San Jose Police Arrest "Los Mocosos," or "Snot-Nosed Kids"
NBC Bay Area ^ | Thursday, Aug 28, 2014 | Damian Trujillo

The streets of San Jose should be a little safer.

That's because police officers have taken down a total of 13 members of two violent gangs this summer that they say have been attacking innocent people. Police have arrested a group of juveniles they've dubbed "Los Mocosos," translated from Spanish slang into "snot-nosed kids "or "brats." Police said the youth were all between the ages of 11 and 17.

Police said the youth would flirt with women in downtown to try to distract them, while a female member of the crew would walk up to victims, punch them and rob them.

"They would just come from behind and (deal) vicious, vicious blows," Sgt. Brian Spears told NBC Bay Area Thursday morning. Once the victim was on the ground, Spears said one suspect would "continue the blows," while the others were "rummage through their pockets."

Officers on their regular beat arrested nine of the crew members in May.

But the violence didn't stop. The midnight shift kept keeping a closer eye on things. That's when they found four men and boys who called themselves the "Squad," walk up to unsuspecting victims and "cold-cock" them if they were walking downtown.

The suspects would take off with watches, purses and other items. Police were able to arrest those four in June.

More like “booger-boys” .. Mocosos.

Better than “Mecosos” I guess.

They should have shot them where they stood.

in my family, mocoso never referred to a bratty kid... it always referred to the literal snot-nosed kid... a kid with parents who did not take their position seriously enough to make sure their child did not have mucous dripping from his nose... usually a dirty child...

More “wealth” from the poisonous BLACK American Culture..
That soils, degrades, kills, or pulls down everything it
“TOUCHES”.. with malicious intent..

A nasty rotting stinking culture of malcontents..
Not everyone effected BUT MOSTLY everyone.. 90%+ plus..
That infects and effects all of any culture(slimed by it).. i.e. poisonous..

Why are you blaming your fellow Americans for the malfeasance of illegal aliens?

Why would ANYONE be out on the streets alone at night, especially in San Jose?
When I HAVE to be out at night for an "event"--it's TAXI TIME for me. THAT is my only use for a cel phone--emergency calls.

I did feel safe and WAS safe with my husband. He had...a look.

I think that it is a sign of good taste and respect to learn how to say “Snot-nosed brats” in the language of every country you visit. I can’t think of any situation where you wouldn’t have to say “Snot-nosed brats” in France.

“Pardon me, but that snail you think you’re eating is actually a dripping from my snot-nosed brat.”

Ah! because “THEY”(mostly) adamantly refuse to blame THEMSELVES for their OWN malicious behavior(S)..

AND what I mean by “THEY” is BLACK AMERICANS and many white sycophants... (their bitches)..

It’s enough to make an intelligent black person a racist against his own race..
(IF YOU CAN FIND ONE)...

Arrest them and throw them in jail or deport their family.
