  1. Westside Baby Stones In the early 2000s street gangs continued to grow, especially in the Southern section of Los Santos members of the Black P. Stones Bloods and their many rivals that surround them are still at large when it comes to rivalries. Most recently the (BPS) has been at large with Barrio 18th Street and Rollin '30s and 40 Crips, due to them being so close to each other and being sworn enemies since the beginning of the formation of the gang. All sides have lost many members, a few notable members from Jungles. Many of these deaths were caused by gun violence and were to be from Neighborhood Crips and the 18th Street Gang. Ever since those lives were taken the younger generation of Black P. Stone Bloods members has become more hating and militant. West Davis area is a hotspot for gang activity which also means there are many rivalries between the majority of gangs in the area, Jungle Stone Bloods have always had run-ins with their many enemies from sets like the Neighborhood Crips, 18th Street Gang, East Coast Crips, and School Yard Crips. Black P. Stones Bloods (BPS) are enemies of the Rollin O’s a/k/a all Neighborhood Crips, in particular, the Rollin 30 Harlem Crips and Rollin 40 Crips. They're also hostile towards some gangs under the Mexican Mafia/Sureños card, and all Crips under the (2x and 3x) card. However, the W/S Black P Stones are neutral towards the majority of bloods being close allies with Rollin 20s Neighborhood Bloods and all Brims a/k/a FHN. The alliance with Brims falls deep in the roots of the Black P. Stones gang, this alliance is what members of the gang would call the Brim Stones. The new era of Black P Stone Bloods also have ties with many sets under the Criminal card forming the "Hoover Stones", some being from 52 Hoover to 112. Many members of both sides don't agree with this alliance because most of the the older members still have hatred towards the Hoovers due to them being enemies of the Brims, one of BPS's allies. Racial Tension in Chamberlain Chamberlain Village a neighborhood of run-down apartment buildings that take up less than a square mile between Forum Drive, Strawberry Boulevard, and Chamberlain this neighborhood has long struggled to shake its violent image. Multiple warring gangs occupy the area two being the Black P-Stones a mostly black gang, and 18th Street, a mostly Latino gang. Police say area gang members are responsible for hundreds of shootings and robberies over the years. Though residents agree that the violence is mostly gang-related, some say the hostility has reinforced an undercurrent of racial tension among children and families. But the killing of 3-year-old Kaitlyn Avila on a sunny Sunday afternoon as she arrived home from Burgershot has heightened tension and fear among residents. Police said the girl’s father, 24-year-old Cesar Avila, was the target but was not a gang member. He was shot multiple times in the upper body and remains in critical condition at UCLS Medical Center. Police said the two suspects, both African American, might have mistaken Avila for an 18th Street member. Chamberlain Village used to be called “The Jungle” for its tropical trees and foliage, like the palms, banana trees, and begonias that thrived among tropical-style postwar apartment buildings. The Los Santos City Council changed the name 16 years ago after residents complained that it reinforced the neighborhood’s image as a wild and menacing place. They renamed it Chamberlain Village, hoping to reflect the affluent and peaceful -- mostly black -- Chamberlain Hills neighborhood nearby. Heading back down, Walker said Chamberlain Village began to change in the late 1960s and ‘70s. The white flight began after the 1965 Jamestown riots. Drug dealers set up shop in an alley between apartment buildings where they sold PCP. They called it “Sherm Alley.” Soon the drug trade changed to crack cocaine, he said, and everything went downhill. The Black P-Stone gang ruled the narcotics scene in the area. High-rent apartment buildings turned into subsidized, low-income housing. Latino families, mostly immigrants, moved in. “The regular working ones were cool,” he said. “But then the 18th Street [gang] moved in and basically wanted to take over the drug trade.” Walker drove along Pinafore Street, past Hillcrest Elementary School. Teenagers stared him down. No one waved. Walker said sometimes the glares remind him of a scene out of the movie “Training Day,” which was filmed in Chamberlain Village. A television news crew stood near a memorial of pink carnations, Jesus candles, and rag dolls on the grass -- the spot where Kaitlyn was killed. The pink and yellow bedroom Kaitlyn shared with her 6-year-old sister, Kassey, overlooks the memorial. Kassey was in the car with her father and sister when the shooting occurred. On a recent morning, the family looked at old photos of Kaitlyn spread across a coffee table. Although Kaitlyn’s family has received an outpouring of support and prayers from black and Latino families in the neighborhood, some residents say the gang war has fueled racism in this neighborhood, where both races are struggling to understand each other. They say children sometimes repeat racial slurs they hear from gang members or on the street. Karen Lira, 15, also lives in the neighborhood. She said some racial taunts have made her cry. “There’s a lot of racism,” she said. “African Americans don’t like Hispanic people.” “Like the rest of L.S., it’s changing with more Latinos,” said Najee Ali, a black community activist who prayed with Kaitlyn’s family this week. “The neighborhood has racial tension. It’s increasing. Each ethnic group doesn’t understand each other’s culture.”
