Vespucci Beach is a popular seaside area. There are plenty of shops, restaurants and outdoor activities. Despite being the most popular beach in the country, it is also the most dangerous. The beach has the highest rates of theft, robbery, and violent crime like assault, homicide and sexual violence. The area is full of street gangs, the main cause of crime. One of the biggest street gangs in the area is the Asian Boyz Crips. The band was formed in the early 90's. The main reason that local Asian refugees banded together was to protect their community from atrocities, Latino and African-American gangs, and from racial attacks. The gangs were largely filled by Cambodian immigrants, but also included some from Vietnam and the Philippines. The gang is now well known, with several illegal activities to its name, such as car theft, drug trafficking, extortion, burglary and murder. The ABZ gang is a section of the big Crips gang.They are allies of several Crips sets, such as Sons of Samoa Crips, Insane Crips,Rollin 20's Crips. Another big ally is the Vietnamese Boyz gang. The gang also has other names, like Asian Crips, Asian Boys, 1226 or just ABZ. Their enemies are the East Side Longos and the Tiny Rascal Gang, but their biggest enemy is the Wah Ching Gang, with over ten murders in the conflict between the two gangs. Present day Dennis Vong spent his days at the home of one of his friends after the OGs were shut down by law enforcement a few weeks ago. When he finally ventured out onto the streets, he immediately contacted his homies to discuss what to do next. The gang picked up where the OGs left off and started reaching out to their old contacts to raise money.

Beachside Terror was originally created as a group of friends operating as a tagging crew in the Vespucci area. Known for their unique style of graffiti and bold choice of artwork that could be seen all over the lower Vespucci—primarily Melanoma Street—they quickly gained a reputation as a small yet dangerous group. However, their gradual rise to criminal fame was not solely based on their passionate hobby of graffiti; the crew slowly formed a fierce reputation through their direct involvement in various illicit activities, namely a list of bloody turf wars and acts of drug smuggling for powerful crime organisations like the Mexican Mafia. The raw origins of the crew can be traced back to an older generation led by Hopout Cuevas and Joker Vargas. Under this duo's leadership, the crew established a rapport for their unapologetic and fearless approach to graffiti culture. With the newfound protection and endorsement from the notorious Mexican Mafia, the crew rebranded themselves as Varrio Terrorside 13 and aligned themselves with the powerful criminal organization, which controls the grand majority of Mexican-American street gangs wreaking havoc on the Los Santos streets. This co-sign allowed the newly-developed gang a significant level of power and awe on the streets and they quickly established themselves as one of the most feared and respected gangs in the area. However, their rise to power was not met without challenges; the gang found themselves entwined in a bloody feud with Public Enemy No. 1, a predominantly white skinhead gang also known as PEN1. The conflict between the two gangs was brutal and saw the death or long-term incarceration of members on both sides. With the brunt of Varrio Terrorside 13's leadership fallen victim to the consequences of this barbarous battle, the gang inevitably fell into a crippling period of inactivity. After a handful of years spent in quiet dormancy, rumors began to plague the streets of Vespucci, hinting at the resurgence of a new generation of Beachside Terror. Slowly but surely, many tags that mimicking the once-famed crew's distinctive style started littering the buildings on and around Melanoma Street, sparking curiosity and speculation among the residents of the area, as well as a fear of repeated events. The word on the streets suggested that a new generation of young delinquents had taken up the mantle of Beachside Terror and were determined to reclaim the crew's place as one of the most feared groups in the area. The new crew was said to be led by Nitro Contreras and Chino Aranda. To ensure a swift and stable reign, one of their key strategies was to restore the old connections that the crew once had with the Mexican Mafia. With this renewed connection, the crew was able to regain its chokehold on the lower Vespucci area. Following their rebirth, the crew realised that their old name carried too much baggage and memories of a bittersweet past. A new generation meant new feats to accomplish. They would therefore come to be known as Terror Town 13. Thread credits go out to @XIK, @Plottin & @occ Terror Town 13 is a fictional Sureño gang that originated from a tagging crew called Beachside Terror. The transition from a tagging crew to a full-fledged gang occurred after two months of development. Our aim is to accurately portray a modern Sureño gang in the west side of Los Santos and provide an enjoyable experience to whoever roleplays with our faction.

