History on SevSide 700 DOA. Since a lot of ya are confused on E 187 St & Arthur Ave ( Little Italy) in the bronx

Back in the 70-80’s the Sev was controlled by the Italian mafia some still have Business in the area but in the mid 90s Hispanics and blacks starts to move in .Most of the mobsters moved out of 187 and migrated into Morris Park/Pelham Parkway

By the early 2000’s the Sev (E 187 St) used to be bloody the fuck out especially E 187 st and Prospect St in the dead end of Dodge high school they was pushing E.H.B ( East Homicide Brim) at 1 point then got kicked out the whip and flip 5/9 Brim but in today date it’s a Mak Balla Family Hood it was a no crip zone at the time. Fun fact E 187 St (SevSide) use to beef with E 180 St ( Reyway) back in the days just because they was from the opposite street literally the only reason they was beefing . The locs couldn’t pass lorilland pl maybe even pass Hoffman st if the coast was clear but even than they was pushing there luck. Even 2 bodies ( Rip Muff and Ray) was dropped but that’s not for me to speak on. Reyway was pushing 180 Roc-A-Fella Gangstas Crip then change the name to East 1 Eight Owe Rocc Gang Neighborhood Crip they big homie got knocked and out of nowhere E 180 St spread into 187 out of no where . But nobody brings up the bodies just says rip and keeps it pushing.

Btw Reyway or the 80’s, Rollin 80’s is a homegrown Crip set that got sanctioned in Cali makin em one of the few bronx set stamped or recognize by the motherland

the E.N.T Crew was out there crazy deep as well such as 2 official Crew in Belmont Ave they will rock the pink,black,and glow in the dark beads. Ran but some Spanish nigga name K cash or K dot something like that and a black homie can’t seem to remember his name at the moment but seeing them on the little Italy fair with them beads stacked like a motherfucker I saw them chase a Crip nigga out the fair spainish cat with long hair no shirt and a blue flag on his left back pocket but I remember it so well cause he told me β€œexcuse me” in such a polite way when he was running and dodging them that stuck with me idk why but it did . 2.official crew eventually faded out like most ENT crews and turned into another crew named N.F.B (Niggas From Belmont/ Beaumont Rip Zully and Superbad) and they was beefing with Beaumont the next street over. And some time later they had some Puerto Rican over in Adams Pl (where junior the kid that was killed by the Dominican gang went to drop off 5 dollars to his friend) with a crew named E.B.U (Electric Boys United) they will go at it but E.b.u faded over time.

The True History of the Port Arthur Massacre

The Port Arthur Massacre changed Australia. We grew up hearing about it only in whispers. We understand the basics. But what really happened?

Well, here is a trailer for the first episode of my upcoming miniseries:

https://youtu.be/jOk1OOtTfFs

In association with Time Train Films, β€˜The True History of the Port Arthur Massacre’ has been written as a standalone documentary. A base to build upon.

This will be part documentary and part video essay dealing with the true crime genre and debunking conspiracy theories.

I discuss the events leading up to the massacre, the fallout, the media response, the gun control laws, and the trial. Consider this an educational resource with a considered irreverent sense of humour.

I have spent the past 6 months of my life researching, writing, fact-checking, filming, and editing this whole thing.
I hope you join me as we venture down the rabbit hole together. Please follow my YouTube Channel where I will release the entire thing. It would mean the world to me. Share if you are also inclined.

Early 20th century AFS History: a tale of a political pariah, corruption, electoral fraud, and a kidnapping that defined the century

This write-up covers the history of the Amerikaens Free State (AFS) immediately after independence (1903) until 1932. This is taken from the new lore written on the wiki page of the AFS. Feel free to ask any question you may have!

---

20th Century

Post Independence Political Situation

The political situation after the independence of the AFS was shaky after their independence. It is important to remember that before being a single sovereign state in 1903, the AFS consisted of two distinct semi-autonomous provinces within the Mexican Empire: Westerzee (not to be confused with the province of Westerzee, Tussenland) hugging the pacific coast, and KiemoeΓ«nim. They both had different legal systems. Westerzee had more democratic institutions like the Algemenhofs (created in 1870, also known as the Cortes-Generales, or the General Courts). KiemoeΓ«nim had no democratic legislative apparatus and instead had the Council of the People. Three-fourths of the seats were appointed by the governor and the other fourth by the Mexican resident delegate.

The seeds of independence were sown in 1894 when the separatist coalition party named the Amerikaner Integrity League (Amerikaens: Amerikaens Integriteytsbond) won the majority of seats in the Westerzee General Courts and denounced the increasing proselytization and encroachment of the Mexican Empire against the Protestant Amerikaners. Meanwhile, in Kimoeenim, the province was led by a pro-Mexican governor despite the majority Protestant population, which led to calls for a more democratic government.

When the Dutch-Mexican War erupted in 1901, the Dutch already had secret agreements with Westerzee's leader, Dirck Goudpaerdt, promising him independence from Mexico if they supported the Dutch. During the war, the central authority of KiemoeΓ«nim had disintegrated due to being cut off from the Mexicans. In its place, three regional factions had formed in the population centers of the north, south, and east (which later became the AFS provinces of KiemoeΓ«nim (retaining the old name), Bovenlandt, and Centraelia).

After the war, the Dutch facilitated dialogue between the four provinces (plus Westerzee) to draft a new constitution. An initial draft was finished in 1903, but due to conflicting interests between the provinces, a finished constitution would not be adopted until late 1904. Dirck Goudpaerdt became the first President of the AFS, and the count
