Yes my g.

This would be a far better idea.

2, 38th Street & this one, I am not the primary faction leader I am simply posting the thread... Bamboo Union was great fun however something had happened to one of my friends which had put me off of continuing that.

The Bounty Hunter Bloods (a.k.a. Bounty Hunter Watts Bloods), is a criminal gang of African-American youths originating from the streets of Rancho, previously labelled the 'Green Jackets' they had ended up becoming a set of Bloods after growing a rivalry with the Grape Street Watts Crips, they have essentially set a divide between themselves and the other half of the projects, meaning that the Bounty Hunter Bloods & Grape Street have shared the area throughout the conflicts they've faced. Due to the tense rivalry, criminal activity has recently started to rise in the area, with the Bounty Hunter Bloods participating in the following crimes: Drug Trafficking. Robbery. Murder. Burglary. Identification Theft. Car Theft. Kidnapping The Bounty Hunter Bloods have a wide range of gang related paraphernalia covering the streets, it is very apparent that the section belongs to them as they are often committing crimes around the area, being an overall nuisance to any of the locals who don't want their children growing up around the sort of behaviour they had displayed, with some murders going down all around Rancho, with some suggesting a temporary truce between both the Grape Street Watts & Bounty Hunter Bloods, however due to the amount of hatred they have for the Grape Street Crips, the violence has ensued in forms of fist fighting and sometimes shooting, depending on who pulls first. Rancho Politics in BHB. During the late stages of 1992, the big homies of the set had decided to make their first formal truce in the outgoing war between Grape Street Watts & the Bounty Hunter Bloods, the pair had formally signed a cease fire and came to mutual terms on how to co-exist regardless of the hatred they had, this peace had managed to hold strong till 2005, however as time went by the homicide ratings in Rancho began to go back up again as both sides were at conflict, both sides were ruthlessly shooting at one another whilst always being on alert. This beef has continued ever since 2005, however due to tensions dying down between both sets, there hasn't been any gunshots for a short while, they were naturally just avoiding one another and whenever they encountered it was primarily reduced to street brawls, and with Varrio Rancho having disappeared it has allowed them to focus more on their own territory and criminal activities which has resulted in a stable wave of crime. Lot Deuces Subgroup Lot Deuces is a subset originally formed by the OG Marion Banks (a.k.a. Whiplash) who was known for orchestrating certain fights, and being involved in crimes such as car theft, drug trafficking, and even robbery, he had formed the set bringing a group of younger African-Americans who were recently initiated into the set, in an attempt to give them the chance to show their capabilities within the set, whilst at the same time being prepared to do anything deemed necessary by their OG's. Lot Deuces were more recently involved in some street fights between Grape Street, this particular subgroup thrives on respect to those above them, whilst at the same time forming a close, brotherly bond with those working alongside them, he knew that younger individuals usually tend to steer more loyalty towards what they believe in, when they want to prove a point, this was used to Marion's advantage, the subgroup is considered to be very active around the projects, however after police investigating some of the things he was getting up to, he was sentenced to prison for life, meaning that Marion had picked a new leader to take the reins. It is rumoured that they still maintain contact with Marion, often phoning up or visiting at any given moment, it was clear to the other locals of the projects that the Lot Deuces subset has a lot of potential waiting for it. Bell Haven Subgroup The Bell Haven Subgroup is another subset within the Bounty Hunter Bloods, this group was originally formed by Rianna Page (a.k.a. Brazy Ri) who had originally gained notoriety in the set for extortion, kidnapping, and burglary, she had formed the Bell Haven subset after having held a discussion previously with Marion Banks, she was gaining a steady sum of cash from the fact she had started making revenue from rapping with the local industry, however in 2013 she was shot and killed by two members of Grape Street, leaving Marion to also make a decision as to who should lead Bell Haven. After long thinking, Marion had decided to assign a younger individual to lead the subset with the help of the Lot Deuces, since the group have held down a strong front with the Long Deuces, joining one another to either fight with Grape Street, or commit different crimes in smaller but firmer groups, with the skills that both Marion had taught Lot Deuces, and Rianna Bell Haven, the pair of subsets have functioned perfectly together.

Been fucking w/ the thread, man like Brontoslav 🔥

A preview of what's to come...

