The Resume

    Formed in Chicago, Illinois
    Original Latin Kings
    Almighty Latin King Nation (ALKN) formed in Rikers Island, New York
    Colors are black and gold
    Featured in HBO's 'Latin Kings: A Street Gang Story' documentary
    Located throughout the United States, most specifically: Chicago, New York City, Miami, Detroit and New Jersey
    Rival gangs include the Bloods, Crips, Delray Mafia, Detroit Kings, the Cobras, Vice Lords, 5 Point Star People Nation and many more

Why The Latin Kings might be annoying:

    The hurt and kill innocent people.
    They segregate themselves from whites and blacks.
    They are one of the fastest growing gangs in New York City.
    In addition to recruiting males, they also make an attempt to recruit females (who are referred to as 'Queens').
    Some Latin Kings are based out of Wisconsin.
    Many of them show their affiliation by getting 'LK,' or 'ALKN' tattooed on themselves.
    They are involved in the selling of drugs and trafficking of weapons.

Why The Latin Kings might not be annoying:

    They share the same colors with the New Orleans Saints.
    Many of them wear religious medallions of the Virgin Mother.
    They aren't considered as notorious or violent as the Bloods or Crips.
    Jon Alpert, who directed 'Latin Kings: A Street Gang Story,' spent over a year with them unscathed.
