^there's definitely some towns in eastern washington that have potential to be gang havens...
hell, where i go to school, in we got 4 police depts...campus, city, county, and state...and there's still not that many cops...they're always in the same area so when you see them it seems like there's a lot of em...but they've only got like 5 cars for the city out at a time, same with campus and the county is smaller...
but there's small towns outside the place i'm at...and there's all of like 3-4 police...you could do anything you fucking wanted in a place like that.
