tagging

[jamesgeologist]

I know a lot of you folks don't live in the most desirable neighborhoods so I wanted to ask if there is anyone that recognizes this tag....

 

[solidfrontaxle]

Is that inside your office?!

 

[muleskinner]

I believe Bears are responsible for that marking. I would paint over it today, and put one of these in the ground tonight. Did I mention how much I HATE taggers?

well, norte is north in spanish so it's likely a hispanic gang. (I know, big stretch there ) Have you called the local gang unit, they could probably tell you right off all you would want to know about it.

Spanish especially because they crossed the 7 which is more than common.

The Nortenos are one of the Ogden gangs.. there are Norteno chapters all over the West, spreading out of CA.. So, I would guess that's some douchebag Norteno marking "his" turf. I don't know what the rest of it means.
I went to an FBI seminar on gangs and domestic terrorists a few years ago (yes, that was pretty nerve-wracking for me LOL ) and the Nortenos and MS13 are a couple of the groups they have eyes on out here.

edit: here's a little blurb on them: http://idahogangs.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=blogcategory&id=19&Itemid=247

Hey! I cross all my 7's.

 

[Tacoma]

So do I... but I picked up the habit from my 7th grade Spanish teacher.

 

[jdub]

I do mine from living in central america

I've never seen that ever associated with any kind of Latino/Hispanic background. I cross my sevens and I have zero influence, nor have I ever, from any kind of Spanish background. Where did you hear that?

 

[jamesgeologist]

Well, no it is not "inside" my office. It is across the street in my neighborhood. we live between 25th and 26th street which is north of 27th. I knew "Norte" is north and there is a gang component called the Norteño or Nortenos. We haven't seen this or any type of tagging on our street in the past, so I thought I would throw it out to RME.

Members of the Norteño gang - which uses "Norte" as an identifier - wear red. Not sure about the 27 though....

I knew Tacoma would chime in. He's trying to direct attention away from his ninja gang!

I cross my sevens as well but I got it from the military when I was in the communications unit....

I also cross my Z's as well... and put a slash threw my 0 too...

You werent' supposed to talk about my ninja gang, that was the condtion of letting you live. Sorry bro, loose lips sink ships.... we'll make it painless and fast for you.

 

[jamesgeologist]

The first rule of ninja gang is that you do not talk about ninja gang.

A "tag" recently showed up on my wife's office (in the Orem hood). The local PD came out that day, took some pictures of it, and sent someone out that cleaned and painted over it a few days after that....

I also cross z's and 7's- Picked it up from ze germans
