I do agree about that. I can safely leave a bar when they enter; my chances aren’t as good trying to leave Compton or the Green in Chitown safely after making a wrong turn. Although, I know with some bike gangs that if I was the wrong color, I might not be able to leave that same bar intact. In that aspect as well, they are similar to urban gangs.
Compton isn't nearly the battlefield it was 25 years ago (murders are a quarter what they were in 1989) and Cabrini Green has been demolished and is being rebuilt as a yuppie neighborhood.
