The Q & A about tears wasn't generally correct. In most gangs they work one of two ways: 1 -- A certain number of "empty" tears are tattooded -- this represents the number of people you are supposed to kill to get full standing in the gang. Each murder is recorded by filling in a teardrop. 2; -- they represent the number of people killed or that the wearer has killed at least once (usually filled in).

The use of them as counting dead homies may be in some areas, but here in L.A. they would have hundreds of tears if that were the case.
