I don't know of any real big time gangs n west Pasco. West Pasco is pretty much low class rednecks and a drug dealer in 9 out of 10 homes. Most of the homes here are 2 bd room shoe boxes that are rented out to trash.

Here are a few documented gangs in West Pasco- these are active gangs that are involved in homicides that have occurred here recently, and are known to be active in narcotics and burglaries:
1) Latin Kings (all over east and west Pasco).
2) Valentine Bloods (Holiday/New Port Richey city limits)
3) Lake Boyz (Holiday Lake Estates)
4) West Pasco Crazy Crips (most members have been incarcerated and are serving lengthy prison terms)

There was a recent (within past year) homicide in Holiday that is still unsolved and believed to have ties to Latin King members. This stuff doesn't get out in the media too often, partly because gangs thrive on media attention...they don't disclose a lot of info so as to avoid proliferation of gangs through media exposure.

As long as the gangs kill each other then let em have it. It's the trashy renters that make this area so low class.

This is very true everywhere. And for how many violent crimes there are, many of those also don't reach the media. Across the street from my place in Denver there was a robbery/double shooting (I know because I heard the gunshots and got questioned by the cops a couple hours later). Yet, a week later and there was no mention of it on the news, in newspapers, or even (get this) in the Denver PD service call stats which are updated daily!

By "crew," do you mean the rest of the kids that sit at your 10th grade lunch table back at dear old Gulf High? Or perhaps you mean the kids that hang around the Embassy 6 movie theater?

Oh my, he really scared me. I think when I go to work today off Ridge and 19 I will take the long way around to get there, maybe by way of Land O Lakes instead of down 19. And forget ever getting out of my car at 7-11 or Dunkin Donuts, I'll never do that again on my way to work.