Dogtown Skinheads, or Dog Town Skins, is a white supremacist skinhead gang based in the Dogtown area of Vespucci Beach in Los Santos, San Andreas. The early formation of the gang was formed as a hardcore punk rock crew called Dogtown Hardcore (DHC) in the early 1980's by a group of local suburban teenagers, who were heavily influenced by the violent Southern San Andrean punk rock scene. They frequently clashed with other punk gangs out on the streets and music shows and had already gained a deadly reputation for their violent behavior. Through time, the gang developed into a skinhead gang and were highly prominent in the late 1990's. With most of the members getting lost in the loop of hard drugs, catching life sentences and ending up on state prison yards, flipping and dying to street violence, the new generation of the gang operates around tightknit areas, squathouses and gritty motels in the Vespucci Beach area of Los Santos, with their main criminal activities ranging from petty crime to methamphetamine sales, burglaries, robberies, and assaults.

Hate Fueled Joyride Rock Vespucci Beach March 12, 2023, 10:46 Written by Robert Grey Vespucci - A joyride turned into a nightmare for residents of Vespucci after a skinhead gang member went on a destructive rampage. Leo Mazza, a 21-year-old member of a local skinhead gang, drove through the streets of Vespucci, taking out street lights and driving over sidewalks in a meth-fueled frenzy. Mazza was eventually stopped by the Los Santos County Sheriff's Department, who had been alerted to his reckless driving by concerned residents. During the traffic stop, deputies discovered that Mazza was carrying a loaded handgun and an undisclosed amount of cocaine and pills. According to witnesses, Mazza was driving erratically, swerving in and out of traffic and narrowly avoiding other vehicles and pedestrians. He was seen driving onto the sidewalk, knocking over garbage cans and causing damage to storefronts. One resident, who asked to remain anonymous, said, "It was like something out of a movie. He was driving like a maniac, and we were all just trying to stay out of his way." Another witness, who also asked to remain anonymous, said, "It was terrifying. He was driving so fast, and I thought he was going to hit me. I'm just glad he's been caught." Mazza has been charged with a number of offenses, including reckless driving, possession of a loaded firearm, and possession of illegal drugs. He is currently being held in custody pending his arraignment. The incident has sparked outrage in the community, with many residents expressing their disgust at the actions of the skinhead gang member. "This kind of behavior is unacceptable," said one resident. "We need to come together as a community to stand up against hate and violence." The Los Santos County Sheriff's Department has vowed to continue to crack down on dangerous driving and gang-related activity in the area. "We will not tolerate this kind of behavior in our community," said a spokesperson for the department. "We will do everything in our power to keep our streets safe and to bring those responsible to justice."

As a second-generation Cambodian-American who has lived in Vespucci Canals since childhood, he has witnessed the harsh realities of living there, despite its visually appealing canals and grand homes. The area has been plagued by poverty and violence. Jayden's mother was a child during the Cambodian war, forced to flee with her mother to escape the violence. Unfortunately, Jayden's grandmother passed away when his mother was still very young, making it difficult for her to balance work, studies, and caring for Jayden as a single mother. As a result, Jayden rarely saw his mother in a positive light, as she was often stressed, complaining, and taking her frustrations out on him due to his father's absence. Feeling trapped, Jayden would escape the house as often as possible, spending time with local kids in the area and eventually forming their own crew. Initially, they simply represented TRS at school, but they soon progressed to tagging, and eventually tag-banging, which caused a host of new issues. Nowadays, Jayden's mother has little authority over him. He habitually disobeys her and continues to sneak out of the house whenever he pleases. TRS has become a major focus for him, and he has even ventured into new avenues to generate income for himself and his mother. His attendance at school has dwindled, and he engages in more physical altercations than ever before.

This thread showcases the life of one Vespucci local named Alvin Fowler. Alvin Fowler is one of the many representatives of White youth in the Vespucci area. Prone to getting involved with hard narcotics and violence at an early age, Alvin shoots his shot at trying to survive the vicious streets of gangland "Dogtown" and make a life for himself. A troubled home, an easy access to hardcore drugs and a neighborhood full of criminally motivated racist skinheads are what dictate how his life is going to go.

This thread will follow the life of Melissa Rizzo, a vespucci teenager involved in the local white pride scene. "They're interested in women because they see them as less likely to attract police attention and less likely to be police informers. Some of the leaders tell me if you recruit women, you get their kids and husbands, too." She says it wasn't really about racism for her, at least not in the beginning. "It was a displacement of my feelings. Like, Me being this way can't be my fault so it must be someone else's fault. The skinheads gave me a place where I could focus the rage and anger I was experiencing, there was a lack of connectedness in my family growing up, but the skinheads gave me a sense of unconditional belonging."
