L.A. Gangs’ Hashtag Bet: Kill 100 People in 100 Days

The Daily Beast

 "Under the hashtag #100Days100Nights, users on Instagram and Twitter are issuing a stark warning: Two Los Angeles gangs are betting which one can kill 100 people—in a gang, or innocent—within the next 100 days.

"A law enforcement source confirmed the reports exclusively to The Daily Beast on Monday night.

"The bet—which follows the death of “KP,” a member of the Rollin 100 gang—was allegedly made last week.

"Gang members say it will remain “on” for 100 days straight—and innocent people driving between the streets of Western and Normandie in Los Angeles could be risking their lives over a game on Twitter." . . .
 
 Is Los Angeles some kind of "sanctuary city" for illegal immigrants? People on all sides of the debate like to think so. Those who want to protect the immigrants and their families use the term with a certain bravado, as if to stress that their city has adopted a firm and unique moral stance.
