I kinda agree wit Deadly Game...CRIP waz for tha community, an uprise...It was a positive thing...I don't wanna get into it...
But then again I do agree wit BigChill also...CIA or whoever else involved in tha higher power fueled it up and created tensions that made muthafucaz turn against each other so viciously...because of tha fact that a positive uprise in tha community means a loss 4 them...tha streets is alwayz going to be their terroritory as far as THEY are concerned...and there's no changin that...sorry 2 say...
And no, I aint no OG, but I have done my home work...

if you didn't know Stanley "Tookie" Williams who is on death row started the crips
The Beginning
In the spring of 1971, when Tookie was 16, he was in a very different situation. He was a high school student from South Central Los Angeles. He had a fearsome reputation as a fighter and as a "general" of South Central's west side. And, around that time, Tookie, along with Raymond Lee Washington, created what would one day be a super-gang, the Crips.
Back in the day when Tookie and Raymond founded the Crips, many of the young people of South Central Los Angeles were involved with small gangs. Those gang members roamed South Central taking property from anyone who feared them, including women and children. To protect the community, Tookie and Raymond organized the Crips.
Growth
By 1979, the Crips had grown from a small Los Angeles gang to an organization with membership spread across the State of California. By this time, Crips had also become just like the gang members they had once sought to protect themselves from -- Crips had become gangbangers who terrorized their own neighborhoods.
Soon the Crips lost both their leaders: in 1979, Raymond was murdered by a rival gang member, and, that same year, Tookie was arrested. He was charged with murdering four people. In 1981, Tookie was convicted of those crimes and placed on death row.
Life in Prison
In 1987, Tookie began what became a 6 1/2-year stay in solitary confinement. After two years there, Tookie began to look at himself. He focused on the choices he had made in his life and then committed himself to make a drastic change. The long, difficult process he undertook to rebuild his character put him in touch with his true spirit, his own humanity. Only then could Tookie finally begin to care about the many children, mothers, fathers and other family members of this country hurt by the Crips legacy and by its explosive growth. The gang is now in 42 states and on at least one other continent: South Africa. Youngsters in Soweto and other South African cities have formed the Crips copycat gangs

^I did in fact read that book and there are a few versions told by different OG's........but most of em tell the same story......the community revolution in progress is not bullshit......but there were so many hoods im sure there are arguments over which one started first....i will agree that the whole revolution concept went out the door and many hoods and sets turned Crips into a negative thing.......but what i speak is from knowledge on the streets and documentation...although a lotta books and stories exagerate shit......but il let you tell it BigChill cuz.....and ill take a mental note of your comments for future reference.....
