Joe leans forward, lowering his voice like he’s explaining the rules of the street.
“Nel, the EU family isn’t about running the streets,” he says. “It’s about protecting our own. From anybody who thinks they can push people around — governments, gangs, whoever.”
Nelly folds her arms. “Alright then, Don Joe. Who exactly are these people you’re protecting everyone from?”
Joe shrugs and starts listing them like a street encyclopedia.
“Look, there’s the Red Scorpions, the United Nations gang, and the Wolfpack Alliance around here in B.C.
Then globally you’ve got the Hells Angels, the Triads, the Big Circle Boys, the La Cosa Nostra, and the La Eme.
He keeps going.
“You’ve got prison gangs like the Aryan Brotherhood and the Black Guerrilla Family.
Street crews like the Bloods and the Crips, the Latin Kings, and groups like the Viet Ching.”
Nelly watches him finish the list and then bursts out laughing.
“Joe… that’s basically every gangster movie ever.”
Joe shrugs. “Exactly. Big world, lots of players.”
Nelly pats him on the shoulder with a grin.
“Good job, Joe. Now your EU family can’t get taxed.” 😄💸
