Gotta Love the 80's

Post by RedRoxx44 »

Not really political but depends on how you feel about guns. Lots of attention to stuff nowadays but in 1989 in Tacoma Wa there was a shoot out between some off duty Army Rangers and the Crips gang. The main purpose was to take out a crack house which apparently succeeded with no loss of life.

[ youtube video ]

If the video starts at the beginning go to 16:21 for the story. Lots of Fn words in this Fn video.

My favorite paraphrased line " Hey Sarge, I'm going to the shootout, can I borrow your 590?"

And the Rooftop Koreans----- 1992 LA riots. Must admit quite a lot going on in those days. I was a lot younger and it seemed like not such a big deal; guess because I wasn't affected by it.
