Bloods

Introduction
Bloods are one of the most notorious gangs in the world!  Bloods was created so certain gangs wouldn't get beat up by Crips.  Pirus created the Bloods Alliance.  Other gangs joined the Bloods Alliance later.  There are many sets of Bloods.  A lot of people became members of the Bloods when crack became popular.   There are members of this gang in the military.

Bloodology
The color of their clothes is red.  They like to wear clothes for different sports teams.  They like the # 5 and 5 pointed stars.  They are a member of People Nation.  They have gang signs and sometimes they disrespect other gangs by drawing their symbol upside down.  They call themselves CK (Crip Killer), MOB (Member of Bloods), dogs, and ballers.  Bangin means batting other sets or gangs. Bloods gang members aren't supposed to kill innocent people.  If they do they'll be murdered. Sometimes they speak to each other in Kiswahili.  They have their own body language.  

History
Bloods was created in Compton, California.  Pirus created the Blood Alliance.  The Athens Park Boys, Pueblos, Black P Stones, Brimms, and other gangs joined the Bloods Alliance.  The Pirus were a Crip gang until other Crips killed an innocent person.  The Pirus broke away with the Crips Alliance and went war with Crips.  The Bloods decided to use the color red because they opposed the Crips that use the color blue.   Some of the gangs in the Blood Alliance use other colors instead of red.  Banners are alliances between gangs within the Blood Alliance.  Any gang can become a blood set by joining Blood Alliance. Bloods protect their hood from other gangs.  That's why they were created.

Bloods and Crips became friends after the Rodney King verdict.  Their color was purple.  Cops stole a Crip car and did a drive-by on Bloods.  Bloods thought the Crips did it so they started bangin on them.
