In the early 1990s, KAM, or "Krazy Ass Mexicans," did the unheard-of in El Burro Heights. "They started out as a simple tagging crew that nobody thought anything about," Mr. Torres said, slowing the S.U.V. down a notch. "But right where we are now, two old established gangs, Fudge Lane Travieosos and Vicky's Town, tried to pressure the crew to join their gangs. But the nondescript group fought back. Amazingly, KAM eventually pushed out both steadfast gangs, taking over the whole neighborhood-~-something El Burro Heights had never experienced before." Today, they are one of the most aggressive gangs on the Eastside of Los Santos. The violence never really died down. KAM has had to continually defend its turf from older gangs like Big Hazard, State Street and Gage Maravilla, but the Krazy Ass Mexicans held their ground. "They're surrounded by enemies, but they maintain their territory. And they have a huge territory. The big guys didn't anticipate they'd fight back. But that's what they did. They were--and still are--well-structured and smart," said Mr. Torres, sitting back behind the wheel.
