- So, what do we have here?
- It's gang central, L.A. There's a big overlap out there of black, brown and a little white. There's three regular gangs and one made up of the gang rejects. That's what we call affirmative-action gangsters.
- Okay. And who does what?
- Well, over there, dope. Over there, weapons. And over there, car theft. Over there, more dope.

- NDs are the 19th Street Destroyers, the affirmative-action gang I was telling you about. They have a big chop-shop operation, mostly high-end car parts.
Je sais qu'affirmative-action signifie "discrimination positive", mais associé à des gangs et des gangsters, j'ai un peu de mal à comprendre le sens donné à cette expression ici. Ils n'agissent pas franchement pour le bien de la communauté, mais dans leur propre intérêt.
