The bewildering elements that sparked the powder keg of LA street gang violence are meticulously uncovered in the film, Lay Down Old Man. A two-film-in-one documentary about the history of the Bloods and the Crips, it provides a connecting history of the rival gangs as told by two of its respective founding members.

Moinsen Junkens, wie schaumer aus? Heute habe ich mal die Bildschirmlupe eingeschaltet und ich muss sagen, so gehts ganz gut. Auch voll schön mal wieder HTML Tags zu benutzen und in so ein kleines, schrubbliges HMTL Formular zu schreiben. Irgendwie süß. Aber: es geht heute um was ganz anderes. In eigener Sache. ...
