No. I was in Black Gangsta Disciple territory. Deep in it, so I was lucky. The Blackstone Rangers almost never came near my house. So, I imagine I heard fewer gunshots than those who lived a few miles north of me.
The only problem I had was my high school colors were red and white -- the colors of the Black Stone Rangers.
