Attack On Family In Compton Latest Incident In Wave of Anti-Black Violence
A Latino gang is intimidating blacks into leaving the city that was once an African American enclave. It's part of a violent trend seen in other parts of the L.A. area.
The steeple of the Greater Holy Faith Baptist Church on 155th Street in Compton, a reminder of a time not long ago when African Americans predominated.
By Sam Quinones, Richard Winton and Joe Mozingo January 25, 2013 The trouble began soon after they arrived.
The black familya mother, three teenage children and a 10-year-old boymoved into a little yellow home in Compton over Christmas vacation.
When a friend came to visit, four men in a black SUV pulled up and called him a "nigger," saying black people were barred from the neighborhood, according to Los Angeles County sheriff's deputies. They jumped out, drew a gun on him and beat him with metal pipes.
It was just the beginning of what detectives said was a campaign by a Latino street gang to force an African American family to leave.
The attacks on the family are the latest in a series of violent incidents in which Latino gangs targeted blacks in parts of greater Los Angeles over the last decade.
Compton, with a population of about 97,000, was predominantly black for many years. It is now 65% Latino and 33% black, according to the 2010 U.S. census. But it's not only historically black areas that have been targeted.
(snip) Leaders of the Azusa 13 gang were sentenced to lengthy prison terms earlier this month for leading a policy of attacking African American residents and expelling them from the town.

cry me a river.
This sort of thing has been going on in L.A. for at least a decade. Needless to say it gets zero national media attention.
Wow. The Democrat voters are turning against one another. That’s what happens when you fill a country with different groups, and instead of binding them with a common set of core principles, you simply agree to serve the interests of each bloc, whatever they may be. When the Lord of the Flies has gone back to his hut, the blow flies start killing the houseflies.
Oooold story, but bring a black Prez, and, PRESTO...! The story is completely dusted-off and rejuvenated.
Over a DECADE old, maybe..?
Their birthrates are high and we know how most of them vote, so the libs can’t afford to cover this too thoroughly, is my guess.
I wonder if the content of their character has kept either Latinos or Blacks from being American. Let them kill each other.
Why can’t they all just sing Kumbaya, and fall in love like in West Side Story?
Yup. A dangerously combustible mix of democrats that must not be mentioned because it would cost the democrats dearly if something were to ignite it.
In the nearest city near me they have a steady stream of police keeping adjoining neighborhoods apart.
A mother with four kids and no father. A major part of the problem overall.
This should not be happening, but where was the Times back in the sixties when white kids were getting the crap beat out them by the Blacks that were moving in on the prowl, hell bent to make Whitey pay. Oh yes I watched the fires in Watts from my roof and was glad as hell when we moved out of Lynwood.
And of course, not all Blacks behaved that way, many that moved in kept the homes up better than the Whites that moved out. My point is that this is not new it’s just the colors that have changed, it was wrong then and it’s wrong now. But there are always animals in the world, always a segment that refuses to evolve.
Nothing new here. Same thing has been happening in parts of Long Beach for decades.
White Hispanics, no doubt.
Multi-ethnic, peaceful neighbourhood where I hang my sombrero. Still, segregation happens naturally in schools, and in most cities of the country, why, the world. Your wishful thinking, Kumbaya, noble intentions such as we all have including as someone noticed today those mythical Nazis (had, in past tense), and your Congressparasite, whom you elect over and over until he croaks, none of that will fix it. Before you flame me, I too have and always have had noble intentions!
And the local liberals are just now writing about it. The inner turmoil they must go through when they have no choice but to make one of their protected color groups look bad.
OH NO! That would be racism!
We can’t have that!! It’s time to move on the offensive again and take whitey out this time.
Wait, what? Latinos you say.
Oh, that different.
Nevermind. It’s not in line with “The Agenda”
#12, you are spot on. The blacks are now being subjected to what they subjected the whites to years ago. Pay back is a bit_h, even if from a third party. But have no fear, our racist attorney general will step in to protect “his” people
...and in San Pedro.
