Maybe Gran Torino hyped the honda sterotype.

Lets all get M1 Garands and a 1911 to protect ourselves from Gang members like Grand Torino =]

Placed my order for my M1 Garand last week should be here in 2 months or so! hehe

Damn this really sucks. Everyone's a suspect until they catch those bastards. Just try not to make any eye contacts, yes even with fellow Lexus drivers. You never know, and you cant never be more careful. I know i'm not going to hang out around the 626 for a long while.

did everyone suddenly come down with the "chicken little" syndrome?

now, i'm sorry to hear about people getting harassed by the cops because of the shooting, and i think it's unfair to those totally unrelated to what happened. but just because the apple fell from the tree doesn't mean that the sky is falling. i mean, let's exercise some common sense, here.

now i understand a major cause for concern if there was beef between two rival gangs and that people have been getting gunned down left and right, but so far this has proven to be an isolated incident. no need to blow things out of proportion by suggesting that this stuff goes down on a daily/nightly basis.

Sad to hear about these things going on since I live so close in Alhambra. I remember hearing a bunch of police and ambulance sirens last night so that might have been it. Be safe out there everyone.

Yep we sure do... And I still have my civic, so i must be an OG since i own a civic and a 2ndGenGS, LOL

P.S. When my homie bought his 2ndGen on some BS chrome, it was tinted so dark that we thought O-Dog was in there...

+1 pulled over in wesco for this *******t... where did this happen exactly? cop said it was related to the shooting... did they get a tip that it was a black GS or what?!!! gang unit gave me such a hard time cause i wouldn't let them take photos if my tattoos. so they tore apart my car for 45 minutes while i sat in the wet sidewalk. didn't even want to eat afterwards. this is bull****.... feels like high school all over again.

I think you guys are being paranoid. 5-6 years ago thing was much worse in the SGV....There's other worst place in LAC like the jungle, south central LA and boyle hts. SGV isn't all that bad as you think, just some occasion thing like this happen.

The cops will harass you whenever they want. I got pulled over so many time before. I'd a fixed Integra back then.

Even at the club I got pulled out along with my date because I was "Asian", supposedly the night before someone got stabbed so that night the G-unit was pulling out any "suspicious looking" Asian and profiling them even if you didn't do anything wrong. I was put on the list and taken picture since I had tattoos, they let me back in but it was stupid. You can't even tell them no or else they lock you up. No rights what so ever ....Now I'm on their record. I felt like a criminal and my date was so worry it was just stupid...

Ohh well that's the price to live in LA

Haha I have a fixed up integra and the IS...mmmm risky. Haha cops leave me alone though-- a few years ago they gave my car more attention, but nowadays they don't seem to care.
