time we got pretty drunk at a bar and when we called an Uber to go my friend told them to just leave and he’ll pay them for the trouble, so the night went one we met a bunch of random people and went from bar to bar with a whole group of strangers until finally some legit veteran mexican gangster drove us home but not before we bought him a few bottles of fancy liquor at a safeway. The next day we woke up like did that really happen and are we on some hit list now because he said he was going to get in touch later

      I grew up in the hood and have a lot of gangster and ex-gangster friends. There are plenty of them that will roll you just for fun, but there are also plenty of them who will look out for you, and help you out of a tough spot as long as you don’t disrespect or challenge them. Some of them are genuinely good people who have made poor choices in their lives due to unfortunate circumstances.
