I have heard so many times that there are lots of Hispanic gangs that target black people. I am curious to know the name of the gang, and why do they feel so much hatred against us? I seriously want to know.

Savage, if you didn't want to answer MY question, you could have just went on to another one. My question was about hispanic gangs, not black ones.

Of course I have heard of it being in California, but I recently found out there were some not too far from me. I stay in Metro Atlanta, and I have heard that there are lots of gangs in Gwinnett county that target blacks..
And to the other young lady, no need to apologize, you aren't the one doing it.
Let me say this too, I am concerned with all violence, no matter what race it is. I just wanted to know more about this hispanic gang..I was really just curious

You might be referring to an urban legend that's been going around for about a year or so about the Salvadoran gang Mara Salvatrucha (MS 13). The legend says that they target black women to murder for their initiation http://www.snopes.com/crime/gangs/memphis.asp
This is untrue. I think this started because of the conflict and gang wars between the Black gangs that have controlled the urban areas and the Hispanic gangs that are beginning to gain control.
If you are not involved with gangs or crime or affiliated with people in that type of lifestyle, you won't have a problem. Blacks and Hispanics generally get along very well together. I have been with my Salvadoran bf for over 6 years, and most of my friends are Salvadoran, Honduran, and Mexican, I have never had a problem with Hispanics.

I have not heard of a Hispanic gang that specifically targets black people.
There are gangs like the Mexican Mafia , Mara Salvatrucha or MS-13 who do target black gang members specifically.
I think it is more about who controls criminal enterprises in prison and on the street rather than race.
It's just another excuse for violent people to kill each other.

I've never heard of that. I apologize if there really is one.
Edit:
I know i'm not the one doing it but if there really is a "hispanic" gang out there targettin african americans then i feel really bad that they are creating such hate between two races that could be friendly to each other.

Its probably nothing personal its just business. Since so many loser gangbangers are black the mexicans probably just want to take their business. Mexicans that come here to run their gangs and basically ruin the US are trashy people with no respect for anything but themselves. They are not here to contribute to society. They are simply here to get away with as much as they can before being shipped back to the outhouse they grew up in. I hate gangs and gangbangers. All of them should be shipped out to sea. Rather see them sink than see them drag everybody around them down.

I've never heard such a thing. Most street gangs target their own race or ethnicity for their elicit behavior!

It is safe to say that ALL mexican and some salvadorean gangs target and kill black people, REGARDLESS OF GANG AFFILIATION. DONT BELIEVE THE LIES THAT ITS ONLY GANG AFFILIATED! A name? thats hard beause there are too many to name.
Below me, what the hell are you talking about. Smart blacks are against Illegals. Research the march we just had a couple weeks ago in LA.