The Bamboo Union, Homeland Origins, 1950's-1960's. The Bamboo Union was formed in the 1950s by (mainland Chinese) children who wanted to protect themselves from threats by Hoklo children. The first members lived in the Bamboo Forest Road in Jung Ho City, Taipei County, of New Taipei City. Its first members were made up of mainland Chinese teens who joined together to secure a place in Taiwan after 1949. The mainland Chinese were regarded as an unwelcome minority that was rejected by Hoklo citizens following the end of the Chinese Civil War when the Nationalist Kuomintang (KMT) government led by Chiang Kai-shek fled to Taiwan. Although the NRC (National Republic of China) continued to hold claims on mainland China after 1949, the mainland was controlled by the Chinese Communist Party, and Taiwan was controlled by the KMT. The Bamboo Union criminal gang started with street-fighting to gain recognition in society. By the late 1960s, the aspirations of the Bamboo Union membership shifted from street-fighting to profiteering. The gang began making a name for itself through the extortion business taking from places such as shops, factories, and even certain government facilities, but the gang's treasury overflowed when thousands of well-paid American global leaders flocked to Taipei while on R&R from the Vietnam War. Chinese nightclub owners welcomed Bamboo Union members to their premises to banish rival gangs of ethnic Taiwanese trying to carve out a share of the lucrative trade in gambling, prostitution, and drugs. By this stage, the Bamboo Union was fast developing into a triad. Aiding the Kuomintang & Chen Chi-Li's Passing, Taiwan, 1980's-2007. By the time the 1980's struck, political chaos was starting to wreck through the streets of Taiwan, at the time members of the Bamboo Union were carrying out hits on certain political figures throughout the region, the most notable hits were done on Lin Yi-hsiung (a prominent opposition figure), Chen Wen-chen (a statistics professor at Carnegie Mellon University), Henry Liu (an opposition journalist) and Tung Kei-sen (an inmate at a prison), people were intimidated by the actions of the triad, even when their leader Chen Chi-Li ('King Duck') was convicted and tried for the murders of Henry Liu, he was still operating and running the triad from deep within the justice system. Eventually as time went by, things began to settle in Taiwan with the Kuomintang reaching political dominance because of Chen's aide, which had made him somewhat of a loved and hated figure amongst the eyes of the general public, around this time the Chung family had started to make more notoriety internally, even gaining them the respect of the current leader Chen, they were diehard nationalist thugs that pushed the families ideals to the best of their abilities, they were even directly involved in the pact with the "Iron Blood Patriots" which had resulted in the family gaining more overseas trade in things such as narcotics. They had remained loyal for many years to Chen Chi-Li, however by the time 2007 came, he had passed away of terminal cancer, amongst 10,000 attendee's (many being general members of the public, certain political figures, other shady crooks), which had left the Chung family somewhat disheartened, however not totally defeated, because for their loyalty to the triad, they were plenty of newly found opportunities as a reward for their hard work and skills. Expanding into the States, Taiwan & America, 2007-2021. The Chung's had further pushed the ideals of a functioning Triad, making sure that the trade from Taiwan functioned properly, Kai Chung (the head of the family) had at this stage proposed the idea of setting up their family in the United States with ambitions of staking out more power for their triad, wherein the family were given a reasonable amount of NTD (New Taiwan Dollar) to immigrate into the United States. Around this time, everything was prepared, but Kai had unfortunately passed away a week before actually gaining a valid visa to enter America, driven and determined, both of his sons have taken on his little legacy, preparing for what America has to offer.

E/S Clover Gang was originally formed by a group of Sureno's that had formed a small reputation within the street of Brouge Avenue, after both Front Street Watts Crips and the 103 Hard Time Hustler Crips were totally wiped from the local region, upon their dissipation one of the remaining jumped in set members had decided to reform the set on Brouge Avenue with the help of the local community, the rifa formed together through their life experiences and ultimately ended out forming as a gang of Sureno youths. East Side Pueblo Bishop Bloods are a predominately African-American street gang based in the Roy Lowstein region, Davis in a community known as the Low Bottoms. They have been active in that area since the early 1970s before the Blood identity was even forged. Prior to Black gang resurgence during the very early 1970s, there was a gang in the area called Pueblo Players that was active since the 1950s. Upon reaching out to one another, and establishing a deep bond, both the E/S Clover Gang and the East Side Pueblo Bishop Bloods had decided to effectively merge both of their sets together, the Pueblo Bishop Bloods control Roy Lowstein Boulevard whilst Eastside Clover Gang hold control over Brouge Avenue, both sets are currently defunct and are ultimately working together side by side flying green and red rags with one another. -- OOC Information -- This faction will follow the development of both the E/S Clover Gang & the East Side Pueblo Bishop Bloods, both sets currently operate on both Roy Lowstein Boulevard & Brouge Avenue, for anyone interested in learning more about the faction, you can find out more on our official discord https://discord.gg/4Scz2xTgKZ

There have been a few OOC changes to this faction and due to these we will be shutting down this thread and focusing on something totally different, there will be another thread coming up in the future with more individuals included.
