Busters Get Shot is a primarily Mexican-American tagging crew founded in the Mirror Park area of the unincorporated city of Los Santos. This tagging crew was established in the early 2000s by childhood friends in Davis High School who initially banded together as a means of self-protection from the rival groups of youth from nearby neighborhoods as well as from those within the Mirror Park Housing projects. This tagging crew is often seen around the area of Mirror Park, merely as a bunch of Hispanic teenagers who like to cause trouble. The aforementioned group are often seen committing petty crimes around the area, including vandalism, disorderly gatherings, assault and more. The crew also dabble in amounts of drug dealing, as an attempt to increase their riches as means of increasing their exposure. A few members of the tagging crew have been detained and sometimes even arrested on a few occasions, leading to time being served in Juvenile detention centers. However, after this period was served, they were later back out on the streets of Mirror Park and swiftly got back to their old habits; vandalizing, drug-dealing, amongst an array of other crimes.

This topic is about a group of taggers in the South Vinewood area.

CSM is a hustling & tagging group made up of school kids who live in the Cougar Avenue Apartment Complex, they're primarily African-American but multi-racial due to their surroundings in Del Perro & Morningwood. Growing up around Morningwood, the youth in the area are heavily influenced from defunct Gangster Crip sets that originated in the area. Many members of CSM have family that were part of defunct Gangster Crip sets based in Morningwood, all though they don't claim any affiliation to these sets they're influenced by them and are heard using their lingo in conversation. Can't Stop Mobbin originated as a small group of friends who would tag up walls after school, they would blast 'CSM' on all the walls in the local area and post it on social media under an account called Can't Stop Mobbin to showcase their strike ups. As the group grew slightly larger through school years and the members grew older, it moved past just being a small tagging clique and their main focus became making money. While they're still very much a tagging crew at heart, their main focus is on making money any way they can. It started off in petty crime and has grown into getting money by any means necessary, being very much influenced by the environment around them. Morningwood has been a stronghold for multiple Gangster Crip sets in the past, the largest and most infamous being the N/S Playboy Gangster Crips & Mansfield Gangster Crips. There has been numerous other Gangster Crip sets based in and around Morningwood such as the Blastin Fools Gangster Crips, By Yourself Gangster Crips, & Marvin Gangster Crips. The west side of Los Santos in general has always had heavy crip presence in the past, through sets such as the Venice Shoreline Crips, Harbor City Crips, Rollin 20's, Rolling 80's WCC, School Yard Crip, West Boulevard Crip, Dodge City Crip, W/S Geer Gang Crips, and the Insane Crip Gang. While CSM don't claim anything other then Can't Stop Mobbin, the name of their small group. They're known around the area through actively striking up alleyways and local businesses, their tags can be seen blasted up on walls all over the Morningwood & Del Perro area, even going as far down as Vespucci. Some of the tags around the area are; " CANT STOP MOBBIN, CAN'T STAND MARKS & COUGAR STREET MILITARY." all being based around their name 'CSM'. Their social media presence is where they're most known, posting their hit ups on Facebrowser and using #CSM to claim them, in the past this has caused tension between them and others in the area all though nothing serious came of it. They originally formed as a way to protect themselves against the heavy blood influence in their area that would carry over to school. Many individuals within CSM have parents that used to be apart of one of the many defunct Gangster Crip sets in Morningwood, and were bullied because of it in school. Even though they don't bang and don't claim anything other then their small group, they've been seen fighting and arguing online with the youth of their red-ragging neighbors when provoked. The individuals in CSM were always seen committing small petty crimes such as shoplifting from a young age, but have since developed into a small hustling & tagging group that reside in the Cougar Ave Apartment Complex. Known for riding the scamming wave to the max, CSM make swiping one of their main identities, mainly seen on Facebrowser showcasing ID's and promoting their methods through LSChat. They're seen posting blank cards, and bags of cash of social media often. While they also have ventured into small time drug dealing, they tend to keep it private and out of the eyes of their neighbors in fear of getting pressed up on by neighboring gangs. Due to being surrounded by red-ragging sets, they're forced to move smart while still making a name for themselves. CSM are known to get loud online while staying out of the eyes of their neighbors in-person, posting all their strike ups on Facebrowser to provoke a reaction.

JST previously dubbed Making Enemies Rank (MER) originates as a tagging crew out of Roy Lowenstein and Jamestown St. The crew was quickly integrated into the growing Traviesos, with many members earning their put ons and the crew becoming a clique. After gaining notoriety as an established clique the members adopted the name JST as means to represent Jamestown Steet & to solidify turf growth. Members of JST are known for their red ragging, which serves as a way of being identified as “crip killers” through the adoption of blood aesthetics. The clique is still well known for its tagging.

A total of 8,651 people have been shot in Los Santos year-to-date, 865 of which have been done in the Northwestern area, and the city is averaging about 27 shooting victims per week, Cline said. Last week, 162 people were shot in the city per week. The city has had 421 homicides year-to-date, compared to 250 homicides during the same period in 2021. "The two challenging areas are homicides and aggravated assaults, as has been this entire year," Cline said. Aggravated assaults in the city increased by 9.5%, and the largest increases have been in the Morningwood and Bay City area. Cline added that there is "significant involvement" of Caucasian people in aggravated assaults, both as victims and as offenders. Homicide arrests have increased by 51% this year compared to the same period last year, and weapons arrests have increased by 83%, Cline said.

Mexicans Causing Panic (MCP) is a primarily Mexican-American tagging crew based in East Los Santos with roots tying it back to the tagging craze of the 1990's that encompassed several American cities with several youth of all racial, economic and social background flocking to these "tagging crews" for individual reasons whether it be just a group of friends or a pursuing a sense of recognition. According to the United States Department of Justice, there is hundred of crews spanned across the county with several thousand members within them. Tagging culture encompasses getting the respective crews name out there whether it be for recognition or respect taggers will strike anything visible and where it will remain for a long time. The large audience of youth has led to large organized events where crews will battle each other for a certain period of time where they have to tag up or "strike" up as much property as possible and at the end of that period the losing crew will have to put their spray cans down and officially disband. These "battles" are projected to cause millions worth of property damage. Mischief and vandalism is common among the tagging culture but there have been instances where it has escalated to robbery, assault and even murder.

This thread follows the story and development of BKA, a budding tag banging crew in Rancho, and the teenagers within it.
