A bloody conflict between Hispanic and black gangs is spreading across Los Angeles. Hundreds are dying as whole districts face the threat of ethnic cleansing. Paul Harris reports from the epicentre of America's new urban warfare Sunday March 18, 2007 The Observer Father Greg Boyle keeps a grim count of the young gang members he has buried. Number 151 was Jonathan Hurtado, 18 - fresh out of jail.

"..Last year there were 269 gang-related killings in LA. Gang-related crime leaped 15.7 per cent last year, as most other types of crime fell. Hate crimes against black people have surged. With a rapidly growing Hispanic population, LA's gang culture is shifting. It means that being black in the wrong neighbourhood can get you killed.."
Hispanic Gangs aren't afraid of Sharpton or other race hustlers and not slightly influenced by PC either. LA is the shape of the brave new world.
Obviously the fact that we do not secure our borders has nothing to do with the rise of brown and black racial warfare (sarcasm off).
Julie-Annie thinks giving them extortion payments would help...
Good!
Sounds like a quagmire to me. I suggest an immediate withdrawal from Los Angeles to,,,say,,,,Bismark ND.
The biggest problem I see with this is that both sides cant lose. As long as they stick to gangs killing gangs I wish them luck.
Conservative Americans keep your guns handy, Liberals enjoy the whirlwind you helped sow.
I hardly think it's a Sudan style "ethnic cleansing" the Guardian is making it sound like. It reads as if hundreds are dying daily in a ethnic cleansing war.
Willikers! Why, that's discrimination. I bet the Government will come in sue. That'll show 'em.
True, but it's only a matter of time before people get caught in the crossfire.
Then the liberals will have to pass a new gun law in California again, ordering these criminals to register their illegal guns. - wait, they already passed that law...
I guess they are going to have to recind the "no spanking" law, so that their parents can deal more sternly with these kids.
Kinda like arab killin arab,,,,Thankee Santa!!!
Better yet, send in Sharton. He can make them all go on his show and apologize, have therm fired from their drug pushing corners.
Maybe the UN could send in some peace keepers! That would solve the problems.

Talk about diminishing the definition of a term.
The peace and tranquility of the leftist state always impresses me. Now if we could get a few Islamofascists in there lopping off heads, it would place a big exclamation point on utopia.
And as long as bureaucrats get their annual 10% raise and one can ride subsidized mass transit with winos and gang bangers for a dollar, everything should be fine.
Seems like this is the “Gangs of New York” redux, 150 years later.
The victims are almost never gangbangers. This isn’t a typical gang war. The victims seem to be almost entirely black civilians(like that 14 year old girl, or the black father trying to protect his daughters from a gang thug). It’s a race war pure and simple.
